 policy the political liberty for the country.
 "The country under these Condi- tions was peaceful no longer and the lava of a new revolution was beginning to brew. Porfrio Diaz was not the man to keep cool be- fore such political conditions, and then started, in the name of the country and for the sake of peace, series of the most sanguinary deeds that has ever been commit. ted by any ruler. The people had then to take one or the other horn of the dilemma; to accept an .fm- posed peace and dictatorship or a civil war with it's terrifying anarchy. Mexican people were already tired of shedding blood and of revolu- tions although they knew that they were but being used as instruments for raising other men to power, men who were gratifying their own personal ambitions. yet they sub- mitted.
 SELFISH AMBITION. |
 "The long period of Por6rio Diaz' rule was no doubt a peaceful one but as he wished to hold the position only to satisfy his personal desires and for the sake of yielding power, the administration of the law was placed in the hands of his friends who had ever more selfish views in reward to their country.
 "This famous epoch of the Diaz government will certainly be re. corded in history as one of great material progress owing to the entrance of much capital from abroad which was protected by very liberal concessions made by the Diaz government to foreigners. During the period also the Mexican people were ready to adapt them selves to anything which meant development and progress, for that reason they accepted the best ol the progressive ideas introduced by foreigners.
 During this formative and de. velopment period new generation came on, three or four millions strong, and it is that generation which has brought about the revo lution and which pushed it to g successful issue.
 "The first trial of reform, as everyone recognizes, was based or democratic principles, but as th' original platform of Porfrio Dial was far from being carried out by the executive, the democratic ideal of the new generation received { great set back and the tremepdou , Enational revolution came al las lFbut not until every legal plan haC , been exhausted. Every one knows , that the anti.reelectionist part, which was organized throughou Mexico met at all times with tn, opposition of the Diaz government though the organization was mad, ' in perfectly correct manner. "The great leader of this nationa 3 political party gave an example il Mexican history never before seer ] of what the Mexican people ar able to do in the line of democracy The political campaign throughou l the republic revealed to the worl l the oppression on the part of tn l government against. the popula . and growing democracy and als ] ultimately has shown the trump

Aueinesa Man From Mexico Addresses Wall Street Flnsneiers on local
 Conditions.
Mexican Herald.l


 agencies of the Mutual Life Insur. ance Company of New York deliv. cred the following address recently in New York before a number of 6nanCiers of Wall Street who are interested deeply in Mexican affairs:
 Mir. Ruiz said:
 "The triumph of the revolution started by the new generation of young Mexicans is preparing a new era for the nation more fiourishing and more prosperous than ever, Mexico will be the paradise of foreign capitalists.
 If we consider that the basis of tbe revolutionary program of Gen eral Porfrio Diaz was 'no.re-election and universal suffrage it will lead Us to see that a period of thirty years was necessary 10. give the conception practical form. Por. 6rio Diaz was a great ruler the first twenty years in the presidency because when he ascended to power the Mexican people were anxious for peace. and though Diaz offered peace to Mexico in the form oi military dictature every one vel cOmed the Dlsz government as 6 means rof putting an end tC brigandage and anarchy. Dial was man of natural and clear intelligence, but he was still more a, man of circumstan ,es. In those times, after our long and tremend Ous wars of reform and against French intervention, the Mexican nation and people were exhausted and wanted calm and peace before anything else.
 LACK OF HARMONY.
 "All the elements of the repub lie were dispersed and there exist ed no harmony whatever among the many political bands acting independently of each other in th, country. Por6rio Diaz put hefor, these men who formed the differen political parties of as many diff terent policies the unique ant patriotic program, The Union 0 all Mexicans to Save the Country. This slogan was cheerfnlly accept ed by all patriotic Mexicans as th only one which could consolidat, the different parties and brinI peace to the republic.
 General Diaz was then elected president. His great labor begal then, and then also began tn longest and most terrible eppcl Oi tyranny and dictatorship in tn annals of Mexican history. Tn principle of No re election an, Uhlverbal Suffrage which figure, In Diaz's revolutionary program and on his banners was immediate y violated by him, he namin lnot leaving to popular election friends and people in whom h contded tooccupy the gubernatoria chairs of the different states an Other public positions.

MADERO AND DIAZ.

dtbonucu tllo CdupdIRH LuIOuRnuuL the republic, the leader Francisco 1. Madero was called upon to give an account to General Porfrio Diaz of his past acts and of his future intentions. Madero inspired with the soul of the new generation of Mexico spoke to Diaz in the most patriotic and courageous manner saying:
 "General, 1 come to declare to you that have mingled with the people and l am impressed with their feelings. They are now ready to exercise the right of universal suffrage. They want to elect their own rulers and l am here to tell you at this moment that if you oppose the will of the people revolution is sure to come, revo. luton which neither you nor 1 will be capable oi controlling. l will tell you that the people are still with you, they still respect you but they are very hostile toward the governors of all the states of the republic who are occupying their positions not by tke will of the people but through your own per. sonal appointments, Mir. President.'
 ITO these remarks Por6rio Diaz 1replied: I think you are misin- formed about the real conditions and feelings of the people, specially as to the hostile feeling towards the governors of the states. As to the respect they feel for me, cer- tainly appreciate it and feel sure that it will assist in preventing any outbreak of a revolution, but at the same time if a revolution should come, 1 tell you now, that the whole nation is against it and 1 am prepared to control it,
 "The rest of the conversation be-
 tween the two men was never given
 to the world, but those who are acquainted with the present popu-
 lar leader are certain that he tried
 in every way to convince General
 Diaz of the necessity of changing
 completely the regime of the old
 political system which had ceased
 to be agreeable to the people.
 "All the talk and actions, how
 ever, did not serve to convince Porfrio Diaz and his officials that
 they must change their old politi-
 cal system. Then occurred an outrage which would have put to shame any republican government The popular leader of the country was thrown into prison until the elections should be held, elections which were of course fraudulent }. One of the principal causes of the strong feeling oithe people against the government of Diaz was thai he, as the head of the nation, was not satisfied with having imposed himself upon the people but wal scheming to impose his self ap pointed successor on the country } and really he could not have

WoiO thVlO WOOtA DV lIO SudIdhtCG- at all for the rights of the people The spark of the dormant revolu- tion was kindled then for the gen eral sentiment recognized that the act was an outrage and at the same time the most impolitic thing which could have been done by the government. The elections which were held resulted in the most scandalous imposition of the will of the few over the will of the entire nation. The results were just what might have been expect ed anywhere and especially among race as inhamable as the Latin races are. Still the people wished to demonstrate before the world their intentions of using peaceful methods to. the end if possible. So that as soon as Congress convened in the City of Mexico a written protest against the last. general elections was presented signed by thousands and thousands of citi- zens. The protest was duly pre- sented in congress but was not con sidered in any way by that body which, at that time was composed of persons nominated or appointed by Porfrio Diaz.
 PEOPLE LOSE CONFIDENCE.
 "The people then lost every bit of confidence they had ever had in the word of Por6rio Diaz and a tre- mendous and national revolution arose at once and before the end of four, months it is safe to say that 60, 900 men were in arms and that ninety-eight per cent of the people of Mexico were against the fraud. ulent government of Por6rio Diaz.
 Never in the history of Mexico was there seen such spontaneous and unanimous manifestation of the nation as in this case, and the results were foreordained. The old corrupt regime of Porfrio Diaz had to end and the new generation rise up and prepare new era of pro- gress and splendor for the Mexican people.
 THE LAST REVOLUTION.
 "I am disposed to believe that anarchy and revolutions are for ever banished from Mexico. As 1 said before, a new, healthy and powerful class of the younger gen. eration of Mexicans was formed during the last period of peace and all of them are on the side of peace and civilization and will put forth every energy and their utmost power to control any revolutinary movement which does not find na- tional support.
 Ut is then my opinion that from now on Mexico will develop more and more, and that its political conditions will be such as to ban ish forever revolutionary spirit and open more and more the liber- al doors through which foreign capital will enter the republic and believe that the nation will give even more solid guarantees to such capital than did the government of Por6rio Diaz. Under his govern , ment, the government alone pro- tected foreign capital but now on I it will be protected by both the government and by the people, , since now that these have gained
 the liberty to exert their personal !, rights they will sustain this privi- , lege under liberal laws made by - | Al

The Game of Life.

Life is game, we say; and from
time to time we urge one another
to play the game fair and to 3
finish. In this reference, we must
remember that the zest Of the
game consists in ones skill to
overcome opposition. An oppon-
emit who fails to call forth our best
endeavor deadens all interest in the
sport, whatever it may be. A
one sided contest means loose
playing and tagging zeal; on the
other hand, the more skilled and
and alert an adversary, the more
resourceful and aggressive our
game. In the contests of life
where there is no worthy competi-
tor, there can be but slight achieve
ment and little glory. The uphill
game, however, which is won
through no adventitious aid OF
favor or Of fortune, but solely up.
on its merits and by Stubborn per
sistence, brings glow of satisfac-
ton which is wholly unknown In
the triumph of an easy victory.
We do not care to play with a
novice, we demand the rigor of the
game, and free scope for the dis
play of our powers. 1t is posi-
sible, therefore, to meet the OPP
position which life holds for US,
in the spirit of adventure, and,
like the knights of old, ride forth
to meet the foe with hope and the
10y of battle in our heart. John
Grier Hibben, in the Atlantic.

"On my word of honor, / here

am a resident of this community,
it will be my constant aim to boost
at all times and every time.
Il will do what l can for any
public work that has the good Of
the community as its object,
Il will submit and abide by ma
jority rule, and will not knock and
howl my head off if things are not
done in my way.
Il will not take a radical or ex-
treme position on any question be-
fore the people, and will have due,
respect for opinions of my friends
and neighbors when their opinions
are opposite to mine.
| will try to always say some
thing good about my town and
people, or I'll keep my bazoo shut
and cut it out like man.
Il realize that if this communi-
ty is good enough to live in and to
make my money in, it is the
proper place to spend my money"

The following appeared under a
Liberal date line last week in the
Hutchinson Gazette.
Considerable amusement has
been caused here the past week by
the accounts of the Pellette case
which have been appearing in To-
peka and Hutchinson papers. The
osteopath has not been rumored,
nor has he given out any inter-
views to that effect. The physi-
clans who testified in the case were
merely appointed by the court to
examine the condition of the Pei
lette baby, and were not witnesses
for the state.
The complaining witness. Ezra
Shorb, one of the very old resi-
dents of the town, having been in
business here for the past 26 years,
and he says no physician here
knew OF the case until it was filed.
The Osteopath here has received
a quantity of free advertising over
the affair, and the papers have
been tricked into printing this ad-
vertisement for the osteopatbs,
under the guise ofnews. DIR. Pei
lette says the first intimation he
had tibet the state association was
to help in the case came to him
through the newspapers.
