The South is the place, and my adj

you do, you'll die. Your clothing must
be lighter and therefore less expensive.
You won't have to buy fuel to speak
Of, and you can allow your horses and
cattle to Craze out of doors the year

Believe me, the South is the poor

PRESIDENT DIAz

AMERICAN FINANCIERS WANT
LIMANTOUR PRESIDENT.
Interests in Mexico Trying to
Force Resignation of Diaz.

NashingtOn.-Great American imam
claI interests have perfected plans and
are prepared to issue an ultinatuCn to
the DiaZ government in Mex 60 looking
to the retirement of President Diaz and
the establishment of Yves Jose Imam
tour, now minister OF finance, at the
head of the government.
Such is the firm belief in Latin Amer
ic@n diplomatic quarters in Washington.
1t is generally believed that negOtia-
tions are afoot looking to the substitu-
ton of the strong and vigorous Imam
tour for the aged and decrepit Diaz as
head of the Mexican state and that with
an American army on the border of
Mexico ready to invade whenever con-
dltiOns become too turbulent, the
change will be forced in an orderly
fashion.
Despite all the efforts to create the
impression that possibility of foreign
Intervention and intrigue had inspired
the movement of troops to the Mexican
border, the belief is stronger than ever
that business interests in this country,
menaced by the rising revolutionary
tide, have convinced the administration
that the military movement was neces

CORPORATION TAX
IS CONSTITUTIONAL
SUPREME COURT is UNANIMOUS IN
IN ITS DECISION.
Is Viewed AS Excise Tax-Income of
Approximately $25,oCO,OoO
Is Assured.

Wa-hington.-ln an unanimous Opin-
ion, the supreme court of the United
States Monday held that the corporation
tax provisions of the Payne-Aldrich tar
iii act We're constitutional.
The opinion was announced by Justice
Day. 1t was an elaborate treatment OF
the subject, containing approximately
1O,O0O words.
The Justice first determined that the
tax WAS Just what it claimed to be in
the act, namely, an excise tax on the
doing OF Il corporate busine :, and not d
direct tax on the ownership of prop
erty. With that point decided, the JUS
tlce took up, at more length, the various
objections urged against the tax as an
excise. Finally, he interpreted the law
SO rs to apply to real estate com
panies and the so-called public service
corporations. but not to real estate
trusts
Practically all of the more than $27,-
600, 900 assessed for the fiscal year ended
June so, 1910, on corporations in the
United States has been paid into the
treasury. The exact amount received to
February /, 1911, the latest date for
which precise figures are available, was
$27,1O8,1S 1919. The amount assessed last
year was 27,13O,9O4 Added to this
We're penalties amounting to about
81 5000 for failure to pay the tax when
due.
What the tax will mOun to this year
the commissioners of internal revenue,
who has charge of the collection, is
not yet able to determine, even approx
imate!y. All reports from corporations
were due March /, and it is believed
practically all of them have been re-
ceived. But work has just been begun
OF figuring out the assessments which III
the few days since this task has begun
has totaied only about $1,3Oo,0OO, a
small fractional part of the whole.

JAPAN GETS INTO
MEXICAN GAME
9ENIES 1T is SEEKING POSSES
SION OF MAGDALENA BAY.
England Advised the United S0teA
British Railroad interests Are
Pleased With Troops.

Washington. = Japan doomed up
background OF the international COM
plications with reference TO the
emergency relations OF the govern
ment to its sreat and powerful neigh
Dor. Mexico.
1t was generally rumorcd that Japan
had entered upon special commercial
relations affecting that particular
part of Mexico where the president
expected the new republic of Mexico
to be formed by the secession of the
insurrectOs in Northwestern Mexico
and Lower California.
The Japanese ambassador. Baron
Uchida, vaulted Unexpectedly into the
arena by denying specifically what
has not been charged officially, that
Japan has sought, or is seeking to az
quiTe Magdalena Bay.
1t has been ascertained. however,
that Mexico is fostering a new and
great Japanese commercial enterprise
of a line of steamships to operate FROM
Peru 10 ports in Northern Mexico.
This fact has attracted the specific
attention of this government because
of the indisputabIe and Necessary con-
neCtiOn it would have as between
Japanese interests and the proposed
new republic which the insurrectOs
propose to form in Lower California
and North Mexico, and which, as ad-
mitted by President Taft, it is the
intention of this government to pre-
vent with its whole naval and military
force.
1t was not surprising, therefore. to
find that the Japanese ambassador
had projected his nations affairs into
the Mexican trouble by discussing the
moot question whether Japan had
ever offered to negotiate with Mexico
for the Magdalena Bay, The am
bassador, of course, denied the allega-
ton and proceeded to talk of the
large commercial interests which
Japan has with Mexico.
The news came direct to the war
department today that Great Britain's
railroad interests. SO far as concerns
their representatives in New York,
which is the most important center OF
interest, ARE satisfied with the present
arrangements"
This indicates u~nerringly, notwith-
standing ineffective deniaIs, that
formally, at least, Great Britain did
ascertain what the United States pro
posed TO do in case of the inability of
President Diaz to control the stu
alton in his dOminions.

FOOTBALL is COSTLY SPORT
Harvard Expenditures Were $4,000.
Yale Spent $40 900.

Cambridge, Mass.-A comparison OF
the cost of athletics at Yale and Har-
ward shows that Yale spends about a
third more every year than Harvard on
each of its big athletic teams. 1t cost
the Cambridge University $127,945 to
run athletics last year, or about $425 a
day for the ten months through which
the college season lasts. The football
expenditures were approximately $4,000
an average of about $1,000 a man to
the squad of thirty-one players. Track
athletics cost 50 1000; baseball, S11 600,
and rowing. S15,500.
At Yale the appropriation for football
was $4,000. 1t meant that for every
man who got into a championship
game, as the contests with Harvard and
Princeton are called, $500 was expend-
ed. On baseball Yale put out a total of
So. 900. while track athletics cost 3d.

FRANK JAMES ESTATE SOLD
Many Articles With Histories Put
Under Hammer.

Fletcher, Okla.-A mule team is all
that remains of the farm property of
Frank James, brother of outlaw Jesse
James. The property at the James
farm near here was sold at auction,
and Frank James and wife have gone
back to live at the old homestead in
Missouri.
The mule steam, which had been
family property for fourteen years, was
offered for sale, but although the bid
ders, mostly curiosity hunters, named
figures way above the market value,
James would not let it go. He bid in
the team at $3.50.
A saddle, ridden by James in the old
days of %outlawry, sold for $50. Some
hogs sold for $85 a head. Fully 1900
people, of whom many were curio hunt
ers from other states, attended the sale
in autos, on horseback and in carriages.
