MEXICAN credit has become so we'll
established under the capable financial
policy established by President Disz
that it is now proposed to remit a GER
tain percentage of the taxes. In the
past fourteen years he has lifted the
country from condition vergipg upon
bankruptcy to uuquestloned solvency.
Public Improvements have been made,
successful negotiations conducted for
refunding the national debt at lower
rates of interest, and the expenses of
government reduced. No wonder the
Mexicans are unwilling to have Presi-
dent Diaz retire from the presid ENJOY.
He has made it the first of the Latin

COLLECTOR CHENOWITH
The Effort To BldCken His ChdraC
ter SiqndlIy Failed

| 1.-THE fractional war that has been
waged at NoRales, Arizona, over the
Office of collector of customs at that
place has been ended in manner that
will not please the active, and as many
believe malignant, enemies of the
Hon. b. K. Chenowith," said a friend
of Mr.. Chenowith to a HERALD report
er.
| It will be remembered that charges
of q scandalous nature had been alleged
against Cole ctor Chenowith for violat-
| ing the civil service rules of the trea-
sury department; that inspectors had
| been sent from Washington TO investi-
gate the same and that it was heralded
broadcast by wire and through a No
gales paper that the charges had bee n
proven and that Mr.. Chenowith had
been removed from the office and dis
missed from the service in conse-
quence.
The friend of Mr. Cbenowith says in
regard to these charges: 1T now
seems that the only element of truth
in the whole story is that charges we're
made and tbatan investigation was had.
The result of the investigation is that
Mr.. Chenowith. after the evidence
had been carefully reviewed by both
President Mckinley and Secretary
Gage, stands INDICATED. He was not
removed from office, nor was he dis
missed from the service; he voluntarily
resigned.
1.-THE reason for his resignation was
business matter. DIR. Chenowith,
his brother, Jesse r. Grant (son OF Gen.
Grant, and himself own q valuable gold
property in the State of Sonora, Next
co. Mr.. Chenowfth's mission east was
for the purpose of negotiating a loan
of $50, 900, which he succeeded in doing,
in order to put in place suitable ma
chinery to treat the ores.
when here a few days ago Mr..
Chenowith was asked about his politi-
cal troubles. He smiled in reply, reach
ed into his pocket and showed the evil
dence, above the signature of Score
tary of the Treasury Gage, that the eff
fort to blacken his character had Gig
nally failed"

THE supreme court of Illinois has
just rendered decision that will be
a setback to the war on department
stores. A short time ago the city
council of Chicago passed two ordins n
ces which were intended to restrict the
business Of that class of mercantile es-
Establishments. One of these prohibited
the sale of malt or spirit uous liquors in
stores where dry goods are sold.
The other prohibited the sale
of vegetables, lard, butter,
meats and other provisions in stores
where clothing, dry goods and jewelry
were sold. A number of department.
store proprietors we're arrested for
violating the ordinances, tried before
q justice of the peace and adjudged
guilty. The judgments were affirmed
In the criminal court, from which an
appeal was taken to the supreme court,
with the result mentioned. The sup
erior tribunal held that the varied
business of the department stores is
legitimate and in consopance with the
laws of trade, and that to interfere
with this right would be violative of
the federal constitution, which guar
antees to every citizen the privilege of
using and disposing of his property as
he may see fit.

THE last republican national con-
ventton that met in Philadelphia was
that of 1872. In the twenty-eight
years that will have elapsed before the
next one meets there in June, 1900,
many political changes have
taken place; but if the republicans in
congress conduct themselves properly
during the next elk months 1t will
still be possible, the Providence Journal
thinks, to put into the platform of 1900
the statement that was in that twenty
eight years before: 1.-THE republican
party has accepted with grand courage
the solemn duties of the time"

A GRATIFYING illustration of the
friendship growing out of war Is af-
forded in the recent voluntary act OF
the Spanish government. Within a
year after the close of the war Spsi n
has voluntarily resumed payments Of
the treaty obligations of 1884, which
were abrogated by the declaration of
war and omitted from the provisions OF
the protocol of peace. This evidence
of friendship, however, may not be so
consoling when viewed in the light Of
the statement by Bishop Quigley of
Buffalo, who has just returned from a
visit to Spain. Bishop Quigley asserts
th at throughout Spain he found a senti-
ment of qualification and relief at the
release from the burdens and respon-
sibilities of their colonial posses
5iOns.

BUSINESS CONDITIONS.

It is gratifying to learn from the easi
that the fears expressed in some cir
Giles that the decline in stocks would
have an unfavorable effect upon trade
had no real found alton in the face of the
constantly increasing earning power,
advances in wages and the approach oil
the largest interest and dividend dis
bursements on record. The general bust
ness of the country, irdeed, gives no
evidence of retrogression, as the recent
excitement has been purely money
panic.
Now that the smoke has passed away
it is shown that the trust company that
failed in New York failed because it
had made q bad speculation. The
Globe bank, of Boston, was not q vic
tim of financial stringency. 1t failed
because its president was specializing
in copper shares, the favorite dissipa-
tion of Boston spectators. AS long as
people had nothing else to do with
their money they let him have it; the
increasing business activity, which has
diffused over the whole country the
money for a time accumulated In the
centres, has called these spectators
down. Such failures, therefore, in
stead of indicating business distress,
are logically associated with general
business prosperity. Paradoxicsl as 1t
may seem, the furry was the result of
good times rather than bad times.
1.-THE worst day in Wall street for
many years." as r. G. Dun & Co. say
in their latest weekly review of trade,
"was in part the legitimate result of
the best year in business ever known,
because the country had prospered
gre atty and had SO expanded its bust
have many millions locked up in car
rying stocks representing imaginary
values" For this reason the so-called
''industrials" are not in favor, and in
many cases those who hold them are
anxious to realize upon them in order
that they may have the money to in
vest in active business enter prises.
These conditions brought about, on the
one hand, disinclinstion to invest in
this class of securities, and on the
other desire to sell them. { The in
evitsble result..of this combination was
q slump in the prices of these securities,
and the "pinching'' of some who were
'long" on the same.
The old year could not go out nor
the new year dawn under happier con-
ditiops. The volume of business is In
excess of all previous records. AT no
time has production been greater or
the purchasing power based upon earn
ings larger, and the general demand
for mer handise thus continues active |

During the year the carriage travel
ed 1920 miles, or something more than
10 miles q day. The expense aver
aged about 20 cents mile. or about

actual expense for oils aud repairs, it
will be seen that such a carriage, pre-
sumsbly capable of carrying two per-
sons and the driver, could be operated
for about S400 year, or II the
heavier repair bills be taken out, for
lees than 500 year. It will proba-
bly, be a long time, however, before
the repair items can be reduced ma
terially, so that there is no Immediate

body of FIlipinos, who were hard press
ing accommodating party which vas
doing duty not far from Caloocan. Th'
Americans behaved with the creates

were fighting against very heavy odds,
but they showed no signs of quitting,
though there is scarcely doubt tina
they would have been cut to pieces had
it no. been for the opportune arrival O.

The campaign against the Filipinos
is to be prosecuted with vigor. The

naldo's forces must be made to lay down
