Although there is no law in
Mexico calling for export duty,
Mr. Warren was compelled to
pay it at the point Of the bayo-

his cattle. He testifies also to
losing 1000 calves which were

he was not allowed to repair.

Let US remind you, brother, that
the REGISTER came very near do
ing in 1904 the very thing you are
uniustly accusing the "'average

the REGISTER opposed Mr.. Folks

he was nominated, did not the

but d~utifully bowed to the decision
of the party officially rendered.

there are others. Its date was Au-

authority than either has set its
seal of approval upon all of them,
and they are nv choice from now
on. My "cheek" may be in evil
