CURTIS GUILDS TOAST.
BOstOnian's Praise of DIaE as ..Great-
est Living American"

From the Chicago Post
ITO the greatest living American-Gen.
POFhrio Disz''
This toast was offered ar the Mexican
centennial celebration in the City Of Mex
leo by Mr.. Carts Guild, jr. Of Massachu-
setts, special ambassador from the United
States.
All through Europe the title Of great
est living American" was unstintedly be-
slowed upon Theodore Roosevelt. And
ex-Gov. Guild is himself a strong pro-
Roosevelt man. That he should exalt Diaz
above the colonel is not the result either
Of careIessness or Of personal dislike. He
meant what he said
II is not our desire, however. 10 insist
that Mr.. Roosevelt has a mortgage upon
the greatest living" Americanship He
can pretty we'll take care Of himself in
this and any other respect.
But We do feel that even the conven-
t!onalities of ambassadOrial expression.
the amenities Of international celebration.
hardly justified Mr.. Guild in bestowing
upon President Diaz this title OF superla-
tive praise. Taking the old Mexican at
Ills btSt, uisuttltNlilk the extreme charges
Of 'barbarous Mexico" and giving full
value 10 his services III establishing sta
bility of government it is yet clear to the
most superficial student that the republic
10 the south of US is a republic in name
only, and that the man who holds il in
his iron grip is neither republican nor
American in his thoughts, sympathies
and actions Mexico to-day is autocrati-
caliy governed by a financial ring OF
which the President is the head
Here lies our objections to Ambassador
Guilds superlative DiaZ is not the ideal
American type. He stands for the direct
opposite of 'liberte. egalite, fraternite -
II is not right that he should be held up
before the world by a representative OF
the United States as the greatest OF us
all Nor is it true Leaving Mr. Roose-
Welt completely out OF IL, il is clear that
there are men on this continent that far
surpass Porfrio Diaz in pure ability. As
organizer. financier. or master of men,
can ne match Mr. Rockefeller, Mr.. Carne-
gle, or Mr. Morgan?

OF the word boss Roosevelt, at the last
State convention, was the choice Of the
majority of the Republican voters OF the
State OF New York The people elected
him and his men; that is why he directed
the affairs Of the convention At Saratoga
'"rhe majority Of the delegates VINO
were elected by the voters were on his
side. He did not proclaim himself boss,
like Chief Murphy, who is really a po-
litical boss. The people have absolutely
no say in the election of the chief OF
Tammany, and he is. therefore, a boss.
And this boss is now debating 70 the
Democratic voters of the State OF New
York whom he wants elected governor.
Murphy, Of Tsmmany. dictates the cleo
tion Of the governor; not the Democratic
State convention. The difference between
boss rule and party rule is drawn quite
distinctly in this case"

Double Drowning
near JAMESTOWN

Jamestown, N. D., July IA sad
double drowning occurred near Sykes
ton, Monday, of this week, in the
Pipestem river, two little girls, Mag
gle Otto and Leona Renbolt, aged Is
to II respectively, stepping into a
deep hole, while bathing near dam
in the stream and drowned in the
view of their comrades. Relatives
were called to Sykeston by the sad
accident, from the Adventist camp
meeting, which they were attending
at Jamestown.
Together with number of other
children, the two little girls were
bathing in wide place in the stream
caused by a dam, some distance from
the rest, when the younger, Leona,
stepped into the hole. She screamed
for help when she rose, and Maggie
Otto went to her aid. The struggling
girl caught her, however, and pulled
her into the hole also. BY this time
all the children had reached the spot
and third girl, Matilda Beetz, tried
to save the two, but the frightened
girls almost dragged her into the hole
by their frantic struggles, and tore
her skirt off before she could escape.
The two, Leona and Maggie, were
drowned in sight of their comrades.
Their bodies were recovered half al
hour later by their parents. Maggie
is the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. John
Otto and Leonas parents are Mr.. and
Mrs. Adam Rembolt. The funeral was
held Tuesday.

Attending CIRCUS
CAUSED A MURDER

Granville, N. D., July 1.-Arthur r.
Price, young farmer living near this
city, was murdered last night by his
fatherin-law, James Donnelly, seem
ingly in self defense.
The facts in the case have not as
yet been fully developed, but it ap-
pear that Mrs. Price went in to the
circus at Granville against her hus-
bands wishes. She returned with the
women members of the family, Mr..
Donnelly catching a ride with another
farmer as far as Prices. Upon ar
irving at the house he found it dark
and when he called, Price threatened
him with bodily harm.
He demonstrated and started to
leave, but was followed by his SON.

Donnelly got the club and in the me-
lee which followed struck blow that
killed Pride.
Donnelly walked into town and
gave himself up.
The community is intensely excited
