Mexico's Burden of Free Silver.

Michigan Iron Ore: The Detroit Tribune has a staff correspondent in Mexico. He describes the population of that country as being half beggars, and the balance doing poorly. He says everything is impoverished, and that thg tales being told of the success,of that country are lies. pure, cold and simple. Aud the correspondent is right, and truly describes the condition. The reason that we refer to this is that certain free silver champions delight in calling attention to the wonderful strides being made by Mexico under the 16 to 1 plan. ,
