VALENTINE DEMOCEA'i ] . M. RICE , Publisher. VALENTINE. NEBRASKA TO DIAZ OPENS WAY FOR PEACE IN MEXICO IN STATEMENT * ? TO PEOPLE. NEW TRUCE TO BE DECLARED Reserves Right to be Judge of Situa tion , and Says He Will Retire When Assured that Anarchy Will not Fol low in Wake of His Capitulation. Mexico City. Gen. Porfirlo Diaz has issued a manifesto to the people of ( Mexico declaring his intention to re- eign the presidency as soon as peace is restored. In this manner the pres ident has virtually acceded to the de mands of Francisco I. Madero that he make announcement of such intention. As towhen peace is actually re stored , Gen. Diaz reserves the right to be the judge. In the words of the manifesto it will be "when his con- fcience tells him that he will not leave "his " country in anarchy. " The president said his determina tion not to relinquish the presidency at this time was not due to vanity or love of power , because , as he pointed out , power at this time had no attrac tion , accompanied as it is by tremendous deus recponsibiliteis and worry. He said he was prompted solely by a de sire to conserve the best interests of his country. FAILS TO SMASH DEADLOCK. Joint Assembly of Colorado Has Adjourned. Denver , Colo.

DEFENDS DETECTIVE BURNS Says Fact of Men Being Union La borers Is No Excuse for Attack on the Prosecution Mayor and Offi cials Receive Threats. New York. In the course ol a signed article in the forthcoming Outlook dealing witfi the Los Angeles Times dynamiting , under the title , "Murder Is Murder , " Col. Theodore Roosevelt says : "There is one feature of the devel opments as regards the arrest of cer tain alleged labor men in connection wiih the dynamite outrage perpetrat ed against the Los Angeles Times to which especial attention should be called. "If the explosion was not an acci dent , but the deliberate act of any man or men , it was an outrage of das tardly Iniquity , for it was one of these crimes In which the murderer , in order to gratify his spite against an Individual , not merely wrecked that individual's property , but with callous indifference tak'es the lives of scores of innocent people as an inci dent to the achievement of his sin ister and criminal purpose. "The men responsible for dynamit ing the Los Angeles Times building are responsible not only for the wreck of the newspaper offices , but for the loss of many lives "The arrest was' made in cense * quence of testimony secured by Mr. Burns , who has been Mr. Heney's right-hand man in bringing to justice grafters who violated the law of the United States in Oregon and grafters who violated the laws of California In San Francisco. He has proceeded with impartial severity against the most influential politicians and the richest business men. TTt' happens ( hat , § men whom he has norarre'sted are members of ; a labor organization , just as men whom he formerly arrested were members of the Republican or Democratic par ties or of great and wealthy corpora tions. "It would have been a wicked thing In the former cases with which Mr. Burns had to do , for leading Repub licans or Democrat's ' to combine to break him down and support the ac cused merely because the accused be longed to their political parties ; it weald have been a wicked thing for big capitalists and big business men to make common cause with the cap italists against whom he proceeded , merely because they were capitalists. "In exactly the same spirit I state the convictions of The Outlook in ex pressing Jts. hearty reprobation of the conduct "ot those tabor leaders , who , without waiting to know anything of the Jacts of the -case , have at once flown -publicly to the defense of the alleged dyamiters whom Mr. Burns has siow arrested , and who talk about the 'arrest as toeing part ot a con- spitacy against labor unions. " "No worse --service - can be rendered. iy labor uu&on leaders to the cause oT unionism han that which they ren- ' 8fer when tL'hey seek to identity the cause of unionism with the cause of any man guilty of a murderous attack v-t this nature. "I have .no idea whether the men arrested ra. Mr. Burns' statements are or are ncft.-guilty ; the labor leaders in question &ave no idea whether or not they are. "They 'are entitled to an absolutely fair tria-L If they have no money to provide tcounsel for themselves , then it woulfi be entirely proper for any body of men to 'furnish them the requisite funds , simply as an incident in securing them a fair trial. But it s grossly Improper to try to create a Dublic ojpinion in faror of the arrested nen simply because the crime of vhich fihey are accused is committed igalnst a capitalist or a corporation , ind because the men who are charged vith committing it are members of a abor iimion.

K.'S LORIMER PROBE SENATE COMMITTEE VOTES MON. EY FOR AN INQUIRY. La Foilctte's Resolution Calling For New Investigation Will Come Up For Action Before Senate. Washington. The committee of audit and control ot the contingent ex penses of the senate decided to report back to the senate the La Follette resolution for the reopening of the Lorlmer case with a statement that the contingent fund of the senate is sufficient to defray the expenses of any Investigation the senate may or der. But the committee specifically an nounced that it had not passed upon | the merits of the case , and did not feel that it had a richt to'do so. In the report which will be submit ted to the senate the five members of this committee declare that their ac tion in reporting the La Follette meas ure to the senate has nothing to do with its merits. The committee takes the position that its only duty lies in providing the funds for an investiga tion , should the senate decide that there ought to be a new inquiry. Whether there should be such an in quiry , and if so , whether it should be made by the standing committee on privileges and elections or by a spe cial committee , are problems which the committee on contingent expenses declares it has no authority to an swer. Springfield , 111. What Chairman Helm described as the last public hearing of the bribery committee , un less Attorney Healy should produce more witnesses , was held here. The committee spent twenty minutes In terrogating C. A. Taylor and W. T. Cable , both of Harrisburg , 111. , but obtained no evidence of value from either. Both denied any knowledge of the use of money in connection with Lorimer's election , but Taylor testi fied he had heard that Representative York might get a federal appointment by voting for Lorimer.
