¡Mira nomás! Los Aristocrats

Para finales de marzo de 1911 los levantamientos armados en diferentes partes del país hacían que las tropas del General Porfirio Díaz apenas pudieran contener la grandes ciudades de México. En un intento por detener la oleada revolucionaria, el dictador dio comienzos a sus promesas de reformas, el 1 de abril (día en que se tomó esta foto) en su informe anual a la Nación dijo que ya no habría reelección, que devolvería su autonomía a los municipios; destituyó a algunos gobernadores y jefes políticos impopulares y se modificó su gabinete (esta foto), aunque José Ives Limantour permaneció como Secretario de Hacienda. El 12 de abril Ramón Corral, el impopular Vicepresidente, fue persuadido de dejar el país. Estas promesas y cambios no frenaron a los revolucionarios. Dr. Roberto Duarte

"In the winter of 1917-18 [Reid] made a semi-official speaking tour of the United States of America for the war effort, but became ill at St Louis in February and again in April after returning to London. In July he took part in a debate on Irish affairs, moving an important amendment to defuse a motion condemning the government's policy. He died on 13 September 1918 of cerebral thrombosis, survived by his wife, who the previous year had been appointed G.B.E. for work on behalf of convalescent servicemen, and their two sons and daughter." -- Australian Dictionary of Biography Online
