PICKING LAND FOR STATE.
Land Commissioners Have Over I2,
 100000 Acres to Pick Out.

Titles to the land owned by the state of Arizona will be in perfect shape when the land commission gets through with it's work, and the land to which the title is given will be as good land as the commission can pick out for the state.
 Mulford WinSOr, chairman of the land commission, was in the city yesterday talking with the supervisors regarding the school land leases. Incidentally he talked about the land in the state which the members of the commission are now selecting and to which the state will have perfect titl1.
 The commissioners have been working in the north part of the state selecting land, but the weather got so bad that they have been driven south. They have picked out much of the land they want for the state but they will not get all that is com ing until they have looked over the entire state and have found what they believe to be as good land as they can select.
 They do not want to get land ahead of settlers but they want to get all the good land they can without~ crowding the settlers. They have over 12,OOO, ,OOO acres to pick out and that is great task, if it is done properly, and they are doing it properly. It would take but few months to select great tracts of land and get the title in the name of the state, but in the years to come the state would realize every little from such land. Tucson Star.
