lion. For example; assuming the
above named proportions to be
equivalent TO 200 ounces per ton,
and supposing ton of base bullion
exported by one OF the concession
aire companies to contain 800
ounces OF silver, such company
will be subject to a tax OF 3 per
cent with respect to 200 ounces,
and per cent With respect to 100
ounces.
But perhaps the most important
and striking feature Of the new law
ia the extension Of the mintage and
stamp taxes on ore. From being
absolutely free from federal taxes,
gold and silver ores are to become
of a sudden subject to the full s
per cent tax Of the law. less an
allowance in case OF expectation or
loss IN treatment. II may be urged
in favor Of this measuae that TO tax
the expectation of bullion and al
low ore to go out free is to offer a
premium on the treatment of Mexi :
can ores in foreign smelters. But
the prosperity of the mining in
dustry on which this new tax will
ultimately settle should be the
paramount consideration. There
need be no doubt that the estsb-
lishment here OF agencies of the
great American ore buying com
panies has powerfully contributed
to the recent development OF the
mining industry, and any measure
tending to curtall the operations
of the companies in question, or
otherwise impair the ability OF the
smaller minor concerns which con-
tinue operations, would be sincere.
ly deprecated.
OF course the mining interests
may adjust themselves successfully
to the new tax. but unfortunately
the federal taxes are not the only
burden which the production OF the
precious metals in this country has
to carry, Most of the states tax
heavily the historic industry Of
Mexico. Whether or not in so
doing they trench on the privileges
of the federal government in an
interesting question somewhat be-
yond our province. 1t may with
great seeming force be urged that
the federal government in succeed
ing on the consummation of inde-
pendence, TO all the rights OF the
Spanish crown. Becomes invest
ed with tho absolute ownership Ut
all the mines IN the Country. This
position is virtually assumed in
the practice followed in the is
suance OF mining titles and mining
legislator which has always been
considered as function apper
tanning exclusively to the federal
authority. The rights arrogated
by the states to tax the output OF
mines, would seem then a strange
anomaly. But this is a theoreti-
cal dicussion, end we leave IL to
more competent authorities our
only object being to point out the
practical drawbacks OF two inde-
pendent and cumulative systems
of taxations on the same form OF
wealth. The mine owners could
better afford to part with the mon.
ey that the federation claims from
them, were it not for the local
taxes. We may be sure however,
that the new legislation will not be
enforced blindly or inconsiderately.
The mining and ore buying com :
panies will no doubt make their
voices heard on the subject and

There has been but little money
spent on the veins of the Jicarilias;
and there have been no capitalists
interested in them; and until there
is more capital the development
must of necessity be slow. There
are about $50 men IN the camp and
most of them are engaged in pla--
Ger mining, which is adapted to
the poor mans means. This year
is the first time that the veins of

SENTIMENTAL OPPOSITION
The Ninth Ward Is testing Against
Changes
Councilman Blanchard's Constituency Does
Not Want to Lose
Good Thing

The proposed shifting of some OF the
engines in the fire department will after
all not come up for discussion at tomor.
rows session of the fire commission ers.
Commissioner Vetter will permit the
matter to sleep until TIE first meeting of
the board in Novem Der, when the order
to make the change goes into effect.
Then. should there be opposition to the
proposed change, there will be a contest.
Vetter and missioner Kuhrtz have
both discussed the matter since the for
mer's return from the east, and there will
be no severance of their pleasant pei
sonal relations no matter how the matt er
ends.
Most of the opposition against the
change comes from the residents of Boyle
Heights, and 1t is altogether sentim entail.
The people OF the Ninth ward do not
want their fine, big, new engine to leave
its prestent station. All of the insur-
ance men and the business men in the
down town districts are patting Com.
missioner Vetter on the back for the
stand he has taken in the matter. Com
missioner Kuhrtz appears TO be the only
Der of the fire board opposing the
change. The problem has placed Coun-
Gilman Blanchard III rather peculiar
position. While as an underwater he
might be inclined to favor the shifting
of the various engines in the fire depart
ment, he is compelled as the councilman

The board considered the application
from II. w. Chase and f. L.. Maxwell
for the return of certain moneys for
saloon licenses not used for sometime
after their issuance, and decided to re-
commend to the council that the money
be not returned. The reason for the
action taken was that when saloon men
take out licenses in advance it is for the
purpose of making some sort of gain
in business way, and the y usually gain
more than they lose by the step.
The application of f. G. Johsnnss1 for
license at 5li East Third street was
denied. 1t is the third separate and
distinct attempt to secure a saloon privi-
lese upon these particular premises. The
locality is a residence district and the
board will under no circumstances permit
a saloon to be there located.
