Excerpt from Calexico: King Cotton's Capital Calexico lies at sea level on the slope, imperceptible to the eye, that runs northward from the highest ground in the delta to the Salton sink. The mountain ranges that enclose Imperial Valley on three sides can be seen from Calexico, the nearest only twenty miles to the west and seeming to be much nearer. The city is 267 miles from Los Angeles by rail, about 140 miles from San. Diego, and 61 miles from Yuma. The Colorado river is 40 miles east of Calexico in an air line, and its new course through the delta is about thirty miles to the south.

Excerpt from Here and There in Mexico Of all that extensive Empire which one. Acknowledged the authority of Spain in the New World, no portion, for interest and im portance, can be compared with Mexico - and this equally whether we compare the variety of its soil and climate; the inexhaustible stores of its mineral wealth; its scenery, grand and picturesque beyond example; the character of its ancient inhabitants, not only far surpassing in intelligence that of the North American races, but reminding us, by their monuments, of the primitive civilizations of Egypt and Hindustan; or, lastly, the peculiar circum stances oi the Conquest, adventurous and romantic as any legend devised by Norman or Italian bard of chivalry.

Excerpt from Trading With Mexico This book is not a radical document. It does not seek to explain the problems of to-day in terms of to-morrow. The author finds in the radical movements of the present the leaven of the fu ture - little else. He sees in the upheavals of our day a searching for some essential truth which will be a clarifying factor in this time of chaos and distrust. He does not see in them the final solution of any of the difficulties which hatched them out into a too ready world. Nor is this book reactionary. The author be lieves that the day of Diaz is long past in Mexico, that the day of the dreamer of utopian visions Madero - is past in Mexico. He seeks in the pres ent and in the future the sane, firm grasp of actual ities which to the watcher on the tower is the only hope of true progress. He sees in the orgies of Carranza and his immediate successors not the upsurgence of mighty ideals, but of personal am bitions and crass disregard of the bases of all human progress He seeks, in the whirling chaos of the present, a firm footing. He seeks to give the direction of such understanding as he may have to those who think with him. He believes that if he gives such a direction to them, it will enable them to go forward to the winning of some of the vast profits which await them in the Mexi can market.
