Also, the agricultural work in these lowlands is done principally by peons, the climate being too hot and unhealthy for American laborers.
 "The water comes both from the mountain rivers and from artesian wells We only have to go from l50 to 200 feet at the City of Mexico, which is some 7,500 feet above the sea level, to strike artesian water and when this fact is taken into consideration some idea can be gleaned of what We are doing in the way of increasing our ir- rigation facilities.

AMAZING GROW I'll OF THT
 WEST AS SHOWN BY
 STATISTICS OF RAILROADS

In connection with the thirty-nintil anniversary of The comoletion of the first Pacific rail- oad, which occurred | few days ago, attention is called by ? writer in the June App eton's to the fact that when tbese railroads were pro iectcd the grould on which they were urged. aside from their importance as a military necessity, was that they wou'd afford an outlet for reaching or iental trade. It was held by those who advocated the building of the roads that they would give gerat incentive to the sale of American products in China and Japan. Apparently nobody at least among the members of congress who discussed the matter at great length. gave much thought to the ques
 tion of local business that the roads would obtain from the territory through which they ran. In fact the enormous bounties and land grants given to these early lines were bestowed with the idea that they would have almost nothing to depend on in the way of local freight.
 Tn view of this early attitude it is almost Imaginable to reflect that of the enormous total of traffic carried by the various western roads, % per cent orig. mates directly in their territory. While American trade with the orient has ex- banded tremendously, the early dreams of commercial greatness derived from this source have been surpassed by a far more wonderful dream realized right at home. Still the promoters of the Pacific lines are not to be blamed for failing to realize what was in store for these roads and for the great em- pire they have helped to develop, off in 1860 the total freight movement westward from the Missouri river into the Santa Fe district was lS,000 tons, and theer was no eastward movement at all. It was hardly to be foreseen that these figures would be multiplied nearly million times in little more than forty years. As the Appleton ar ticle points out this astounding growth has revolutionized the methods of rail road construction in the west. The newer western lines are being built for the business in the territory they tra- verse, to develop sections without trans portation, and to afford facilities for the rapidly growing tonnage of the Pa cific coast states, which the existing roads have been unable to handle.

POSTOFF|CE AT
 MORALES HAS B|G MUSEUM

Seldom day passes that some stran ger does not visit the Dead Letter mu scum, and after several hours of in spection fails in his attempt to find some article that ho may have misseni at some previous time, writes the No gales correspondent to the Repub ican Were it anything of value it would probably be arranged along the shelves of articles that go to make up the eur. ious collection in the museum, but were it a book it would probably be on the shelf of the library, and to that place he would direct his steps only to be thwarted in his attempts. as he could not have recognized it among so large number of books.
 The history of the library is one of interest, and will prove no doubt, at. traetive to those who have never seen it or enjoyed its privileges.
 It was originally library of refer. ence for the benefit of the officials of the postoflice department, as it con. tained full history of congress from the proceedings of the first day to the close of the fifty-second session, as well as the history of the organization of he office of auditor of the treasury for the postoflice department. But, in 1887, when MT. Villas was postmaster general an order was issued to the effect that all books sent through the mails, and unclaimed, instead of being disposed of It the public auction, should be placed in the library, and permission granted the clerks to use them, since which time 1t has been the source of great pleas Ire to many lwho heretofore derived no benefit whatever. Every year there i, received about two hundred and fifty books for which no claimants are found, md after n careful inspection has been made. those suitable for library are -etained, and the remainder sold at the annual sale of dead letter effects.
 There are many books of rare value )n it's shelves noticeable among those s the original manuscript journal of Hugh Finlay, the first postoflice inspec
 or from 1773 to l774, and also surveyor If post roads, It was offered to the department by Mir. Frank II. Norton, ,f the Astor Lobrary, New York, for s250.O0 and accordingly accepted, and purchased by MT. St. John B. l.. Skin eer, then first assistant postmaster gen eral, on March l2, 1869. It contains a detailed account of all his doings, to- gether with maps of the routes he trav- elled over, said maps having been ar tisticaly drawn with pen. and also states the time of departure of the mails from New York for all foreign points. The whole is bound in sheep skin and is in remarkably fine con dition.
 Another valuable book is sthe fac smile of the original manuscript of the ledger of Dr. Benjamin Franklin, who was postmaster general in l776. According to an account by Mir. w. w. Cox, formerly sixth auditor, every word, figure and mark was written by Benjamin Franklin and all accounts were kept in pounds, shillings and pence. each state having it's own eur.

Under the administration of President Diaz and his finance minister, Limantour, the financial system of the country ha. been rendered almost as sound as that of any country.
 "The country generally is in very prosperous condition just now. Build ing operations are resuming their won't cd activity and the marts of trade are teemng as in the good old days before the financial depression struck the country.
 Hundreds of mines closed down at the beginning of the furry are prepar. ing to reopen. The price of silver and other ores is still below normal, but it is the opinion of expert lnaneiers that this condition cannot hold out much longer.
 "About the most interesting topic with the general masses just now is the rumorcd consolidation of the Mexican National and the Mexican Central rail- ways.
