The Appeal

THE APPEAL STEADILY GAINS BECAUSE: 4-It is the organ of ALL Afro-Americans. 5-It is not controlled by any ring or clique. 6-It asks no support but the people's. VOL. 29. NO. 9. SENATORS DOOM FILIPINO HOPES O'Gorman Opposed to Fixing Times For Abandoning Control -Says Education May Take Generations -Williams Suggests a Foreign Secretary -Not Coming Up at Special Session. Washington-Whatever action may be taken by the house toward granting independence to the Philippines, the attitude of Democratic leaders in the senate makes certain the defeat of any legislation which aims to bring about the relinquishment of control over the islands by the United States in the immediate future. Influential Democrats in the upper house think that the Filipinos as a whole are not yet capable of self government, but there is a difference of opinion as to when they may safely be intrusted with that privilege. The defeat of the Jones bill giving entire control to the islanders within eight years is assured. Senator O'Gorman, who is opposed to fixing any definite time for giving the Filipinos a free hand, takes the view that they may not be equal to the task. SENATOR JAMES A. O'GORMAN. for one or two generations or even longer. As the senator from New York is close to Governor Wilson, it may be assumed that he has so advised the president elect. The granting of independence to the Philippines is of so little urgency that the question will not even be taken up by the senate at the forthcoming special session of congress, according to Senator O'Gorman. Senator Simmons, who probably will be chairman of the committee on finance; Senator Martin and other Democratic senators – more than enough to prevent overturning the present system of administering the affairs of the Philippines – are inclined to oppose the Jones bill. Only a few Democrats, such as Senator Johnston, favor giving the Philippines independence at once. Others, like Senator Gore and Senator Stone, say that the islands should be neutralized, if that could be accomplished, remaining under the protection of the United States, before any step in the direction of autonomy is taken. It is the more conservative view that it is best to wait until the educational work undertaken by the United States has shown its effect seems to prevail generally. The Jones bill granting the islands an independent government within eight years is so far from the minds of Democratic senators that few have considered the question at all. Senator Williams, who was one of the originators of the so called "bridge government" for the gradual relinquishment of control over the islands, expressed the opinion that the time fixed should not be less than eight years and that the United States should retain a certain control over the islands of the island with foreign governmental control, an American secretary for foreign affairs, who should be responsible to the state department in Washington, and that the granting of independence should not take place for a much longer time than eight years, certainly not less than fifteen. Senator Martin took the ground that there is no immediate necessity for taking up the Philippine question now. He believed that he would now owe too short a time for the transition. In view of the attitude of the leaders in the senate, which undoubtedly has been made known to Governor Wilson, it is not probable that either the executive or legislative department after March 4 will take any step toward abandoning the control of the United States over the Philippines, which, as President Taft said, is so necessary to their own well being. Train Hits Steamboat. Cumberland City, Tenn.—Carried by a flood on to a railroad track, a river steamer was struck by a freight train. A hole was ripped in the steamer's side. INTEREST IN NEW GAS. Does Not Fall Into Any Place In Present Grouping, of Elements. ent Grouping of Elements. London. - The announcement made by Sir Joseph J. Thomson that he had discovered a new gas which is an element of thrice the atomic weight of hydrogen, the lightest element known, has been received with intense interest by chemists. The new gas appears to belong to the same group as helium, neon, argon, krypton and xenon, all of which are found in minute quantities in the air and which have the peculiar property of complete inertness, so they do not form compound combinations. Sir Joseph Thomson's gas, which he calls provisionally, does not fall into any place in the present group of the elements, according to their properties and atomic weights. The same difficulty arose when helium, neon, argon, krypton and xenon were discovered, but it was surmounted by the creation of a new group into which they all fall. SAYS MARS IS INHABITED. Professor Henderson of Harvard Thinks Life Exists There. Boston.-Professor Lawrence J. Henderson of Harvard, a scholar of profound scientific attentions, indoles to a certain extent the world known views of Professor Perivald Lowell that the planet Mars is inhabited. Professor Henderson says the abstract considerations support Professor Lowell so far as they indicate that there is no reason why life should not inhabit Mars. "There are certain characteristics of earth which may be regarded as specific." he says. "There were great quantities of water and carbonic acid in the atmosphere when it formed. The result will be general of any planet tendency to form oceans, lakes and streams. Wherever such a process exists life, if it once gets a foothold, can exist." ONE CAT UPSET NEW REPUBLIC Scandalized Mount Athos by Raising a Family. Saloniki. European Turkey. — Europe's latest and smallest republic has grown out of the Bulkan war. It is Mount Athos, the sacred peninsula near Saloniki. There is nothing but twenty-one ancient monasteries founded by Russians, Greeks, Bulgarians and Servians in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. All overhang the cliffs of the Aegean sea, and the monks go up and down from the shores in baskets worked on pulleys by their brethren. So sacred is the peninsula that no female is allowed therein, not even a cow or a hen. The abbot of the older Russian monastery kept a cat, which recently disgraced the island by having kittens. All the monks hold a court to try her, declared she had broken their sacred rules and had drowned. Some of the monasteries are very strict and never allow the inmates to wash even their hands or faces or to go outside the gardens, which are said to be very beautiful. Others contain the oldest Greek manuscripts in the world, supposed to be able to fill gaps in the Epistles and other parts of the New Testament. This idea of making Mount Athos a republic came from Russia, anxious to keep her influence in Macedonia, and is unwelcome to Bulgaria, tired of turmoil, considering the church as a political force, new of less importance than before. But the other allies pressed Russia's proposal because they felt jealous of Bulgarian domination in that sacred territory. Delegates from the allied states will meet in Salonikl, under the Russian consul and draw up the new reorganization laws. The patriarch of the Bulgarian state hitherto hived in Constantinople, probably will live on the peninsula. NOTES FROM THE NEWS. Charles W.

PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, MARCH Defective Page Went to Front With Husband When a Bride of Three Years—New Custodian of Famous Jumel Mansion in New York—Once Headquarters of Washington. New York—Kady Brownell, the only woman member of the G. A. R. and custodian of the historical Jumel mansion, has broken down and is now confined to her bed. Her faculties are falling, and effort is being made to get her husband's consent to have her removed to some institution. He is Robert S. Brownell and, like beetle, a well-known veteran of the civil war. He was quite badly hurt, and she always has been the headache of the family. Since 1838 she has been an employee of the park department, but is now incapacitated for duty. She is the recipient of a pension, passed by special act of congress. Her father was Colonel George Southwell, a British officer, who was stationed in the year 1842 in Caffarra, South Africa. His greatest friend, another officer, was Sir James Kady, who and he was married at about the time he was born in Caffarra. The two men agreed that whoever had the first child should name him after the other. Colonel Southwell's wife was proud in the knowledge that she was soon to let him fulfill his part of the bargain. There was fighting near the station in those days, and the colonel's wife drove out with some friends to observe the fighting from a distance. It was while she was there that she was taken ill. An army tent was hastily dug, and her child was born, a girl child. A few days later the little girl's mother died, and when her father could Photo by American Press Association. JUMEL MANSION IN NEW YORK, WHERE EADY BROWNELL LIVES. get away he took her back to England. Then he was ordered out with his regiment again, and he gave her into the hands of another friend. Cameron McKenzie, who was coming to America. She met Robert Brownell when they both lived in Central Falls, R I. There they were married three days before the first shot of the civil war. He had been one of the charter members of the Mechanics Rifles of Providence, where his mother lived. He took his bride to see his mother, and the evening of their arrival a call was issued for a meeting of his company. Governor William Sprague was raising troops and the Rifles were called upon. More than 200 men were there when they were asked to step forward if they had nothing to keep them from volunteering. There was just one man who didn't step forward, and he was promptly thrown down two flights of stone stairs. Robert Brownell went home and told his bride that he was going to war. She said that he shouldn't go without her. At first he langued, then he forbade her to go, and finally he begged her not to go. He told her that a regiment made up of men of all sorts was not a place for a woman. She can be a good woman in him" she answered. When he embarked with the rest of his regiment he was dismayed to find her on board. It was only after the hardest kind of work that she was taken ashore, and she immediately began her pleadings with Governor Sprague. She urged to such good effect that the governor escorted her to Washington and allowed her to take her place beside her husband. She never disguised herself as a man. She didn't carry a rifle, but she had a light saber and a revolver, with which she could shoot so well that she became known as one of the most expert sharphotgers of her regiment. The only woman which she received was a girl, the leg at the base of Bull Run. She stood up under the heavy marches much better than some of the men. One day she plodded along beside her husband over thirty miles of hard roads. PLANES IN ARCTIC WORK. French Expedition to Franz Josef Land Will Carry Two. Paris. An expedition supported by the French government is being organized to undertake exploration work in the region of Franz Josef Land. The leader of the expedition is Julie de Payer, whose father discovered Franz Josef Land in August, 1873, being in command of the ship Tegeloff, which was sent out under the auspices of the Austrian government. The ship was lost in the ice on the return journey, and the crew had to march 440 miles to Nova Zembla in the face of great difficulties. The land then discovered has since been visited by Leigh, Smith, Frederick, Jackson, the Duke of the Abruzzi, the Duc D'Orleans, the Prince of Monaco, Ziegler, Filaia and Nansen. They, however, left unexplored the more distant northeastern region, including Zichy Land and its group of islands. It is in this archipelago that the French explorer purposes to establish his headquarters. During the winter the explorers will carry out astronomical and other scientific work, and during the summer maps will be made, currents studied and biological and geological surveys made. Two aeolianes are to be taken by the expedition. CHECK FOR SHAKESPEARE. "Bard of Avon" Has $30 Coming to Him. New York.—If William Shakespeare or his shade will call at Columbia university he will find a check for $30 awaiting him. It arrived in an envelope, addressed to the registrar. There was a letter, but the registrar neglected that and scanned the check. It was 'drawn on a Brooklyn bank and payable to Shakespeare. The registrar rushed into the bursar's office, but that official didn't know how to get Shakespeare to indorse the check. The registrar reading the letter, found it was for young man who had registered for a course in Shakespeare and had sent the check for a tuition fee. London. The curious story is told here with a good deal of apparent authority that Enver Bey, the young head of the recent coup d'etat in Constantinople, leader of the Young Turks and most obstinate leader of the Ottoman forces against the Italians in Tripoli, is not a Turk at all by race, but a member of the ancient Polish nobility. A correspondent writing to the London Times, who was last in this capital his visiting card bore his name in Turkish characters, but underneath appeared his Polish name and title and the armorial bearings of his family. The correspondent adds that in conversation Enver Bey attempted no concealment of his Polish origin and, indeed, seemed rather proud of it. It is also said that Enver Bey is not even a Mohammedan, but in religion Catholic. This, however, hardly seems possible in view of the fact that his wife is a princess of Turkish royal blood. DRINK SEA WATER TO LIVE. Daily Tonic of Jersey Octogenarian Beats Sour Milk. Mansquan, N. J.—Sour milk as an antidote for age is not comparable with plain sea water, according to William K. Ireton, who takes it every day as a tonic. Ireton, who is eighty years old, looks about forty. He is proprietor of a local amusement hall and works ten or more hours a day. Up at 4 o'clock every morning, he hurries to the beach, where he dips up a glassful of water from the waves and quaffs it as if it were the elixir of life. Ireton says it does not taste good, and he does not like it, but it has the effect he desires. SEEKS PURSE OF CROESUS. Archaeologist Digging For Palace of World's Richest Man. Princeton, N. J.-Howard Butler of Croton Falls, professor of arts and archaeology in Princeton university, is now on the way to Smyrna, Asia, to make excavations at Sardis in quest of the pocketbook of Croesus, reputed to have been the richest man in the world. Professor Butler and his assistants will continue their search for several weeks. Sardis was a great commercial metropolis and the home of Croesus. Harvard's Namesake Gets Scholarship. Toronto.-When it became known in a meeting of the Toronto Harvard club that John Harvard, a nameake of the founder of the American university, lived in Wellland, Ont., and that he would soon be ready to enter college arrangements were made to award the club's scholarship to the young man. the genealogy of the Hemenway family in Canada to ascertain the ancestral ship of the Wellland youth to the founder of the university "COLD LIGHT" IS NEW INVENTION French Scientist Demonstrates His Illuminator. Professor Dussaud Places Discovery at Disposal of His Government, Which is Experimenting at Lighthouses With Great Success—Based on Principle of the Repose of Matter. Paris.—The "cold light" is a new invention which, it is predicted, will revolutionize all forms of illumination. Professor Branly informed the Academy of this discovery, giving the credit of his to Joseph pupil, Professor Dussaud. Before a distinguished company of ambassadors, academicians and the French aristocracy Professor Dussaud gave a demonstration of his invention. It is based on the principle of the repose of matter, the theory being that, like animal organisms, matter needs rest, or molecular equilibrium. It is known that if one pair of shoes are worn constantly by the average person they will last four months, but that two pairs of shoes, alternately, will last not eight but sixteen days. The "cold light" is an application of this principle to incandescent electric lamps, the light being concentrated on a single point by all the elements work- LIGHTHOUSE WHERE EXPERIMENTS ARE BEING CARRIED ON. ing successively and projected through a lens multiplying illumination a thousandfold. The advantages claimed for this light are: First.—That there is no danger of fire from it because it gives out no heat. Second.—That it requires 100 times less current, which can be generated by a tiny portable battery. Third—That it contains the ultra violet rays, requiring 100 times less electricity, and, with an inexpensive apparatus, can be used for moving pictures in schools, eliminating danger. Photographers are expected to abandon the "aerial light" attachment on a camera gives results with an exposure of one-fourth of the time needed for magnesium. This invention will be especially valuable for lighthouses, submarines and aerial navigation. Professor Dussaud has patroltically placed his discovery at the disposal of the war ministry, whose experiments at the ultraright lighthouse were conclusive. Professor Dussaud has mastered. Branly, as the first discoverer of the principle of wireless telegraphy, which he said was afterward put to practical use by Marconi. GUARDING PRINCE OF WALES Detectives Watch Suffragettes and Indian Students at Universities. Oxford, England—Scotland Yard detectives in relays are guarding the Prince of Wales night and day and shadowing his every movement. It is said that the vigilance of the detectives is for the twofold purpose of protecting his royal highness from attacks by suffragettes and from possible plots by Indian students in the universities. CUBAN NEGROES PLAN REVOLT Funds For Uprising Being Raised by Popular Subscription. Havana.—The negroes of this city have been donating 25 cents a month toward the financing of another uprising which they plan to start simultaneously, with a proposed revolt of the Liberalists. It is reported that the subscription is being made throughout the island. To Jail Navy. Grafters. Washington.—Criminal prosecution of the civilian contractors, as a sequel to the naval inquiry into alleged commissary "graft," in which the stewards gave said to share, is to be instituted soon. The stewards are said to have been granted immunity from prosecution for the evidence they gave in connection with the purchase of naval supplies. THE APPEAL KEeps IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, wasting no words. 3-It its correspondents are able and energetic. *POLES ONCE ON EQUATOR* Flammarion: Discusses a Discovery by the Scott Expedition. Paris—Camille Flammarion, the celebrated astronomer, discussing the statement that the Scott expedition found evidence that the south pole had twice been a temperate zone, said: "The evidence evidently relates to the discovery of fossils of fauna and flora such as have already been found in the arctic regions. These are taken by one school of theorists as proving that the poles once occupied the position of the equator and enjoyed a warm climate, while the two opposite points now on the equator, were frozen poles "The theory is that the obliquity of the earth, which, as every one knows, travels around the sun at an angle of 23 degrees, is liable to great variation. Thus from time to time during the millions of years the earth has existed there lives have changed from place to place. "But this is only a theory and one which the exact science of astronomy does not so far support." GOATS TO CHEAPEN LIVING. Cattlemen Declare Meat is As good as Beef and Less Costly. El Paso. Tex.-El Paso people and all other people in these United States who complain of the high price of beef in the retail markets should eat more meat. "It is cheaper and just as good when properly prepared and properly cooked," he said. He heard in cattle circles at times and one which is becoming more frequent. "Cattle prices are going to come down with a crash pretty soon if these continued sky high figures are not checked, because the people will quit buying beef," is another remark heard at times. "Goats—eat goat meat," says the goat man. On the Kansas City market a few days ago a bunch of 396 mozcooky yearling sheep, which averaged $3.53 a hundred pounds, sold for $3.53 a hundred dollars for the same market a shipment of 124 goats, which averaged seventy-four pounds, sold for $3.10 a hundred. HAS HAD NO SLEEP FOR TWENTY YEARS Boston.—A Harvard professor who has not slept for twenty years, but has taken his *rest* in the "twilight state" is the subject of investigations by the psychological laboratory of the university and the State Psychopathic hospital. The "twilight state," in which the subject retains consciousness of all that goes on about him, is declared to be a scientific relaxation more satisfying than sleep and restoring the bodily vigor in about half the time required by sleep. While the identity of the Harvard professor is kept secret, Professor Hugo Munsterberg, director of the psychological laboratory of the who is a personal friend of the sleeper educator, has made a close study of his case. Professor Munsterberg said his experience showed that it is scientifically possible to sleep without complete loss of consciousness. To assist in experiments at the State Psychopathic hospital on the "twilight state" a special easy chair has been constructed. It is described as a device to aid subjects to relax as "completely as a gallon of molasses on a slab of cold marble." MUMMY HAD AN AFFINITY. Letter Tells of "Unrighteous Love" In Egypt 222 B. C. San Francisco.—Through the finding of a love letter on the withered breast of a mummy in the Golden Gate park museum it was established that affinities reigned and scandal fouled in the days of the Ptolemy in Egypt. The missive fell out of the mummy's case as it was being placed in a new coffin. Translated it reads: Oh my Golden Poppy, long are the days when I see thee not. My heart is sick with love for thee. Carefully guard our unrighteous love. The woman died in 222 B. C. with the letter clutched to her heart. 1,176 MEN BITE ON LOVE BAIT Dead Letter Office Full of Answers to Mysterious Illinois Girl. Washington. There are letters in the dead letter division of the post office department for "Miss Z. X. Radcliffe, Elgin, Ill." The mysterious "Miss Radcliffe" wrote to the mayor of San Francisco some time ago and asked help to get a bushman who would appreciate a good girl and $30.000. Her letter was published in San Francisco papers. Answers rained into Elgin, but nobody called. Uncle Sam is looking after the lot that accumulated. Most of the 'episites contain photographs.

STORMY CAREER OF FELIX DIAZ DEFEATED MANY TIMES. Greatly Resembles His Uncle Porfirie In Personality and Deeds—More Liberal In Views Than Former Dictator. Appeals to Native Love of Spectacular—Just Escaped Execution. City of Mexico—Colonel Felix Diaz, whose attack on Madero led to General Huerta's election as provisional president, is one of the most remarkable personalities Mexico had ever produced. He is the nephew of Portio Diaz, who for more than thirty years was dictator of Mexico. His father was General Felix Diaz, who was slain in 1871 in the revolt of the Diaz faction against President Benito Juarez. Not only does the younger Diaz physically resemble his banished uncle, but their careers up to the present are remarkably parallel. Admirers of Portio Diaz have said that since Richard Coeur de Lion the world has produced no man of no thrilling a personal and military career as "the man of Mexico," as he was called. He was the hero of fifty pitched battles, a leader of the forlorn hope of Mexico against the trained armies of France in the war of the intervention, when Benito Juarez and his capital were being chased from pillar to post. Felix Diaz, as does his uncle, seems to bear a charmed life. In the six years he was chief of police of the City of Mexico his life was attempted a number of times. The Mexican character is boyish in love of the spectacular. It is a hero worshiping people. This latest exploit of Diaz in escaping from a death cell and guideloady showing himself at the head of an army will appeal to the characteristic trait of a people that love daring. COLONEL FELIX DIAZ whether in the bull ring or on the battlefield, and is likely to contribute the elan the cause might otherwise have wanted. Temperamentally the younger and the elder Dias are different. The old dictator, suspicious and intolerant, ruled his people with the "mano ferro," the iron hand. Felix was for a larger measure of personal freedom and more than once incurred his uncle's displeasure by the liberality of his views. Felix supported his uncle through the Madero revolution, but when the latter he used him to undermine the yoke with good reason. Before he organized the flashy little revolution that resulted in his capture and the immediate surrender of Vera Cruz he kept his rank of colonel in the regular army. While serving under Madero he was visited by envoys of disaffected leaders who represented the dreamer of Nuevo Leon, with none of the ability of Porfrio Diaz, was a worse tyrant than Diaz had ever been. He was assured of the support of the army if he would take the lead in a revolt. When he reached a decision—and he wasn't long about it—he resigned his commission. With the following of Grozco, Zapata and Agular promised him, a Diaz once more issued his "pronunciation." He proclaimed himself chief of the army, Mexico and took possession of the city. Cruz, every federal soldier in the garrison deserving to him, as well as the police, firemen and citizen volunteers. But the Madero government had been warned, and the loyal troops recaptured Vera Cruz after two hours of fighting and made Diaz prisoner. The order of the court martial was that Diaz should be shot at sunrise on the morning of Oct. 26. But when the news reached the City of Mexico there was dissension in the cabinet over what course the president should take. The majority, including the president's son, theanco Madero, the minister of finance, and the president's brother, who was taken by Diaz, insisted that he be shot. Without deciding just what to do Colonel Diaz was placed in prison at Vera Crum and later confined in the Santiago prison, from which he escaped. AVE YOU READ THE APEAL?

Before another issue of THE APEALE the entire machinery of this government will have passed into the control of the Democratic party, a condition which has not existed before, since the birth of the Republican party. To many of the white citizens of this country this condition of things will make little or no difference; but, to the "brother in black" it is filled with dire forebodings of evil. His chances for enjoying the rights and privileges vouchsafed by the constitution to all citizens, viz., "Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness," will, doubtless, be very much less than ever before. Under the rule of the Republicans, who made some professions of fairness and friendship (which, alas, were not substantiated fully by facts and acts), the black man had a very poor chance. So, what can be hoped for, from a party that has always opposed anything and everything tending toward "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness," for him? The peculiar conditions which existed at the last election, caused many Afro-Americans to vote for Democrats; and, it is hoped that this fact may tend toward keeping them from attempting to wipe their 12,000,000 black brothers off the face of the earth. We will see what we will see! Frank Baccus, an Afro-American believed to be 120 years of age, died in Reno, Nev., this week. He was quite a giant in stature and claims to have been in the Black Hawk war in 1832. He remembered the inauguration of President Madison in 1809, but contrary to the usual story, does not claim to have seen George Washington, though he was seven years old when Washington died. It is most sincerely hoped that the tuberculous cure of Dr. Friedmann will prove to be useful as he claims for it. But it should be ouchly tested before it is allowed to be sold to the public and that's what this government proposes to do. MEXICAN PEOPLE OF THREE CLASSES, MOSTLY INDIAN A STUDY of the Mexican people falls naturally into three divisions, for the population consists of people of purely Spanish descent, of mestizos, or half breeds of Spanish and Indian blood and of pure blooded Indians. Out of Mexico's 15,000,000 inhabitants one-half may be purely estimated to be mestizos. Although about one-fifth, or 3,000,000, of purly white descent, it is likely that not more than a tenth come under this head, since Indian blood permeates all classes. At the same time special difficulties are met in attempting to draw a dividing line between Indian and mestizo. Bryce chooses to estimate the number of Indians at 8,000,000 and the mestizos at 6,000,000. Included in Mexico's population is a foreign element, living about 75,000 people. The number of Indians in Mexico before the revolutionary troubles of the last year or two was estimated at almost 20,000. Spanish Oppression When the Spaniards arrived in Mexico they found a large sedentary population of natives cultivating the soil and trained to industry. These the conquerors turned into serfs, who were compelled to perform the arduous and to them most distasteful work of minification, too, was left to the Indians, for the farm or the field labor, or any kind of manual labor, for that matter, most distasteful to the white men. The pure white population increased hardly at all, because few new settlers came, but the Spaniards mixed with the natives, with the result that after several generations there was a considerable half breed population, even though some of the natives in the state of Oaxaca, have remained to this distinct from the white race and from each other. And it is this branch of the Mexican people, along with the pure blood descendants of some fifty aboriginal Indian tribes, that constitutes for the main part Mexico's problem in government. It is not a race problem in the sense of their being a color line Educated and well to do Indians hold high places in Mexico. In fact, President Benito Junarez, one of the country's great heroes, was a full blood Zapoteca, and Porfrio Diaz is proder of his Misteca ancestry than of the white blood be also claims. Nor does the half breed suffer any disability, social or political. Mestizos Imposed Ion. The Indians and mestizos, for the most part poor and ignorant, are little more than the raw material for citizens, and the upper class Mexicans use them for their own selfish purposes both in politics and business. The great weakness of Mexico's social system lies in the fact that there are two classes, an upper and a lower, a greater and a lesser number. A middle class, such as forms the great bulk of intelligent citizens in this country and in Europe, tends but slowly to appear. Upper class Mexicans are for the most part men of property. Their wealth, education and social position enable them to wield enormous power over the great laboring class of mestizos and Indians, whose work in the fields and mines makes possible the industrial conduction of the national industries. Of the present time are not far removed from serfdom, for their general poverty as a class and the land monopoly of the GUSTAVO MADERO "MOST HATED MAN IN MEXICO." Gustavo Madero, brother of President Madero, who was shot to death following his arrest, was known as "the most hated man in Mexico." He was accused of being the arch grafter of Mexico. Although he possessed a large private fortune, he was alleged to have taken many millions of pesos from the country's treasury. He was the "power behind the throne," but even to his brother he was accused of being a false counselor. He was held responsible by many for the birth of the opposition to Francisco Madero in discarding Emilio Vasquez Gomez, a hero of the Madero revolution, and making Jose Pino Suarez the vice president. While in New York two years ago during the Madero revolution he was accused of lining his own pockets in return for promises to certain oil promoters. He recently returned from a special mission to Japan. Gustavo Madero was about thirty-seven, good looking, well educated and engaging. He entertained lavishly and was popular in New York and Washington society. upper class place them under a sort of feudal regime. Nation Is Poor. Despite her great agricultural and mineral wealth, Mexico is a poor country in that her resources have been developed in such a manner as to bring little or no wealth to the great mass of inhabitants. The extensive scientific development of mines and plantations has been for the most part in the hands of foreigners and foreign companies. The lure of silver and gold ever since the days of Cortes has been more The Red Skinned Citizens Are Proud of Race—Nation Is Impoverished. MADERO AND SUAREZ HAD SIMILAR CHARACTERISTICS. Francisco I. Madero and Jose Pino Suarez, the president and vice president of Mexico, who were shot to death after being deposed, were largely similar in traits of character and capabilities. Madero, whose life story has been previously well outlined, was born Oct. 4, 1873. He was a member of an enormously wealthy family and received a diploma education. He was a dreamer and developed big theories about the welfare of his oppressed countrymen. He dared to rise against Diaz, and at first many thought him insane. In the end he conquered the dictator and became president. His rule lasted two years and was, as is seen in the present disturbances, unpopular. Jose Maria Pino Suarez was barely thirty-five years old and had never been heard of in public until the outbreak of the Madero revolt, save as a lawyer in Merida, Yucatan, where he had carried on a small practice. He over six feet tall, but of over six feet when he got an inkling of Madero's power, lead a revolution against Porfio Diaz he issued a small paper, or circular, in which he came out strongly for "reform." It did not take long for President Diaz's soldiers to trace the sheet to Suarez, and in 1900 he fed to San Antonio and later got into personal touch with Madero. They became fast friends at their first meeting. During the hardest battles of the Madero revolution Suarez was constantly in touch with the unfortunate leader. As soon as Diaz resigned Madero brought pressure to bear which resulted in Suarez being elected governor of Yucatan, from which office he was elevated to the vice presidency. During his short term as governor of Yucatan he became very popular among all factions. His kindly manner and honest face made friends for him right and left, and this popularity continued and increased while he occupied the posts of vice president and of federal secretary of education. of a curse than a blessing to Mexico. Agriculture must be the foundation of the greatness in the long run of any country, and, in view of the remarkable variations of climatic zones and the great wealth and variety of vegetation, agriculture, not mining, should have been Mexico's natural mainstay. It has been estimated that if the capital expended on mining in Mexico had been applied to the cultivation of the soil the country would be four times larger. However this may be, none can deny that the overemphasis on mineral production has hindered the proper development of the Mexican people. Few Small Landowners. James Bryce points out that the absence of that class of intelligent small landowners, which is the soundest and most stable element in the United States, is a misfortune for Mexico. The enormous landed estates—the largest single estate in the world is the Himalayan maharaja—to the enjoyment and enjoyment of the land which the white men wrested from the forbears of the peon. Yet there are only twenty people to the square mile, for Mexico is as large as Great Britain, France, Germany and Austria put together. The very size of the country, out of all proportion to the population, has proved a drawback to the people in their attainment of democratic government. Mountains, deserts and jungle help to increase the difficulty of intercommunication.

Floating Prisons Of the five ships used as floating prisons the confinement of refractory convicts in the penal colonies of Australia, but one, the Success, remains as a memorial to the hundreds of unfortunate wretches who suffered pain and death in the narrow, damp cells of the bulks. When a convict rebelled at the treatment accorded him in the quarries he was "sent to the bulks" for at least two years, there to be fastened with ball and chain and fed on bread and water only. The irons and dogging whips may still be seen on the Success, which is anchored in the harbor at Sydney - New York POLAR DISASTER STIRS SUSPICION Victims' Relatives May Demand Investigation. FUEL SHORTAGE A PUZZLE. Either Food Evaporated or Explorer's Caches Were Tapped by Return Parties, According to Authorities—Lieutenant Evans and Survivors on Terra Nova Refuse to Discuss Details. Littleton, New Zealand—If any one of the supporting expeditions was in any way responsible for the death of Captain Scott and his four companions within eleven miles of safety it will not be known until the personal diaries and records of the dead men are placed in the hands of their families. The reticence of Commander E. R. Evans and the other survivors aboard the Terra Nova has excited the suspicion of those who visited the relief ship that there was some sordid story back of what at first seemed a tale heroic in every detail. Commander Evans said that no records found with the dead would be THE MILITARY OFFICER CAPTAIN ROBERT F. SCOTT AND CREW ON TERRA NOVA. made public until they were given over to the families of the men. Captain Scott in his last message to the public vaguely hinted that his return to shelter was impeded by shortage of fuel, for which, he said, he "could not account." If the diaries of the other dead men make similar comment their families, it was hinted, might demand an investigation through any of three channels—the admiralty, the Royal Geographical society and the British Antarctic society. At frequent intervals on his way south Captain Scott left caches of blubber and other supplies to sustain him on the return trip. On two occasions on his final dash the commander sent back return parties. Then from latitude 87 degrees 30 minutes of three men, under the leadership of Commander E. R.Evans. In his last message Captain Scott commented pathetically on the shortage of fuel and food in his supply denots. Experts on polar exploration agreed that there was one of two possible explanations—Captain Scott's depots were tapped by the return parties or the blubber evaporated. The correspondent of the Daily Chronicle at Christchurch, New Zealand, sent a dispatch telling of his unsuccessful efforts to get the leaders of the expedition on these subjects. Lieutenant Evans, a member of other officers of the party, was communicative until fuel and Petty Officer Evans were touched on. Then, he said, all the officers became suddenly reticent. Lieutenant Evans said the fuel shortage was hardly of sufficient importance for a newspaper to deal with and added. "I think you had better not touch upon it." The officers say the bodies of Scott, Wilson and Bowers could have been brought home, but all agreed that it would be more fit to leave them where they were and died. The motor sledges proved a failure and frequently broke down. When the last one collapsed everybody was pleased. The diaries of all the members of the Scott party who lost their lives are intact and will be sent to their relatives. Lieutenant Evans and others discovered the Scott book on his discovery of the pole and the experiences of his party. England's Largest House. The proud distinction of, being the largest house in England is generally accorded to Lord Fitzwilliam's Yorkshire seat, Wentworth Woodhouse. Of this house it is said that the three principal entrances are so far distant from each other that visitors are advised to bring three hats with them, one to be kept at each point of egress. A house which is 600 feet long, has a hall in it, and average suburban villas could be comfortably placed around a room for guests to enjoy. The house is certainly large enough to satisfy any ambition ambition. Exchange LAD'S WIRELESS DEVICE CATCHES ALL WORLD NEWS Traction Magnate is Regaled Each Day With Son's Big Reports. A prominent traction-magnate is one man in Olean, N. Y., who is reasonably independent of the morning paper, as far as the more important paper is concerned. He has no private press wire in his residence, but every evening when he arrives at his home he finds that his son, who is a student in the local high school, has prepared for him a bulletin report of all that is being sent from the great wireless stations along the coast. The young man, who is an enthusiastic student of electrical subjects, has his own wireless receiving apparatus in his room, and the antenna are stretched from a tall house to a house. The apparatus is powerful enough to receive messages from Cape Cod and other points along the coast and from as far west as Chicago. The youngster has developed considerable skill as an operator, and each evening he gathers the news as it is fanned out through space and carefully jots down the items of interest for his father's perusal. The report of Feb. 12, for example, was in part as follows: "Weather — Fair, cold, diminishing northwesterly winters Thursday. Mexico City — Battle between rebels and federals continued today. Both sides open heavy artillery firing. Rebels have every effort to storm palace. Three rebels re-enlisted for Diaz, German and American ambassadors demanded that they be given back ships of the American navy are on the way to the scene. Washington—President held a midnight meeting with his cabinet last night concerning the conditions in Mexico and ordered the first brigade of the first division, about 15,000 strong, to be prepared for an expedition into Mexico at any minute." CHICKS SENT IN PARCEL POST. The Little Fowls Die En Route and Molasses Explodes. Imagine the chargin of a perplexed parcel post clerk when a package of eggs are scrambled en route to the addresssee, a pair of young chicks die in their native element and a gallon of molasses explodes, giving the parcel the appearance of Mount Vesuvius in action. William Allen of the Denver postoffice said that he handled such a parcel and is confident that its odor would drive the ordinary clerk to the eighth zone. He was attracted to the parcel in question when a strong scent vitiated the air in the parcel post department. He found the parcel ooing over other packages and was removing it to the furnace when the molasses explosion occurred. Believing the parcel contained an infernal machine, Allen dropped it and the two chicks fell out. COW GETS RIDE IN LIMOUSINE Records For Novel Transportation Broken in Minneapolis. All records for novel methods of transportation were eclipsed recently by the achievement of Mrs. M. C. Lamoreaux of Minneapolis, when she brought Lily, her bloodied Jersey cow, from Lake Minnetonka to her town home in Limoineuse. When Lily went to the Limoineuse lake home she made the journey on foot. When the family decided to return to the city recently the cow "had to come along." As the walking looked difficult for the blooded animal she was hoisted into the limoineuse. Lily, misunderstanding the purpose of her caretakers, rebelled against entering the car. She kicked a little variegated machine, but in she went. Then Lily, too, got to get out. This conflict with the ideas of her attendants, so she was tied. NO GOATS BY PARCEL POST. Attempt is Made to Send Billy Through Mails. The limitations of the parcel post system are not yet understood by everybody. You may send babies and bees, but, as one Philadelphia postal clerk puts it, "I'll be darned if you can send a mail." The clerk was busily at work in the office when W. A. Renner, a resident of the Hattfield section, walked in, leading a full grown Billy by the horns and asked for parcel post stamps to send the animal to a consignee on "Route No. 2, Hattfield." Amazed, the clerk explained that bees were the only live stock he could send or was permitted to receive for shipment and afterbought hurriedly added, "You can't send anything the weights more than eleven pounds anyhow."

Allen tendered her a birthday surprise party at her residence on St. Anthony and happened that Tuesday was the 14th birthday anniversary for little Gladys Kemp, and she came in for some of the favors. Both Mrs. Allen and Miss Kemp were the recipients of some nice presents. The evening was delightfully spent in feasting, music and other amusements. About twenty persons were present. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Kelly celebrated Washington's birthday last Saturday evening by entertaining at a little "Flinch" party some of their friends and neighbors at their residence, 950 St. Anthony ave. A very enjoyable time was had by all present, viz.: Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Lobbins, Mr. and Mrs. D. F. Green, Mr. and Mrs. Ware, Mrs. Bloha Dodd, and Colla Combs, Messrs. Roy and Fielding Combs and Dr. W. T. Mitchell. Refreshments were served and the jolly party left for their homes at a late hour. Last Saturday was not only the birthday anniversary of George Washington, the Father of his Country, but was also the seventh anniversary of the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. F. C. Spillers of Rondo street, so a number of their neighbors and friends got up a little surprise party for them. There were about twenty persons present who had a very jolly time. The table was profusely and beautifully decorated with Washington mementoes. Music was furnished by the new $250 Victrola. All had a very lovely time until a late hour, when refreshments were served.

C. L. SMITH, Phone Dale 5413, 476 W. Central ave. While Looting a Store in St. Paul Friday Night. On last Friday night about 10:30 the police made a great capture of an Afro-American burglar named Ed. L. Williams, alias Ed. Thomas, who had broken into Burkhardt's sporting goods store, 319 Robert street. It was discovered that some one had broken into the store and the officers surrounded the building and several entered the building, but could find no one. Finally the burglar was discovered hiding outside of a third story window, lying on the sill. He was pulled in and taken to the station. The capture was aid greatly by the police. I was greatly impressed by St. Paul and James Harden and Charles Welborne of Minneapolis, who by chance were in the vicinity and the capture puts a feather in each of these three Afro-American officers. Detective Quarles succeeded after several days in getting a confession from Thomas of having committed several other robberies. Thomas came to St. Paul in December and was rooming on Sherburne ave. When his room was searched several thousands of dollars worth of stolen goods, a woman with who Thomas was connected and a pawn broker, who bought the stolen goods, are in jail to await the trial.

We clip the following from one of our exchanges to warn our delinquent subscribers what a hot time they will have if they fail to pay their newspaper bills. The same fate awaits our slow-paying advertisers: "An editor who died of starvation was being escorted to Heaven by an angel sent for that purpose. "May I just glance in at the other place before we ascend to eternal happiness?" So they went below and skirmish around, taking in the sights. It so happened that the angel lost track of the editor and went around Hades hunting him. He found him sitting by an enormous furnace, fanning him with rapture upon a crowd of lost souls in the fire. Over the furnace was a sign of words, "Delinquent subscribers" editor, "I'm not going. This is heaven 'Come,' said the angel, 'we must be going now.' 'You go on,' said the enougn for me." As there have been so many tales and malicious rumors, I aemt it necessary to make this statement to correct them all. There have been so many unscrupulous persons who have made it their business to go from place to place; the schools, the courts, the judges and lawyers, the even my employers, and wrote to their families, but in each case they have brought condemnation on themselves, and those they were supposed to represent. In neither case have they offered any apology for the wrongs of those they were supposed to represent or made any plea for the innocent children in the case. The past record of those who have gone to and written to the various individuals, as compared with that of mine, it did more harm than good for the cause they were supposed to represent, and as they seem to be willing to represent, and as innocent children on their hands, am not, and will not be guilty of any of the sins that might fall upon them. And the worst feature of it all is, that they have represented themselves as being representatives of or being sent by the Church, which I never will believe to be true, because I know that at least some of the officers and members of the Church have enough to stand for what is right, when innocent children are involved. One of their contentions is that there was over $700 mortgage against the property that I gave the children. There was $435 against the place to be paid off beginning September 26, 1910, at $16.66 per month, without interest, and that would mature in its natural course September 26, 1912, which made a total of about $435 and according to the agreement with the lender the rent was waived over for the children the flats should have paid $0.50 each and the small brick $10.50, which aggregated over $50 a month, and for the thirteen months that they have received payment, thus far, would make over $650 that the place has earned, and, by deducting the $435, leaving a balance of over $215, which would more than pay the taxes and other incidental expenses for the year. If any one can show receipts for any money spent on this place over and above the amount received by them for rent, I will willingly refund the balance. There is another false and malicious claim, sworn to under oath, that I had caused Mrs. Minor to be discharged from her various occupations during the last twelve months. I have placed in the hands of Mr. J. H. Loomis and J. B. Johnson $50 to deliver to any individual or set of individuals who can prove that the faction that I have directly or indirectly requested or demanded any dismissal of Mrs. Minor or that her name has even been mentioned to them during that time. I will give you the names of those, as far as I know, whom she was supposed to be working for. W. A. Hillyard, C. H. Miller, Pilgrim Baptist church, St. James A. M. E. Church, Mrs. Nellie McCullough, and as far as Mrs. Livingston, 458 St. Peter, is concerned, I am not, and never was on speaking terms with her. On Central ave., she had about 28 or 30 scholars, which aggregated about $15 per week, whose names I can produce if necessary. If it is a fact that she has been dismissed from these various places, which they claim, and I were not in any way responsible for it, I think they should ascertain the cause and inform the public why and place the blame where it rightfully belongs. If this mortgage and the expenses of the place have been paid by others, which several claim that they have, what became of the money that was earned by the property? I had to pay bills that were against the property to save liens which parties receiving the rent refused to pay. The agreement to give the property to the children for their support and that the earnings from the property would pay all debts against it and all expenses in the future, was their own provision. The $50 above mentioned will remain with Mr. J. R. Johnson and Mr. J. H. Loomis for 15 days, which I hope will be ample time for those who can prove their statement and claim it. I remain.

If there is a one cent postage stamp on your paper, that means that you have not paid your subscription for more than a year, and the Government compels you to send each to the papers to delineate subscriptions. Now if you are honorable and subservient, you will come and pay what you owe. It certainly does not reflect any credit on you to have us pay one cent on each paper we send to you and for which you have not paid. Is this fair and square? Ames Lodge No. 106 I. B. P. O. E.

We clip the following from one of our exchanges to warn our delinquent subscribers a hot time they will have if they fail to pay their newspaper bills. The same fate awaits our slow-paying advertisers: "An editor who died of starvation was being escorted to Heaven by an angel sent for that purpose. "May I just glance in at the other place be pleased with my happiness. So they went below and hung around, taking in the sights. It so happened that the angel lost track of the editor and went around Hades hunting him. He found him sitting himself and gazing into himself and gazing into a crowd of lost souls in the fire. Over the furnace was a sign bearing the words, "Delinquent subserviors" editor, not im going. This is heaven now, and the angel, "we must be going now, 'we go on'," said the encomer for me." TO WHOM IT MAY CONGER. As there have been so many false and malicious claims and necessary to make this statement to correct them all. There have been so many unscrupulous persons who made it their business to go from court to court, from courts, the judges and lawyers, and even my employers, and wrote to their families, but in each case they brought condemnation on themselves, so they were supposed to represent. In neither case have they offered any apology for the wrongs of those they were supposed to represent or made any plea for the innocent children in the case. In the case, of those who have gone to and written to the various individuals, as compared with that of mine, it did more harm than good for the cause they were supposed to represent, and as they seem to be willing to face their God with the blood of innocent children on their hands, I am not, and I am guilty of any of that might be wrong. And the worst feature of it all is, that they have represented themselves as being representatives of or being sent by the Church, which I never will believe to be true, because I know that at least some of the officers and members of the Church have scruples to stand for when innocent children are involved. One of their contents is that there was over $700 mortgage against the property that I gave the children. There was $435 against the place to beginning September 26, 1910, at $1,684 and that would mature in its natural course September 26, 1912, which made a total of about $435 and according to the agreement with the tenants in the place at the time the rent was turned over for the children, it was $1,684 and that the small brick $10,50, which aggregated over $50 a month, and for the thirteen months that they have received payment, thus far, would make over $550 that the place has received in the form of a balance of over $215, which would more than pay the taxes and other incidental expenses for the year. If any one can show receipts for any money spent on this place over above the amount received by them, I will willingly refund the balance. There is another false and malicious claim, sworn to under oath, that I had caused Mrs. Minor to be discharged from her various occupations and that I have placed them have placed in the hands of Mr. J. H. Loomis and J. B. Johnson $50 to deliver to any individual or set of individuals who can prove to their satisfaction that I have directly or indirectly requested or demanded any discharged from their duties, has even been mentioned to them during that time. I will give you the names of those, as far as I know, whom she was supposed to be working for. Hillary, C. H. Miller, Pilgrim Baptist church, St. James A. N. B. Church, Mrs. Nellie McCullough, and as far as Mrs. Livingston, 458 St. Peter, is concerned, I am not, and never was on speaking terms with her. While she was living on Central ave., she had about 28 or 30 scholars, which aggregated about $15 per week, and whose names I can produce if necessary. If it is a fact that she has been dismissed from these various places, which they claim, and I were not in any way responsible for it, I think they should ascertain the cause and the public way and face the blame where it rightfully belongs. If this mortgage and the expenses of the place have been paid by others, which several claim that they have, what became of the money that was earned by the property? I had to pay bills that were against the property to the earnings from the jobs receiving the rent refused to pay. The agreement to give the property to the children for their support and that the earnings from the property would pay all debts against it and all expenses in the future, was their own proposition. The above mentioned will remain with Mr. J. B. Johnson and Mr. J. H. Loomis for 15 days, which I hope will be ample time for those who can prove their statement and claim it. I remain.
