LEARNING ABOUT MEXICO.

We are learning more about Mexico
now in day than ordinarily we Would
/ in Washington Herald.
| A great deal of the information
about this country circulated in the
northern republic is inaccurate on
tinged with sensationalism, adds the
Mexican Herald. The most extraordin.
ary interviews are held with the most
ordinary people whose notions of Mex
leo, gathered in brief sojourn here,
are truly fantastic. Public men here
are judged by hotel and smoking COM
partment gossip, and the widest i'm
aginings are put into type.
But along with all this yellow-wash
the foreign reading public is bound
to get serious facts, is going to learn
of the great and varied natural re-
sources OF this privileged land, of the
immense investment of outside capital
here which in itself testifies to great
opportunities for matchmaking; in
short, the country is going to be better
known than ever
Another fact becoming known abroad
is that the rising middle class of this
country is contributing to the serious
political evolution of the nation. This
class may temporarily be misled, but
1t is thinking deeply and is going to
take, in the immediate future. an i'm
portant part in the conduct of public
affairs. The middle class is the prod
uct of favorable economic conditions
and of the public schools, and these
things in turn are the results of the
long peace.
The good things gained since 1877
are not going to be lost; all that is
valuable will endure, and the nation
will, after the political storm is over.
justify the confidence of its foreign
friends. There is very real patriot
ism here. and many serious thinking
men, both elements that inspire conf |
dence.
These facts we offer as a contribu. |
ton to the things that may profitably |
be learned about Mexico.

Popular Hostelry to Soon Present
Changed Appearance, Following
Long Time Lease by New Manage
ment.

The Golden Rule hotel on the cor
ner of Court and Johnson streets will
present a changed appearance on the

employed there now has completed
its labors of renovation, remodeling
and repair. These extensive improve

J. II. McFadden from 7. X. Beard, the
owner.
Mr.. McFadden and his wife have
been conducting the hotel since the

to secure a lease until last Tuesday
and hence had postponed their con-
templated betterment of accommoda-
tions. This work, which was started
last week, includes the renovation of
the building from first floor to third,
repapering and calcimining of the
rooms and halls The substitution
of new furnishing for all that is old
and worn. the removal of the lava
torres to more sanitary quarters. new
plumbing and the equippage of the
dining room for service.
When all this is done, the manage
ment Will have clean. comfortable
bedrooms and a parlor on the second
floor and 13 bedrooms on the third
floor. With the removal of the pres
ent laboratories a view of the spa
cious dining room can be had from
the office.
Mr.. and Mrs. McFadden are here
to stay and they declare their in
tentions of conducting a thoroughly
modern and up to date hotel.

Gilbert Piano Company Wins.

The Gilbert Piano company Satur-
day won its suit for the recovery of
a piano from H F. Peters, the jury
bringing in a verdict in its favor. Ac-
cording to the testimony introduced
1t seems that the defendant secured
the piano from an agent of the COM
pany as part security for a loan of
$500 and later had the piano signed
over to him as his personal property.
The company held that Mr.. Peters
claim upon the piano was in the ma
ture of a mortgage ana that the agent
was not authorized to mortgage any
of the stock of the company. The
jury allowed the company SIC as
rental for the piano as well as the
instrument itself. Johnson & Skrable
were attorneys for the plaintiff.

and there was a floating debt of 20
per cent of the annual revenue of the
city. After six months commission
government, the city began operating
on a cash basis and the bonded in
debtedness decreased by $4,000. More

was made while for less than one
half of the results accomplished in
the street department this year for

row from $4,000 to 100000 to carry

the council year to taxpaying time in

would pay 5 per cent interest This
year the commissioners did not bor-
row. Instead of paying interest they
managed to keep a cash balance in

Max Bloom is still funny as the
Yiddish comedian in The Sunny Side
OF Broadway" and he still has horse
to sell. 1t is also safe to say that the
audience at the new Oregon theatre
enjoyed the performance Saturday
night though they did not so into
Mysteries. Max Bloom is the main
laugh producer and at times he is ex-
tremely comical The remainder of
the cast is ordinary and as theatre
opener it might have been possible
for John Cort to have sent a better
production to the city. However the
remodelling of the theatre is not yet
complete so perhaps it does not mat
ter.
