DECLARES DEsPoTIsM CAUSE
OF MExIco's DIscoNTENT

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 3.-[Editor
Herald: I feel that it would be wrong
toilet the letter printed In your valuable
paper coming from one who signs him
self DR.. d. Trevino go unchallenged,
and while / do not wish to enter the
controversy, think attention should be
called to some glaring incorrect state
ments and deductions contained there
in. In the first place, there is no more
reason for unrest on account OF capttal
in Mexico than in the United States;
the fact is the unrest in Mexico Is
caused by the despotism of the govern
ment. This cannot but produce unrest
when the citizens OF Mexico observe the
liberty enjoyed by their adjoining
neighbor, the United States. The arti-
cles appearing in the American Maya
zine instead of ever being proved false
in foundation and fact" the foundation
and fact can be testified to by honest
people, and l am acquainted with such
people who can testify TO the founda-
ton and fact The advice to go to
Mexico and right the grievances with
the ballot seems farcical. They might
go to Mexico, but not many ballots
come from dungeons or the bitches.
Finally, 1t is a direct slander on our
government to say that 'if Mexico
wanted him, De Lara would have been
sent over the line a long time ago."
thereby charging our government with
abject subserviency to Mexico.

condescending tribute to despised art

YELLOW JOURNALISM

WI HAT is yellow journalism" We
w have had to wait for a long
w time for a description that
would really fit. Here is one at last.
It was supplied by Judge William j.
Gaynor, the successful candidate for
mayor of New York. He said yellow
journalism was marked by Ignorance,
superhciality, recklessness and ire
sistible propensities to falsify."
The journalist whose work for the
nation and for the world is worth
while" should be we'll informed, philo-
sophical, careful and accurate. This
is a fallible world, and it is not possl-
BILE to be always absolutely accurate,
but 1t is possible to ascertain the facts
in any case within a reasonable de-
gree of absolute accuracy. In other
words, AS NEARLY ALL NEWSPA-
PER STATEMENTS ARE FOUNDED
ON THE TESTIMONY OF WIT
NESSES, it should always be possible
to be as accurate as the witnesses.
Newspapers which employ accurate re-
porters instead of gentlemen with in
Ventive genius will always be as relia-
Bile as their sources of information.
II at any time (human nature being
fallible) there should be a lapse
from absolute accuracy the error will
be traceable to the witness on the
stand, and not to the reporter who pre-
pared the testimony for publication.
YELLOW REPORTERS THINK
THEY HAVE TO SPICE AND FLA
VOR AND COOK TESTIMONY IN
ORDER TO MAKE 1T PALATABLE,
or readable" and that is what is the
matter with them and with the "yel-
low" school Of journalism.

TARIFF JUGGLERY

MUCH of the new tariff is sheer
lEH jugglery: an adroit manipula-
AIA tion of facts and figures designed
to produce popular impression unwar-
ranted by actualities. There is no
more easily woven form of fiction than
figuring, and when the wits Of experts
are set to work to build up an impress
sion upon an uncorroborative unreality
which is manipulated in order TO look
like a corroborative reality, the feat
can be compared only TO the stage per-
formance Of a bespangled family group
Of jugglers, some engaged in a studied
attempt to divert the attention of the
audience, while others prepare the IL
lusion which is TO trick the senses Of
the onlookers.
AS an instance of the "hanky-panky"
which has been practiced on the public
by the tariff artists" take the duties
on cotton cloth.
While to the inexpert or causal eye
they may appear to be the same, they
have in fact been increased from as
small a figure as five per cent on the
finest cloth to 100 per cent and more
for the poorer grades. This tremendous
increase on the cheaper qualities is
characteristic Of tariff jugglery.
We have heard a great deal about
the duties on hosiery.
The conferees modified the advances
passed by the house, and the nation
was carefully Informed there had been
a modification. But how had this
modification" been accomplished?
By leaving increases of duty on the
lower priced hosiery!
Here again the hanl5y-panky tariff
artists thought the smallness Of the fig
ures when quoted on single instances
might conceal the Importance of the
result when applied to nations goods.
In the act as it finally passed, ho-
siery valued at wholesale at not more
than 81 per dozen pairs was taxed az
IS PER CENT AID VALOREM as
against 67 per cent under the Dingley
tariff. Hosiery valued at 81 to $3.50
was taxed II per cent as against a
Dingley rate Of 5S per cent Hosiery
valued at from $3.50 to $500 per dozen
was taxed at 62 per cent as against
only 81 per cent under the Dingley law
The cheaper grades, in popular de-
mand, were hanky-pankied by the
tariff jugglers, and out Of the poor
mans pocket-here a little and there
q little - many a NICKEL makes Il
muckle-comes an actual increase in
the revenues derived from taxation Of
a necessary article Of clothing.
But this grotescue style of revision
does not affect purchasers Of higher
priced grades of hosiery. Oh, no! An
increase in the higher priced grades
would be NOTICED. There would be
a hullabaloo about it. Some of the
Weather contributors to the Repubi-
can campaign fund might be offended
The poor devils, who cannot con-
tribute to the campaign fund, and who
with difficulty keep their dinner pals
moderately illed-why TAX THEM.
They won't mind. They don't know any
better. 1t will only mean to them a
little advance in the price of hosiery
and perhaps they will never notice it,
If times grow harder again, they
may go without hosiery. Who knows?
The tariff jugglers are not worrying
over that Their business is to JUG
GLE. not to worry.
THEY LET THE OTHER FELLOW
DO THE WORRYING.

ADVICE TO WOMEN
\ Message From Il Famous Beauty
Specialist TO Women Lacking in
Energy and vitality.

Thousands of women Vainly at
tempt to improve their compilations
and to remove blackheads, crows feet
and other blemishes, through the use
of cosmetics. This treatment fails be-
cause the trouble lies far deeper thar
the skin. They are suffering from im-
pure and impoverished blood. This
condition is in many cases due to a
catarrhal condition of the whole sys-
TEN which finds its expression in sal
low, muddy complexion, dark-eircled
eyes, general weakness of the system,
and perhaps most plainly in the weep
ing of mucous membranes that Is
commonly called catarrh.
In fact this whole tendency is, prop
erly speaking, Catarrh. Danish this
catarrh, and the complexion will clear
as if by magic, yes will brighten,
faces become rosy and shoulders erect.
Perfect beauty goes only with perfect
health. and perfect health for women
can only be obtained through one GER
tain treatment-that which will cure
catarrh.
Nine. Swift, New York, the famous
beauty specialist known throughout
the world and an accepted authority
on all relating thereto. states that the
one positive and permanent relief for
catarrh Is Rexall Mucu-Tone. Here
is her letter:
II can strongly endorse the claims
made for Rexall Mucu-Tone az a cure
for systemic catarrh. It's tonic eff
fects are remarkable. 1t builds up
the strength and restores vitality. If
women who are tired and run down,
lacking in energy and vitality, Will use
Rexall Mucu-Tone, they will praise
as | do it's strengthening and healing
qualities"
Rexall Mucu-Tone works through
the blood, acting thus upon the mu-
cous cells-the congestion and infam-
OF which causes local catarrh.
This remedy causes poison to be ex-
from the system. and the blood
is purified and revitalized. Thus the
natural functions of the mucous cells
are restored, and the membranes are
cleansed and made strong. We know
Rexall Mucu-Tone does relieve
We positively guarantee to

remedy in every ease where the user
