MORMONS WANT DUTY
ON WHEAT REMOVED

MoTmOn rancheTs in the COlOnia Dub
I'm district are making an effort to have
the 10 percent duty on wheat from
Mexico set aside in order that they
may bring out $4,000 worth of wheat
grown in the Dublin district to be sold
in Ell Paso.
The wheat has been grown BY the
farmers in the Mormon settlement, but
as there is no r.arket for it in Mexico
they are anxious to bring it to Ell Paso
to sell to the local mills.
The free wheat clause in the new tariff
does not apply to Mexico. and the Nor
mons have been advised by collector 4.
L. Cobb to write to United States sena-
tor Root to have a e-ecial provision
made allowing the wheat to enter the
country free.
