MADERO FOLLOWER
 TALKS ON MEXICO
Says Missionaries and Teachers
 Are Needed, Not Soldiers

Senor Emeterio De La Garza, a i lcrmer member Of President Maderos caplnet in Mexico anC also one of the afhlSuce commissioners in Mexico at the beginning of the famous revolu- uon' In an interesting address before the New Britain club last evening on What is Wrong With Mexico" de- clared that intervention in the southern republic would be deplora ble and what the United States ought to dc is send missionaries and teachers across the border rather than armed soldiers.
 1 Senor De La Garza is a 1awver hv profession and was one of Maxico,e leading citizens before the great re1o- lution, so he is we'll versed in con- dltions as they exist there. Tn his ad
 dress last evening he did not utter one W ord of direct criticism against preei cent Wilson and his policies. Rut + was apparent from his talk that he considered the situation badly bungled by the present administration Among other things he remarked that since God had placed Mexico and the 1 United States together as such close neighbors their relations should be friendly rather than antagonistic Il As one of the great faults of the Mexican republic, Senor De La Garza 1 referred to the agrarian problem. He | declared that the vast lands of that country are owned by about 5000 people and the idea of confiscation as advanced by the northern bandit chiefs is entirely wrong. He thinks that the land should be valued by the owners and taxes levied and collected. Tn this way fair valuation would be made, as too heavy valution would only increase the taxes. He also thought that no back taxes should be i levied. The speaker also declared
 that given half a, chance and any en- l coura cement the native Mexicans, or reons, and Indians would be peace loving agricultural lot of men. As
 one of the great steps towards a re-
 united people and permanent peace across the border, Senor De La Garza
 declared that education is an absolute

 can people are illiterate.
 Advocates Immigration.
 To educate the masses in Mexico so
 that they could take their place in the
 world would take at least two or three
 centuries. Senor De La Garza, said, but
 as a more speedy solution to the edu-
 cational problem he advocated immi-
 grafton. By encouraging educated peoples from other countries to settle in Mexico education would be fostered

that way. As the big spider by it's actions had no desire to remain per- manently in Arizona they placed him in @ box and brought the creature to New Britain.
 The cactus plants arc splendid specimens and they have all been planted in pots, making a large dis play in themselves.
 In a natural cave on Twin Peak between Elgin and Patagonia, Cap tain Ladbury secured some stalactites which are unusually handsome. The captain also secured many fine min eral specimens during the stay the border. Large copper specimens were taken from an abandoned mine near one of their camps while on hike back from Huachuca. Lead ore was secured from Patagonia mine. Gold ore was obtained from a mine on a hill near Nogales Pumping station. Beautiful jasper specimens were gath cred near SOnoita on way back from Fort Huachuca. Geodes were col lected near Escalada mine. Other specimens were picked up at various places where the boys camped or while on hike
 Captain Ladbury has kindly marked in red ink on a map the routes taken on hikes and the different places at which camp was made.
 Perhaps one of the most interest ing things brought back is the lock of an old U. s. flint lock rifle which was picked up in the Santa Cruz river bed by Private Marian Burgess Co., I. Stamped in the lock is ar American Eagle and the wording Hampers Ferry Arsenal, 1882. Among other things which will be on exhibi- tion is a pair of silver mounted, hand forged Mexican spurs; bow, quive1 and arrows which are used in the present day by the Yuqui Indians ir l Mexico, and Q rawhide lariat.

good will and comfort that it has lav- ished on Carranza, Villa and outlaw chiefs on the real Mexican people con- ditions would quickly adjust them selves, Senor De La Garza said. He said there are about 2,000,000 real Mexicans of a class that abhors war and all it's horrors and yearns for reace. Of this number there are 60,- coo exiled in California. Yet they re- ceive no encouragement while the bandit leaders are at least recognized If these real Mexicans were given chance, comfort and some recogni- ton they would find some man who had the moral support of the country and public sentiment would bring a speedy settlement to the revolt, &C., cording to the speakers opinion.
 Speaking of the possibility of tinted States intervention in Mexico, Senor De La Garza said that it would :e unfortunate and useless It would mean all the horrors of Indian war

fare and the entire nation would unite against the invaders. The bandits would naturally fight and the other classes taking the view that their sovereignty was being jeopardized, would join. Intervention is not the way to settle the matter and the United States instead of sending down soldiers ought to send missionaries and teachers, the speaker said 70
 Several of Senor De La Garza's au- dince asked him a number of ques- tons, among them being the probable attitude of the natives if missionaries were sent down. He replied that mis- sionaries of all sects had always been welcome in Mexico. Asked regarding the atrocities against the Catholic priests, the speaker said that these people brought it upon themselves. He said that from his information a certain class of Catholic priests in Mexico began to meddle in politics and so interested themselves in the political intrigues that they became obnoxious.

'apt. Ladbury Proves Himself City'S First Naturalist

Tn response to the request that the Euseurn of Natural History and Art f the New Britain Institute made for becimens while the soldier boys were Arizona. the men fell in with a ill and secured the best possible col lction of specimens they could find. laptain H. F. Ladbury proved that |e was naturalist as well as a bldier, by giving instructions how to bpture and hunt for certain crea- llres, and also in demonstrating his B5flity in preserving specimens. The |bys were always on the alert for Eawling things and whenever the bportunity presented itself went Iunting for specimens. However, it sas not necessary to always go karching for objects, for on several 6casions creatures of strange and f1rious forms would come into camp keking to be made captive. On one kstance Lieutenant Raymond R. land had turned in" for a much 'eeded sleep after a days hiking, < hen he was awakened by feeling bmething crawling about under the bvers. Desire for sleep departed in flash and he sprang from his cot 8ith a keen desire to learn something bout the unwelcome disturber.

Instead of Pushing the life out of the creature (e proceeded to capture it, which he kd after some difficulty. It is 8 blendid specimen and is the largest kntipede brought back from the bor- Ter.

As proof of this assertion he called attention to Argen- tine where conditions a hundred years ago were not unlike those of Mexico hut due to an influx of educated peoples conditions have so changed that this southern republic is fast gaining a place among the wealthy and pleasant countries of the world.

 There are numerous other things which Captain Ladbury and his boys collected for the exhibit and all will be so arranged as to display the specimens to the best possible ad- vantage. Beginning Monday the ex- hibits from the border will be on view and it is certain that large crowds will visit the museum to see the objects which were collected by the lads in khaki during their three months stay in Arizona.

The gt Id and silver bullion sup rly is exhausted and 1t is hard to get loans from foreign countries.
