WHERE MONEY GROWS
 AND HEALTH AB0UNDS
The Glowing Opinion of a Phoenician Who Has Returned to New York From a Tour of the Republic.

| New York. Jan. Is Special Corres- pondence of The Republican.3-I have | just returned from a tour of Mexico and believe many of your readers are anxious to be correctly informed re- ] garding that wonderful country. rich 1 in all that is possible for nature to be- stow The fertility of her valleys is unsurpassed. unlimited pasturage car pets her mountain sides, and the mountain themselves seem incapable of retaining the mineral wealth with which they are burdened. for it is ! bursting from their sides on every hand, mineralized veins being every where present.
 The health conditions are perfect in the mountain districts. It is never hot nor is it ever cold. Just right" is the exclamation of everybody. l have travelled through the great West, and visited all parts of California, but the climatic conditions there do not equal those of Mexico. There Is balminess-a healing quality-in the mountain air that exists nowhere else. For those in quest of health Mexico is certainly the Promised Land" But what most astonished me. was the op- portunities for making money. Every body has money. Tt grows there" The mountains are full of it. Mexico is the richest mining country in the world. The opportunities for invest ments are wonderful: ten. twenty or fifty dollars invested often brings you hundreds or perhaps thousands in few weeks. But the gold or silver ore can not be worked without machinery. When a native or poor white man find rich mine they are only to glad to give a large portion of it to those who will supply the machinery to work it. for without machinery t will bring him nothing. but when operated. even if he gives nine-tenths to get it oper- ated. his one-tenth would make him millionaire. To supply these new mines with machinery companies are formed by hundreds of people. each taking a little stock-from Sl0 up to S10O being a common investment Such investments always pay.
 The first day I was in Mexico I was asked to assist in equiping a mine. l did not understand what it meant. but the landlord explained that they want ed to get machinery for a newly de- veloped mine. and added its a good thing; if you take little stock it will make you some quick money" So l invested $1O. thinking. though. it might be the last l would ever hear of il. but in four weeks got $25 for that stock. I then invested S100 in another newly developed mine and in less than three months sold that stock for S1.O5O. Before leaving Mexico l invested S1- GOO for equiping two new mines. and have already been offered twice what l paid. but this stock I am going to keep. The Mexican laws do not per init wildcat mining schemes, such is a crime in Mexico and that is why investments i1 their mines are so safe and profitable. People in in health who wish to know more of the sani- tary conditions of Mexico should ad- dres, MT. C. H. Arthur. United States Consul. Aero. City of Oaxaca. Mexico. For information regarding mining in- vestments. address Mir. W. II. Baird. Superintendent of Mines, Soledad. City of Oaxaca Mexico. Information ob- tained from either of these gentlemen llA tilFli lllte VIII Dt tIlitlN Itlldult- The government of Mexico is one Of the best in the world; the laws are just and strictly enforced, while every inducement is extended to encourage the investment Of foreign capital in Mexico. Titles are perfect taxes low. and a great many Americans are i'm proving the golden opportunities of fered there. IL is not necessary to go to Mexico; just invest in stock being sold to equip new mines that are well developed and you will always win. Mir. Baiid will refer you to such new mines if you ask him to.
 A trial. on a small scale. will con- vince the most skeptical that in Mex iican mining prOpertycu wysedtowJe ican mining stock lies the road to wealth, and I write this hoping that others whose attention has not been called to the unusual chances for making money in Mexico, may be ben efited by my trip as much as I have been.
