Mexico does not progress very rapidly.
There are many reasons for this, but
since the development. of railroads in
that country we SIRE beginning 10 ind
out something. A, American who quite
lately cHmc from Mexico states that 'ue
Mexicans have few mann .acturr. and
no modern machinery; that he ha, seen
$ thousand men and boys st work in =
field harvesting with sickles; that here
tofore there have been very fcw compan-
les and firms in Mexico, rs they have
had great distrust of railway or any
other corporations; that on account of
this dlstruSt, money accumulated Is
boarded and rendered useless by its
owners and to the communities in which
they reside; that he knows of one family
that has two hundred and fifty thousand
dollars slowed away in barrels; that
there is only one bank in Mexico, which
is owned by Englishmen; and that the
only thing approaching in character to
. bank authorized or established by the
government is n large pawn shop, which
makes advances on various articles.
These brief statements indicate at once
the directions in which progress is most
essential. and the deficiencies which, to
n great extent, will probably be remedicd
by the enterprises in which n number OF
our countrymcn are Interested.
