OUR BLESSINGS BY CONTRAST

Mexico is the worlds greatest producer
 of silver, ranks second iE the production of copper and fifth in the output of geld. The cooper mines are located in the northern portion of the country and are large enough
 to protect themselves very well against ma rauding bands and have still continued to produce to some extent regardless of the revolution, but the gold mines are scattered throughout the whole country and have
 been powerless against the raids of brigands. -Mertzon Star
 In al the broad expanse of this terres-
 trial ball there is not richer subdivision of similar size than Mexico Richer, we
 mean, in the resources granted by nature. The Mexico hills are laden with precious metals; her valleys in the softer latitudes are sweet and mellow the vale of Cash mere; the forests are opulent with prized woods and the linlpid streams find their course to the s2a through picturesque and fruitful landscapes Fifty million men, women and children might dwell in Mexico consciously blest and constantly happy in their homes and domestic affairs, if they had but righteous government As it is, the fourteen millions who now try to make homes there are daily harassed by the agents of bad government, the ambitions of bad politicians and the alarms conse- quent to unsettled societies and warning fac tions greedy for control, We who have good government are too little appreciative of it. That which was bought with the blood of our fathers is too often sneered at by us their children, who in our ignorance of what tyranny is enlarge upon the petty imperfections that attach to even the most enlightened authority.
