WHEN DIAZ

Shortly before Portifrio Diaz
was forced to give up the presid-
ency Of Mexico he made this por-
tentous remark to a representative
of the Cosmopolitan Magazine
Anything that benefits the
Americans in this country benefits
Mexico, and ANYTHING that Injuries
the Americans Injuries Mexico
Since he left, this proposition has
been reversed
When Diaz left Mexico some real
ly great advances had been made.
True, the old general, knowing the
peppery Mexican temperament,
was too slow in giving them any
real democratic government. But
he truly boasted that a new Mexico
was slowly being erected on the
double foundation of the farm and
the school. In some provinces Hit
eracy had been greatly reduced.
Parents were SO anxious for educa
ton for their children. that they
would often give them up to en-
ployers of labor, on condition that
they should be allowed to attend
school. The best schools were pro-
gressive, with free text books.
medical examinations and indus
trial training.
If Gen. Diaz obeys the command
Of his country TO return he will find
that three years have made great
changes. American property worth
$40, 1000, 900 has been destroyed.
The Mexicans have had their dance,
now they must pay the piper.
President Huerta is reported as
recognizing that these claims must
be dealt with. II the Mexicans
wish light. water, railroads, und all
the machinery cf civilization, they
must stop converting the property
of foreigners into junk, and they
must listen with some respect to
the views of the foreign peoples.
p President Diaz had his faults but
he al too big a mar for bantam
craftsmanship. His government in
its extremity has done veil to seek
his help and advice. He will be
able to tell his fiery compatriots
some elementary things that other
people learn in their early days.
