Mexico City, Mex.-The population
of Mexico City has increased more
than 100 per cent during the last ten
years, according to recent estimates
based on statistics, which fix the fig-
ure at approximately 100000. This
is far above the normal increase and
the influx Of persons is attributed as
due to revolts. Housing conditions,
as a result, are bad, and suitable
dwellings are at a premium.

Anybody but Drayton. and anything to de- feat him, will be the plan and pur- pose, and here's the reason: If Drayton once gets to Congress his audience of newspaper and maga- zine readers will probably be in- creased up to third Of the voters in the United States He has an audience of millions now. That's the real secret of the dread of Drayton's election. Let him once get the chance at the public ear a seat in Congress will give him, and Alaska conservation and all other of Pinchotism are going to be smashed through force of the public opinion he will create with his pen.

Editor News:
 As the newspapers have been tell ing US about the candidacy of Thos. J. Drayton, of Seward, who is like ly to be our next delegate to Con- gress, it strikes me 8 few words from one of his old-time friends might interest your readers, particu- larly as Mr. Drayton is but little known in this part of Alaska.
 He is around 40 years of age, weighs about 18O ponds and can snowshoe as far and as fist as any body I know; and in handling pick, rife or fishing rod, he can hold his own with any of the best of them. He makes the best speech I ever heard from an Alaskan, and in singing a literary pen, l sup pose you and all other Alaska news paper people know that he Is star performer. He is one of the first scholars in Alaska. if not the very first; and I imagine that even his political enemies would not de- ny him first rank as an authority on political science. He is rather careless in his dress and has been severely lampooned in the public press for not being more of dude. But I've seen him wear a clawham- mer, a long time ago, and I think he could come back to it if necessity He wore 9 high silk tile. too, although he told me at the time it reminded him of one vacancy above another. The Draytons are Kentuckians, originally from New York, where a branch of the family is still very prominent socially and He has nothing particu- larly in the way of property him. self, and no man could have who gives away his last dollar to any body who asks for it as freely as he does. That's the only criticism of him his enemies could ever make stick. although good many people don't like his open bluntness in ex- pressing his opinions. When he is sure of his facts, he is rather open and blunt in saying what he thinks, but you always know where to find him, and that trait hurts him none with me.
 He makes his living by writing for various magazines and string of big newspapers on the Outside.
 So far as l know, he was the first man to begin hammering conserva- ton as practiced in Alaska, and to predict that it would ruin the terri tory and drive out all population in time. He always thought Alaska conservation was a fraud masquer- ading under a respectable name; and as he can say things in an awfully polite way, but at the same time raise blister and leave nasty scar, he has come to be the most feared and hated man in Alaska by the friends of conservation.
 Now, a little prediction in clos ing. Drayton is strong in the coast towns, particularly where his writ ings are most seen, and if he gets around So the people can get a proper line on him, nothing can de- feae his nomination at the primaries The Democrats will be made to put up their very best man with a view to holding their party vote away from Drayton. Then likely lot of Independents will be put in the race
