A WARNING
 FROM SONORA.

Word has been received from So nora to the effect that on the 17th inst, an American citizen named Baker was shot and killed by Yaqui Indians at the Santo Nino mines in she district of Ures. To add further to the misfortune. the entire family sf Baker, consisting of a wife and tour children, were taken away by xie Indians, and although sought for later by soldiers are still in the hands Of the sayages.
 When the Yaqui war broke out the Indians depredated only on the lives aad property of Mexicans, and on numerous occasions made it known to the American occupants of the country that they had no grievances against them. but true to their say age instinct, as the lust of blood grew sn them. they dfscriminated less and less as to the nationality of their vic nms Within the past two years neither the lives nor property of Americans have been safe. Instead sf a struggle for liberty the war has segenerated into a struggle for loot, and it stands all good citizens in hand to help suppress it. This can be done effectively by the Americans without firing a single shot, says the Tucson Star. During the late bloody war with Geronimo it was found to be impossible to bring the wiley old rep rebate in so long as friends were permitted to supply him and his cut throat following with guns and am- munition, but with this cut of, and his supply base gone he was forced to surrender. in ike manner the "a. adt war could be brought to a speedy close The situation is in the hands of the people of southern Arizona The rebeIlious Indians are using this section of the country as a supply hase not only to make war against eur sister republic, with whom We are at peace. but with our own people. Representative Mexicans have re seatedly urged on Americans and American merchants not to sell fire arms and ammunition to the Yaqui Indians, but unfortunately it is still being done and Americans as well as Mexicans are forced to suffer in con- sequence. Of course such sales are no longer openly made, but that they are made is known and shown by the waste of lives and property that is continually going on in southern So nsra. General Crook said to the writ CT of this that Geronimo could not be brought in in twenty years" Had his policy of non-interference with the. Indian supply base been contin' ued in force Crooks prediction could and would have been made good. But with a change of policy and the In alan supply base destroyed Geronimo instead of continuing his bold and az eressive policy soon became a refu gee rrnning for his life and was compelled to surrender. The same policy holds good with the affairs oi our southern neighbor. If it were pos sible to stop the selling of arms and anruu,nitition to them the struggle would soon be over and life would he as safe in the Yaqui country as i is in Arizona.

THE PUBLICITY BILL.

7
 { What has become of senate bill 5777. providing for publicity of the names of subscribers and amounts by them contributed to political cam
 paign funds to influence what are called national elections?" This is an era of reform, and here is re form to which all of us are commit
 ted, whether we be of the elect or the reprobate. The president has re commended it and insists on it. On a roll call it would get every vote in
 both houses of congress, says the
 Washington Post.
 It is told in Goth that a measure pending in the house and identical with senate bill 5777 would be re, ported favorably by a unanimous vote of the committee to which it is referred-if the chairman of the com. mlttee could get quorum together; but it is whispered on the streets of Askelon that all hope of mobilizing a quorum has been abandoned for the session. Thus, so far as the house is concerned, there is little more chance of legislation against corrupt elections this session than there is that con. gress shall pass law regulating the ebb and flow of the tides unless con gress shall be stirred up.
 Of course it would be in order tc discharge the committee and put the thing on it's passage, and of course the measure would get the vote of every member on the roll call: but that is a legislative miracle hopeless of attainment.
 All of us remember what a wave Of indignation and tragic sense of dis may passed over the land when the revelations came of the contributions of certain insurance companies to election funds We all remember what a shock the public conscience got when it was judicially ascertained ir New York that embezzlement for election poodle funds was not an in crime Then it was that our statesmen made solemn promise that ] reform measure like senate bill 5777 should pass and be part of the law ,f the land as soon as congress got he opportunity.
 The opportunity is here and might nave been passed any day since Christmas when both houses were in session. It can be passed any day before the session expires.
 Knowing that both houses of con member of each house are anxious to pass this bill, know ng that it would be the law this blessed. moment if it had not been overlooked in the stress of the Al lrich bill. The Post as a sentinel or the tower feels called upon to remind congress of it's duty, knowing that congress, above all things, yearns fol 3 bill looking to the purity of cleo tions.
 We have not a doubt that congress will now act, having been reminded Of its pledges and its duties.
 Congress is patriotic!
