MEXICAN MINE TAX IS MENACE

strong part" this Ell Paso statistician
has the following to say:
There are now about $4,000 entered
mining claims in Mexico. These gave
the government Of Mexico under the
old federal law some 1900. 900 pesos net
revenue per annum-
Ninety Percent Would Revert.
"The new tax Of L pesos per per-
tenencia means that 90 percent Of the
mining claims in Mexico those held for
speculative purposes. will revert to the
government Of Mexico because OF their
release by holders who cannot afford
to pay the prohibiuve tax This viii
reduce the number of entered claims
to $1,000 10 percent of the present
number. A gross annual income of only
about $500 pesos will then accure to
the government from these $4,000
claims. against an old gross under the
Diaz regime Of 2.5S0.00O pesos, with
the cost of the administration then
consuming only about $4,000 pesos.
THE gross income from the present
decree. due to the abandonment OF 80
the previous cost OF administration by
$4,000 pesos Csubtracting $4,000 pesos
from $4,000 pesos).
VIII Cripple Treasury.
THE effect of this condition viii be
not only to cripple the goTsE-nmeR1tt
prospecting work in the country which
annually amounts in labor alone to
nearly 5,5O0,O0G pesos.
Under conditions Of reconstruction,
scarcity OF work for laborers and the
universal poverty OF the masses. il
seems that the burden of taxation
ought to be lower. instead of raised.
VIII Cause Trouble.
THE result of a study of these fig
ures shows that the government of
Mexico viii get less income, and that
labor in Mexico will get practically
nothing at all And you cannot keep

The taxes on metals is in many
cases in excess Of the profits under
which mines are operated. and there

The Record.

The above lyrical outburst is writ
ten, not in behalf of Yale, but rather
in behalf of the Record.
In the last dozen years, Princeton
had had many better football teams
than Yale has known.
But in the last dozen years Prince
ton has beaten Yale but once. That
event took place in 1911, and even
that one Tiger victory was more of an
individual triumph for Sammy White
than it was for Princeton.
Princeton undoubtedly should have
beaten Yale in 1910, in 1912, in 1914
and in 1915.
Yet Yale won three Of these games
and tied up the other.
Taking no credit from Yale, it has
so happened that Yale has been at
her best against Princeton and Prince
ton at her lowest ebb against Yale.
Last fall no one would have recog-
nized the Princeton team that faced
Yale as the same machine that gave
Harvard's fine eleven an even fight the
Saturday before.
What happened was merely another
chapter in an old book.

work better than before the football

Roosevelt's characterization of reports
that he might seek the republican,
nomination for president in 1920 as a
pipe dream" contained in a de-
spatch from Oyster Bay caused as
much interest in republican circles
as any piece of political news yes
terday.
The effect of Mr.. Roosevelts stats
ment may be judged when 1t liz
known that it was followed almost
Immediately by a report that a COM
bination of "Old Guard republicans
who have been connected with ma
tional headquarters already had ~be-
gun to get together to forestall such
a contingency, just as they did after
the defeat of President Taft in 1919.
One-time progressives who have
been connected with republican head
quarters were openly jubilant over
the Roosevelt boom.
They wouldn't take our man in
1912" said one. "They wouldn't take
him this year. See what happened.
Tt will be the same thing If they
don't in 1920, and maybe those OPP
posed to him won't have any choice
in the matter"
George w. Perkins was at his desk
at republican headquarters for o.
short time during the day. He de-,
clined to discuss the result of the

Seven mistakes are given as the

issue of the New York Progressive, OF
which Willard j. Bloomer is editor.
These, the Progressive states, were the
failure of the republicans to nonin-

like John M. Parker or Hiram john
son for vice president, the failure to
choose q Give" national chairman.
the failure to select wise and effi-
cient members of the campaign COM
mittee from the "OId Guard, the
mistake of not recognizing the inn
portance of the progressive vote In
the west, the failure Of Mr.. Hughes
to recognize the progressives in Cal
tfornia and the erroneous assump-
ton that the farmer vote would be
republican as usual.
Mr.. Roosevelt is suggested as pos
sibility for 1920. MANY persons will

Evidently the impression of the
