Before deciding whether the insurrec-
tos have so fortified themselves and
are in such possession of Aqua Prieta
as to warrant a belief that their con-
troll of that place is permanent, the
government at Washington must be
informed Of all the facts which will
throw light on the question; and the
Arizona officials, with the army Of
Ulcers at Douglas Will naturally be
looked to for the reliable information
which the government requires.
1t appears. therefore, that circum-
stances have thrown heavy respon-
sibility upon Arizona's federal officials.
That they will meet this responsible
ity conscientiously, and without par
TALLY for either side OF the unfor-
tunate Mexican controversy, goes with
out saying. 1t is deeply regretted by all
good citizens of Arizona that Mexico
is in the distress Of a civil war, and
nothing would please the people of
this territory more than to see peace
speedily re-established in the neigh
boring republic.
But it is extremely interesting to
contemplate the possibility that the
immediate future of the Mexican in
surrection may depend upon the de-
cision reached at Douglas today by
officers of this territory. 1t is no
exaggeration to say that recognition
Of the belligerency of the Mexican
revolutionists by the American gov
eminent would at once immensely in
crease the prestige of the insurrecto
cause throughout Mexico, and would
make the task of the Mexican gov
eminent much more difficult For
this reason, it is safe to say, our Of
ficials will proceed with the utmost
caution.
They would no doubt feel greatly
relieved should they find today that
the insurrectos had evacuated Aqua
Prieta.

a Heavy Responsibility

It happens that the governor Of the
territory, the United States marshal,
the United States district attorney,
and the United States collector of GUS
toms for the district Of Arizona will
all be in the city of Douglas today
because of the unpleasant predica-
ment in which the people Of that city
find themselves, and because it is
the duty Of these officials to be on
the ground as the representatives of
the government at Washington.
In view Of the capture of the port
of Aqua Prieta by the insurrectos,
the question of recognizing the insur-
gents as belligerents has become a
practical question at Washington.
