THE SKILLED" MEXICAN.
Was Sounding the Car Wheels, but
Didn't Know Why He Was
Doing Tt.

The inefficiency of Mexican labor
was under discussion by a group of
mining promoters.
"OH my last trip to Mexico" said
one, while our train halted at jim
ulco, a dinner station on the Mexican
Central, | alighted and watched the
mechanic who went from car to car
sounding the wheels with a hammer,
presumably to test their condition.
He was fair type of the native
skilled workman Just to draw him
out a little, / inquired.
why do you rap the wheels
Setting down his torch, he stared
at me in amazement. Because the
master mechanic tells me to- he re-
piled. But why | persisted. What
good does Il ao?' I do not know,
senor.' said he. The master mechanic
tells me to strike each wheel, and
do so. That is enough for me-
"'How long have you been working
at this job?' l asked.
1.-TWO years, he replied. For two
years he had been going through the
form Of sounding the car wheels with
out the slislntest knowledge Of the OBJ
feet of the test or the slightest curl
osity concerning It,"

WHERE FISH ARE CHEAP.
In Florida and Cuban Markets Fine
Varieties Sell at Low
Prices.

Commissioner George w. Bowers Of
the bureau of fisheries, returned lately
from Florida and Cuba, where he went
TO study the culture of sponges and
the marketing of fish in that COM
munity, reports the Washington Post.
Il have always held" said Mr..
Bowers, that the old woman who
raised chickens and the bureau of
fisheries were the greatest benefactors
of mankind AS long as chickens and
fish are to be had all the beef trusts
in the world cannot run the meat mar
ket up unreasonably, because the
masses of people will then eat chick
ems and fish"
Mr.. Bowers stated that the fish mar
kets Of Havana were a model of eff
ficiency and thoroughness. This con-
dition is probably due to the large
number of Catholics, who are heavy
consumers of fish.
In Florida Mr.. Bowers found that
fish were generally eaten and were re-
markedly cheap. The negro fisher
men, bringing in shad and other fish
from the ST John river and other
streams, where they are plentiful, sell
them to the dealers at three cents
each, and the consumers can procure
fish weighing from two to five pounds
each for a nickel. This assures the
poor people an abundance of cheap
food.

The chairman of the democrat state
central committee in the course OF
recent interview suggested that the COM
ing state campaign would afford an ex-
cellent chance for those people who favor
the bipartisan idea in politics. The
statement is true. More has been ac-
complished for the people of Michigan
during the past year and half than
during a single state administration OF
the past 25 years. Why should not those
people who sometimes boast OF their nom
partisanship show it next fall by cor
daily supporting Governor Warner!
Perhaps from their point of view he has
made some mistakes, but he has met
their best expectations of the service a
governor should perform IL many re-
spects. The non partisan should show
himself possessed of at least ordinary
gratitude and appreciation. The non
partisan voters of Michigan who exhibit
these qualities in the next state cam
paign will not support the candidates.
