victorious insurgent leader and Senior

is shown by his manifesto in which
he declared that it is an inopportune
time for the Mexican people to have
close election. and urged those who
would have supported him had he
accepted the nomination for presi-

In the recent conferences Gen

ed the demands for reforms made by
Madero upon the Diaz administration
three months ago. Among the inn
portant demands were: No re-elec-
ton of the president. Governors of
states to be eXerted, not appointed.
Curtailing the powers of mayors and
making their office elective Free bal.
lots in all elections, Preservation of
individual rights Extension of the
school system. Reform of the land
laws, so that farms now as extensive
as from 100000 to 10000, 600 acres
