Charles l.. Hardy, pioneer oil

MI. Hardy, who is now rs years

nearly so years. During his early
days he followed the mining pro-

put in shift at his chosen work
and can make a man younger IN
years look TO his laurels when
it comes to putting in a round Of

A Misunderstood Man.

A war correspondent Of wide ex-
perience who covered" the late un-
pleasantness in Mexico for New York
paper, writing In the current North
American Review of the revolution and
It's leaders, gives the impression that
Don Francisco !. Madero was and is a
much misunderstood man, both at
home and abroad. His own estimate
OF Madero is quite pointedly set forth
in this excerpt:
This little Mexican gentleman is an
interesting and profitable study even
from this side Of the border. He
neither smokes nor attends bull fights.
He abhors the barbarie pomp with
which Diaz loved TO surround himself.
He is not friend OF lotteries and he plans
the end Of the pulque traffic. He has
never mixed with men, yet he has been
able 70 plaoate more conflicting interests
and olashing groups than Diaz did in his
thirty years OF power. He risked friends.
family and fortune at the call Of duty in
the revolutionary game ct which he was q
mere tyro. a somewhat iudicrous, one, AZ
Dias thought
II this estimate be correct, one can
more easily reconcile Maderos alleged
unpopularity. both with the knowing
ones in the old government regime and
with the unknowing and unthink-
Ing crowds OF followers they have had.
Nor even yet Is II strange that such a
man should fail to satisfy the exacting
demands OF those honestly, as they be-
liAvs, bent on better things for Mex
ico's populace, for It must be that his
ideals are beyond their conception.
No doubt it is true, as we are now
told, that ''Madero paid his people the
high compliment OF expecting from
them a keener political sense and q
greater measure OF self-control than
they have been able to compass. But
that is a good side on which TO err II
one must err. 1t is easy to see from
this explanation Just how confusing
and difficult IL the situation in Mexico
with the old regime OF shrewd, but un-
scrupulous leaders still insisting on
their discredited system. and an equally
able and superior leader OF a new
element urging a measure Of popular
rights which the large. ignorant ma

shamelessness on the stage, a tendency

reputable element of stagecraft, whose

cence. Stage folks cannot expect much
to be said in behalf Of the stage If they

claim upon public interest save their

portation powers have not done that

not only to Canadian gain, but to prod

canal construction. bring to these
superb valleys a new touch Of indus
trial potency beyond present estimate.
We do not know but a north and south
road Is to be one of the many indirect
results this country is to reap from the
canal At least the building OF such a
line, or the formation of It by connect
ing up links Of established lines, seems
to have awaited the actual construc-
ton of the Panama waterway.
For year such a Canada to the Gulf
route has been in contemplation, but
this is the nearest to actuality anyone
has yet come. The demand for and
the opportunities OF the traffic were
duly exploited during the days OF
early oil development in Texas, when
1t was proposed to run a line OF steam
ers down the Mississippi to New Or
leans and from there to Port Arthur on
the Gulf If system of water trans
portation would be feasible, certainly
the more direct and uninterrupted rail-
road system would be incomparably
more profitable.
If Mr.. Hawley succeeds in perfecting
his plans. he will thereby secure a hold
on the railroad situation in the middle
country equal to, II not stronger than,
any other man or group of men.

Men and Measures.

Principles are eternal and men
merely transitory. The promotion of
measures must be paramount to the
advancement of personal ambition
These and similarly laudable declars-
lions are usually made whenever any
public movement is projected, but be-
fore long Il Is invariably discovered
that men and measures are indissolubly
linked together. and that the only way
principles can be indicated Is through
the men who apply them.
These remarks are suggested by the
experience through which our insur-
gents in Nebraska are passing, having
started out with a league promulgating
platform of measures to which few
would take exception, only to disclose
that the real purpose of the organiza-
ton, or rather of the active members,
is to center upon a particular candidate
for president in order to head off some
other candidate. OF course, league
devoted exclusively to principle cannot
properly be converted into a political
club, but the same elements may be
organised under another name, with a
leader for inspiration and measures in
the background.
No one has any right TO find fault
with this turn of affairs, for Il is the
customary and expected development.
The high-sounding proclamation OF un-
selfish fealty to principle, however,
must be amended to admit that those
principles can be enacted into meas
ures only through the agency of men,
and that there is no longer any pre-
tense Of an organization with no enc
mics to punish, no ambitions to be sub
served, and no candidates to boost.
