"If vou want to do buslnee pay tat," is said to be the motto f th Vliarmrusn atlil Hnnittiran governments under) the regime of Jon. nsmos Hys, tut president, inis is the report brought here by W. I Shar key of Blueflelds, Nicaragua, who for more titan three months was in business in that republic. He says a policy of extortion was practised against me people who en- trstred In the mininir business. If thev wanted to succeed and export their ores without trouble thcr found it ahvavi savantBL-eous to make a "u vvv" w tn the "Intendciito" or personal rcpresen- isuve 01 me dictator. "Often," said Mr. Sharkey. "It is im perative for the mining company or en gineer to give the President some of the hock In mo company or at least a liber al share of the returns from that output of the property This alone will insure immunity from harassing interferences always met with until such arrangement has been made. "The trouble lies in the instability- of the mininir laws. As I understand it. a duly of but 54 cents an ounce is charg ed upon the gold exported from the countries, but thoe who do not look after their own interesta bv areasiris the officiate are Just as apt to have to pay 150 an ounce, or w even assessed more. If the minltia man is wise he will find It to bis advantage to protect him self by getting the inWmlentes inter ested so that they will not impose upon me company when the time comes for snipmenti. "Favoritism is the cause of a creat deal of distress In the country. Zelava la king and he rule things as he choose. He give out concessions for all sorts of indutries and no oue can embark in them unless he has a concession. One man has the right to sell tobscco in the Repub 11c 01 xMcarsgua, and he charce what ever he pleases for It.

The sii-'lit of a child trotting to a ulnnn tt or uiree tunes aauy, pail in hand to procure the family supply of beer a familiar one in a great city impeaches the parent for a criminal indifference.
