WAR WITH YAQUIS.
SERIOUS REVOLT OF INDIANS IN
MEXICO.
Yaquis Have Reen Fighting for Tnde-
pendence Since 1735-Mexico Is to
Blame for Insurrection-Someth
of the Picturesque Yaqui Country.

The insurrection Of the Yaqui Ind,
promises to give the Mexican govern
ment another prolonged war. 1t has
been but two years since the last up
rising of the YaQuis was put down,
after nearly fourteen years of fighting,

cations Of preparedness. Contrary to
statements made that the Yaquis would
not mOlest the American residents in
Sonora-the Yaqui country-there have
already been slain number of Ameri-

developed that one of the causes of the
uprising was the fact that the gov

Printing Without Ink.

An English company has been
formed to print, without the use of
ink in any form, by simply bringing
the plate into contact with chemically
dampened paper, linen, silk, wool, or
other fabric, and obtaining good,
clear impression of any desired densi-
ty. The operation Is as quick and
more simple than letter-press printing,
and the work resembles in clearness
and delicacy copper-plate or lltho-
engraving. Ordinary printers type,
blocks, form, stereotypes and electro
types may be used as a printing sur
race and drawings, etc, requiring
several blocks Of electros, lithographic

and by confirmation of title by the
king of Spain long before the Mexican
government was thought of.
When Mexico revolted and establish
ed her independence the Yaquis refused
to recognize the new government and
proclaimed their own independence and
autonomy. Since then the effort to OBJ
tain from them recognition of the
authority and law of Mexico has led
to frequent collisions between them
and the government troops; pitched
battles have been fought and though
generally beaten by superior forces
and forced to retreat for the time, they
have never yet been subdued. Already

Don't Want Land Divided.

AS laborer the Yaqul Is hard-work-
Ing and faithful and can always be re-
lied on. He does not shirk his work
when his foreman turns his back and
he does not shorten his days work by
continued cigarette smoking. No Won
der, therefore, that he is highly valued
for the work he can and does perform.
AS do many other laborers, he gets
drunk when pay comes on Saturday
evening but he confines his carousing
to the rancheria in which he lives and
keeps his family and when Monday
morning comes around every man is at
his work. The Yaqui country from
Buena Vista to the gulf has always
been held as common property by the
Haquis as a tribe and has never been
portioned on; to individuals as in other
communities. The reason for this Is
