MATTERS of church discipline
and policy were discussed by
Bishop Thomas b. Neeley in his
annual address to the Methodist
Episcopal conference at Newark,
N. J., recently. The address con-
tanned reproof for trustees OF
churches who persisted in en-
deavors to interfere with meth
DDS of worship, something which,
the bishop declared, was beyond
their proper function. "Sensa-
tionalism" in the pulpit also was
condemned by the Bishop. what

as to his itinerary on his western

Los Angeles and is said to be consd-

days at the Grand Canyon which
makes it certain that he will make
the trip east over the Santa Fe. a
trip which will be scenically much
more attractive than the southern
route and which will avoid the blis-

deserts at a season when that region
is most uncomfortable.
The plan to visit the Grand Can

known to be enthusiastically anxious
to see, has practically been decided
upon, it Is said.

liable condition from the hardships
endured on a desert island in the
Tres Marias group without food or
water for several days, seventeen sur
vivors of the crew of the gasoline
launch Charles Cansan, were landed
at san Bias. according to dispatches
from the chief of police of that place,
One of the crew died of starvation.
The survivors were brought to San
Bias on the steamer Union arriving
yesterday morning at 1 o'clock. They
had been picked up on one of the
islands in pitiable condition. The
explosion took place some days ago
between the Tres Maras and Cabo
Corrientes and was attributed to the
dynamite becoming ignited from a
gasoline stank that had taken fire
The crew escaped when the fire oc-

MEETING TO

bIo M MUHsty BuIIuInB,
Washington. ID. c.. July G


When President Taft and President
Diaz shake hands across the border
between the two countries. some time
next fall, il Is likely there Will come
an era of better feeling between the
United States and Mexico than there
has been since long before the DAYS
when old Sam Houston held forth
down toward sthe Rio Grande and ex-
tracted an empire from the Mexican
government
Preliminary negotiations relative to
the meeting have been entered into
President Taft is anxious to meet
President Diaz. and this Information
has been conveyed to the venerable
head of the Mexican republic, and he
wants to see Mr.. TAFT, for whom he
has conceived a high admiration The
meeting will be in no sense political,
although it will no doubt have
large effect on the commercial and
other relations of the republics
When President Taft returns east
from the Pacific coast he will go
through New Mexico and Texas.
About this time General Diaz will be
making tour of northern Mexico
The town of El Paso Is the sue
cessful candidate for the honor.
When the meeting is held il is need
less to say there will be great doings
along the border, while FL Paso will
put on its best hat and fresh
billed" shirt.
The relations between the two eoun-
tries are already good, and have been
improving. The visit OF Elihu Root
to Mexico no doubt did a great deal
in helping relations The parts the
two nations have taken in co-opera-
tion in Central American troubles have
tended to daw them togethe. Ameri-
can investments I'm Mexico are in
creasing at an enormous rate, and
Diaz has encouraged them. Far-see-
ing statesmen perceive that when
President Diaz is gone II may require
n strong hand to maintain law and
order. and 1t is not at all unlikely the
United States will be called on to ex-
ercise a restraining influence so that
these immense investments may be
duly protected.
Stil another phase OF the cultiva-
tion OF good relations with Mexico
has to do with the Latin-Ameriean
situation generally The more the re-
lations between the United states ana
Mexico approach the point of cordial |
ity, the less suspicion VIII South |
America have of the United States,
and the more will it be possible to
promote trade and friendship.
