trict
For some time there has been delay
ON the border Of the United States and
Mexico IN the transmission Ut the
mails. Several months ago MIR. Teach

tend meeting Of the superIntcndents
Of the railway mail service and there

lay NJ malls ON the border

Mexican officials quite willing to enter
Into any arrangement that would cN-

Of MIR Teachout to Mexico beneficial

into u closer commercial relationship
which must necessarily follow all such
efforts for mutual advantage. Mr.
Tcachuut observed while In Mexico that
the English and other nations held n
larger share In the commercial inter
ests of the country than do the people
Of the United States, and he believes
that there Is no good reason why this
should continue. ana that there shuule

our sister Republic on the south,
