MEXICO.
VI-Railway Development.
By FREDERIC J. HASKIN.

The railway development Of Mexico has
had more to do with the present pros
perity Of the country than any other one
thing except the guarantee OF peace
which the firm hand Of Porf1rio Diaz has
given the world. Prior to the rise Of
Diaz to power the policy Of the govern
ment was in the main hostile to railway
development. President Tejada strongly
opposed the building OF any railroad lines
which would connect Mexico with the
United States. He declared that the best
defense Of a weak nation against a pow
erful neighbor is an intervening desert,
and that he was thankful that the great
desert region Of Mexico interposed itself
between the Texan frontier and the cap
ital.
The first railroad built in Mexico was
the line Of the Mexican railway extending
from Mexico City to Vera Cruz. A con-
cession for the building Of this line was
granted in 1887. In 1854 a few miles OF
line outside Vera Cruz we're built. In the
succeeding year the first section Of the
lire out OF Mexico City was completed.
extending between the capital and duada-
lupe Hidalgo. When the builders came
to construct the road the government In
sisted upon q literal fulfllment OF the
conditions OF the concession. This called
for the construction OF the line from
Mexico City to Vera Cruz. The result
was that the railroad company was COM
PEELED to transport the supply Of rails,
bridge material and other equipment from
Vera Cruz to Mexico City BY mule and
OK team. When 1t is Remembered that

uchioHstTdteQ Dut one weak point. Inc.
law does not recognize the virtue Of low
rates for virgin territory and will not
permit q railroad to give a low rate on a
certain commodity In a certain commu-
nifty without giving the same rate on that
commodity to every other community in
Its territory. For instance. some little
distance out of Mexico City there are
some small lumber districts. The national
lines have opened up new timber territory
IN northern Mexico and desire to make a
low rate to Mexico City, so that their
lumber can enter the city on equal freight
rates with the lumber originating nearer
to the capital Yet they cannot do So
without changing every other lumber rate
1t might be supposed that with the
Mexican government owning a controlling

the republic, its system would be given
preference over the privately owned lines.
But the contrary IL true. It's lines must
compete with the Independent lines on
Identical terms. Every phase Of the ma
tional railway law applies to the opera
ton OF the national lines as well as to the
private lines. Its system cannot be ex-
tended without first obtaining q concso-
sion. Its building Is scrutinized by gov.
eminent engineers, and when the line 10
completed 1t must measure UP to certain
standards before II can be opened to the
use Of the public. All interstate roads
are built on concessions obtained from the
federal government, and the state govern
ments have no jurisdiction over them.
The government cannot reduce a rate
during the life of the concession, except
under extraordinary circumstances, and
even then 1t must agree to indemnify the
railroad for any loss II may sustain BE-
cause OF the reduced rate.

government was In power the Mexican
Railway Company favored it's maintenance
and found itself in bad odor With the re
publican government whicH succeeded
the reign OF Macmillan. But in spite of
this the Mexican railway was fairly
treated, and the through line to Vera
Cruz was opened in 1873. !. This line is
operated today by English interests ana
it's service is as modern as that Of the
majority Of: American railroads. :
It also operates, in conjunction with the
Rovernment-owned Vera Cruz and 18TH
mus and the Tehuantepec routes. a
through sleeping car service between
Mexico City and Salina Cruz, the prin-
cipal Pacific coast port. This service at
fords one Of the most remarkable rail-
way trips in the world. Leaving Salina

The september woman's Home


The September Woman's Home
Companion is the advance fall fash
ion number of that periodical. II
contains an immense amount of
fashion news that will interest and
be of practical service to women.
Grace Margaret Gould, who con-
ducts the fashion department of
the Companion, does her work ad-
mirably; that is, her object seems
to be-not to present fashions in a
way that will influence women to
waste money on clothes, but in
way to show the great mass of wo-
men how they may dress fashiona-
bly, and yet at reasonable cost.
On the entertainment side the
September Companion is an unusu-
al number. Notable and lively fic-
ton is contributed by Alice Brown,
Annie Hamilton Donnell, Anna Nc
Clure Sholl, Mary Heaton Worse,
John d. Swain and others.
Eight special articles, full of new
facts and ideas, are included. The
titles of some of these are: What
Companion Readers Think About
the Cost of Living" 1.-The Boy and
Some of His Opinions" 1.-THE Mod
ern Woman's Paradise" House

Fourteen special departments,

KANSAS SOCIETY NOTE
SOMETHING "HAPPENED"

The guests at Mrs. Arthur Mics
tea detected an odor of something
burning. They looked at each 9TH
er knowingly and said: Poor
Mrs. Mize, something is burning up
in the kitchen" But the odor grew
stronger, and at last one woman
said: at smells as though feath-
ers are burning" Then suddenly
one woman screamed: Mrs. Chal-
Hiss, look at your hiatt" Sure
enough, Mrs. Jim Challiss had been
standing near a lighted candle
and the aigrette on her hat was on
fire.
The guests had q great time put
ting out the fire. The aigrette was
what the insurance men call a to-
tai loss. An Atchison woman who
has gone to thousands Of receptions
says the burning of the aigrette is
the first time she ever knew any
thing to really happen at a recep-
tion. She had given up going be-
cause nothing ever happened, but
now she will start in over again.
