New mining Law Proposed for Mexico.

The following is an editorial taken from the Chihuahua Enterprise, rela- tive to the proposed changes in the minig laws of the republic Oi Mexico:
 ''The leading topic in this import ant mining center continues to be the new law proposed by OlegariO Molina minister of fomento in Pres. Diaz's cabinet. All foreigners engaged in that industry are anxiouslv inquiring as to the meaning and effect of the clause prohibiting foreign corpora tions from operating in this country. The law speaks for itself and that is exactly what it says.
 Mining men are asking the ques tion as to how such a law, if passed, would effect foreign corporat O Is al ready operating here? WouId such law be retroactive?
 "That question requires lawyer to answer it. Here is the sit'Iatio Foreign corporations can be legaliz-d in Mexico and a very small percent age of them are, but the corporation taxes proportioned according to capi- talization are so extremely high that they are practically prohibitive. The favorite plan is to organize Mexican holding company with a small capi- talization and the large foreign com pauy owns the stock of the former.
 'In our opinion the proposed law could not apply to foreign corpora tions previously legalized here and doing business, but how it could effect those not so legalized and doing busi- ness through their smIll Mexican companies, we do not pretend to be able to say.
 ''That producing mining companies are already taxed quite heavily there is no denying and there is nothing in Mir. Molina'S proposed law, so far as we have seen, lessening the corpora tions taxes which would necessarily be added to the present taxes.
 "As to the proposed law prohibit ing foreigners from locating mining claims in border states of their re- spectiye countries, there has been such law regarding the twenty lea que limit on the border. The Mexi- can government has been very liberal in allowing mining Announcements in that strip. Now it is proposed to ex- tend this same law over all the border states. It is natural to presume that the same liberality in granting per r.its will also be extended.'

Roosevelt and the Presidential Candidate
 Taft

Immediately upon receiving the news of the nomination ot Taft Pres ident Roosevelt said:
 ''I feel the country indeed is to be congratulated upon the nomination of Taft, I have known him intimately many years and have a peculiar feel ing for him because we have worked for the same object and with the same purposes and ideas. I do not believe there could be found in all the COun- try a man so well fitted for president. He is not only absolutely fearless, disinterested and upright, but he has the widest acquaintance of the na- tion's needs without and within, and because of his sympathies for all the citizens he will be emphatically the as was Lincoln. Yet not Lincoln himself was freer from the least taint of demagoguery of the slightest tendency to arouse antagonism that would impel class hatred of any kind.
 He has a peculiar and intimate knowledge and sympathy for the needs of all our people, the farmer, wage worker, business man and prop erty owner. No matter what mans occupation, social position, creed color or section ot the country whence he comes, if he be an honest, hard working man, who tries to do his duty toward his neighbor and his country, he can rest assured he will have in William H. Taft the most upright representative, the most fearless champion.
 "Taft stands against privilege and pre-eminentIv for the broad princi- ples of American citizenship in which lie the foundation of our na- tional well being.'

ROYCE FILES REPORT.
Makes Recommendations for Changes
in State Banking Law.

| Before turning over the office of state
bank commissioner to w. S. Albright
today, John Q. Royce, the retiring COM
missioner, filed with Governor Hoch his
final report.
| This report gives the results of Mr..
Royce's last two years of office, and Of
! fers many important recommendations
! for the work to be done at the coming
session of the legislature with relation
to the banks of Kansas.
! Mr.. Royce's recommendations are for
the enactment of the following laws:
- prohibiting loans to managing
officers of banks; loans to stockholders
! to be approved by directors.
No person to be elected director I'M
less he owns 5 per cent of the stock.
This is to prevent one-man banks.
No bank to be allowed to deposit its
reserve in a bank owned or partly
owned by the same party or parties
This is to break up the Chain bank
system.
Bank officers must renew their bonds
each year.
Bank directors required to meet in
January. April, July and October to
thoroughly inspect the condition of the
bank.
Banks required to keep on hand only
per cent of deposits in cash, provided
within easy access.
Repeal the law requiring that the re-
ceiver of a bank be appointed from the
county where the bank is located.
Relating to the guaranty of bank de-
posits, Mr.. Royce says:
1.-The law should be such as to per-
nit banks to voluntarily contribute to
a guarantee fund but having once ac-
cepted the provision of the law no bank
should be permitted to withdraw. The
fund should be placed in the hands of
the state treasurer and disbursed by
the bank commissioner. The depositors
should be paid as soon after the bank
closes as their balances can be deter
mined or deposits should bear the legal
rate of interest from the day the bank
closes, and be paid out of the guar
antee fund after the assets of the failed
bank have all been exhausted. Either
provision should satisfy the depositors
and the bankers should be permitted
to have the one which best suits them.
The law should contain a provision
that if the fund should become reduced
be REIN ursed from the proceeds of the
closed bank or by an assessment upon
the remaining banks so that the fund
would at all times be kept intact"
The report shows that there are now
1853 states banks in Kansas; also I
private banks and 4 trust companies.
During the past two years, lac new
banks have been started, with a capital
of 81, 100000. Eight private banks have
become state banks and eleven states
and one private bank have national
lied Five small banks have failed
during the two years.

examination of all the railroad prop
erty in the state and decided that it Is
worth 356 millions of dollars. 1t cost
the tax commission about $4,000 to
States census experts also made a val
uation, and arrived at about the same
result as the. tax commission. But
nevertheless the Republican legisla-
ture is pledged to make a big appro-
priation to ascertain the physical val
ue of railroads.
Senator Longs Comments.
The object of making a physical
valuation of railroad property is
chiefly to get at a theoretical basis for
making rates The theory is that
railroad company should be permitted
to earn a certain percentage on the
capital actually invested in its lines.
The physical valuation is for the
purpose of squeezing out the water
from the stock value of the company.
Senator Chester I. Long, among
others. does not think that this theory
of rate making will work. When in
Topeka yesterday he said:
What are the reformers going to
do at the coming session of the leg
plans all mapped out. They will no
doubt enact some important railroad
legislation. They will have made
physical valuation of railroads, and
will then base freight rates on the
valuation. The Santa Fe has a very
valuable line between Topeka and
Wichita, and it will be allowed to
charge a high rate because it must
earn lot to pay interest on its big
investment The poor lines can charge
low rates. Then Wichita will begin
mandamus proceedings against the
Santa Fe to compel it to reduce it's
rates. This reform business should be
carried out to the limit
