 Mexican Herald: A New York dispatch says. Negotiations are under way for the sale yf 150, ,0O0 shares Of the stock Of the Mitchell Mining Company to \ prnminent mining corporation. The Mitchell is capitalized at $5,000,0DD, the par value of the shares being $10.

It is Expected that the property will ultimately have an output Of about 10 900 GOO pounds q year. Robert I. HiIl's report on the property shows 100000 tons of probable ore already blocked out. The mines are about fifty miles from the Pacific ocean and arailway k now being built hy the company to a harbor twelve miles east Of Aca pulco.

After deter mining from personal inspection of the conditions that Mexico City later may afford an excellent site for the establishment Of a plant for extracting rubber from the guayule shrub, T.. B. Aldridge, son of Sen ator Aldridge Of Connecticut. and president Of the Continental Amer ican Rubber Company, left last night for San Francisco where he goes to confer with his associates in the company. While here. MT. Aldridge was guest Of the ltnr bide hotel. AS outlined by Mr. Aldrich prior to his departure, the plans of his company are for the establishment of extraction plants wherever the gayule weed may be found in sufficient abundance to warrant the setting up of the machinery Some of these plants will be stationary, while others will be so constructed that when the rubber shrub in the neighborhood has been depleted the machinery operating the plant may be taken up and located elsewhere.

The Reciprocity Congress to be
held at Chicago, August IS, will have
a difficult problem to settle as to
which prote cted industries and trusts
will be willing to sacrifice part Of the
protection they now enjoy under the
tariff law. They all, like Mark Twain
are willing to sacrifice their wife's re-
latives, but wheni comes to forego-
ing some of their own. profits they
will with one accord beg to be excused.
The history ottariff legislation shows
that the friends of Protection-the
Republicans cannot reform the tariff
EXCEPT to reform it higher and that
they dare no. do for fear OF the tariff
tax payers, the people who are already
protesting that the present tariff,
and, confequent high trust prices
are pluudering them to the
limit.

The grounds at the old water works

Senator Plat, colleague of Sena-

But this ris ing, as scripture abupd-

far from penitent. In his Paris inter

Special rebates and d'scriminations
in favor OF individuals and corpora
tions 10 the ruination Of competitors
is clearly shows in the case OF the adj
vantage gained by the Kansas Salt
Trust over the independent salt pro-
ducers of that state. The Interstate
Commerce Commission in its in vesti-
cation developed one OF the most IA
grant cases of rebeting and law break
ing that the members Of the commits
sion have found since first this sub
ject engaged their attention. Hear
ings in this case were held in De
cember 1908 and decision was
promptly rendered in January 1904,
and the Commission found the facts
c ,mplsined OF plainly illegal" AS
required by the criminal sections Oh
the act to regulate Commerce the
Commission referred the evidence ard
its findings to the Attorney General
OF the United States for prosecution
in the Federal Court, but no action
appears to have been taken by the At
torney General or his subordinates
The evidence produced show
ed that two brothers OF Paul
Morton, the late Secretary OF the
Navy, are the officials of the Salt
Trust and the rebates we're granted
by Paul Morton as Vice-President OF
the Santa Fe railroad with especial
supervision over traffic agreements.
The fact that Attorney General
Moody has taken no steps to prose
cute:the Mo ton brothers, may not be
due TO the fact that Paul Morton has
been member of the Cabinet, but it
certainly looks that way. 1t can hard
ly be possible that President Roose-
welt is protecting the whole Morton
famil, in their unlawful acts, although
he did exouerate Paul Morton from
personal completely in the other San
ia Fe rebate cases
The duty of the Interstate Com
merce Commission ended when they
referred he case to the Depa, tment
of Justice and whether their work is
to count for nothing remains with
President Roosevelt, who has shown
no signs of compelling his Attorney
General to prose cute these offenders
and allow a square deal between the
Salt Trust and its competitors.

Reciprocity cannot be accomplish

part of the two parties to treaty.
Each country must sacrifice some CT

That is what prevents the ratification
of re ciprocity treaties by the United

represent, they object to any recipro-

together they have prevented the ra-
tifcaton of the treaties.
This state OF affairs can hardly be
remedied until the people elect repre-
sentatives and the state Legislatures
elect Senators who will represent the
peoples interests instead of the in
terests of the protected trusts. The
two Senators from New York and pro-

called trusts and these trusts have
seen to it that the Republican leaders
have been protected in return.
The railroad corporations, the banks
and trust companies, the insurance
corporations and the Industrial trusts
are nearly all controlled by the same
interests and the Republican party as
represented in Congress represents
those allied interests more than it
does the people.
To unhorse the trusts and comb Dimes
there must first be established recip-
rocity between the Congress and the
people and that cannot be until the
republicans are defeated.
