Opposing views of the influence Of Por-
firio Diaz on Mexican life and national
development were expressed by ). ".
Reynolds, former president Of the McNi-
can Central Railway Co., and Professor
l.. G. Wells of Clarks College who has
Travelled extensively in Mexico.
Mr. Reynolds extolled Diaz for his ac-
comlishments in restoring peace to the
country and interesting foreign capital
in Industrial and economic development.
General Diaz,' he said was shown
to be II dictator in every sense or the
word, though operating under a republic
can form of government and his method
of handling affairs proved most conclu-
sively that that was the only way at
that time property TO govern the coun-
try"
Prof. Wells declared chat Diaz al
though he accomplished much gave Il
"lopsdcd administration, the develop
mcnt of the country under his regime
being almost entirely economic in char
acter with little attention to the social
life of the people
His methods Prof. Wells said. may
have proceeded from good motives, but
the statement that he mistook the
wealth of the country for its well being
is at best charitable judgment of his
rule. TO his desire to setting the wheels
of industry in motion and giving his
treasury favorable standing in foreign
money markets, he subordinated almost
everything else. His administration made
rather for the exploitation of the Mexi-
can nation than for its development.
Referring to the situation in Mexico,
Prof. Wells said that foreign govern
ments DESTROYS of ending the discord
should beware of forcing "a compromise
between the opposing factions and should
give little heed ITO the capitalists who
are more interested in securing present
returns from their Mexican investments
than they are in bringing permanent hap
piness to Mexico"

No State Poultry
Show, This Year.

There will be no State poultry show,
this year. This announcement is
made by the officials of the Maine
State Poultry Association. The reason
for abandoning the annual show,
which has come to mean so much to
the industry in Maine, is inability
To secure a suitable hall in which TO
hold the exhibit. The following an
nouncement sent out. on Thursday.
by Secretary \. L. Merrill of the as
sociation fully explains the situation.
1T is with much regret that the
officers of the Maine State Poultry
Association announce to the poultry
ment that they will be obliged to
abandon their annual show for the
present, as there is no suitable build
ing in Maine available for the ac-
commoda ton of show of that size.
Every possible effort has been
made to obtain the use of the Port
land Auditorium but the officers OF
the National Guards, who now con-
troi the same, positively refuse TO
cancel their drills for one week to
enable the poultrymen to show there.
THE disseminating of the annual
show means Il serious injury to the
poultry industry of Maine, and 1t IS
the sincere hope of every poultry
breeder that there will be Il building
erected somewhere in Maine in the
near future suitable for a large eX-
hibit.

The New South Wales government
dock yard on Cockatoo island in sgd
ney harbor is hewn out of solid rock.
Historically Gocka too island is of much
interest. as it was the site Of a, large
prison in the days when British con-
victs We're deported to Australia The
present offices on the island are in the
old prison buildings, the stone walls,
barred windows and iron-doored cells
being still in evidence. The forma-
ton of the island was originally quite
unsuitable for a dockyard, as solid
rock rose sheer from the water to a
height of 60 to 70 feet. But using con-
Wet labor. however. the rock was
gradually cut back, finst to permit the
building of craving docks and later to
make room for building slips and
shops near water level. The work has
been continued until at present two
thirds of the total area of SO acres has
been brought to a practically uniform
level OF about Is feet above high tide.
