lutely In no danger whatsoever. When l levied the extraordinary assessment on the merchants, bankers. business and professional men in general in an effort to alleviate the poverty stricken conditions of the poor, the foreigners engaged in business here, through the minister of France, petioned the first chief Vera Cruz to be exempted from it's provisions. MT. CarranZa granted their request and since then these for eign merchants have been very favor ably disposed to our cause.
 Many of the business men, bankers and merchants gladly their tax and others stated their willingness to comply with it if given additional time. They are now daily endeavoring to meet its requirements.

COMMISSION STILL HOLDS II COMPLIED
 WITH REGULATIONS
States Selecting Body Says Land Was Allowed to Lapse in Order That Other Tracts Might Be With drawn for Survey Purposes
 and May Yet Be
 Taken Up

That the state land commission has never conceded any failure to com ply with the regulations of the de- partment of the interior relating to the publication of notices of the 714,- GOO acres withdrawn which have just lapsed to the United States, is the statement of Chairman Mulford Win sor of the commission, who declares that the states preferential right was abandoned while tine matter Of pub lication was still in dispute.
 The commission makes the following statement:
 Under departmental order, each state is limited to three 3.500,0 900 acres of land, and Arizona had withdrawr approximately up to the limit for sur vey. In addition. there was a large body of land which the commission wanted withdrawn, but which brought the area designated beyond the limit. In the meantime the department at Washington claimed that publica ton had not been made in the time stipu- lated by the regulations. and that 714,- 900 acres were thus affected. The commission, while not admitting that it had failed to secure publication of the notices, allowed the matter to drop, in order that this other body of land, comprising some thirteen town ships. might be included in the states withdrawals. The land which lapsed was by no means undesirable, and is not lost to the state, as the selections can be made as soon as the plats are filed in the land office.
 No selected land was included in the area. as was at first. incorrectly announced. nor was the cost to the state any such amount as was stated The total amount expended by the commission for land selections is ap- proXimately s11 000 and the area se lected 668.000 acres. or, at a rough estimate, about ? cents an acre. The commission has. in addition to the land selected. done the preliminary work on at least 1,000,0O0 acres more, and the total amount expended since the commission was organized. ac- cording to, the sworn statement of the commission. is something over $55, ,00O. {"
