Holdings by Foreigners Two
Japs on Peninsula

Mexico City, Wednesday. April .
t-tBy the Associated Press In
! lower California there are various
I foreign enterprises among which
, are one or two Japanese, to which
! have been given concessions for the
exploitation of certain natural re
! sources in various places. but none
[ of them have been permitted, nor
will be permitted, to acquire tracts
of land. because the constitution
prohibits this definitely" was a
statement made today by General
Amado Aguirre, under Secretary of
Agriculture and development.
Naturally there has been a re-
speCt for those companies holding
concessions which have always
complied with the stipulations of
their contracts, but some companies,
among them the Mexico Land com
pany. have had their contracts null
lifted for not having complied with
all their provisions. These COnces-
sions will be duly and legally
liquidated. Those interests which
have large holdings will be obliged
to divide them and nobody will he
given more than $500 acres"
General Aguirre declared the gov
ernment had not and would not al
low foreign interests to Obtain
lands in lower California. and point
ed out that article XXVII of the
constitution prohibits foreigners
from holding lands within sixty
miles of a frontier and thirty miles
of seacost He said that under
these provisions. because of the
geographical situation of lower
California it would be virtually I'M
possible for foreign interests to Sc
cure any considerable tract. in tae
interior because of the narrowness
of the peninsula
Regarding concessions held by
foreigners. the under secretary
stated that among those holding
fishing rights were both Japanese
and Norwegians. but he made it
plain that no foreign interests held
rights to land along the coasts.
Baron Fugitaro Otori. japanese
minister to Mexico stated Yesterday
that the only agricultural interests
by his country were small rice
lands near Mexicali. which he said
were absolutely without import

 Womans ability to hold her own in fields hitherto held to belong peculiarly to men is shown almost daily. Among the more unsual mans jobs' recently held successfully by woman is that of secretary of state for Arizona, when Acting Governor Simms left the state simultaneously with Governor Camp bell, who went to New York to aid in the welcome of the S40th field artillery.
 Miss Harriet Jean Oliver was the woman, and she is on the state payroll as secretary of state.

 MESA HELP OBSERVE
 PIONEERS DAY FETE

MESA. July 25.-Pioneer's Day was fittingly observed yesterday in the carrying out of a program Of music, readings and other forms Of enter tainment. in the Vance Auditorium. Committees had been appointed for the different wards to see that the old people had a way to reach the building, where they were entertained by the younger generation and the children of the primary association. The program of the day was under the direction of the association, Of Whlch Mrs. Bert Vance is the president.
 The first entry of the Mormons into the Lehi and Mesa vicinity was in the years 1877 and 1878. First came, from Utah and Idaho, company which after months of journeying rested upon the south bank of the Salt River and began the work of building a home on the desert. Of this company, that is those who were married at the time of their arrival here, there are yet living. Mrs. Emma Rogers, Mir. and Mrs. D. P. Jones, Mrs. W. G. Shill and Mrs. Se- rena B. Steele.
 In the following year, 1878, the com pany which settled where the town ot Mesa now stands, arrived.
 There were 72 people in this band, of whom there were nine married couples. Of these heads of families, with their wives, there exist today the following, all of whom live either in or near Mesa: Mrs. Sarah Pomeroy, Mrs. William Schwartz, Mrs. Ellen Crismun, E. Pomeroy, W. L. Shrine, w. M. Newell and Mrs. Jessie D. Hobson. These people rested two months,
 while en route, on the banks of the 1 Verde, then came on to the desert country, now changed to fertile fields
 and the thriving town of Mesa. They | found naught save cactus and desert growth, but while the Lehi settlers be-
 gan the digging of the Lehi Canal these last began on the canal system i of the Mesa, and thus was started the irrigation system of this section. It is
 a fact though that years, even cen turies before, there had existed an irri- gation system leading out from the Sah
 River. and when the Lehi and Mesa settlers through their engineers ran the lines of their canals, they were
 found to correspond in the main with | the remains of the irrigation ditcnes of | tine vanished race who in ages past
 had evidently grown their crops upon
 land that had long since returned to a desert waste.
