 Just what Nacozari is doing to make that city the permanent head quarters of the Moctezuma district government is not known, but it can be truthfully said that the people of Cumpas are up and doing and that they feel confident of finally win ming success in a matter which they have been working for during the

Gil speaks good English and in a talk with Nacozari where he was received with honors on Tuesday last of the Daily Inter displayed perfect knowledge of conditions. pas and present in Sonora. Speaking of the future seat of government in the Moetezuma district, he said:
 Now that the insurrectos have won control of the government in Sonora the people of Cumpas feel tha they win be in line for some important recognition from the Ma deristas, because of their loyalty to the insurrectO cause when 1t needed help badly. Cumpas provided more than two hundred soldiers to fight against the old government, and be- sides contributed liberally ia money. Ne have been trying to get the seat of government away from Mocte- zuma for several years, but under oid conditions there was little chance for anyone not in a certain circle to get anything, no matter how strong public sentiment might favor it. Moctezuma contributed neither sol diers or financial assistance 10 the so that the people there

can hardly expect to hold the favor of the new government"
 Mir Gil said that crops were badly neglected this year on account of the revolution, as he said, because of the absence of nearly all the men from their ranches. Those who did not join the insurrecto army had to leave home to avoid being drafted into service in the regular army. However, he said there would not be a total crop failure, as many were now back at home planting later crops.
