THE RESPONSIBILITY OF DI.lz.

General Diaz. ex-president Of Mex
leo. is quoted as saying that the pres
ent state of Mexico is proof that nc
was not A tyrant and that the only
method of ruling that unit is 10y
the iron hand. This is not quite ac-
curate.
1t is undoubtedly true thar for the
present and during General Diaz's re-
sime Of thirty years or more the W
rannical method of maintaining peace
and order was necessary. But that
Diaz was a tyrant, in the sense of des-
pot. is shown in the fact that after
thirty years of his rule the people
know little better than disorder and
conflict.
The man who held such power as
Diaz had. if he wishes to establish his
fame on a higher plane than that of
despotic rule. should have seen the
Mexican nation educated to the
knowledge of a more civilized rule.
Children born after Diaz usurped
power are grown citizens now. Prac-
tfcally a new generation has grown
up. II Disz had had the welfare OF
his country at heart he would have
cooperated with the men who advo-
Gated the introduction Of truly repre-
sentative methods instead Of Danish
tng them or keeping them under sur
yeillance.
1t is proved that the Diaz regime
left Mexico with little more political
intelligence than he found it. Madero
has committed the mistake Of believ-
ing that the country could be gov
erned by pacific and easy methods.
He has seen his error, and whether
he a restore order by the strong
hand is the issue now being tried out.
But for the condition Diaz's rule.
more than any other single cause,
is responsible.

PARK BOARD TICKETS
PUT ON SALE
TUESDAY
Four Different Kinds Will be
Offered to Followers of
the Pastime.

With the installation of the new
system of tickets. which will. take eff
feet mex Tuesday, the interest in golf
ing in Grand Forks is awakening.
Last Sunday saw many followers Of
what Montgomery called Cow pasture
pool" puncturing the atmosphere with
swiftly driven balls and also assailing
said atmosphere with remarks Of a
vivid nature. More are taking to the
game every day and ii is expected
that, the healthful pastimc will have
more devotees than ever this year.
The new system of tickets Will be
put in effect neX Tuesday. unless
there is q big demand for them be-
lore that time. -Four kinds of tickets
viii be sold this year. They are:
Single day. .non-transferable. =,
Family season ticket it. .
TWENTY-FIVE day coupon book
Weekly ticket. non-transferable.
pom book promises to be the most
popular. The park board has ar
ranged for a coupon book. which will
be transferable. which may be used
for more than one person on the
same day and which will entitle the
holder to the use of the city tennis
courts and golf links. The price of
this ticket is SO.
The price of the family ticket.
the family and through the entire
season, remains as last year $40. The
ticket COED for a week and non
transferable costs the player 81. The
n day ticket price has remained the
anne fifty cents. All of these tickets
entitle the holder to both golf links
and tennis courts.
Due to the ct that the city treas
lurer changes next Tuesday. it has
e thought best by the park board.
to not put the tickets on sale until
after Mr.. Welsh takes Office. This
will save needless work in the trans.
feral of additional accounts.

There is much controversy as TO the
authenticity OF the work attributed u

We're finished by Titan there must
have been a similarity in the style OF

thought to have been the work OF

ITALIAN ART.
by Sister VI. d

The distinguishing characteristic of
the Venetian school Of art is richness
of coloring. The canvases Of Giorgi-
one. Titan. Tintoretto and veronese
are joyously aglow with the light that
neve was on land or sea-"
How wonderful is the art that can
perpetuate the smiling splendor Of the
passing hour, Veronese has thus fix
ed imperishably upon canvas the men
and women who lived and loved in
Venice four centuries ago. In his WON
derfuI painting, THE Marriage Of
Cana now in the Louvre Gallery.
Paris. Veronese has given US 13S life
size portraits of prominent Eenetians
Of that time. The picture covers 600
square feet, and in forever changeless.
