MEXICO RAISES
STAMP TAXES
New Tax Is Heaviest Ever
Decreed in the History
of the Republic.

Mexico City. Mex, April 2s.-Stamp
taxes throughout the entire republic
will be increased LOG percent on May /.
those covering documents or contracts
in which foreign money is expressed
will carry a special issue of stamps and
pay ten times the old quota.
The new tax was announced in a de-
cree issued by Gen. C%arranza last night
1t will be temporary, as it only is to be
in force during the months OF May and
June, for the present year. This decree
will supplement that of March 81 last,
which abolished all stamp taxes of less
than five cents. The tax is the heaviest
ever imposed in the history of Mexico.
With the decree. a circular was is
sued to all banking institutions of more
than 100000 Mexican gold capital, to
return within IS hours an exact esti-
mate of dollars deposited with them.
The circular warns bankers that il
their statements are not in the treasury
department by April so. they will be
liable to severe punishment.

Villa May Be Regarded as
National Hero Because of
American Pursuit.

Washington. D. c., April 2S.-Condi-
tons in Mexico City were reported to-
day to the state department from conf
Dental sources as bad from every
point OF view and that description
was said to include the capital and the
immediate surrounding territory.
Food supplies were reported INSULT
cient and the railroads are unable al
present to relieve that condition.
The pursuit Of villa by American
troops, the advices said. bids fair to
make him a hero Of national ropor
lions and has had a natural effect upon
the Carranza government. The fiuan-
cial situation was given as poor.

work, we are p~recipitated into this
most disquieting international problem.
We are embarrassed with the Ameri-
can troops upon our soil, yet at the
same time we are patient.
THE question, then, that alone will
be considered at the conference be-
tween the military authorities is not
whether Mexico establishes a financial
system conformable TO the American
capitalists idea Of what finance should
be; not an Interference with our econ
OmIc problems Of crops ana employ
ment; not a reformation of natures that
are disposed to accept brides and IA
vors rather than give service, but the
larger question Of MeXico's ability to
clear Mexico Of its bandits and restore
peace and order.
Mexico Can Care for Herself.
We can do this and we Will do H..
The presuming critic who holds that
we have not talent, power nor genius
within our own ranks does not know
the history of Mexico, streaked as IT,
has been with oppression and misery
among the people. Mexico has need
Of Mexico for her own growing mill
lions. They are not a people VINO will
willingly be removed from the face OF
the earth. We love our soil and u
country.
And one more thought: Nothing
can be rarer in its absurdity h the
theory that because the American
troops are withdrawn that Mexico
would misinterpret the withdrawal and
it as an act Of weakness. On
the contrary we would esteem 1t an
act Of the finest friendship and Mexico
from the Rio Grande to the lsthmus
Of Tehuantepec would say; The
Americans are our friends. They did
not wish to take our country from

Gen. Alvaro Obregon. minister of war
in the de facto cabinet, to come at once

tween himself and Gen. Hugh L. Scott,
chief Of staff Of the United States army
This message was carried by consul
Ives G. Lelevier to Gen. T. f. Davis,
commanding the Sixth infantry brigade
in this city, with the request that Gen.
Davis should issue the necessary per-
mission for Gen. Gales to travel
through the United StateA

such a permit unless authorized to do
so by the state or war departments OF

Gen. Gales. just prior to the receipt
OF the telegram from Oregon, had pre-
pared a telegram addressed to the Mex
lean war minister inviting him to come
to Douglas and Aqua Prieta to hold the
conference, expressing the opinion that
more harmony exists between these two
towns than betwcen Ell PasO and Jua-
rez, which would insure the minimum
of outside influence being brought to
bear upon the cOnferees. However, the
message was not sent. Gen Gales in
tends, should the situation indicate that
the FL PasO session will not be entirely
harmonious, to extend the invitation
personally to the cOnferees.

the idea Of eNterminating the NaQui In

forces are campaigning in the southern

the Yaqui river valley forces, that every
HaQui child captured by his force shall
