Serious Trouble.
The newspaper laws Of Mexico .re
tery stringent. If any person is Men,
toned in newspaper article and feels
offended about it, he can easily send
the editor of the paper and the writer
of the article to prison. The state.
ments may have been far within the
limits Of truth and justice. but that
makes no difference. The editor in
communicate has chance to think
about the law and the aggrieved per
son smiles pleasantly. After awhile
the law gets in its work. the case is in
vestgated and the editor is punished.
for even the truth is libelous, and libel
is one Of the offenses most severely
condemned.
According to the theory of the Mexi-
can law. every person has right to 60
about entirely free from annoyance by
other persons. Ii the person violates
the law, the newspaper has no right to
say SO. 1t can lay information before
the courts if it wants to. but it must
not say in its columns that it has done
so. Then the law will step in and take
charge of the offender but the repre-
sentatives of the paper will not be al
lowed to attend the trial, and only the
bare result after weeks of waiting,
can be told to the public.
II the offense charged against the ed
itor is regarded by the first magistrate
to whom the complaint is made as be-

orally suppressed. The complaint has
been received and passed upon. Then

been used to satisfy those charges The earnings
of the HeckerJ onos-JeweH company were always
$4,000 month.
