A Nebraska Man Explain.* Mexico's )
Brand of Prosperity.
From tl>e Washington Post.
••1 will not deny that there i* a kind j
of prosperity in evidence in the Hejiublic !
of Mexico,"' said John A. Methane, of .
< liiiaha, at the Arliugton. Mr. McSliane
is at the head of a lar<*e milling concern I
that has been engaged in silver )>roduc- j
tion in the Mexican .State ol Chihuahua j
for the past ten years.
•It is of this sort: The (iovernment !
is largely back of it.and to the paternal !
fostering of the Diaz Administration it !
is mainly due. The Government sub- I
sidizes breweries, railroads, industrial !
plants and aids in every way to build up
the material resources of the country.
Money is used with a liberal hand, and
as a consequence there is much activity !
aud great apparent prosperity. The fact
that Mexico is on a silver basis does not j
figure; it cant help being on that kind of j
a basis, but I should be sorry to see the |
Suited States resort to any such policy.
"Ten years of experience in that j
country has iorevcr set me against the i
adoption of a monetary system which is
not only in disrepute among the leading !
nations of the world, but winch is about
to be discarded by countries like Japan,
Brazil and some of the smaller Spanish-
American (iovernnients that were form
erly on a silver basis. The masses in I
Mexico are in a worse condition than I
trust wiil ever befall our laboring popu
lation. This 1 can explain by referring
to matters that have come under uiy per
sonal observation.
••When the Sherman purchasing act
was in force, some six years ago, silver
was worth 81.21. and a I nited States 1
dollar was worth in Mexico 1(M) cents in I
Mexican money. The dollars of the two j
countries were on a parity. At this time j
we employed about .'{lift men in out J
mines, their pay ranging from SI to i
per day. It took approximately ;
810,000 a month to meet the pay roll, j
The money to cancel this expense was '
shipped from Omaha, and it was ex- ;
chauged for §IO,OOO of Mexican coin. !
We operated general merchandise stores
along with our mining concern and at ;
the time I speak of, sold to our Mexican |
employes bacon for 20 cents a pound.
' What are the conditions to-day '! We
still hire 1500 men and give them exactly
the same scale of wages that they ob
tained prior to the slump in silver caused
by the repeal of the purchasing clause of
the Sherman act. Our pay roll still I
aggregates SIO.OOO a month. To meet
this we have shipped us a like sum of
1 nited States money; anil there is where
the point of difference comes in. Instead
of exchanging that amount at our bank
for its nominal equivalent we get for it
not 810,000 but 8-%00(> of Mexican
m-iney. We have here made a clear gain
ut 812,000. Our employes still render j
us 1« 10 cents worth of work, for which '
they used to get lOH cents, aud do yet as
far as the name goes, but in reality they
receive less than half of what should be'
(heirs, seeing that the Mexican coin in
which they arc paid has shrunk to less |
than half ot its former value.
'Hut there is more still. When the]
Mexican miner goes to buy bacon he '
finds that in tendering payment he can
not buy it with depreciated money for i
20 cents a pound; the price is now 45 j
cents It would still be so if he could
tender a dollar as good as that given him !
for his labor at the time of the repeal of :
the Sherman law. The 812,000 I spoke
of simply tomes out of the labor of the !
country, and when the toiling class of j
any nation is forced to such a condition |
it is stretching a point to call the people
prosperous. If the fair and right thing ,
were done by these hard working miners
their wages would be doubled. The
man that now gets two dollars a day is
justly entitled B+, but labor will brintr
only what price is fixed in market, like
any commodity, and employers are not
yet far enough advanced in philanthropy
to voluntarily give more than the cus
tomary rate.
•So the talk about the prosperity of j
Mexico in so far as it applies to the vast i
body of its citizens—the common peo
ple—is a myth. If there is prosperity I
at all it is not due to the silver standard ;
but in spite of it."
Recipes.
Doughnuts—One cup of sugar, one
egg, one cup of sour milk, one tea- j
spoonful of lard, one teaspoonful of i
salt, one teaspoonfull of soda, flour to j
mix soft. Cut in rings and fry in
smoking hot fat.
Oatmeal Nectar—Pour four ounces j
of oatmeal into a porcelain kettle; add
six ounces of white sugar and a lemon
sliced thin; mix with a little cold water;
t hen pour on one gallon of boiling
water. When cold drain off, and it
will be a nourishing and refreshing
drink.
Cabbage Salad—Two raw eggs well
beaten, six tablespoonfuls of cream, 5
one-half teaspoonful of salt, six tea
spoonfuls of vinegar and a small piece
uf butter. Put on the fire and cook,
stirring constantly until quite thick. '
Have half ahead of cabbage chopped
fine, sprinkle with salt. Add to the !
dressing when cold two tablespoonfuls i
of cream and pour over the cabbage.
Tomato Sauce—One quart can of !
tomatoes, two tablespoonfuls of butter, |
two of flour, two cloves and a small i
slice of onion. Cook tomatoes, cloves,
and onion for ten minutes, heat the
butter in a small frying pan and add
the flour; when smooth and brown, |
stir into the tomato and cook ten min- j
r.tes; season to taste and rub through
a strainer. This is nice for fish, meat j
or macaroni.
