Mules In Andorra
Washington, D. C.—How the Andor- I
runs, citizens of the little republic ’
,\vhich has preserved its independence
among the cr.igs of the Pyrennes since
medieval tithes, have developed smug
gling until it. has become their great
war industry is told in a communica
tion to the National Geographic So
ciety from Herbert (’orey. was corre
spondent. A part of Mr. Corey's < <>m
munication is issued by the society as
a war geography bulletin, as follows:
“Doubtless Andorra smuggles at the
best of times. That is the conclusion ■
1 reached, at least, from the perfect l
openness with which every one dis- ]
cusses the free-trade proolivities of ;
the Andorrans. One might have
thought they were talking of the spring
plowing or the price of lambs. And
yet Andorran secret ivcuess has become
a. proverb in the hills. ‘Tell a thing
to an Andorran and it is lost,’ is one
form of this saying. Nowaday:., with
the neighbor France in the? market for
everything that Andorra, can furnish,
and too busy fighting to watch her
douunes very carefully, the men of
Andorra, are reaping a golden harvest.
Scandalous rumor has it that the
Spanish frontier guards look with a
certain complacency on the illegal
traffic,
n “1 have a cousin who is a frontier
guard,’ a man in Barcelona, told me.
Tie says that if the war lasts another
year he will retire. At ten dollars a
mule, be is already rich/
“The situation of this quaint little
survival of lost ages favors this form
of activity. The republic of Andorra
measures about 25 miles in ope direc
tion by 20 miles in the other, and is
located right on the crest of the Py
j rennes. It. is as thought the little
state were a wedge driven in and di
viding France and Spain at this point.
Charlemagne gave the Andorrans a
certain measure of freedom because of
their services in the field They

helped the Debonair fight the

I Moors, with whom, however, they had
I a. lively quarrel of their own. For
that he gave them a franchise.
“It Is a Political Curiosity.”
“Napoleon** looked the little state
over.
“ ‘lt is a political curiosity,’ said he.
‘lt must be preserved.'
“Andorra lias maintained itself as a
political entity for more years than has
any other republic in the world. The
tiny stale of San Marino, in Italy, vics
with it in point of diminutivenessj but
i Andorra was hoary with ago when San
Marino was born.
| “It is not worth‘fighting for, and it
: makes no trouble that a few police
men would not quell. Nevertheless it
is a real state,
“Andorrans pay almost no taxes al
all. Each year a small tribute must
he paid to the Prince Bishop of Lrgel
and to the Republic of France, and a
levy is made on the incomes of the An
dorrans for the purpose. There are
almost no other costs attached to the
operation of the republic. Each of the
six cantons in which the little state is
divided elects annually four councillors
and the 21 sejecl one of their number
for president. They are paid a few
sous each when they attend a meeting
of the council. Their horses are fed
by the state and they have their meals.
N >w and then the hall of the council
needs a new slate on the roof. The
annual budget stops there.
“Spain has been fairly robbed of her
mules by the needs of the allied ar
mies, and so the further exportation
is frowned upon by the government.
Likewise, although these mules are
bought for the k'reneh army, France
still maintains an import duty upon
livesto'i:. The Andorras procure
mules by hook and crook from Spain,
and lead them over the hills at night
by unfrequented paths into France.
Thf share of the gendarmes in this
traffic, as previously stated, is ten
dollars a mule. There is no record that
an Andorran smuggler has been re-
cently injured in the practice of his
vocation.”
