MEXICO As A SILVER COUNTRY.

Minister Romero, who represents
Mexico at the seat Of the Government
Of the United States, has written an
article on the money question, which
is of considerable interest to Ameri-
ans
Mexico is a silver money country.
Minister Romero says that the low
price of silver abroad makes it I'M.
profitable to export it, andthat, there
fore, there is an ample supply of silver
in the Mexican banks, stimulating in
dustry, maintaining prices and in.
creasing the demand for labor.
1t is quite true that, although Next
80 has an abundance of silver, and in
cludes within her bosom mines known
from the middle ages and not yet
worked, silver is so cheap that it is
Improbable to export. 1t is very
easy for the Mexican banks to be full
of such money, bat as to stimulation
of industry and increasing the demand
for labor, the sister Republic furnishes
the best possible illustration the
people of the United States ought to
require in demonstration of the effect
OF a silver standard.
Labor in the Republic of Mexico
deems itself fortunate at a wage of
from six gents to thirty-tbree cents e
day, Mexican silver money.
So abundant and so cheap is it that
men make Of themselves trucks, and
on their backs conduct a porterage of
things from O sack of flour to q load
Of furniture, when sc rar q thing as
a load of furniture is to be seen in q
street of Mexico. So abundant is labor
and so cheap, yet SO desperately poor
are the cities Of Mexico, notwithstand-
ing that it's banks are bursting with
silver, that the water system consists
of earthen vessels carried on the backs
of labor, which sells @ modicum of
water to such private patrons as may
be had for the pittance asked. American
travellers IN Mexico realize, by getting
nearly twice a dollars worth of every
thing for an American dollar. the diff
ference between sound money and
cheap money.
The free silver advocates would have
taken pains, had they known it in
time, to prevent the publication Of
Minister Romero's views on the silver
question. As a contribution to cur
