good in the individual sense. His loric development pays little beed to that. But good in the sense of advancing the progress of the race.
 It is significant of this, that the revolution which forced President Disz to resign was of a very different character from that which placed Diaz in power. After all it was pretty neally peaceful re- vOlution which overthrow the late Mexican government. The pheno. menon was noted, and at first marveled at, that with serious fight. ing going on in only remote province, the government at the center was imp )tent and trembling. In finally collapsed under apparent disasters which did not equal alto gether the burning of Bangor, Maine, and the casualties of three months on American railways.
 The real disaster was the state of public opinion. Potential armed force in opposition throughout all the country there undoubtedly was. But public opinion so strong and so general that it did not need 10 take up many arms to put out tn soldiers who had helped take Mex ico from France-and had gradual ly turned it over to the privileged few.

The Passing of Oisx.
tGusdslsjsrs Times

A man on horseback rode into the City of Mexico one day in November almost thirty five years ago, and people thronged their hOusetOps, ihe streets and the plazas to cheer for him. The same man, now 8l years old, white haired and bowed in humiliation, left the City of Mexico at daylight a few mornings ago and fled to Veracruz, the same city from which he set out on his triumphal march that November day in 1876. From Veracruz he sailed Wednesday for the old Continent. His is the tragedy of the leader who has lived too long. The mans name is Por- 6rio Diaz. Today there Is a new man on horseback in Mexico, whose appearance rouses the same wild ''vivas" that greeted Diaz thirty-6ve years ago.
 While President Diaz did really rule, he did also really serve. His service ended years ago-except that the fruits of it continued to grow in spite of him. The old statesman was outgrOwn. The ancient disease of suiocIats-lhe bad counsel of favOritps-destroyed his usefulness. He did not realize that the very agencies of modern progress which he had patriOticsl- yl fostered rnade the old ieudal privileges impossible. Schools and at least the principle of ire bal Int PorfiriO Diaz had esta blished. He had fine visions of his country's greatness. He encouraged material development. He let into the country and favored foreigners Americans especially-who were accustomed 10 democracy and talk ed il. All these things conspired against the evils of his reign. advisedly, this reign" In the perspective of history Diaz will stand not only as an indiSputably great man but as a good man. Not

WHAT is BAY RuM9
Supreme Court May Investigate, Pend

ing ak Levy.
Washington, Oct. 4.--After all these
years the supreme court OF the United
States may be required to give a ju-
dieial holding as to what is bay rum
The government recently contended
in levying a tax on bay rum from Por-
to Rico that it was distilled spirits"
and should pay an excise tax just as
alcohol manufactured in the United
States proper.
The United States circuit court Of
appeals for the second circuit, In a
statement growing out of a contest
over the governments attempt to tax
the bay rum, said that 1T was con-
ceded upon the argument that bay
rum is approximately half alcohol
and half water. made fragrant by a
small amount Of the oil or essence of
the bay leaf"
This did not suit the importers and
the court Of appeals amended its state
ment. The amended statement still
failed to satisfy. and the importers
have now asked the supreme court to
look into the whole matter itself rather
than take the statement of the lower

CATHOLICISM GAINS GROUND.
Church in U. S. in 10Th Century Won
22,46O.OOO Converts

GEfTOOfOOO SOHNClNS.
Rome. oct. 24,-Stradelli. a we'll
known Italian statiscian. has just
issued an interesting collection of sta
tlstics showing the progress of Roman
Catholicism during the nineteenth CEN
tury Even allowing for the increase
of population, Stradelll argues that the
church is rapidly gaining ground in
every corner of the Christian world.
England not counting Iredan. had
10000 Catholics in 1900 and 100000
in 1900, he figures from returns made to
the Vatican. In Germany the number
rose from 100000 to more than 2O,-
100000, and in Holland from 100000 to
l, 500, 900.
Statistics are wanting for Russia,
but Stradelli points to the number of
conversions I'm the five years from
1905 to 1910. the last recorded. The
total is said to be 100000 In Africa
there were only few Catholics in
1900. but the new century opened with
$50, 900.
But IL Is in the United States that he
finds the most remarkable growth of
Catholicism. He states that during
the century the number of Catholics
in America increased from 10000 to
more than 22,500O0O.
The development i'm Australia is also
striking. At the opening of the last
century the Roman church had not
single adherent on the southern conti-
nent. while at its close she counted
1 600, 900 members there.

HINES MAKES A DENIAL.
Declares He Had Nothing to do With
Stephenson Election.

Milwaukee, Wis. oct. 24-Edward
Hines, the millionaire lumberman, de-
MED before the senatorial investigating
committee yesterday that he had had
anything to do with the election of
Senator Isaac Stephenson. Mr.. Hines
denial covered the following:
That he went to Washington and
there told Senator Stephenson that
because Of charges of corruption made
in the Legislature. the senator could
not be re-elected.
That to overcome this obstacle he
entered into an agreement whereby he
and Stephenson each contributed $55.-
900, which resulted in an election by
the Wisconsin legislature on March
A. 1909. after three democratic assem-
blymen had absented themselves.
That he paid Robert ]. Shields 81
500 to help put over" the election.
Did you ever assist in, or receive
any benefit from the election of SEN
ator Stephenson" Mr.. Hines was
asked
Never Nor did I ever make or
receive any promises in that regard.
I have known Senator Stephenson for
twenty years and in that time have
done $S.O00,O 900 or $4,000. 900 worth of
lumber business with him. but had
no dealings whatever in his election.
I was interested to a small extent in
his campaign in the primaries. This
was simply 10 ask shields to induce

Lisbon, Oct. 24.-As the feature of
the Royalist campaign appears more
and more certain. the people in gener-

The Royalists have suffered further
discouragcment on the frontier, for
the Spanish government apparently
has decided to take active measures
against them. and recently 400 of the
Royalists have been disarmed. Spain's
reluctance to act against the Portu-

IL is i'm a measure an experiment in
