Agricultural implements are not
hTaxodD


OF all dishonest charges made by
the ioes of protection, that which
says farmers are taxed 45 per cent.
on their agricultural implements is,
perhaps, the most gr0undlesS. A
simple illustration will make this
clear.
The farmer buys a pow Of the
local agent for. say, Sl2. The "re-

Ing farmers from their allesience to
protection. comes along and tells
him Shrt the tax on that plOW is 40
per cent. The good man takes out
his pencil, multiplies the price he
paid ny the rate per cent, and finds
that, if the "refOrmer" tells the truth.
the "tax" is So 40. The "reformer"
knows that the farmer will arrive Al
this result, and he also knows how
absurd it is. but he takes good care
not to correct the figures.
Now, even if the farmer did pay
the whole of the 45 per cent. tariff.
| the amount of the "taX" is nothing
{ ike this sum. The duty is not com
puted on the retail price, Sl2, but on
the wholesale price, which, at most.
is not more than half of this amount.
Suppose, then, that the wholesale
price of the American pioW is S..
Any honest free-trader will admit
that the 45 per cent. tariff is not
paid by the consumer unless equally
good foreign pIoWs can be imported,
and, with duty added, be placed in
the American market at Sc apiece.
But the 45 per cent. must not be
ccGnpued on the Sc which the ploW
brings in this country. but upon the
price at the English or German mar =
uIactory, which price. with the 45
per cent. duty added, must equal S6.
That is. instead of multiplying Sc 10y
As, which would give 500 as the
tariff, Sc must be divided ny 1.45 to
obtain tie true base, the base in the
foreign market.
The price would be S414, and 45
per cent. of this would he 81 Sc. true

gives just Sc. the price at which it
must sell here, in order 10 compete

tax" then, even according to the
"reformer's" own theory, would be
only SlS6. instead of So 40, AS he
ds-ignedly tried to lead the farmer
to suppose.
Even these figures do not do jus.
tice to the "reformer's" daring in
preventing truth. The calculation
is based, a5 has been said. upon the
assumption that Il foreign made
plew, equal in all respects to the
American plOw, could be placed upon
the market at Sc. the price at which
the latter sells. Now, the fact is
that such conditions do not exist

FAIR FACTS.
Latest as to the Extra Train Service En-.
tries to Close Tomorrow.

1t seems more than probable that the
A., T. & S. F. will order on a special day
train service to run between Santa Fe
and intermediate points to Albuquerque
and return during fair week. General
Agent G. II. Morehouse was in Las Vegas
yesterday comforting with Supt. Ctas.
Dyer on the subject and he telegrsphed
the New MEXICAN from Albuquerque at
noon to-day saying: "Think we shall be
able to accommodate Santa Fe on day
train service to the fair. Win advise you
later"
The Board Of Trades committee has
designated DR.. Andrews to gather an d
exhibit a general collection of Santa Fe's
choicest fruits and vegetables at the fair,
and the doctor has secured room at A.
T. Grigg's store where the collection is
now being packed and made ready for
shipment. 1t is urged that all parties
having choice fruits, vegetables, grains
and other products, suitable Tor exhibition,
send the same to this room tomorrow.
Entries at the fair will close tomorrow,
and 1t Is necessary that notice OF all ar
ticles to be entered from Santa Fe be sent
down to the officersof the fair association
by to-night's mail. Entry blanks may
be had upon application to John Morton.
The New MExlcAN's book bindery de-
partment has been so busy that it is
doubtful if its workmen can finish up in
time the blank book display it was in
tended to make at the fair, but the New
MEXICAN will have on exhibition in the
art department an oil painting that will
be worthy the attention of amateurs.

STRUCK 1T RICH.
The Tijeras Water Company Solves
Great Problem for New Mexico.

Col. j. Frank Chaves received letter
this morning from, Pedro Simpson, who
has charge of the Tijeras Water COM
pany's undertaking near Albuquerque,
which would seem to indicate that an
other and highly important source from
which water for irrigation may be relied
upon..,has been discovered to be prac-
ticable i'm New Mexico. The Tijeras
company, in which Col. Chaves is inter
ested and which is designed to give Albu-
uuerque additional water facilities, has
undertaken to cut trench to bed rock in
Tijeras canon, put in tight wall and hold
the underfow that now seeps through the
sands, so that the water may be held in
place, in a storage reservoir, to be drawn
off in pipes for distribution to consumers.
At Silver City a similar enterprise has
proven successful, but there the condi-
tons are unusually favorable, so that, I'M
til now, this method of water develop
ment has been regarded In the light OF
an untried experiment.
However, tno SucCesS az llJeraS has
practically solved the question and it will
60 long way toward encouraging similar
ventures in various parts of the territory.
1t has now come to be regarded as a
fact that much more water gathers in the
mountains and sinks to bedrock in the
sands of the small water courses and
arrovos than has heretofore been calcu-
lated upon by the most enthusiastic by
draulic engineers; in fact, it is thought
that the surface flow constitutes but a
very small percentage OF the water that
can be developed and kept in place by
efforts properly directed and which are
comparatively unexpensive. But as to
the success of Tijeras. Here is deep
canon opening out from the Sandia noun
tains onto the mesa, ten miles distant
from Albuquerque, where there is always
more or less surface water, but not
enough to justify the attempt to convey
it for any considerable distance in pipes.
In order to "prove up" the supply, as it
were, they let contract to Mr.. Simpson

however, that there were large amount
of uncollected taxes and licenses on hand
and with these the new sheriff declined
to have anything to do. He said he
could not under any circumstances re-
ceive this "heritage of Democratic mis-
rule" and so far as concerns these mat
tiers the county board will have to settle
with the former sheriff and collector be
fore the new official will touch them. 1t
is probable special meeting of the board

the matter.

Hon. E. A. Fiske got home last night

grape shipping season is at it's height,
and great business is being done. From
the Tularosa valley, however, comes to
Cruces such fruits as are calculated to
convince one that even the famous Santa
