Mexican Railrnad Einnucca.

The annual report of the Mexican
Central railway has some significant
figures well worth the study of all
those who wish to invest in Mexican
securities and Industries. The total
gross gain for 1899 was 81, 997, 100. The
bulk of this advance on the receipts
of 1898 was made up of an increase in
local freight and local passenger bust
ness. The former showed IA gain of
$1,175,6SO and the latter 5000, 554. In
te%rnational freight showed a gain of
S42O,266 and international passenger
business of SOB. 1t will be seen that
the local business was the chief factor
in putting the Mexican Central where
it could meet all its interest without
drawing upon the b~anked-up subsidy
fund as in previous years. The year
1899 vas a banner year for the gov
eminent of Mexico and for the Central
railway.

In its chase for campaign material
the Democratic party is putting up a
very fair imitation of the dog catcher
The southern newspapers have beer
quick to resent the latest Islander on

man.
1t is safe to u that Mr.. TILL
mans views on the war are not in
dorsed by 5 per cent of the southern
people.
The Hon. Clark Howells, editor OF
the Atlanta Constitution, is trying
very hard to remain in the Demo-
cratic party, but he resents the course
Of the Pettigrews toward our troops in
the Philippines.
Heretofore the grand jury has been
regarded as IN important part of the
machinery of justice, but the Ken
lucky Democrats have demonstrated
that 1t can be used for the purpose of
intimidation and political theft.
We infer from the tenor Of the de
bate that the enterprising press agent
of the Philippine rebellion, Agoncillo,
is keeping up a spirited correspond
ence with the Democratic United
States Senators.
The Virginia people have voted in
favor Of negro Acknowledgement. This
will do away with the Inconvenience

H CITY OF PEKIN,


Divided Into Two P~arts-RuIes and Re
strictions.
The city of Pekin is in two sections
known as the Tatar and Chinese cities.
n former, taking its name from the
latars who conquered northern China
In the seventeenth century, is nearly
square and Is surrounded by a wall
which is over fourteen miles long. The
Chlnese city was originally a suburb
n was Enclosed in walls in the six
teenth century. This Is rectangular in
shape, the walls somewhat lower than
those of the other city and measuring
ten miles in length. In the heart Of the
Tatar city is the Enclosure known as
the Forbidden City" the home of the
emperor, to which no foreigners are
admitted. Around the Forbidden CITY"
Is a large inclosure known as the I'm
perial city, also having high walls and
gates. Foreigners are allowed to pass
freely through this section of the city.
Three AXE are included in the in
closures which in winter time are used
for skating parties by the imperial
household.
Numerous temples adorn the two sec
tons of the city representing Budd-
hism, Confucianism. Mohammedanism
and the large number of idols worship
ed by the Chinese. There is no foreign
concession in Pekin. but the legations
are situated near together in the south
ern part of the Tatar city. They were
originally fine Chinese residences, but
have been rebuilt to suit the tastes of
their present occupants. The Roman
Catholics erected three cathedrals, but
have been forced to abandon one as 1t
was located too near the imperial pal
ace.

sold his prunes and plums in the Chi
cago market at 81 per crate OF twenty
hve pounds. The freight rate is 81 per
100 pounds. He shipped silver prunes
TO London, where they sold at $3.50
per crate, after paying the freight, but
these were choice fruit. At home In
Idaho good apples, free from worms,
sold last fall at 81 per box of sixty
pounds. Such returns as these are a
little better than picking, packing and
shipping fruit for the benefit of the
railroads, without any return to the
producer. The cause of this difference
In prices is due to the policy of the
present administration, which has Gre
aztec business activity throughout the
country, thus assuring better demand
for all farm products.
Let me give you another instance
OF two of how the farmers have bene-
hted In Idaho. During the winter of
lSso-97 hay sold in our state at $3.50
per ton. This year hay has sold at IS
per ton. The improvement in the value
OF sheep and wool has already been
referred to by me, but I may point out
that the sheepmen have abandoned the
old plan of allowing their sheep to sub
sist upon the winter ranges. A few
years 6 sheep were not worth caring
for. They are now valuable, and the
wool produced bring good returns, so
that farmers feed hay to their sheep
in winter, thereby increasing the guam
tity and improving the quality of their
wool. One farmer writes me that in
the fall of 1896 he sold several nun
dred head OF hogs at 8 cents per pound.
Within the last few months he has
sold similar hogs to the same party at
~ cents per pound. The value Of cat
tie has increased in the same proper
ton.
Idaho is far more prosperous today
than 1t has ever been. There is good
demand for the products of Jul mines,
and with better prices. The state is
full of prosperity, the whole commu-
nifty is satisfied, and we are going to
give our electoral vote to President
Mckinley"

A FEW PERTINENT REMARKS.

Hawaii vas the first necessary and
share of the trans-Paciic trade. We
got Hawaii, although Grover Cleveland
nee hauled down our flag there. Then
we got Manila. Now we are getting
the commerce.
Scythes costs farmers 40 cents a doz-
en more last year than In 1896. Corn
was worth 10 cents a bushel more, so
that the farmer who paid an extra 8
or 4 cents for a scythe was still 6 or
Z cents to the good. when paying for
1t out of one bushel of corn.
Barley was worth only 80 and 80
cents a bushel on the farm In the
was worth 40 and Al cents in the Re-
publican years OF 1898 and 1899. Pro-
lection meant a gain of about SO an
acre to the farmer who grows bar
ley.
Under the Democratic free trade
Wilson bill we imported about $780,
900 pounds of foreign hops each year.
In 1899 we imported only 1919 900
pounds.
Wages have been higher In the Unit
ed States since the formation of the
large business combines than ever they
were before.
The Boer incident in the United
States was closed a few weeks before

Der of accounts in the banks of his
