DAVE THOMPSON AND MEXICl
What the Big- Nebraska Kan it Doing
Down There.
BUSY WITH RAILROAD BUILDING
Soaietmln About the KeaTioa Throogh
Which Ills Line Will Ram and
the Service It Will
Give.
David K. Thompson, president of the
Pan-American railroad, which runs for
some 267 miles along the coast of lower
Mexico and then jumps over into Guate
mala for a short distance, is In New York.
Mr. Thompson used to be ambassador to
liraxll and later to Mexico. He has filled
every place on a railroad from truckman
and brakeman up. iTe recalls that many
years ago. when he was a conductor, he
put off a train of which he was In charge
Walter Wellman. who was riding on a
pass which Mr. Thompson didn't think was
all right.
For the last twenty years Mr. Thompson
haa been Interested In Mexico. He says
that law and order are much better estab
lished in that country than In many part
of the I'nlted States, and that life Is a
'reat deal safer, and Instances in support
of this that In proportion to the popula
tions there Is only, one murder In Mexico
for every nine that are committed In this
country.
"Much of the erroneous opinion that ex
ists in this country regarding Mexico and
its people is due to certain magazines and
newspapers," said Mr. Thompson In a
New York Sun Interview. "I have been
lamlllar with Mexico for twenty years, and
1 say unhesitatingly that conditions In the
country are a good as they are anywhere.
The people are different from those of this
country and the system of government has
to tie different. Nevertheless the whole
administration Is very Just and the system
is not oppressive; not even harsh, except
when necessity compels such a course.
"As a matter of fact. If you take the
canes that come up from day to day more
room for criticism Is shown here than
there. Three months ago I was at Pales
tine, Tex., when the negro raid took place
near there and a lot of negroes were killed,
if that affair had taken place In Mexico
some of our papers here would have called
it a revolution. '
-North nad Booth ttoett.
"Our Pan-American railway starts at
San Huron! mo, tvhicn Is forty miles west
of Callus) Cfux, and runs along- to the
Guatemalan frontier, the direction being
almost easterly, end I completed all that
distance. W are now building a bridge
across the river at that point, and have
two miles to go In Guatemala to connect
with the Ocos road, which runs Into the
richest coffee district ia the world.
"No mining of any consequence has yet
been don along the road, which Is In full
operation aa far as Marlscal on the Guate
malan border, but the country la rich In
lulnerala. It is aiao a fin agricultural
region, being somewhat like California,
only the soil Is richer. For a distance of
1O0 miles from the coast the rainfall is am-'
pie. There Is a lot of timber sawing and
cattle farming In the country, and over
300,000 people live In the country that Is
tributary to the railroad. There are big
rivers that start In the mountains beyond
and run to the gulf, and their valleys have
been- farmed for hundreds of years. There
are hacleadan there that have been In ex
istence for centuries, and the people who
have anything at all are rich. At the time
our road was started 1 saw an ox train of
freight being taken up into that region,
and In It were twenty pianos. Across the
country Is an old highway that afforded
the only route for freight before the rail
road got there, and thin wan used a great
deal by people going to California In the
early days. '
"On the Teh uan tepee National railway
between Puerto, Mexico, and Sallna Crux
business la so great that the road cannot
keep up with the freight that Is offered It,
and they are talking now of double track
ing. Thero are a great many Americans
In southern Mexico, -but not so many as
are In some other portions of the country.
Prog-rcaa of the (esstrr.
"The first time I was In Mexico was In
Wt. I did not visit the country again until
1830 and the change !n that time was
marked, but In the last twenty years it Is
so marvellous that one who had not known
Mexico then would lie unable to appreciate
the difference. In 1871 a man's property
was anybody's If the latter could get away
with it. Nowadays property rights are as
secure as in the United States.
"The cities of Mexico are growing, but
they don't pay the same attention to the
growth of cities there as they do in the
United States. They want to get the coun
try settled up. Hut they do a great deal
.to Improve the cities materially. Vera Crux
up to the last four or five years was a
yellow fever pest hole. 'Now Its sanitary
arrangements are so nearly perfect that
they don't have yellow fever there at all
except when It is brought from some other
place on the gulf, nnd then thev prevent
It from becoming an enlilemlp. MeriHu n
Yucatan, is one of the cleanest and pretti
est cities anv where. It In kepi all the
time looking like a newly swept floor.
"Unfortunately, a lot of American wild
cat schemes have done harm down there,
not only fake mining projects, but planta
tions that Were never planted or perhaps
existed only In the form of attractive
i literature. Any lejrlt'male scheme In
Mexico is a good one and will work out
well, 'but a gel rich quick scheme there Is
no better for the Investor than the same
Institution nearer home.
j "The br'dge v.e are building to carry the
i road Into Guatemala will be I.JUO feet Ions.
and the r.ver it crosses is the only quick-
