that while Captain Pamphlet was
to be commended for hla reacue of

activities as a rum runner were a
challenge to the laws of the Unit

from the executive rather than
from the courts.
Captain Pamphlet's attorney In
dicated that an appeal would be
made to President Cooll:igt;. More

the petition for pardon, U was
said.
Captain Pamphlet must actually
begin serving his sentence before

MEXICO CITY, Dec. 17. Colo
nel Chanes A. Lindbergh, Ameri
ca's good-will air ambassador, to
day started an exceedingly busy
week en'l which will le filled with
Mexican demonstrations of admira
tion. The first number on the week
end program was a great popular
demonstration In his honor this
morning In the Mexico uity stadi
um where 30,000 or more spectat
ors gathered for a public fete ar
ranged by the department of edu
cation. , : lt .
On the program was a series of
songs, drills, dances and tableaux
by from 0,000 to 10,000 school, chil
dren of Mexico City's public
schools eager to perform before
the American air hero. President
Call en, American Ambassador
Dwight W. Morrow and a large
body of prominent officials.
Although Mexico's schools had
closed for the Christmas holiduy
before Colonel LindhRi-gh's flight,
the Department of Education Is
sued or-iers an soon as the Ameri
can airman hopped off from Wash
ington that all teachers and stu
dents should call off the holidays
and report to their schools, to pre
pare a great demonstration.
Secretary of Education Pulg
Ca mi u rune and Under-Secretary
Moises Suenz within a lew days
succeeded hi organizing one of the
greatest gatherings of Mexican
school children that the capital
bus ever H?en, for a public demon
stration. The studlum which seats about
30,000 persons began to swarm
with people early this morning,
many being there with the flrat
streak of dawn. Groups of school
children marching in formnnuu
from their classes and schools be
gan to arrive several hours before
the program was scucduleu lu
opeu. , :
Crowds along the route to the !
stadium were larger than have!
been attracted by any bull fight, !
any person or occasion, with the
exception of the huge throngs that j
Colonel Lindoergh himself attract j
l-U on tho dny of his dramatic ar
rlvul at the Valbuena Flying Field.
. Not satisfied with making the
day of his arrival a public holi
day, President Guiles issued a pro
clamation making today a public
holiday, also. Ail government , in
flees were closed as well as many
business establishments, . i
Tomorrow morning Colonel Lind
bergh expects to attend a "churio"
exhibition arranged in his honor
by tho Nn tional Association of
Churros, or Mexican horsemen, i"
At noon tomorrow Lindbergh
probably will review from tne bal
cony of the national palace a pa
rade organised by' the Mexican re
gional federation of labor. More
than 80,000, some predict as many
us 1&0.000 workmen will parade us
an expression of the admiration
and at lection tor the American
filer.
After the labor parade. Colonel
Lindbergh will lunch at the Amerl
cuu embassy and unless present in
dications change, will go to a bull
fight Sunday afternoon, not as a
purt of his ofliclul program, but in
response to an invitation of the
management of tho bull ring.

production in agriculture.
The total value of agricultural
exports Increased 122 per. cent for
the period 1000-1904 to tho period
192-2C, he Bald, while the value of
all other exports increased 338 per
cent.
"Since agriculture Ib becoming
less an Industry and more depen
dent on the foreign market,'.' Bald
Jardlne, "it is becoming increas
ingly important to agriculture that
protection should be maintained
against -foreign competition in our
markets.
"Those who, unthinkingly or in
a snlrlt of political-revenge, would
wreck our protective system in the
alleged Interest of agriculture,
should stop to think what lt would
really mean. Competition of for
eign agricultural products In our
markets would be keenly felt by
our farmers and agriculture would
surely suffer with the rest because
of that instability of commercial
relations which drastic tariff
changes would create.

Heavy shipments to California
