FOOTNOTES:[1]See "Mexico of the XXth Century," vol i., pp. 79, 83, 86, and vol. ii., pp. 101, 143, by the same Author.[2]These figures are in Salvadorean pesos=$0.403 U.S.gold.[3]This volume having to go to press a few weeks before the Return of 1910 will have been issued, the figures for the preceding year only are available.[4]Usance = the time which in certain countries is allowed by custom or usage for the payment of bills of exchange drawn on those countries.—Author.[5]The above statistics are out of date; the present population of the Republic of Salvador is estimated at 1,200,000.[6]These figures will, no doubt, be recognized by some of my more critical readers as a "repetition," having already been presented by me in previous chapters. But since I have, for the purpose of more ready reference, divided this volume into Departments, it has been deemed desirable to repeat the statistics of railway construction and road-building under each separate Department to which the figures bear any relation.—Author.
