day transmitted to congress the correspondence
between the department of state and the Mexi-
can government concerning the right of certain
Mexican citizens to have their claims to lands
in Arizona and New Mexico coded to the United
States by treaties adjusted and confirmed. The
United States, says the president, owes o duty
to Mexico to confirm to her citizens these valid
grants that were saved by the treaty. and
the long delay which has attended the
discharge of this duty has given
just cause of complaint. The entire
community where these large claims exist,
and, indeed, all our people, are interested IL
early and final settlement of them. No greater
incubus can rest upon the energies of people
for the development of a new country than that
resulting from unsettled land titles. The neces-
sity for legislation is so evident and urgent that
venture to express hope that relief will Re
