Ill-Feeling Against Juarez.
Between Diaz and Juarez there
was always a hint of ill-feeling.
Once in 1871, he was actively in re-
volt against his old commander, but
the rebellion was shortlived.
1t is interesting to recall that in
1876 Diaz was Mexican insurgent,
seeking safety on the Mexican side of
the Rio Grande, when the United
States government forbid any at
tempt at invasion of Mexico from the
American side. History does indeed
repeat itself.
Diaz succeeded Lerdo as president
in 1877, and has since occupied the
Office of chief executive, except for
the four years from 1880 to 1884,
when he procured the election of his
old comrade, Gonzales
The country had no manufactures

world took note of thirty wears ago
Cotton mills, tobacco factories, su-
gar refineries today give employment
to many thousands of Mexcans. Jute
and silk, woolens, iron and steel, pa
per, soap, beer, are among the larger
Industries. The banking business
has been encouraged, while the ma
tons financial standing, under the
skillful guidance of Senior Limantour
has been greatly strengthened.
The vast ennigeering works to
drain the valley of Mexico and the
merger of the national railways,
with capital stock of nearly $780,
100000 (MeXican) and nearly 5000
miles of road in operation are prob
ably the greatest purely material
achievements of the Diaz administra-
ton. But the institution and devel-
opment of free educational facilities
deserves no less credit.
1t is said that the president is a
comparatively poor man.

ITALIAN PROSPERITY
DUE TO EMIGRATI0NS

ROME, Italy, March 12.-Advantages
derived by Italy from emigration We're
enumerated by Premier Luzzatti in an
important debate In the chamber OF depu
ties yesterday. He said that $21i 900. 900
had been sent home by emiGrants to the
United States in the last three years
and that the financial prosperity OF the
country was due mainly to this fact.
Emigration. said the premier contributed
TO the development OF the shipping and
national industries and to the increase
OF imports. and hence the government
was bound to encourage II.
The premier expressed the hope that
the time was near when Italian prosper
ity and industrial development would
reach a stage where the country would
not need the aid OF emigration. Then
he concluded. steps would be taken to
diminish the exodus of workers, and Italy
would export goods only, and not men.
