DEPUTIES TAKE
A GOOD WHACK
AT PRES. DIAz
NEW ANTI REELECTION LAW
WILL PASS WITHOUT MUCH
TROUBLE.

MEXICO CITY, April 25.-Unless
the chamber of deputies finds some
thing more interesting to discuss
tomorrow afternoon, the various
measures iE the proposed anti-re-
election law will DE adopted. At
the close of session lasting until
Q O'Clock last night, the bill as a
whole was passed with only one
dissenting vote. 1t remains TO pass
ulon every article separately.
Perhaps never in the history Of
the chamber has its deputies in
dulged in more Spectacular oratory.
The galleries were crowded with
spectators and these contributed
Kisses and applause, and shouted
comment in such volume that at
times it was impossible for the
speakers on the floor to be under
stood. President Diaz and his
methods were criticised and senti-
ments uttered which few months
ago none but the most daring would
make.
Deputy Ignacio Gravo Belancourt
declared the real motives for the
presentation of the bill were sup
piled by the armed revolt.
General Diaz, he said, had come
into power by waving the banner
of no reelection, and that same
slogan had been the inspiration Of
the present bloodshed. The in
definite continuance of any man il
power, said the deputy, paved the
way to tyranny.
Deputy Saavedra gained the lou(
disapproval of the spectators b.
accusing Senior Belancourt of play
ing to the galleries.
: Deputy Lozano reviewed the ex
ecutive history of the president il
manner calculated to show tha
I with every recurring Inauguration
e the people became more dissatifle6
e until in 1910 popular libertie
g were laid in their grave and thei

: The deputy was interrupted S
S frequently that at one time he Gre
ated a sensation by turning his fac
towards the galleries and invitin
his coward enemies" to meet hil
in personal combat.
Deputy Diodoii Batalla, a radica
J, declared that the indefinite continl
ance of General Diaz in power Wa
t. not to be considered. He adde
G that elections in Mexico never ha
been more than a form.
Referring to Madero, Batalla sal
that few months ago he had mac
pilgrimage from end to end

petty local authorities for preachil
the very doctrine which the char
ber was now called upon to a
prove.

Reports from all places she has
taught are satisfactory. Ever
since she has been teaching she has
held a first class certificate. AS an
indication of her popularity she at
tended the Omaha Exposition as
the guest of the Palmyra Spectator

Monroe Library.

The Monroe Chapter P. T Os
have built up a library which is
not only a credit to the Society but
also to the town. Many times they
become discouraged because this
grand institution does not receive
the patronage which 1t deserves
and should have. No citizen could
spend d dollar in a way to gel more
pleasure and profit than they would
get from getting one book a week
from the Monroe Library. Their
books are carefully selected and
are worthy a careful reading. 1t is
more pleasant and profitable to read
one good book such as you will find
in the P. f. D. Library than to read
1000 trashy blood and thunder
stories. Every citizen should be
directly interested in building up
the Library. Get a ticket at once.
1t will do you good.

meath his feet and sent him head

earth at the edge of the water, hav-
ing fallen rs feet, and broke three
ribs and severely wrenched his
back. Drs. Ragsdale and Moss

Missouri Won't Let Armour Leave.

Kansas City, Mo, Feb. 1S.-The
attempt of the Armour Packing Co.,
to surrender its charter and with
draw from Missouri is believed to
be confession that the State has
proved its allegations that the big
packing companies are in trust
and that a judgement in custer is
inevitable. The Secretary of State
under orders from Attorney-Gener-
al Major refused to accept the sur
render of the charter.
The Republic Oil Co. attempted
two years ago to circumvent custer
proceedings by quitting the State,
but the Supreme Court, in sustain
ing the suit against it, directed that
its property be held against any
claim likely to be made.
