l.. w. Buck of the Fruit Union said
that If 1t can be shown that this buying
IN method is practiced by any reputable
commission man, such merchant should
pc denounced by all growers. II all fruit
business IN San Francisco could be done
by six men there would surely be better
prices for the fruit growers. He favored
the plan suggested, and said that fruit

THE MIDDLE MEN.
Mr.. Lubin remarked that if st. Paul
and the prophet Moses could be brought
down from Heaven and induced to go
into the commission business there might
be some hope for honesty in the COM
mission business, but not otherwise un-
less the present conditions of the business
are changed. The temptations are too
great and sufficient to make any man
dishonest.
James Shinn related the rise and fall of
the old Fruit-Growers' Association,
whose aims were similar to those now
talked over. The elder Llewelling of
Napa and Messrs. Earl of Sacramento and
Smith of Petaluma were in that associa-
ton. The growers did what they could
then, but the middle men are here yet.
He questioned if all commission men are
dishonest, and favored the idea talked of
II II could be proved practicable.

Mexican Indian villages.
Frank 6. Carpenter.

Many Of the Indians Of Mexico live IN
villages of their own. They hold their
lands in common, cultivate them together
and divide the proceeds. These villages
have their own customs. and while under
the general government, they have certain
regulations which govern their own peo-
pie. All over Mexico the Poems, AztecS or
Indians however they may be called
have traditions, queer customs and super
stitions. many = which have come down
from the DAYS OF the Montezumas. and il
IS a wonder that some ethnolocist does not
make them a study. There are, II IS said,
s hundred different dialects in use among
them today. and though the most OF them
speak Spanish, nearly all speak their own
language rs well. They are a people of
more than ordinary culture, great lovers of
music. easily governed and very polite.
They exhibit great love towards each
other and in their families. ana the ques-
ton as 10 their future Is one of the ques-
tiens Of the Mexico Of today They have
produced many good men. President
Juarez, one Of the greatest men Of Mexlco's
past; was pure Indian. President pIaE
has Indian blood in his veins. Ihe Mexican
congress contains a number OF pare In
dlans. and the great Mexico of the future
IS bound 10 he greatly influenced by its
Aztec blood.
