SAYS Mr.. Ransom, U. s. Minister
to Mexico, in an interesting interview
in the Baltimore san: "The present
prosperity of Mexico is due in a
great measure to the enormous
amount Of American capital that has
been invested there" Mexico is
one of the most conspicuous silver
countries in the world. Is 1t posi-

THERE is nothing in the history of
the world to match the wonderful
development of tho South since the
civil war, and especially during the
last dozen years. While there are
examples Of increase OF population
and wealth in the West that are
justly the pride of the whole nation,
the South it must be remembered
has almost literally risen from the

Splendid Results

Splendid Results with Free Wool. ~
When the Wilson tariff was passed
last August the country resounded
with dire Republican predictions of
the ruin which it would swiftly
bring to American wool and manu-.
features of wool. The new tariff
made wool free of all import duty
and made the greatest cut in the du-
ties on imported wooden goods.
The american Wool and Cotton Re
porter Ia protectionist" journal)
now says, in double loaded edito-
rial:
Reports received from the lead
ing markets of the country indicate
that there is no reaction in the up
ward movement Of the price of
wool. In the past week, in numer-
Gus instances, further advance of
one cent per pound has been estab-
lished, and 1t is safe to say that dur
ing the past fortnight there has been
an average rise of two cents"
Its editorial also says:
"Our semi-annual record Of new
mill construction for the first half of
1895, to which we devote considera-
bile space in this issue, makes q sig
niticant and gratifying showing. 1t
furnishes convincing evidence that
the clouds of depression have been
giving way, and that period OF
prosperity is developing in textile
lines"
This record shows "that the num-
Der of new wooden mills has in
creased from II last year to SO this
year, an increase Of over 100 per
cent" The new tariff has also
given the people cheaper clothing
than they ever before had.
The new tariff, though denounced
as an ogre and dubbed by "protec-
ZIONIST" journals as Free Trade"
has already proved itself a bonanza
to all American industries. The
country will never rest till it gets
more Of the "ruin" which the Will
son bill was to bring. The more the
better.-N. \. Herald.

A TRAsURY warrant for one cent,
In favor of Grover Cleveland, Presi-
dent of the United States, was for
warded recently from the Treasury
to the Gray Gables, Mass. This
sum was found to be due him as
salary upon the adjustment of his
account for the fiscal year. The
Presidents salary is $685. a year,
paid monthly, and the monthly
warrant is for S4,166.66 % Tor

in drawing the warrants and the

danger of trouble from the striking

men will make nothing by the strike
and will finally accept the terms Of

The following paragraph from the New
Haven Journal * Courier is iull OF sense
and suggestiyeness
He gives twice who gives quickly. He
who pays a bill quickly doesn't pay
twice, but he does good thing and helps
to pay some other bill. Therefore all
who can pay their January bills quickly
ought 10 do so. Such payment will help
business. Il will encourage those who
do business and who have their January
bills to pay. The paying of bills Is one OF
the unpleasant features OF life. hut wait
ing for them to be paid is equally or
more unpleasant. Many business man
who has promptly sent out his polite
bills is on the anxious seat OF tear that
his debtors will not lie as prompt and as
polite as he has been. They ought to be
II they possibly can.

AMONG OUR NEIGHBORS.
CANAAN.

January S.-The Board of Agriculture
held an institute here last week Wednes-
day and Thursday. The meetings were
not very fully attended, and there seemed
to be but little interest exhibited. Agrl-
culture in this town has never received
very much attention, the business OF lum-
bering, for which this is an importan'
center, being the leading industry. There
are some good farms here, and fertile
soil and at no distant day agriculture is
destined to occupy more prominent
place. Itnot prominent as an agr'cultur-
al town, Canaan must not be considered
as behind other towns in industrial mat
tiers. But few towns have as good rea
son to look to the future with confidence
as has Canaan. 1t is the center for
good trade and has energetic, enterpris
ing citizens.
