 These and all figures connect ed with the proposed tax will doubtless be we'll thrashed out ir the forthcoming debate. In the meantime it is better that the cs..

It is to be remembered also that the decrease in customs receipts may not prove as large as is anticipat- ed. Many of the present duties prohibit importation altogether, and the reduction in their ease will increase rather than decrease the revenues. .--EX.

Says Intervention Would be
Risky Move For United
States.
SERIOUS PROBLEMS.
Former Governor Ridicules Sugges'
tion That Lind Will be Treated Dis
courteously.

New York, Aug. 9.-1ntervention
in any form would be fraught with
serious consequences to American in
terests and would serve only to unite
all Mexican fections in resentment to
ward the would-be considered and un-
warranted affront to the dignity and
honor of their country, according to
Francisco Leon de la Barra. who has
arrived here on his way to France,
where he is to represent the Huerta
government.
Senor de la Barra, who was provis-
ional president of Mexico after the
fall of Diaz and who has had much
experience in diplomatic posts Of one
kind or another, including several
years, residence in the United States,
left no doubt in the minds of those
who talked with him that President
Wilson's determination not to recog-
nize Huerta is believed by him to be
the only obstacle in the way of peace
and constitutional government in
Mexico. He declared that internad
disputes ought not to obscure the
fact that throughout Mexico there is
a fervor of national patriotism that
can alwas be relied upon in the vent
of trouble from the outside.
As for the mission of John. Lind,
he belittled the suggestion that the
agent of the President of the United
States would be treated with anything
but courtesy. He believed he would.
be we'll received, but he declined to
discuss the matter further, pleading
that this turn to affairs had been CIV
en- since he left Mexico. He asserted
that any American citizen is safe in
any part of the country controlled by
he government at this time"
Mexico has two serious problems
Just now," said the ambassador. Zone
IS internal and the other external. Sc
Tar as the former is concerned, | be-
lieve conditions are improving. The
governments military program is in
fair way to be carried out. Rail
road communication is firmly estab-
l:shed throughout the country and
that is an indication of stability"
