The American consular agent al
Monterey, Mr.. Fitzs.mimons, has just
completed for the state department al
Washington an exhaustive invetStiga-
tion of prices and wages in 1873 and
1896. The first date was taken be-
cause it marks the decentralization OF
silver. Mexican money was then as
good as American or a little better. In
that year the United States became a
gold standard country. Mexico, with
the declining value of the white metal,
was driven to the silver basis.
Mr.. Fitzsimm ons' inquiry shows thai
wages for Mexioans in the trades %
range in Mexican money as follows:
Carpenters, rs cents to $3.50 per day
bricklayers, $50 to 81 per day; stone
masoms, $3.50 to 50 per day.
Native shoemakers work by the
piece, and average about 81 a day.
Mexican butchers can mo- be said
to have a trade" remarked Mr.. Fftz-
simmons. "They cut off a chunk OF
meat from any part OF the areas and
throw it ITO YOU. They get from Sc to
500 a month.
Clerks in stores are employed at a
wide range of prices. Some young fell
lows stand behind the counters for IS
and Sc a month. The average Ia about
$40. American merchants in Monterey
ray more than Mexican merchants do.
| Trusted clerks in some cases get as
much as $50 a month.
THE book-keeper or head clerk. who
gets 500 a mon5h." said the consular
agent, Stands here in the same rea-
tive position that the man who gets
IS. 900 a year does in the states"

I'm looking back tic 1873" said Mr..
Fltzslmmons. ito gather the material
for the state department.. | found that
prices were just about the same then
as they are now. There was this diff
ference in the living then: The groc-
ei.es and articles of food were of do
nestle production, but even corn, beans
and all were about the same prices in
she face value of the money when sill
yer was az par as they are now l
found that slight changes had taken
pace in The prices of dry goods and
cassimeres. Slight reductions were
noted in some of these, but on others
the prices had undergone no change.
In the states such goods have gone
down so per cent since 1873
What did o find in the compari-
son of wages for 1873 and 1896, Mr..
Fitzsimmons?"
Il found that native labor had i'm
proved about 40 per cent right here in
Monterey, and that this improvement
was due entirely to Americans com
ing in, and, by establishment of indus
tr.es. creating "a better market for la
Dor. The improvement is confined to
the immediate vicinity of Monterey.
Out a little distance, where this purely
local influence does not extend. wages
have not bettered a particle. They re-
main as they were in 1873 when silver
was at par"
The figures which Nh. Fitzaimmons
gives are the retail prices of Monterey
stores. The largest hotel in Monterey.
buying supplies in considerable quanti-
ties. pays $3.50 per hundredweight for
-four, which would be $40 per barrel;
So "a bushel for potaties; rs cents a
pound for butter: rs cents a pound for
.ard; 60 cents a gallon for erosene oil;
40 cents a pound for hams; 10k cents a
pound for sugar by the barrel: $1.5O a
bushel for corn, and four cents a pound
for corn meal.
Necessaries in the states become lux
uries in Mexico. and wages on a silver
basis are not calculated to tempt
American labor to cross the Rio
Grande. W. B. 8.

Baking powder is so cents a pound.

Which enjoys an export rebate. BY
reason of this rebate it reaches the
Mexican dealer at a wholesale price
less than it is put TO the American
~stcrekeeper. A lady came into Mr..
F~!tzsimnlons' store the oHher day and
began to congratulate herself Oh h;lv-
ing beaten him and the Mexican gov-
eminent on a baking powder purchase.
VITA much feminine pride she told
how she had bought it in the states and
smuggled it across the Rio Grande,
thereby avoiding duty on it. The store
keeper took A sheet of paper and a pen
Gil and showed the lady that if she had
exchanged the American money, which
the baking powder in the states cost
her. fer Mexican money. she could have
saved 10 n by leaving her baking
powder in the states and buying the
same brand at his store.
II there is anything which rufles the
feminine mind more than the duty it is
the exchange. Money lis money to the
average Woman The adorable sex has
no use for Two standards. Woman can
empty her pocket-book fast enough
with one standard. Gasoline stoves
sand in a relation to the Mexican
tliide about like baking powder and a
few other manufactures on which there
is no rebate for export. When the diff
ference in the value of the money is
considered they sell cheaper here chan
in the states. An American and his
wife came into the consular agents
store and priced a gasoline stove. They
were told that 1T was sold at $40.
Why" protested the lady, q only
paid $27 for the one l got in Dallas, and
II was precisely like this-the very
same make, l declare"
The storekeeper laughed. So did the
husband. They tried TO explain the
difference in money. They told the in
dignant lady that a stove for $40 in
Mexican money was about s14 cheaper
than a stove for $27 in American mon
ey.
"Oh. | don't care" She said to her
husband. Mexican money is what you
are paid in. and $40 is too much for
the stove"
Oatmeal retails here at two pounds
for 80 cents. In the states the grocers
sell four pounds for a quarter.
Canned fruits. of which the plain
people of the states consume vast
quantities, are TOO high in Mexico to
be even luxuries. A can weighing two
and one-half pounds is priced at s1.5O.
There is a high duty to be added to the
difference in the money. 1t drives the
fruit ans from the groceries in Mexi-
CO.
Butter is 20 cents a pound when
brought from the states. and the native
manufacture commands rs cents.
Soaps range about double American
prices, whether exported or of Mexican
manufacture. An ordinary grade of
soap sells for 10 cents a pound.

Mr.. Mol-ieyh, the proprietor of the
Heel Hidalgo, pays his walters SIS a
month, which he says is a big price fol-
Mexico. His American chef he pays
$40 a month, while his Mexican cooks
receive from $40 to $35. The beds are
made and the rooms cleaned by Next
can boys. They receive $12 a month.
There are no chambeimIids in Mexico.
Barkespers get s25, porters $40, and
iauniry men SIS a month. This is all
in Mexican money.
Like all Americans in Mexico the
proprietor of Inc Hidalgo is receiving
IN the states wlho want to know all
about the practical workings OF silver
in a silver country. This is his reply
just sent to one of his inquring friends:
Does any sane man believe that free
coinage by the Unl.ed States alone
would double The price of silver? Does
any one believe uha: the passage of a
free coinage law by the United States
would raise the price of the silver of
the world, which is at least SIS, 200, 000,-
600, from 67 cents to s1.29 an ounce?
You don't believe i, Tor does any
reasonable man. Let me tell you what
the result would be. The United States
would he in the came condition as re-
CARDS finance that Mexico is in today.
Mexico has lost al of her gold and is,
IN consequence, on a strictly silver
basis. Her silver dollar passes, both
At home and abroad, at its bullion
value. All her paper money. including
national bank notes, passes at so cents

dollars TO pay n dollar of interest on

Send me 10 American dollars and |

Mexico is %prospering, not because
