Tn. Prear... ef Mexico.

The volume of statistics recently is sued by the Mexican government shows that a greater degree of pros perity prevails in that country than has been generally supposed. From the digest of the figures as made by the New York Tribune, it appears that in the first nine months of the present year, as compared with corresponding months of last year. imports decreased by nearly $3.70O,O00. There was a de- crease in every important class Of goods save only mineral products, in which there was an increase of about $500, 900. There was a decrease also in world save South America, which showed an increase of less than $19, ,000 There was a decrease also in imports from every important country of Flu rope save Belgium. There was, on the other hand, an increase from every important South American country save Venezuela and Colombia, the reasons for a. decrease from them be- ing obvious. There was a decrease from all Central America save Guate- mala. Finally. there was small in- crease from Canada and a large de- crease from the United States.
 Turning to exports. a net decrease is to be noted of only a trifie more than $64O.0OO. The chief falling off was in exports to Europe, and the chief gain was in exports to the United States There was a considerable increase to all South America except Colombia and to all Central America except British Honduras. The European decrease involved all important countries. Com pairing imports with exports, it is to be observed that there was an increase of more than $3.OOO, 900 in the excess of the latter over the former. Mexico usually sells about two and a half times as much as she buys, and the balance of trade" in her favor is apparently in- creasing. The explanation of that is, of course, that Mexico is more and more supplying her own demands. Her consumption of goods of all sorts is in- creasing. but she is learning to meet the demand with a domestic supply in stead of going to foreign markets.
 In connection with these trade move ments the development of banking in that country is worthy of notice. In 1865 there was practically no banking in Mexico, the total bank transactions amounting to scarcely S1,OOO.O0 a year. In 1878 transactions were only S5.0OO, 600 and by 1885 they had not risen above
 $SO,0oO,OO0. But in 1893 they were s93,- 100000 and since then they have stead fly increased to s270, ,O0O, ,OOO in 1901 and to sS12,OOO,O0O in 1902. Twenty years ago the use oi checks was unknown in Mexico, but today it is almost as com mon as in the United States In these there may be nothing particularly sen- sational or striking. There is, however. strong evidence that our great south ern neighbor is enjoying marked pros perity such as is possible only under a stable and enlightened government, and such as augurs well for the future of the republic.

BE GoOD-IT PAYS.

A Chicago man mas observed that
 Good deeds are better than real estate deeds-some of the latter are worth less, Act kindly and gently. show sym pathy and lend a helping hand. You cannot possibly lose by it.'' Most men appreciate kind word and encourage ment more than substantial help. There are persons in this community who might truthfully say: My good friend. cheer up.

The Cart .fors the Horse

It is strange how the American public so persistently clamors for new laws. Each legislature enaets a volume of cateh-as-catch-can legislation. Some little of itamay be needful and the pro- duct of thought and study practically applied. but much of it is the result of faddism, crankism. selfish greed or half baked ideas which never should have left the oven.
