NATURAL BOUNDARY FOR LOO
NILES.

Washington, July 5-While the
whole o. America is vitality concerned
in the present Mexican situation. the
great human drama IS being enacted
along 1900 miles Of boundary line
separating the four border states Of
California, Arizona, New Mexico and
Texas and the FIVE border states and
one territory Of Menco-Lower Cali
foruia. Sonora, Caihuzhua, Coauils,
Nueyo Leon and Tsmzulipzs. The
population Of the SIX Mexican states
IS 100. 900 compared with s,s10, 900
on the American SIDE, the former
constituting one ninth Of the total
population Of Mexico.
1t is an odd coincidence, says Z
statement from the national Geo
graphic society, that the four Ameri-
can states OF the border are, with
the exception Of Montana and the
territory OF Alaska, TIE four largest
political divisions In rae Union, while
three Mexican border stA,ss-Ch!hua-
hua, COhuila, and Sonora - and the
territory Of Lower California are.
likewise. the largest divisions OF that
republic.
All Of the American border states
we're a part OF the Mexican nation
up 10 the middle Of the last century,
when Texas seeded from the south
EN- republic and subsequently cast
her lot with the United States. Other
territory was acquired in the war Of
ls4s, the boundaries being fixed by
the treaty OF GusCalupe Hicalgo
which followed, and by the Gadsden
Purchase.

HUGE CORPORATIONS SHARING

ING POPULAR.

The bonus. as a method Of making
the emplOye a partner, Is Increasingly
popular. Representative Kating has
introduced a bill in the house OfJrep-
resentatiyes TO drive the stOp-watch
and bonus and premium system. from
the government arsenals and work
shops but the hundreds Of thousands
Of WOrkmen in scores Of companies

ing no protest against the system.
The General Chemical company has

and the amount of waste that is cur
tailed The Calumet & Hecla Mining
company has voted 10 per cent bo-
