tion the secretary OF Congressman Leopold Morse
of Massachusetts,, called on him, at Mr.. Morses
request 10 inquire If something could not be done
for a young man. then resident in Boston,. VINO

the Navy, but whose application had been re-
jected by the Medical Examining Board because
of physical infrmity. The young man was the
of a widowed mother whose HUSBAND hau
served CALAMITY in the Navy, and who had died in
the service. After all the circumstances OF the

AS TO THE YAQUI TROUBLE.

Word comes of further "pernicious activity"
on the part of the Yaqui Indians They are
said to be in regular military order. seven
or eight thousand strong, to be stopping the
mails and laying siege to towns, and in general
to be creating something much like civil war.
The scene of their operations is the State of
Sonora, Mexico. Their avowed intention Is to
eXpel all Mexican authority from that State
and secure its annexation to the United States.
This purpose they have impudently proclaimed
in an address to "the American People," and
they have made strong efforts to get Americans
to join them. 1t is said that a few disreputable
Adventures from the United States have act
ually joined them. and rumor that some of
these have met their deserts at the hands of
Mexican soldiers has been made ground for
some wild babble about friction" between the
United States and Mexico and repeating the
history of Texas"
1t seems fitting to say that these Yaquis are
simply rebels against the lawful government Of
Mexico, who are properly to be suppressed with
lead and steel. II any Americans have been so
wicked and lawless to join them, they are
deserving of the same fate for they are guilty
of invading the territory of a friendly nation
TO the detriment of its peace and integrity. If
any of them imagine they are going to be coun-
tenanced and upheld by the United States in
their schemes. they are doubtless making the
mistake of their lives Sonora is a part of the
Republic of Mexico just as much as California
is Of the United States. The United States Laws
claim to it, and does not want Il. The United
States is on terms of peace and friendship with
Mexico, and expects to remain so. 1t certainly
does not propose TO have those relations dis
turbed by the lawless acts of border ruffians
If any Mexican outlaws come into the United
Ga Il
they deserve The same fate will doubtless at
tend, and should attend any United States out
laws who go into Mexico and make trouble II
the Yaquis want to rebel. that is their affair
But there must be no looting of Sonora in the
name of the United States
