HOG RAISING IN MEXICO-
A prominent writer on agricultural
eubjeo'e In Mezloo, Mr. George D.
Oolem&D, eoys in the Two Repabllos:
“Hog ralelng Is one of the most pro-
fitable Industries the agriculturist can
angage Id In Mexloi. This Is an In-
dustry whsr* the supply never equals
tha demand From Deo. 181)5 to Deo.
189C, 1,417,855 pounds ware imported,
and from th* train loads of hogs that
have lately corns to th* ooautry, the
report of this year will show larger
than last yaar. The Importation of
ham, bacon and lard greatly ezoted the
tonnage of the live hog Importations.
Tha wholesale value of ths hog Impor-
tation tu tha City of Mezloo U from
13o to 15o per pound, hams 45o, bacon
37o and lard 18 to 20o per pound
“la the towns la the state of Vera
Cruz, and tu moat of the particular dlt-
trlot of ooautry 1 am deaortblng, lard
la hard to gat at 35o per pound, tome-
times le sold for more. Ham* and
baoon are a rarity at any prtoe, th*
Uttla bog mast at hand either belDg
eaten fresh or ealted for dally use.
“The native hog le a 'razor book,’
and hard to fatten and a two hundred
and fifty pound hog a rarity and would
•all any where In thl* ooautry from |30
to NO.
What la this the oeuntry hear* from
Senator Chandler, Republican, and
lately a vehement enemy of Democ-
racy? “Th* United Slates should not
acquiesce permanently lu the siDgle
gold staudary ?” “I he depreciation of
proparly lu the United States siuoe 1890
has been 35 per oent," and this fall of
values and tha fall of valuta in other
oouDtrlae “has be*D due to the pro-
gressiva steps lu the demonetization of
ellvei?" Suoh “continuous shrinkage
of property and such an Increasing
burden of debt cannot be long endured
without widespread bankruptoy ?" “If
It had uot been for the fortunate bal-
ance of trade lu favor of the United
S'ates lu 189G there would have beau a
ostaolysm In this ooautry whlob would
have prostrated all Interests?" “To
ths system of bimetallism from whloh
we have departed?’’
Well, well! What is th* ooautry to
ihlnkofthls? Don't we all know from
McKinley’s spe ohes, th* “sound
mousy" spellbinders, th* newspaper
defenders of the nation’s honor, that
the gold standard Is what we need and
must have; that If we abandon It w*
shall sink from smiog the most high-
ly civilized nations, Turksy ..Included,
to the level of Mezloo and China?
Haven’t they told us often enough that
a return to bimetallism weald be dis-
honest; that It would be repudiation
and robbery, and that those who ad-
vocate It are Anarohlsts? Haven’t they
settled It ouoe and for all that the fall-
log markets since 1873 have been due
totmprcvsd machinery toluoreas* com
petition, to an overbalancing of tb*
demand for by the supply of labor, and
that prloes haven’t fallen sines 1873,
anyhow? Haven’t they proved con-
clusively that we shouldn’t have had
any hard times but for the destruotlon
of oonfideooe by publlo discussion of
what alls u‘?
Aud yet bere comes Senator Chan-
dler, who last year was shouting and
working against bimetallism, and says
that Bryan and Damooraoy were right,
after all, and that the only thlog that
will save the ooautry Is the vary thing
he helped to make Impossible last
November!
