The warm weather has brought out
door sports prominently to the front,
and pugilism has taken back seat for
the time being. 1t is not likely that
there will be any important contests
during the summer, as other matters
will engross the attention OF lovers Of
sport. When he is not using his fists,
the pug Is industriously wagging his

nevertheless be afflicted with great

Manufacturing plants are starting up

awhile we will be Independent of
foreign nations, for we will make the

"There is a prohibitive duty of $40
a barrel on flour Imported from any

natives are raising wheat and importa-
tons have entirely ceased. We have
first-class roller mills of the latest
type, and they turn out as fine flour
as is sold anywhere.
Right now there is a great rush of
immigrants into the country about
Tampico. Americans are coming in
and buying big tracts of land for cof-
fee planting. Coffee is a sure and
lucrative crop, burt in addition there
is plenty of money to be made in other
things. There is no country that of
fcrs such inducements to capital as
Mexico, nor to young men who are not

WANTS MORE ANTr-cHINEsE LAW
Secretary Carlisle Asks for the
Amenhme ent of The Prescnt Stntutes.

Secretary Carlisle Asks for the
Amendment of the Present Statutes.
WASHINGTON, May 1.-The secretary of
the treasury today sent to the house the
draft of a bill amending the Chinese eX-
clusion laws. 1t provides that in cases af-
fecting the right of Chinese to enter or
remain in the United States, or where per-
sons of Chinese descent claim the right
to re-enter the United States as citizens,
there shall be required the testimony Of
other Chinese persons. In explanation of
the necessity for such a law the secretary
says that in many instances Chinese apply
for admission to the United States on the
ground that they were born in this country
and visited China with their parents where
they remained for many years, and in
every instance the testimony of Chinese per-
sons in support of their claims is pre-
sented. 1t has been held by the courts that
such testimony, when uncontradicted, is suf-
ticient to establish the claim.
A law similar to that asked for by the
secretary now applies to returning merchants
and he only wants the principle extended.
In case where the afidavts of the Chinese
were taken before a notary and in a trial
which followed 1t was held that there was
no law under which affidavits could be
taken before notaries public and that the
charge Of perjury therefor could not be sus-
tanned. The secretary asked that If the law
is amended, punishment be provided for
persons convicted of making false aflidavits

the bill. urging the migratory nature of the
white population and the improbability that

the bill came from Alaskan corporations. In
