CREATING BUSINESS.

Theodore Dresser, in al article il
Herper's Magazine for the current
month, dwells on the fact that rail.
today as bitterly as they were few
years ago.
He proceeds to give some reasons
why many of the people have come to
regard such denunciation largely IS q
matter of windy politics. One OF the
strongest of these reasons is found in
the growing interest shown by the
railroad companies in the counties
through which their lines run. A
railroad man formulated the attitude
of his company toward the public as
follows:
To reach the man who is trying to
do something is our object. The man
with energy is our friend. l am not
talking now about the man who has
fifty or a hundred Thousand dollars.
He can take care of himself. [ refer
to the man who has little or nothing,
but who wants to have something; the
man who is ambitious and willing to
work. Such men need encouragement,
and they will get it If they are a part
of our public. We have found that if
we are to be- prosperous our people
must be prosperous, and so the welfare
of every single individual in our ter
ritOry becomes our welfare. That is
business.
After showing just how the COM
panies secure through competent men
aud from reliable sources information
as to the qualities of soil, labor supply,
demands for certain products. ETC., it
Is explained that, 1.-THE knowledge
thus gathered is used by the roads in
several ways. In the first place, in
discovering what certain soils are good
for. It picks out the thing which is
least grown and is in greatest demand
The general freight agent will say to
his horticultural agent: ST see by
this report here that the land around
Denison, Tex, is good for tomato-rais-
ing. Tomatoes are in great demand
now and bring good prices. Why
couldn't we induce the farmers down
there to go into the tomato business?
1t would be great thing for that sec
tion."
The horticultural agent Immediate
ly takes the reports concerning the
land about Depison aud sends an agent
into the country. Meetings of farmers
are called, and the nature of the land
and the profit sof tomato-growing ex-
p aimed. "Now," says the horticul-
tural agent, ''you gentlemen are rails
ing wheat on your land, aud getting,
say, 60c bushel, If the market is fair.
If not, you get less or hold your wheat
aud wait for your money. Now this
land about here has been tested, not

GLADSTONE once expressed his
opinion of General Butler at dinner
where some one referred to Joshua as q
leader who could not be matched in
modern times. Mr.. Gladstone broke
out: "JoshuaI Joshua. Why, Joshua

Ter as leader of men," General Bull
Ter can lead men in a retreat as well as
to victory. Joshua could not; he never
retreated. Hence, Buffers superiority

passages are found in Mr.. Dreiser's
article, explanatory of the fact that
the relations between the carrier and
the man for whom he carries is con-
stant!y growing more natural and
satisfactory, and that both are finding
fair profit as result of the change.

Oaks and other Ell Paso roads are

through which they run and develop

PRESIDENT DIAZ.

The recent honor paid to President
Disz is one of which any head OF q
representative government should be
proud. A poll of the voters has just
been completed with the following re-
suits:
Numb Der of Voters. II ,54S, 654
For Diaz .......-,.....1 j, 400, 49,
This is practically unanimous call.
The election is to take place in the lat
ter part Of the present year, and of
course, Diaz will be reelected.
The chairman of the committee
which notified Gen. Diaz of his renom-
nation told him that his achievements
as president of Mexico placed him in
the same class as Bismarck and Cavour,
and the comparison does not exag-
gerate the Importance of the work
which President Diaz has performed.
Like Csvour, he laid the foundation
on which his country prepared itself to
take place among the more important
of the nations of the world. Like Bis
marck, he has built on that foundation.
He has been the actual or the virtual
head of the Mexican republic ever
since his first election in 1876. Dur
ing all of this time he has been the
actual head except for one term, and
during that time the acting president
was swsyed completely by him.
The expansion which Mexico has at
tanned during the presidency of Gen.
Diaz can be shown in very impressive
way by the growth in its foreign trade
in the, past few years. In the fiscal
year 1894 Mexico's imports we're
$50 900. 900 and it's exports s3S. 900 900.
In the fiscal year 1889 the imports
had increased to $50, 900, 600 and the
exports to 500, 100000 Here is gain
which is larger in pro-
portion ian any other nation of the
size of Mexico has made in that per-
iod.
But this is only one of the advantages
which have come to Mexico through
the rule of the wise and courageous pre-
sident who is to be elected next fall to
another term. During the quarter of
a century in which he has been at the
head of its government Mexico has
taken place among the great nations
of the world.
