hundred people wer indebted to you in sums from so cents to $500?
And how would you like to meet those good people dy by day
without their thinking of offering you the small amount due you?
And how would you like to zee these same good people paying
their other bills promptly month by month and again forgetting yours?
And wouldn't you just revel in the knowledge that all of these
small amounts combined, if suddenly collected up, would swell your
bank account to the tune of $500 o $1,000?
When you reach the point where you a appreciate the grim
humor of such a condition, and keep right N smiling, O will have

1t is not far a day when the

THE OF THE
ARE UP
TO DATE

The schools of Guatemala are
the pride Of the country! 1t has
been one of the many good traits
of the Government presided by
Sr. Estrada Cabrera that he has
fostered schools and colleges.
This man hates militarism, and
firmly believes in civic rule for
the people. For him the educa-
ton Of the masses is the secret of
the greatness of the countries.
In the cities, in the towns, in
the villages, nc matter how small
nor how far, you will find schools
for boys and girls, free for evey-
body. The Government pays for
all, schools, teachers, books and
all that is needed to give illustra-
ton and education to the poor and
to the rich.
During the past year there were
scattered over the republic Of
Guatemala, go kindergartens, 26S
schools for children under eight
years of age, 1886 elementary
schools, and % high schools. Also
several commercial schools, where
bookkeeping, typewriting and en-
glish are taught. Three normal
schools for boys and three for
girls, supply the country with able
and learned teachers. Outside of
these, there are several Institutes,
where youngmen and youngladies
are prepared for university stu
dies. The Government pays for
two schools of Law, one of Medi-
cine, n of Dentistry, one Of
Pharmacy, one of Typographical
and Civil Engineering, one con-
s%ervatory OF Music, aside of minor
music schools in the smaller cities
and towns one military academy
where the future heads Of the ar
my are formed; many technical
and training schools, etc.

ed up in a very high style, and it

OUR ENGLISH T

LA Cronica" is the only
Spanish newspaper in San Fran
cisco, and the leading one in Cal
ifornia. Published in Spanish
every Saturday, reaches the home
of all who speak our sweet and
beautiful language, both rich and
poor. 1t has been the medium of
merchants to come directly to the
consumers, and in the year and a.
half of its existence, we have done
for our people, more than other
races have for theirs in like period
of time
We never publish news in En-
glish. It's uselessl But on this
particular occasion, we thought it
advisable to change our policy for
once. We desire to bring before
the American public, a few facts
about one of the richest countries
in the Western hemisphere, one
that is almost unknown, one that
deserves to bring the attention of
the world to its opportunities and
undevelopped resources: QUA
TEMALA.
We r glad to offer this infor-
nation, trusting that it will bring
results to that lovely country,
n of the best and more up-to-
date Of the latin-american Repu-
blics. 1t is unknown to MANY.
1t needs to be studied and un-
derstood.
Our regular edition consists of
tour pages, as already stated, all
printed in Spanish. We have a
large circulation, over twenty five
hundred subscribers; we are well
patronized by advertisers, and we
are thankful to all. On this pc
cial edition, we have solicited the
aid of a few of the leading Houses
of San Francisco. They have
kindly favored us with their sup
port. 1t is only an act of justice
and of gratitude, that we may
call the attention of our readers,
to those advertisers, figuring in

USEFUL HINTS FOR
YOU TO KNOW

Guatemala invites and urges the
coming Of proper immigrants.
The fields are broad, reckoning
to foreigners to go in and exploit
the latent resources.
The territory of Guatemala is
admirably adapted for the raising
of all kind OF stock, horned cattle,
horses, sheep and hogs; and also
every species of poultry. There
are many cattle-breeding estates,
but they are scarcely sufficient to
supply the home demand.
Mahogany, ebony and cedar are
the woods that are exported at
present; but the forests of the
country contain most valuable
timber, as serviceable to cabinet
makers, and turner's; some to
constructors, whilst others are
used for fuel.
Favored by the railway to the
Atlantic the expectation of bana-
mas, forms one of the branches of
agriculture most conducive to the
national well-being. During the
past year about, 100000 punches

nually, and is now the greatest
net work of wires that exists ir
Central America.
The submarine cable placing
the Republic in communication
with the whole world has beer
laid down. The postal service has
been organized in a manner tc
place it on a level with that of the
most advanced nations. Numer-
Gus roads for wheeled traffic have
been opened, and a great number
of bridges erected, and the first
railways have been constructed
and now-the Railway system OF
Guatemala is the most extensive
in Central America, and the most
important.
Revenues and buildings have
been raised for Government and
Municipal purposes, and for the
establishment Of charitable insti-
buttons. Handsome promenades
have been Created in the city OF
Guatemala itself, and in the prin-
cipal towns throughout the Repu-
bic. The enumeration of all
these works, of which many have
been carried out under the pre-
sent Govern nent would ill a vo-
lume.
Exhibitions have been held for
displaying agricultural, industrial
and meteorological products, as
well as for giving an illustration
of the results achieved in the ele-
mentary and professional schools.
and in literary, scientific and ar
tistic institutions. The army has
been organized on a footing com
patible with the needs of the coun-
try. The National laws have been
codified and reformed, in order to
harmonic them with the princi-
pies that serve as a norma for le-
gislation in those countries that
march in the vanguard OF modern
civilization.
The protection and privileges
granted to foreigners have been
such as to cause a considerable
development of immigration and
the laws dealing with the subject
are the most liberal of any that
have been promulgated by the ma
tons of the New Continent.
When we consider that not
withstanding the bitter struggle
that has had to be sustained in
Guatemala by modern civilization
against the IDEAS Of the bygone
times, it has been possible in a
period not yet reaching half a cen
fury to attain such practical and
manifest results in the way OF
progress, we are justified in be-
lieving, now that the paths are
thrown wide open to commerce
and agriculture, and hat a lasting
era of peace is guaranteed by re-
cent treaties, from now on, the
progress of Guatemala will march
in union with those forces, which
communicate to its impulse
steam, electricity and patriotism.
Recently, a party OF American
tourists visiting Guatemala, UNI
animously declared that they re
turn to their respective homes, as
much pleased by the hearty and
enthusiastic welcome that was ac-
corded to them, as they have been
surprised at the high grade of in
tellectual and material progress,
to be observed in this corner OF
the World, where the majority OF
them expected to find a lament
able condition OF backwardness
owing to the false reports daily
disseminated by a certain section
of the foreign press.
