' o nnd M'wngu) U&rt- UIJI' r,ll""v FORFIRIO DIAZ ASTI?ONO man and in many ways a remarkable man passed aAVay when Porfirio Diaz breathed his last in Paris recently. Ruling spirit of Mexico for over a third of a century, with powers of absolute monarch, he had the greatest of opportunities for. service to his nation and humanity. That ho missed his opportunity is proven by his death in exile, execrated by his countrymen, while tho nation he ruled by the strong arm-is rapidly approaching anarchy. During Diaz' regime he was haled as a reat and en lightened statesman, even as a benefactor. The nation was apparently prosperous as if modernized. Vet the' prosper ity and advancement were only a thin venet'r over its wretchedness. The gospel of force and greed ruled Mexico. Diaz' ideals were the feudal ideals. Might replaced right. The logical outcome of miaiiHe of power in reflected in the chaos that has followed the removal of repression. Tyranny invariably mil its a nation lor government. Injustice ever breeds rebellion and anarchy. I)iaz has left Mexico more miserable than be found it, and the fruits of his reign sowed the seeds of diBcord for futurity. Kar from being the savior of his nation, Diaz became its oppressor. History must regard him as a common tyrant, bent on selfisdi ends, instead of a benefactor of huinaiiitv. The prosperity of a mil ion rests on (he prosperity, wel fare and advancement of the masses. Diaz never compre hended this, fie substituted the feudal idea that the nation's welfare rested on the prosperity of the classes, in the creation and perpetuation of privilege, in the subjuga tion and degredation of the people. The government he created was an oligarchy of privilege. The many wore robbed for the few.. The solidarity of the nation, in conse quence, w;is an illusion' that the first breath of adversity dissipated.. What did Diaz do for the petiple of Mexico? I In con fiscated their common and pueblo holdings for his officers and he reduced the owners to peonage a'nd slavery. Ho perpetuated and extended the Spanish systom of spolia tion and added a new class of oppressors.. The natural re sources and heritage of an undeveloped nation he bartered away for foreign gold and onlv object was to loot the While the haciendas grew in extent the people grew in poverty. The wealth of fhe classes was in sad contrast to the squalor of the masses. The superficial culture and beauty of his capital were a mockery on the ignorance mid superstition of the nation. Knowledge, ever a foe to tyranny, was banished to keep the multitude in subjection. The' huge undeveloped resources of Mexico and the open door to their acquisition brought the spoilers from every laud to prey upon the nation. Vast tracts of land, great mineral belts, immense forest areas, went as "con cessions" and the followers of Diaz became wealthy as the nation became poorer. His dictatorship might be called tho triumph of graft with Diaz tho master grafter an ideal commercial regime. Diaz might have improved people, lie might have educated them. He might have materially, socially and intellectually advanced tliem but he was content to exploit them. Jle might have ranked as one of the world's great patriots, as the redeemer of Mex- tyrant, blind to his great opportunity to uplilt humanity and found an enduring nation.
