MEXICAN VIEWS ON
THE CANAL QUESTION.
rlexiCO Will Be Gainer in That Her
West Coast Ports Will Be
Made Prosperous.

City OF Mexico. Feb. 1.-THE Mexi-
can papers are giving much attention
10 American topics. especially the pro-
posed construction OF the Nicaraguan
canal and the Mormons. The latter
subject Is OF special domestic interest
on account OF the fiourisning Mormon
colonies in the northern part of the re-
public.
I'll Tempo, the clerical daily, CEN
sures the government for liberal treat
ment or the Mormons, saying that here
all doors are thrown open to them,
lands freely given Them and what Is
a thousand times worse. they are per-
mitted TO open schools OF ther D
wherein they teach the children of the
Mexican people their unclean and per-
nlcious doctrines, while in the Unilied
states, says El Tempo. the country
which our liberals are always trying to
initiate, Mormons cannot send poly
gamists TO congress and are punish
ed Tor engaging in plural marriages
Ihe same journal, which speaks for
the Conservative party goes TO CEN
sure the United States for it's conrln-
ued display OF lust for territory. and
points out the dangers TO Mexico from
Vhe continued inflow Of Americans and
American capitalists and says the alb
sorptive tendencies of the Anglo-S Saxon
races are greatly TO be dreaded We

Imperialism.

and abundant supply OF coal from its
Pacifc ports. as Well as European conn
modities OF all kinds, so that the Nj
caragua canal will be "a serious compe-
titor 70 our internal roads But the
fact that the canal Will enable us to
largely increase our exports OF ore is
sufficient evidence that il will be high
ly advantageous TO us. From a purely
political point OF view OF the Nicara-
qua canal, seVering as IL Will, north
and central from South America Will
indefinitely be a bar TO all plans OF
military solidarity OF the Latin Ameri-
can nations-a solidarity which many
have thought possible OF making ef-
fectiYe by means Of a great railway
extending from Mexico 10 Patagonia or
Terra del Fuego. The canal will harm
Europe In that IL will render possible
American control OF the trade OF Peru.
Bolivia, Ecuador and a great part OF
Chill, as well as central and eastern
Asia, and Will establish the fiercest
Kind OF competition between American
and European merchandise. There is
no doubt that the Nicaragua canal will
greatly further commerce and dtplo-
matte influence OF the United States.
However, IL Is a good thing that no
such canal has ever been opened across
Mexican territory. for the weak nation
which is crossed by an inter-Oceanfc
canal loses either a portion OF it's ter-
ritories or large part of it's sovereign
ty.
The Mexican Herald says that by the
construction of the canal the United
states extends its southern coast line
FAR to the south and that the canal

iflc coast I'm preparation for sharing I'm

ocean as was predicted by Seward.
