EXPLAINS PROCEDURE

Regarding the report that Mexican
land is being confiscatcd by the gov
eminent and sold to the japanese. Bo-
nillas said:
The exploitation OF lands in Mex
leo by the government can only be
effected through lengthy official pro
cedure after its owners have refused
to make a sale.
The negotiations would go through
local, state and federal channels and
would become publicly known. Much
American land in Lower California
has been untenanted by its owners in
the past few years. Permission to
till all vacant lands has been given
residents of the state by executive
order. This order in no way affects
the title or ownership to the land
but some evidently believe that il
means confiscation. The Mexican en-
bassy has received no confirmation
of the Mexico City announcement of

Opinion was freely expressed in Of

A novel beauty contest has been in
stalled by the Maxwell Automobile
Company, and G. L. Drew, the local
Maxwell agent calls the attention of
Moscow girls to this chance to be-
come nationally famous and incident
ly to win $3.50 for Moscow. Already

Drew gives the following announce
ment and invites the prettiest girls in
Moscow to communicate with him for

The Way the Contest Started.
The contest which has aroused such
widespread interest started in the fol-
lowing manner. Colonel King Stan
ley famous old Indian scout recently
toured the country on a wager in his
old Maxwell, which he called the I
Desert Rat" Starting from Los
he proceeded to New York
City by way Of Texas and Florida and
to California after passing
through Michigan, Montana, Oregon
and intervening states. The old Coll
onel has a great history, dating back
to his associations with Buffalo Bill
and was welcomed all along his trip,
receptions by six state ex-
scutiyes.
He had discovered and commented
IN all kinds of interesting subjects.
But it was not until he reached Butte,
Montana, after having covered some
5000 miles that the old plainsman
wen as much as recognized pretty :

he had his picture taken with comedy
western lass who he openly declared
"the most beautiful girl in twenty
thousand miles,
This statement Immediately aroused
the pride Of every Maxwell dealer in
the United States and protests and
photographs poured into the Detroit
factory. Learning of the indignation
the Colonel refused to back down an
inch but on the other hand posted a
check for $3.50 to show his determine
ton. At his suggestion national
contest was started and committee
