One week ? 15 One month 50 One year 6 00 SATURDAY - - DECEMBER. 2, 1899 PRESIDENT FOR LIFE. Next year Porfirio Diaz will be chosen .president of the republic of Mexico for the sixth time, says the Telegram. There will he no doubt or trouble about his re-election, as would be the case m this country. Owing to a clause in the Mexican constitution, he missed a little time in 1880, his next friend, Gonzalez, holding the office nominally until the constitution could be fixed. So, for about thirty years Diaz has been not only the president, but the real ruler of Mexico, and will be so, if he chooses, till his death. Though now seventy years old, he is still strong physically and mentally, and may live to be as old as Bismarck or Gladstone did. Diaz occupies at once an unique and an enviable position. He is the only man who has made a pronounced and continued success of government in any Spanish-American country. The result proves that he must be a remarkable man, one of great executive ability and almost a genius in government. His success is due, if two or three characteristics may be particularized, to his understand ing of the people, his conception of the benefits of foreign capital and enterprise in the country, and his military ability. He is courageous and firm, yet he is essentially (,a man of the people." Though exercising almost the powers and privileges of a dictator, he zealously guards the interests o! the common people, and has chosen manv of his advisers from am on 3 their ranks. Though the re ligion of the country is Catholic, he lias not allowed the church to infringe upon the civil government; though swift and stern in suppressing in cipient revolutions, he has permitted and encouiaged personal liberty in a high degree. Encouraged by his statesmanship, hundreds of millions of dollars from England, France, Germany, Holland, Belgium and the United States have qund employment in .tho develop ment of Mexico's great natural le sources, the results being visible in railroads, factories, development of mines, and improved agriculture, employing tens of thousands of the native people, and rapidly multiply ing the wealth of the republic. f With tranquility and prosperity at home and friendly relations with all other nations, and having made Mexico respected and prosperous above all other Spanish-American countries, that republic does well to keep Diaz as its ruler, and it will be fortunate If, when ho pays tho last debt to nature, one as firm and strong and wise can be found to take his place.
