Senior Romero Thinks 1t n Cause or Her
Prosperity.

SefIor Romero. the Mexican Minister at Wash
ington, contributes to the June number of the
North American RerfeW an article bearing OH
THE silver question. He disclaims any purpose
of commenting, even by implication. ON the
monetary question In the United States, his
object being to set forth tho advantages
and disadvantages produced in Mexico by
the silver standard prevailing there. Mr..
Romero says that the silver standard in
Mexico encourages very largely the in
crease OF export OF domestic products.
The cost of producing these is paid for In silver
and, compared with their market value, II Is
considerably less than that of similar articles
raised in gold standard countries. The silver
stadnard also stimulates the DEVELOPMENT OF
home manufactures. the price OF foreign COM
modities being so high that 1t pays well to make
some Of them at home. Such plants as cotton
mills. smclters. &C., are consequ increasing
considerably. and even some manufacturing
plants OF the United States are being taken to
Mexico. Nor has the purchasing power of tho
silver dollar In Mexico declined. II is now. on
the whole, as great as 1t ever was.
Mr.. Romero says that as the low price of sill
yer abroad makes it Improbable to export il,
the circulation is increased, so that there is now
creases the demands ior iabor result esa 'S Of
| fixed incomes used to live in Europe and spend
| Their money there; the higher rate of exchange
their incomes In Mexico.
On the other hand, he points out that the sill
ver standard has greatly reduced importati ions,
their prices when sold for silver, and the con
| sunt huctuation In the market price of silver
creates uncertainty as to the value of those
G0mmoditics when the time for pas yment arrives.
| The import duties. which until recently were
the largest source of Mexican revenue are there

to 500. The building was very old, and
Of not much value.
