 Mexico to Meet All Debts.

a
 Mexico has never repudiated any of her international obligations and will meet every debt which is due She has the resources to discharge every obligation without making any serious drain on her national wealth and as fast as these assets become available with the revival of industry she will meet her obligations. In the oil regions there has not been one in stance of confiScation, nor are the companies paying royalties. In 1918, they produced 64,OO0, ,OOO, ,O0O barrels of oil out of a potential capacity of their wealth over 5SO million barrels. Their own published balance sheets show their prosperity and pfofits.
 The very intense press propaganda of these days, when the bandits are being killed, captured or are surrend- ering to the government forces, or dis banding, and when the qualification of the country is in sight, is interpreted in my country as the last effort of ex- patriates, members of the old regime of Mexico, and their powerful confed- crates and politicians in Europe and this country, to precipitate armed in tervention, as they feel that when the complete qualification, the rehabilitation of the industries now in suspense, the intensification of commercial relations and the general development of the wonderful resources of the country the regime etaoinetaointaoinrdl are accomplished facts, their dream of the return of an obsolete despotic sys- tenn of government, and the embroil- ment of two nations in armed conflict will be a thing of the past"

IN CONTEST PROCEEDINGS AT VALDEZ WICKERsHAM SAYS HE IS AFRAID SOME OF THE SIG NAL CORPS MEN WILL TRY TO GET HIS REAL SCALP.
WILL THEREFORE CEASE
 TAKING OF TESTIMONY
TELLS ON WITNESS STAND WHAT HE AND HIS FRIENDS SUR MISE ABOUT SIGNAL CORPS MEN AND THEIR VOTING AT THE LAST ELECTION.

VALDEZ, Aug. 29.-(Special to The Citizen Wickersham testified yes terday in the contest against Grigsby for the delegateship. He said he did not intend to take further deposi tions from the signal corps because his friends feared that he would be killed if he undertook it, and that he had been advised by his attorney and good many other respectable men that if they testified as to whom they voted for the signal corps men would falsely say they voted for Wickersham altho it has been notorious that most Of them had voted for Sulzer He thus directly accused signal corps men of intent to commit perjury and perhaps murder.
 Wickersham further testified to being severely beaten in an alterca- tOn with Tom Selby last Saturday and that he had been unable to do any thing since. The facts of the ma ter are that the voting of the signal corps men was probably about evenly divided between Sulzer and Wicker sham and the latter now realizes it.
 The signal corps men are all men of high character. In the fight with young Selby Wickersham received a slight bruise on the jaw and had one tooth knocked out but was not wound ed otherwise. Wickersham struck Selby first and the fight really amount ed to nothing. Wick is only trying the baby act now in order to get sym pathy.
 Wick is also endeavOring to have the entire vote of the soldiers of Ft that they had not resided in the pre-
 iict thirty days before voting. al ho they were all drafted or enlisted men from various parts of Alaska and all had resided in Alaska for several years prior to enlistment and had al ready been stationed at Liscum more than thirty days prior to election. He claims these men could gain no residence by being stationed at Lis cum and that therefore could not vote in that precinct. He is thus try ing to disqualify as voters all Alas hans who were patriotic enough to enlist in the army during the war but whG were compelled by military or dcrs to reside in other precincts than that in which they lived before enlist ment,
