The Sad Cornoration Tax.

Secretary OF State Junkin is asking
the governor to recommend to the leg
islature the amending OF the law inn
posing an annual corporation tax on
all Nebraska corporations so that the
tax shall be computed on the author
lied capital stock instead Of upon the
capital stock actually issued. II there
is any good reason for such a change
except that It would produce more rev.
enue and make the collections through
the secretary of states ONCE look big
ger II is not apparent on the surface.
The idea back Of this annual cor
poration tax or fee is that it should be
graduated according to the size and
business OF the corporation. A cor
pOration that is authorized to Issue
100000 of stock and only issues
100000 enjoys no greater privilege
from the state than the corporation
authorized 60 issue only 100000 OF
stock with the full amount outstand-
ing.
The first year this law went into
effect Secretary Junkin undertook to
collect on the basis OF authorized
stock, and did so collect It, with the
result that the legislature will be
called on az the coming session to re-
fund the overcharge, the collection OF
which subsequent reading OF the law
and threatened test suits compelled
the secretary 20 admit to be based on
a mistaken ruling

The Mexican Situation.

The Mexican Instruction, appar-
emily. is tagging, II not collapsed, for
want Of a capable leader and a cause
definite enough to inspire a coherent
following. Men without a real griev-
ance are not likely long to fight be-
hind one with no higher motive than
personal ambition. DR.. Madero too
early was recognized as a mere aspir-
ant for ONCE, a rival OF Diaz, and,
though able to inhame the passions
of his party for a time, 1t appears he
has utterly failed to sustain their
ardor. Had some national figure Of
formidable personality and power
come forward at the right moment, he
might have made very serious trouble
for the Mexican republic, but It looks
now as II the government had sue
ceeded in maintaining its authority
But though the future Of Mexico is
probably not greatly menaced by
present conditions, yet it's progress
abroad will be retarded and to this
extent the government and President
Diaz have sustained a setback, for the
chief executive was exerting all his
efforts toward promoting friendly
commercial relations with other ma
tions and the development Of Mexican
resources by the aid of foreign capt
tai. It cannot be doubted that fo-
eign capital will hesitate to go into
Mexico for some time. Capital is very
sensitive, and what might not in the
least embarrass the political status or
standing of the government might
very potently affect its influence with
outside investors.
This is particularly unfortunate for
Mexico, too, just at this time when
many industries afoot require financial
aid and are sure to suffer If they fail
to get It. Much American money has
gone into Mexican enterprises and
much more is desired and needed, but
1t is not likely to be very free for the
present and Just for how long is some
thing that cannot quite be determines
now. Assuming that the present
trouble has passed it's crisis, fear will
linger that another similar outbreak
may occur. Friends of Mexico in the
United States can wish their southern
neighbor nothing better than a stable
government, so essential to growth
and prosperity.

GRAFT IN WAR sCAREs :
An IntimatiOn from President of CO.
lumbar University.

An IntimatiOn from President of Co
lumbar University.
Nicholas Murray Butler in Leslie's.
My impression is that somebody makes
something by reason Of the huge expendi-
lures in preparation for war. Have you
ever noticed that about the time that the
appropriations for military purposes are
under consideration In the congress, in the
House Of Commons, in the Chamber Of
Deputies OF In the Reichstag, or just before
such q time, hostilities are always on the
point Of breaking out in two or three parts
Of the world at once? Just at these times
war prophets begin to see visions and
dream dreams, and the poor, gullible peo-
pie rush off TO their cyclone cellars and
shout timorously to their representatives
to vote at once and as much as possible in
order that great ships and guns and forts
may be built to protect them from their
fears. We have done Of late some helpful
and Illuminating legislative inquiry in this
country. II might be worth while 60 have
the same sort Of ability that has so bril-
liantly exposed to our repealed and aston
ished gaze other forms of political chic
anery and graft make some measurement
of the sincerity and disinterestedness Of the
lively type Of patriotism which sccompan-
les these military and naval debates the
world over.

First Test of Parcels Post.

The postmaster generals promise
to recommend to congress a limited
parcels post service on rural mail
routes will be widely applauded and
1t is to be hoped congress win see its
way clear to give it trial. The gov
eminent has the facilities for main
tanning this service and 1t ought to
make use of them. 1t seems to be the
desire Of Postmaster General Hitch
cock to do this and he should be given
full support by congress. There is a
very definite feeling over this country
that parcels post can not only be made
to pay, but will be a great convenience
and saving to the people and we
should no longer defer to the wishes
of special interests in the matter.
Representative Sulzer of New York
has had bill pending in congress
contemplating much of what the post
master general proposes and 1t or
some other ought to be passed. He
proposes to raise the limit of weight
for general merchandise from four to
eleven pounds and to make the post
age rate what it is now on fourth
class matter, cent for every two
ounces, or cents a pound. These
rates apply to international parcels
post; then why should they not apply
to domestic service? Mr.. Hitcheoek's
proposal is identical with that of the
Sulzer bill, so far as the maximum
weight goes, though possibly differing
in other respects. But it will make no
difference who fathers the bill, just so
it is properly framed and pat through.
II rural parcels post could be sue
cessfully maintained, it would require
more ingenious argument than has
yet been offered to block the demand
for a general parcels post service. And
with the rural service once estab-
llshed, it would probably be but a
trifing matter to make the law gem
eral in its scope. The sixty-hrst con-
gress will have its hands full at this
its closing, session, but # could not
cap it's climax with a more popular
law than such measure would surely
prove to be.

RETALIATION IN MEXICO.
Sources of PrOvOcation Full Of
Peril.
Minneapolis Journal.

Minneapolis Journal
Chickens come home to roost. True one
wrong does not Justify another wrong, but
one wrong is likely to provoke another
wrong. A Mexican, or a man of Mexican
origin, was burned at the stake in Texas
Sequentially a mob in the City of Mexico
assaults AmeGcans, insults the American
flag.
The outrage in the Mexican capital is
not excused, but we can diagnose its pro-
vocative cause. Our ambassador and gov
eminent will do we'll to insist upon apology
and punishment for the offenders, or upon
what constitutes reparation for the particu-
lar case. But the outrage upon justice in
Texas is Just as barbarous and inexcusable
and it yields no justification for considering
ourselves or our civilization superior.
H. moreover, the Mexican government
should answer that the affair complained
of lies within the Jurisdiction Of a state
over which the government of Mexico has
no coercive power, the answer would be
identical with that furnished Italy by our
own secretary of state when some Italian
subjects were murdered in Louisiana The
Mexican government is not likely to enter
such a plea of evasion, but It might and

morals, although not in fact, be estopped

whether such aliens be Mexicans japanese
or Italians.
Our plea of evasion in the Louisiana af-
fair was not only internationally immoral,
but dangerous. II Texas will not punish
the perpetrators of the outrage within its
borders Washington should have some way
Of compelling 1t to do so. An offense
against the citizens Of a friendly foreign
state should be brought within the iurisdic-
ton Of the federal courts.

The Amendment Lost

Although incomplete, the returns
show that the constitutional amend.
ment submitted for ratification by the
voters OF Nebraska at the last election
has failed TO carry, Notwithstanding
the device by which It was credited
with all the straight ticket votes for
the parties that had endorsed it at the
primary. The total vote in the state
will aggregate something over 24O,-
600, but the Affirmative vote for the
amendment will fall short Of 100000,
and therefore short Of the necessary
majority required by the terms of the
constitution. OF the votes counted for
and against the amendment the
Affirmative will have a margin Of from
$4,000 to 10000, but apparently
from 10000 to 10000 voters who par
ticipated in the election declined to
record themselves either way on the
amendment.
From The Bees point OF view no
harm is done by the failure Of this
amendment to carry. As it was so
peculiarly framed, it was a bungling
job Of phraseology. Had it been
drafted in simple language, clearly ex-
empting from Acknowledgement all
foreign-born citizens who had already
acquired the right to vote in Nebraska,
it would probably have carried with
out opposition.
