Mexican Progress.

Col. 2. r. Smith, of Deming, N. M,
has just returned from the City
of Mexico, whore he has been
on an extended business trip. Upon
question by HERALD reporter Col.
Smith answered as follows:
81 was impressed with the evident
general prosperity of the country
English, German, and American CAPT
tai is flowing into the republic from
every point of the compass. The eX-
ports CT the country are steadily in
creasing while the imports are decreas-
ing. showing conclusively, that Mex
ico's home productions are to a great
extent supplying her people with
goods heretofore imported. The
banks and business houses seem to be
on a most substantial and sound basis,
and commercial failures are seldom
heard of in the republic. The rail-
road earnings of the old lines seem to
be entirely satisfactory, and many
new lines are making their way to the
coast from many directions, and 1t Is
evidently only ii matter of IL few years
until our sister republic Will be
checkered with railroads from the
border to the sea. The country is one
of immense possibilities, and combines
within its boundary, climates and con-
ditiors suited to the desires of home
seekers from any part of the United
States or Europe.
Gen. GanO of Dallas, Texas, is nego-
tiating for large tract of coffee land
in the state of Chiapas, with view to
colonizing the same with 800 good peo-
pie from Texas. These lands are also
valuable for sugar, rubber
tropical fruits, etc. The government
seems to be established on a firm
foundation, and law and order pre-
walls in every part of the republic: and

'Col J. II. Hampson' s road is fOrg-
ing to The front, and he will no doubt
push it through to the gulf as quick as
men and money can do it. The colonel
IS deservedly popular with Americans,
and to say that he has the entire conf
dence of the government and people Of
Mexico is stating only a plain truth
which no one viii dispute. Yes. mine

d nature that it would not be prudent

IT is claimed for what is known as
the "Campell method" of preparation
and cultivation of the soil that its
adoption will render the arid regions
of the west as reliable, agriculturally
speaking as the Mississippi valley
states. The new method, successfully
practiced for many years in the rain
less regions of Nebraska and the Dako-
tas by Hardy w. Campbell, rests on
the foundation stones-deep blowing,
sub-surface packing, and frequent but
shallow surface cultivation.

THE Washington correspondent OF
the Louisville Courier-Journal says
"There are a great number of humbugs
in the senate" In proof of this asser-
ton he cites Vests TRADE against the
president for the latter's Cuban and
financial policies, delivered prior to the
holidays. and adds; ''Now Vest has
secured reelection to the senate and
he cares no more for Cuba, or silver
either, than the average school boy
cares for last years bird nests" An
other example: "Mills is cited before
a court of political BANKRUPTCY at home, >
las Vest was) land that accounts for
his ensanguined vaporings the other

the grease out of Bacon of Georgia
and sets his readers roaring over his
take-off of the solemnity of Allen, the
Nebraska populist.

COMPLAINT is made by travelling
men in Mexico representing American
manufacturers of excessive taxes de-
manded of them by state governments
and say that in certain states the
license tax is almost prohibitive. But
the local manufacturers object tC
foreigners on the gold basis going
there and selling goods freely without
contributing, as the natives have to do
to support the local, states and munici-
pal governments.

BY unanimous vote the Alabama sen
ate has passed bill making it a mis-
demeanor for any person to sell pools in
Alabama, whether on races run inside
or outside of that state. A bill has also
been introduced in the house to pro
hibit the keeping of any slot machine,
wheel of fortune, railing machine, or
other gambling device. Forty years
ago Alabama had the most drastic laws
against CANT bling of any state in the
Union, and the indications are that she
will get around to them again before
the present legislature adjourns.

bales in 1895 to 45, 600 bales in 1896.
The result is threatened famine OF

United States, with the prospect OF
higher prices for an inferior article.
Indeed, the change is already felt, Not

Cony High Foot Ball Notes.

1t seems that Cony High and Nichols
Latin are destined not to meet upon the
FOOT ball arena, this fall. Two games
were arranged at the first of the season
but the first was cancelled by Cony High.
as the foot ball team was not in trim to
go up against any team. Now the
Nichols boys have cancelled the game
that was scheduled for next Saturday at
Lewiston, giving no reason for so doing.
1t was intended by the Cony boys to play
the game they had cancelled later in the
season.
Probably a game will be arranged for
next Saturday with Oak Grove Seminary.
Some good practice was put in, Wednes-
day afternoon. the team showing up fair
ly well. Captain Owen played quarter
back and was pronounced a success in
that position.
