THE ELEVENTH COMMANDMENT.


The covenant as a whole is neces-
sary to- prevent every power from act
ing as Austria acted in 1914 and Italy
is acting now, once it is adopted, the
business of issuing ultimate to the
world will be finished. 1t is high
time that it was. A war that began
by Austria refusing to negotiate with
Serbia, ends with Italy refusing to
negotiate with the state of which Ser
bia is part. 1t is a dramatic coinci-
dence, and a final proof of the neces-
sity of putting the whole force of the
world behind the commandment: You
shall discuss.
But having put its whole forces be-
hind that. it should not stultify the
main value of the pledge by amend
ing 1t, as Article X does amend it, so
that it reads: You shall discuss, ex-
cept that you shall not discuss bound
aries as they were laid down before
April or May, 1915" Article Y should
be eliminated. Article NJ, which says
that ANY war or threat of war,
whether Immediately affecting any OF
the high contracting parties or not. is
hereby declared a matter of concern
to the league fully protects every
nation against aggression, while Arti-
cles XIII and XIV supply the ma
chinery for adjustment.

FAITH IN BUSINESS.

When any proposition made by
persons whose good faith is estab-
lished is we'll advertised, it is not at
all difficult to secure satisfactory
support from judicious people. Down
in Dona Ana county a man of good
reputation, a successful stockman. a
large land owner, several times chosen
county treasurer. namely, w. w. Cox,
secured opinions from biologists and
concluded to try for OIL in the Tula-
rosa basin.
Leasing additional land from the
state, he planned a company with
capitalization of 100000, putting his
own funds in for about a tenth of the
amount,
Then he proceeded by excellent ad-
vertising in the Albuquerque Morning
Journal and other newspapers to eX-
plain the plan and prospects. 1t was
announced that any sum invested was
hazard; that no salaries would be
paid to officers, no stock given to
promoters, and every cent would go
into development work; and that he
would be winner or loser exactly on
the same percentage as other in
vestors.
While many persons have recently
made ventures recklessly in oil stock
without investigation, the participants
IN the Tularosa proposition very
quickly commanded the support OF
men who think and look before they
leap. Probably not a single business
man in Dona Ana county failed to
take a chance, while many persons

elsewhere RENTED funds. Last week
the entire issue of stock was sold

other that the company received fo1
stock. The residents and landowner
interested in oil prospecting in tn,
Tularosa basin have subscribed $3.50
to improve a roadway to the selected
locality.
All this interest and quick success
at time when dozens of projects

funds, was due to plain, truthful ad
vertising, and confidence in the per

An Inside Bath

Physicians the world over recon"
mend the inside bath, claiming this is
Of vastly more Importance than out

pores do not absorb impurities into
the blood, causing i'll health, while the
pores in the ten yards of bowels do.
Men and women are urged to drink
each morning, before breakfast a
glass of hot water with teaspoonful
of limestone phosphate in it, as a
harmless means of helping to wash
from the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels the previous days indigestible
material, poisons, sour bile and toxins;

Those who wake up with bad

subject to bilious attacks or constipa-

of limestone phosphate at the drug
store. This will cost very little but
is sufficient to demonstrate the value
of inside bathing.

dren's welfare movement would have
been seriously hampered.
Such institutions as the military
school at Roswell and the institute
for the blind at Alamorgodo could not
have had increased appropriations for
buildings absolutely necessary to care
for the growing attendance. In fact,
all of the state institutions would have
felt the loss of revenue.
1t was emergency that caused Gov
ernor Larrazolo to call the~owners of
mines of all classes to conference that
way might be found to avoid a
slump in revenue from the checked
| industry.
Representatives of the mining inter
ests rose to the occasion, after discus
sion, and entered into the proposed
arrangement which was enacted into
| law.
A commission of citizens, including
mining engineer, will investigate
| conditions and report to the legisla-
tive session to be held at the end of
the two years. At that time such new
| legislation can be enacted as may be
deemed just and expedient, depending
upon conditions then existing
Had any cinch legislation been en-
acted, or any muddled act been pass
ed, in disregard of the spirit Of fair
adjustment, collection of mines taxes
probably would have been held up by
litigation; perhaps by federal injunc-
tons on the ground that the statute
was confiscatory in its effect, and
destructive of property.
Or else closing of large mines might
have been caused until such time as
prices of metal would justify renewed
activities. This would have been a
serious misfortune to communities as
well as to the state.
The effect would also have been to
| discourage investments that are being
invited, for the railway proposed to
reach the coal fields in San Juan
county and for the new coal and coke
corporation being financed by people
of Colfax county and in Colorado
counties, to develop an industry in the
vicinity of Ration.
1t might have stopped progress in
the great project of developing the
! Organ copper mines of Dona Ana
county, which at present outlook will
soon require a railway line.
Not only would large mines be hard
hit by any oppressive measures in
time of depression, but there would
be little hope Of lesser owners being
able to operate, because they could
not borrow money, as even strong
companies must, when quick turn
over and profit could not be made.
There are many small mines in New
Mexico that are worked when condi-
tons are favorable. Miscellaneous
mining investments and Improvements
contribute much to the prosperity of
New Mexico. The state owes much
of its wealth and growth to mining,

WEDNESDAY ...... APRIL %. ISL
A NEW CHARTER PROMISED.

The slogan, Defeat the new charter
and amend the old" won the election
Yesterday in Albuquerque by major
itv of 1866 on the face of the returns
It is now understood that the
fitv commissioners, following their
slogan of defeat the new charter
and amend the old, will appoint re-
vision committee to practically re-
write the city charter and submit the
revision to the voters at the earliest
possible moment.
That such amending will not be in
harmony with the state constitution
probably will make little difference
because it will be done by de facto
city government and it is not likely
that any citizen will attempt to init
ate legal proceedings to prevent the
operation of the amendments, if they
arc adopted.
That the new charter was defective
in many particulars, was generally ad-
mittcd. It was a great deal better
than the oldl, but commission rep
resenting the various elements in the
city can rewrite the present charter,
the voters can adopt it, and the next
legislature can, legalze it, and the city
will then have probably about as good
a charter as is possible for a city tc
have.

DEPENDABLE ASSETS.

1t is announced by j. f. Saint chief
of the State tax commission, that for
this year the four hundred million
dollar mark will be reached for valua-
tions in New Mexico. Field agents
are adding to the rolls in all the
counties as reached.
Starting with total of 1913, 900
valuation for 1918. the data coming
in raises the figure constantly. so that
sion for 1919 will probably be ex-
ceeded. The increase of SS50.000 in
Sandoval county announced by the
commission and a report from a
field agent showing a gain of $500, 900
on assessment of $4,000 more head of
livestock cattle in Sierra county, are
indications of the tax commission g
activities and the workings of the
present tax law.
One strong factor in the situation
is that the valuations of 1918 will not
slump, says Mr.. Saint, by reason of a
falling off of coal and metal mines
production and prices.
Many mines have suspended opera
ton, particularly copper and zinc
properties, Very heavy loss would
have occurred had not large mine
owners and operating companies
agreed with the Legislature to stand
by and pay taxes on production values
for 1919 and 1929. on basis of the
average during the three peak years
in both output and prices received
for metal.
The production for the three years
just passed was stimulated g the
highest degree by the government
which was pdrchasing for its own wal
uses and for the allies abroad. The
armistice resulted in immediate stag.
nation in copper business, because OF
surplus held by tha government and
producers. The market price of cop
per was cut in two.
Few of the largest of mining com
panies have since been producing II

latter state some of the large compa
MES have reduced production, Of

That in 1919 any of the companies
will make the average tonnage o
either of the three preceding years
or secure the prices upon which tax
alton in New Mexico was based. is o
course impossible. In all probabilit,
neither will results in 1920 net tn,
