Show I Lead and the Tariff ry-iHB TARIFF is under revision in Washing-I Washing-I ton. Do our mining men realize the im portance of seeing to it that the truth about lead mining should be understood there? That Mexico has unlimited amounts of lead as a by-product of her gold and silver mines? That her gold and silver are worth as much as ours? That it will be mined even if the lead is practically prac-tically thrown away? That miners' wages in Mexico are 35 cents per day in American money? That with many of our mines lead is the chief product and gold and silver are by-products? That the abolition of the tariff or the reduction of it would be followed by wide-spread disaster to our whole mining region? Is it not worth while to send a gentleman to "Washington who can make the above facto clear to the average congressman? |
