Description
ONE generation ago American histories pictured Mexico as a land of volcanoes and palms, cathedrals, bandits and revolutions, and a dark-eyed race riding about in stages. Even in 1874 railroads and telegraphs, the veins and nerves of a nation, were unknown, and New York was a fortnight’s steamer ride from Mexico City; to-day they are but one hundred hours apart. Bandits and revolutions are now unknown, the only revolutions being of car-wheels and machinery belting.
