Letter from C. Anderson, 1 January 1891

Fillmore City, Utah, . President W. Woodruff, Salt Lake City, Dear Brother: I have been quite busy since I met you and Bro. Cannon in your office, after having been released from the penitentiary, when you asked me to ^give you in^ writing my views and ideas in regard to Central and South America. While in the penitentiary I formed the ac- quaintance of a country man of mine, who was being held on ^a^ charge of illegal voting, who had traveled much in many countries, and who had been in Central and South America, and spent some years in Guatemala, which is the most northern of the five Central American Republics, containing something over 40,000 qr. miles, with a population of about 1 1/2 millions. The climate is tropical, but quite healthy as a rule, as the country consists mainly of table-lands of different alti- tudes. The soil is very fertile, and produces in profution a great variety of tropical fruits, bananas, bread-fruit, plantain, sarsaparilla, mahogany, logwood &c. Sugar cane and coffee are cultivated. When cane is planted once, it grows for ten years, producing two crops a year. Coffee is a profitable product for exportation. There are some rail-roads, one running through Guatemala from the Caribian Sea to the Pacific

There are a few points connected with this matter that I desire to bring to your notice: We had a good and efficient assessor and col- lecter, David Kilpack; but the good people of Huntington took it into their heads to have him removed; and succeeded in getting Elisha W. Jones elected by a majority vote, contrary to the wish and advice of the presidency of the Stake, as they believed he was entirely unfit for the position. This took place before brother Wm. Howard came into the pres- idency. Something over a year go, we held a ward con- ference at Huntington, and brother Jones' name was on the list for a teacher. In presenting the names before the people, I kindly made the suggestion, that Jones' name be withdrawn, as I could not sustain him in that position, till he gave some sat-
