In seven cases out of ten in which there
is objection to our export, the Consuls
find the cause of it to reside with our
manufacturers and packers. Over and
again the Consuls have reported that
American shippers are disposed to ignore
the tastes of the foreign consumer.
Only recently we quoted from some of
our South American Consuls the same
complaint regarding several lines of ex
port. In those cases it was set forth that
because of the refusal Of Americans to
study the local taste. and to pack with
care, the foreign competitor gets the trade
simply because ne is careful to make and
pack as his market demands, and in this
instance special reference was had to
canned goods.
AS an example of our disposition not to
play fair we quote from the report of our
Consul at Trieste, under date of last ] July:
After careful investigation l am satisfied

foreign cotton both on account OF the style or

LOOSE AND INDEPENDENT METH
DDS IN EXPORT.

The question is not whether he insults
us, but does he speak the truth when he
declares, as does an English mercantile
agent in San Francisco paper, that q
reason for non-succsss among American
manufacturers ia because of 'ttheir pig
headedness." The reference was primar-
lily to the methods adopted in putting up
pickles and preserves for market. The
Stockton Independent is right when it
says that If there is anything to learn
about preparing these goods for foreign
markets American packers ought TO be
glad to learn.
The RECORD UNION believes there is
more truth than harshness in the remark
of the English critic. We have during
the last ten years repeatedly quoted from
the Consular reports made to the State
Department the criticisms of our own
ConsulE upon our own manufacturers.

THE SECOND MEXICAN LETTER.

Tomorrow the RECORD UNION will
publish the second Of Professor Bernard
Moses letters on Mexico. the first of
which last week attracted so much atten-
ton, both in and out of the State.
In this second letter Professor Moses
quickens the interest of the reader still
more. In the first he introduced us to the
conditions Of Mexican life, manners and
characteristics, as compared with those
of the early Spanish occupation, and
showed how attrition with the modern
civilization has created new desires and
stimulated activity to satisfy them to the
betterment of the whole people.
In the second letter the accomplished
historical student takes up specific in
stance and treats of it in the most enter
Introduction of modern methods of trans
portation aud communication. Mexico
inherited from Spain indifference for
roads. Consequently her cities were built
regardless of means Of transportation be-
tween them, and the trail was about the
only line Of communication. Even to
this day, he says, fruit is brought into the
City of Mexico on the backs of men long
distances, SO little had wheeled vehicles
so persistently do all customs cling to
her.
But with the introduction of railways
through foreign enterprise. the means of
transportation all around have been SO
improved that the effect has been to rem
der revolutions. once easy and frequent,
now rare and difficult. because the insur-
rectionist cannot effectively mass and
move his adherents before the Govern
ment can transport supplies and troops
for suppression of the uprising. Hence
the respeos for the Government is in
creased and order and peace become more
certain and broad.
Highway robbery was the national
scandal in Mexico. Now 1t is disappear
ing because of the necessity to protect
trains OF passengers and merchandise
And they do this most effectively in
Mexico by suspending the constitutional
bill OF rights, SO that the robber taken in
the act of obstructing q train. displacing
rails, cutting telegraph wires or other
wise damaging property so Rs to impede
passage or interrupt communication, if
the crime has caused loss of life, he may
be shot without ceremony or trial. Such
interrupters are held to be outlaws and
public enemies, and, like wild beasts,
may be shot on sight by officials.
Railways have also stim ulated the de-
velopment of Industries and the opening
up of resources of the country, and have
likewise stiffened the public credit, and
thus streng thened the Government and
given it better standing. AS result,
while the Mexicans are distrustful of
each other when in corporate relations,
they have confidence in corporate actiy-
ity when foreigners are at the head of it.
But we may not further outline the
subject matter and thought of this ad-
mirable letter, because to do SO would be
to do an injustice. 1t must be read for
itself. And of this we assure our readers,
whoever rises from its careful perusal
will step out into the round of duty re-
freshed, enlarged of view, instructed,
entertained, informed and well supplied
with texts for the most interesting specu-
latiye thought.

puts it thus

THE Senate committee Of the New
Jersey Legislature has exposed a system
of frauds that appalls the Jersey folks. II
is shown, for instance, That the public
printing has been so rascally manipulated
as to cost SI35, 900 year, while Massachu-
sets gets better results for s., 200. A large
item of the cost was for printing the laws
in German, Italian and other foreign Ian
guages. What folly; an old State as is
that printing it's laws in several tongues,
What is the matter with English? ? Why
should not all American citizens receive
notice of the laws in English, and no
other language? The expenses of the
Legislature, it appears, have trebled in
twenty years, though neither the mem
bership nor the length of the terms have.
Multiplying the officers of the houses has
been going on, until there are so many
officials that they fall over one another.
Fees have been increased, useless COM
missions erected. and steals OF other or
ders prosecuted: and all this in little
Jersey, where it would seem such things
could not grow to such proportions.

To speak of these villainous rascals as exiles
is to insult intelligence.
No great community. no really prosperous
and happy community, can be built up where
the moral tone is low, The people who are
content with the plat1tude that this is a good
enough town, a city OF homes and peace" and
all that, will not find the world to agree with
them unless the expression is strictly true.
For there is no modern town that is not sus-
ceptible of improvement in moral condi-
tiOns-none that is good enough" Let no
California growing city or town be blind to
the fact that the Eastern home-seeker takes
sharp notice of moral conditions when he
comes spying out the land.
He who has the test interests of the city of
his home at heart may not be rich in worldly
goods-indeed, he may be as poor as church
mouse and still be rich in public spirit. The
poor man, OF all others, needs to be most
active for progress and improvement, for his
gifts cannot be OF money; they may be bet
ter-brains.
The transition state through which Califor-
MIA is now passing is going to determine the
right of the fittest communities to live and
prosper. The towns and cities which take ad-
vantage OF the present tide are going TO be the
tows and cities that will be chief centers OF
pros peTity, trade and comfort.

SAYS the Augusta, Ca, Chronicle

There must be some proper method devised
by the laW-mak1ng power that viii receive
the approval of the Supreme Court, to collect
from wealth its rightful share for the support
OF the Government.
Very well. Now. theoretically genu-
inc, not partial, income tax is the most
even, just and equal bearing of all taxes.
If it is so desirable, then let the question
go to the people on the issue, ''Shall the
Constitution be so amended as to permit
the laying of perfectly equitable income
tax ?' On that issue Legislatures would
be instructed by the people, and reflect
their will when they came to vote upon
the proposition. For over and above all
the snarling and criticism INDUCED in
against the Supreme Court. it remains
that that final tribunal has held that un-
der the Constitution, Jas it is, an income
tax, such as it has passed upon, is for
bidden, and the great mass of legal opin-
ion and sound reasoning supports the
court in its construction of the words of
the Constitution. The st. Paul Dispatch
puts it thus:
Class legislation in this country Is abso-
lutey repugnant to the people, when in their
sober senses, and the decision OF tho Supreme
Court in putting It's foot down on the income
tax law, has not only responded TO the
qurements of the Constitution but to the
real opinion OF the masses OF the American
people.
