Drop The Strike Gases

The attorney general of Colorado is showing wisdom

Nearly all the cases those of men who commit

in the strike zone bat whose actual connection Win
those disorders would have been difficult to prove.
In any event. it would appear from the history OF tne
strike that one side was about as much to blame the
other and that both ides committed acts IN the neat

extent to which Colorado has suffered from the eI1ect

High Finance In Chihuahua

Gen Ca1ranza has troublesome problem IN Chihua-
hua One may safely assume the same problem exists
throughout northern Mexico generally. First he de
creed that the currency of his government shall have
value of gold, and shall be accepted at the
basis by the merchants despite the fact that at the
border the currency quoted at only about three cents
As result the merchants closed their establish
rents declaring they running into bankruptcy by
attempting to do business that basis, especially since
the government has also placed maximum price limits
in uanv commodities. At that stage the burden was
on the shoulders of the merchants
Now Gen Car1anza has abruptly taken another turn,
because of the reonsances of the merchants, and has
shifted the load the shoulders Of the consumers by
removing the maximum price restrictions so that the
merchants may charge enough more for their goods to
make I'D the difference in exchange rates
Very shortly, without doubt, the consumers will
COMPLAIN as they have complained before that prices
are unfair and maximum price list will again be
established at which the merchants may be expected
again 10 protest in connection with the exchange rate
Only one possible benefit may be foreseen from this
game of emergency finance and that is that the de faco
government may gain time in which to pile up gold
and silver reserve with which to validate the currency
and give it the value which it at present lacks.
