 CHARGES MADE
 AGAINST DiAZ AND
 HIS FOLLOWERS.

It is charged that Diaz uses the power of his military and political forces in controlling elections, smothering the voice of the people in the selection of public officials and filling the offices to suit his own wishes,
 It is charged that Diaz uses the powers of his office to en- rich the coffers of himself and friends.
 He is charged with practi- cally selecting Governors of States and legislative repre- sentatives, regardless of the wishes of the people. z
 He and his associates gre charged with muzzling the press and imprisoning editors who dare to criticize the de- partments of the Government.
 Diaz is charged with being a military autocrat, President in name, but an absolute mon arch in fact, who rules more Nt6OiOuSis anu ulOIt uhtOLii- promisingly than Czar, with out regard for the Constitution or the rights of the people.
 Governors of States are charg- ed with taking for their own all the profitable resources of the commonwealth, while their con- stituents are little more than slaves, who are compelled to work for pittance which barely supports them.
 Suppression of news deroga- tory to the interests of the Diaz governments; unjust i'm prisonment of members of the Liberal party who express their sentiments through the col umns of the press and by word of mouth, and even the slay- ing of persons of opposite poli- tical faith, are crimes laid at the door of the Diaz ring.

EDITOR ASSASSINATED.

EDITOR ASSASSINATED.
 One Liberal editor, who moved to Laredo. Tex, after having been i'm prisoned and then exiled from Mexico, was assassinated by two Hurdles after he had begun the publication of q newspaper antagonistic to the Diaz politics.
 "Diaz does not know and never has countenanced opposition, He rules with an iron hand and will stop at nothing when he starts to exterminate | his enemies. It is matter of abso- | lute record in Mexico. although the press of United States never learned the fact, that regiment of Mexican soldiers attacked convention of Lib- | erals near Monterey a few years ago and killed and maimed 250 persons. The news of this slaughter was sup pressed by Mexican officials.
 "The outside world believes that | Diaz is reelected because he is loved l hy the people. This is not the condi- tion at all. Diaz is reelected because his own political ring rules and dom- mates the elections. And the people are too poor and ignorant to make a formidable showing against the pow CTS. - l Mexico is rich in resources, but the people do not profit by it. Only the l fattened officials at the public trough get the benefits. The Governors of the States are not servants of the people, but owners of the people, and the Governors do as Diaz dictates. Luis Terrazas, the Governor of Chin uahua. is practically the owner of the 1 state. Chihuahua is as great in area as the Republic of France, and has a population of about 300,0 900. Every thing in the State belongs to Terra gas. Practically the entire popula- ton work for him. He controls the farms, the stores. the banks, the mines and the local railroads.
 i OUT-HERODS TRUSTS.
 Your Beef Trust and Steel Trust and various other great commercial combinations pale into utter insignifi- .-cance when compared with the mon- arch of Chihuahua, who rules every thing.
 All the Governors of Mexican States present similar conditions. al though situations not so astounding as the one In Chihuahua. Diaz himself is a millionaire many times over. and has accumulated his money at the ex- pense of the people.
 "He owns millions in European secu- rites and has curried favor with for eign representatives by presenting them with rich lands and mineral
 grants which should belong to the peo- l.,1f.

ST. LOUIS, June 9.-The charge that the strike riots at the Greene Copper mine at Cananea, Old Mexico, were melted by a revolutionary body which has it's headquarters in St. Louis information of which was forwarded to the State Department by United States Minister Thompson, has prac- tically been verified by statements made by members of the Junta in this city
 While disclaiming that they are in any way revolutionary body. Antonio l. yiIlareal, secretary of the Junta, says that the St. Louis organization represents the Liberal party in Old Mexico, and that the Regeneration. the newspaper printed here for the Liber- al party, exposed the methods employ ed in the copper mines at Cananea and urged the abused workmen to retail ate.
 As g representative of the Liberal party of Old Mexico, MT. Villareal speaks freely and scathingly of Pres ident Diaz and his coterie, which he asserts absolutely control Old Mexico and the 100000 persons within its borders
 ''The United States" said Mr. Will areal, ''cries against graft and the trusts, but this country has no great CT grafter or no trust magnate who can equal the President of the Mexican Government. He is a military despot monarch more absolute than the Czar.
 He has the country and the people absolutely under his thumb. He dis regards the provisions of the Consti tuition, and practically re-elects him self to the presidency.

MEXICO RING-RIDDEN.
 Mexico is dominated by a small ring of politicians, of which Diaz is the head. It is Diaz who dictates the election of Governors and Represents tives. The people have no voice in l the proceedings.
 1 Officials have waxed and grown fat at the public crib. The Governors have been made rich. They have made their families and their particu' | lar friends rich, while the poor peons ! have been compelled to work for a i beggarly pittarce and remain in ignor- ance.
 'The Liberal party movement is an i educational enterprise. We are try | ing to teach our people what they should do. We are trying to teach selves and demand fair treatment from
 their employers.
 The treament accorded the Mexican llaborers in the mines at Cananea has been unjust, and the Mexican officials not Colonel Greene, are responsible Greene was willing to pay the Mexican liaborers wages as good as those paid Americans, but the Mexican Governor
 and his clique saw danger. in this. Ii l would mean that the Mexican peasant would leave the farm, where the Mexi
 can. employer pays from 25 to 50 cents
 a day, and seek employment in tht mines. where he could get two and three times as much salary.
 'The low salary in the mines is tht result of official influence brought tC bear on the American mine owners
 Mexican officials have used their off cial power-their friendship with Dia; Las q means of keeping the wage standard down to the minimum. !. These facts have been set dowr
 from time to time in the Regeneration our newspaper. which was confscateS in the nlothe- country. but which ross again on American free soil. and whicl is doing, under difficulties. the work O

CREMATORY CONTRACT.
Commissioner Noonan Could Not Get
 Former Vote Rescinded.

NOtC ItCSCAuut5us
 Commissioner Noonan is not at all pleased over the fact that M. J. Daly & Sons did not get the contract to erect the new stack at the crematory and last night moved that the action of the board of health at Its last meeting, when M. E. Keeley was awarded the job, be rescinded. He claimed that the Daily firm had not been treated fairly, and Edward Daly, one of the members of the company said that their bid was really $1.650 and that the additional $120 had been sent in at the request of Commissioner Fitzpatrick for an chor plates. etc.
 Commissioner Fitzpatrick did not see things through the same glass As Commissioner Noonan and denied that he ever told MT Daly to send in Q, bid of $120 for anchor plates, etc. He asserted that he did say that the plates and bolts were not called for in the contract. He told the same thing to Mir Keeley.
 The other members of the board did not take any part in the discus sion and when MT Noonan's vote was finally put only two voted the first time. Noonan with loud Yes voted to have the action rescinded, while Fitzpatrick in his military voice almost shook the windows with his No" President Freney called for another vote and again Drs Bland and Hungerford did not have a word to, say. On the third call Bland, Hungerford and Fitzpatrick voted No" while MT Noonan was alone as he answered Yes"

NEW CANINE LAW.
All Dogs Must Be Chained Up for the
 Next Six Weeks.

At a special meeting of the board of health last evening it was voted to have the mayor issue an order compelling all dogs to be chained or tied up for the next six weeks. Tn order to lessen the number of cases of rabies in the city.
 About three months ago the health board and the mayor became alarmed over the number of mad dogs in the city and issued an order that all ca hines should be muzzled for six weeks. But the muzzles which were used by the majority were of little use and consequently. although the order has been on much longer than 1t was expected, 1t has accomplished very little good.
 Last night all of the members of the board seemed to be of the opin- ion that it would be wise, especially since the hot weather was coming. to have the CUTS tied up in their own back yards for six weeks at least.
 pr Bland said that within the last two days he had killed eight dogs suffering from the rabies and ne thought the situation was alarming. As all the commissioners had the idea that the tying up of the dogs would be a good thing it was finally voted to have the mayor issue the order. Dr Bland also stated that the people should keep an eye on their dogs. as a mad dog is liable to chew his way through anything.

BURPEE BREAKS IN
THOUGHT BROTHER ATTORNEY
 HAD MADE A BLUNDER.
Succeeded in Having Expert Evidence Stricken Out-Later Withdrew
 His Objection.

The trial of Bessie Coffey's suit against the trolley company took a peculiar turn this afternoon. Col onel Burpee, counsel for the defense, was called into the case only last evening and this afternoon 1t sud- denly dawned upon him that Attor- ney Hincks who had charge of the case made serious blunder in ad- hitting certain paragraph in the complaint which said that 1t was the dutw of the company to provide it's cars with air brakes or some other appliance by which a car could be stopped almost instantly.
 Several employees of the company had testified that they found in their experience in one capacity and an other on electric roads air brakes were not absolutely necessary to stop a car. It was then Colonel Burpee found out the greyious admission in the company's defense. Judge Reed ruled out the evidence of the expert employees of the company and then Colonel Burpee moved for leave to amend his answer. Attorney Cassidy, counsel for the plaintiff objected. The court ruled for the defense, how ever, remarking that he would allow Attorney Cassidy any reasonable time to prepare to meet the amendment. Colonel Burpee maintained that Att torney Cassidy could never, even if he searched the world, find the evil dence he said he could, and counsel for plaintiff assured him he was mis- taken. Finally, Colonel Burpee said that rather than delay the trial he would withdraw his ruling granting the motion and the case proceeded.

TIRED OF BUSINESS
MORMON CHURCH TO SELL OUT
 ITS HOLDINGS.
Utah Light 6 Railway Co Taken Over by Capitalists Backed bv
 S25.OOO.OOO of Stock.

Salt Lake, May 17.--The Mormon church is going out of business, ac- cording to local morning paper.
 It's principal holding in Salt Lake. the Utah Light and Railway Co. is 10 be taken over by a $25,000, ,000 cor |poration, composed of English and
 American capitalists. The new com pany will also acquire the Ogden Street Railway and build an electric line from Juab county, Utah, to Oneda county, Idaho. It will be
 known as the Intermountain Consoli- dated Railroad Go and will be incor- porated both in Utah and Idaho. The

 D'Oissel, Paris; Sir Thomas Jackson,
 London; William G. Rathbone, Mall chester, England; Alexander McKen- zie, Ottawa, Canada; Henry Dupont,
 Paris; Beresford Hope, London, and a. number of Utah men, among them
 Governor John c. Cutler. The en- terprise will be financed through the

 Simultaneously the announcement is made that the Salt Lake and Los
 Angeles, another. church property, has been sold to a local syndicate for $500,00O. This road is thirteen
 miles in length and runs from the city to the lake. President Joseph F. Smith of the Mormon church is quoted as saying that the divorce of religion from business Is made on ac-
 count of the fact that the MormOns
 whom the church sought to protect years ago no longer need the protec- tion of the church in business af- fairs. The church entered business
 to assist converts and strangers be-
 longing to the church, but as they
 are now on a firm footing the church
 withdraws from business entirely. If this policy is completely carried out the sale of the traction interests
 will be followed by the sale of stocks
 In banks, sugar factories. the great z. c. M. I. department store and
 many smaller enterprises. It will
 work commercial revolution which will profoundly affect the political and social life of the state.

EYE KNOCKED OUT
w00DBURY GIRL MEETS WITH
 BAD ACCIDENT.

 Sustained Broken Leg.

Woodbury, Conn, May 17.-A ser ious runaway occurred here to-day in which Mrs George Means and the 14 year old daughter of Harry Barnes q farmer, were painfully injured. Mrs Means and the Barnes girl were driy- ing in one of Barnes milk wagons when the horse took fright at some cans along the road side. The horse bolted up the street and in turning a corner the occupants of the wagon were thrown out on pile of stone. The Barnes girl had one of her eyes knocked out and her head was badly cut and Mrs Means sustained brok- en leg and also a badly bruised head. They were taken to their homes and probably will recover.
