We have been selling flags for over
thirty years and think We know a
thing or two about them.
We know that many of the flags on
the market are not made to wear or
keep their color, but only look good
until they are sold.
We know that We have found a
firm that makes flags that will prove
satisfactory When they say wool

We have been buying from that

as low as the inferior kinds are sold
for.
We have a great many kinds and

 Jesus Maytorena, son of Gov ernor Maytorena of Sonora, was ambushed and killed by Yaqui renegades Sunday afternoon near La Mesa. while driving in a buggy toward his hacienda, the property of Governor May torena. The body was found soon afterWard.
 The young man was highly regarded by his father, the gov ernor, because of his business like qualities, and his efficient management of the ranch. The Yaquis managed to elude pur- suit and have presumably made good their escape"

MILLIONAIRE EXECUTED.
Member of the Armada Family Guilty
 of Treason.

Neither great wealth nor fami- ly influence were able to save the life of Roberto Armada a millionaire who has just been executed in Mazatlan for treason according to report received in Tucson this week. The execution caused a sensation, for it was thought that Armada would merely be kept prisoner until the present rebellion subsidies or becomes victorious over the established government.
 Armada was a member. of one of the chief families of the state of Sinaloa, a young man full of ambition whom his parents could not restrain from joining the revolution. He was a cabO or leader in the attack and capture of Culiacan, and took part in several recent engagements of less importance.
 The manner in which he was taken prisoner a few days ago was typically Latin-Arnerican. Armada took passage in disguise from Culiacan presumably bound for the states to endeavOr to Se cure ammunition for the rebel cause. When the steamer drop ped anchor at Mazatlau which is m federal hands, and the gov ernmenu inspectors boarded the vessel, Armada dared not make himself conspicuous by remain ing in his taterOOm but joined the crowd on the deck, keeping his face as much shielded as possible without attracting at tention.
 He would probably have escap- government inspectors happened to overhear the conversation of two small boys who had board ed the vessel.
 Who's that lonesome looking man over there who keeps look ing out toward the sea ?" asked one.
 The other looked at him clos ely for moment.
 Why that's Roberto Armada he said.
 Armada was arrested imme- diately afteward. He was the delight of the Mazatlan news papermen, for he took pleasure in posing for their pictures, some time on foot and again on horse back, and with his rifle, revolv CT, knife and cartridge belt conspicuously displayed.
 Up to that point it was more or less like pay. But when he was taken before the judge of the first instance in Mazatlan his trial was brief and to the point. He was quickly adjudged guilty of treason against Mexico and his execution was ordered.
 Armada and another man, also convict, were stood up against a wall and shot by squad of 12 men.

A CLEAN SWEEP.
Entire Citizens Taxpayers Ticket Is
 E ected.

OJUithStandinG the fact that fine friends of the Progressive Municipal Ticket made despe- rate fight to save a portion of their candidates from defeat at inc municipal election held in Norales last Monday, the entire Citizens Taxpayer Ticket was elected by handsome majorities. The vote polled was one of the heaviest ever polled at city election in Nogales, and every man in NOgaleS on election day went to the polls and voted. There were mighty good men on both tickets who had strong supports and every inch of the ground from the time the polls opened at seven in the morning until five o'clock in the evening was hotly contested, but the Citizens Taxpayers were better organized than the PrOgressives and at noon it was all over but the shouting.
 The men elected are among the most progressive successful business men in the city. All are taxpayers who have the in terest of Nogales at heart, and it goes without saying they will give the city splendid admins tration and at all times work for the betterment of Nogales and all her people.
