Excerpt from Mexico the Twentieth Century, Vol. 1 of 2
The gradual development of the country's abundant re sources, the continually increasing intercourse with the hustling and bustling strangers from Europe and the United States, the introduction of luxuries hitherto undreamed of; and, above all, the competition for his services in the field, the factory, and the mine, are telling upon the peon, and making of him more of a man and less of an animal. I have some hopes of the Mexican peon, provided he can be kept from the clutches and baneful influence of the peripatetic Socialist agitator, who has unfortunately already made himself a nuisance and a menace in the country.
In a previous work dealing with South American States, I pointed out the curious anomaly which exists in regard to names of numerous men and women, South American by birth.
