Mexico city, April 20.-MeXico to-
night through tile minister of foreign
affairs modified her reply To the note
OF President Taft, regarding the Aqua
Priet1 incident.
Minister Della harra requested Am
bassador Wilson to advise the state
department at Washington that he de
sired to recall that portion of his re-
cent note in which he expressed the
surprise felt by Mexican officials at
the crossing of the international Dor
der by "Irdividuals of the American
army"
He referred To the incident of cap
tain Gaujot and Lieut.. Moore. who en-
tered Aqua Prieta on the day of the
fight and accepted the surrender of a
body of Federal troops. In view of the
late reports the minister declared his
belief that the officers did not cross
the line to ask the garrison to surren-
der.
The minister of foreign affairs r.
quested the American ambassador to
call at the department. and he briefly
outlined the character of the modifica-
ton he wished to make.
Discussing the attitude of Washing
ton, Ambassador Wilson asked Minister
Delabarra II he We're expected to un-
derstand that Mexico was attempting
to force the United States to intervene.
Expressing his surprise. Minister De
labarra assured him that nothing was
further from the intention of his coun-
try and that in this statement he cor
rectly reflected the attitude of Presi-
dent Diaz. He assured the amba ssador
that ii was the desire of Mexico TO
avoid any possible MISUNDERSTANDING

that body he appeared before it and
rendered an exhaustive report on the
international relations affecting Mex

Mexican government does not recog-

THOSE COUNTY BONDS AGAIN.

The truth about those county
bonds" as explained in the last issue
of The Journal does not seem to GOV.
er the entire ground. AS far as the
Cache Valley bank and Thatcher
Brothers bank are concerned there is
no controversy. They put in their bids
so that they could be easily interpre.

play. That was all they wanted. A
little new light, however lis thrown

fact hat Mr.. Champ evidently expect.

would not bid unless he were given to

issue and then let the one offering the
highest bid have them" And why
should it be necessary for the school

the Chicago bid said, I'VE will take

as above stated, with certified checl,

cessary for a representative Of the
bond house to be here at all. and had
he not been here it would have been
up to the board to have computed the
price in dollars and cents offered for
thebond issue. The question then is

would they have computed il on the

lines of least resistance and win as
easily as possible. The question is

The files in the recorders office
show that on April 4, the mayor sent

From an examination of the re-

that the financial condition of Logan
City is such that policy of strict
economy should be adopted and pur-
sued in all of its departments"
1T is evident from the report of
the special auditors that it would
materially aid in keeping the records
of the city correct in every particu,

recommend the appointment of Mr..
j. ii. Leishman, to act as auditor dur.
