platforms throughout the republic the
acts of the administration were criti-
cised to the point of vilification. Ad-
ministrative affairs were allowed to

Military men realize that cam
paign in Sonora would be by no means
simple There is reason to believe
that it will not be easy to get together
in short time the 10000 men it is pro-
posed to place in Sonora. II this is
done. however, their mobilization and
transport will be a difficult task. The
movement of an army of 10000 in Mex

under the army's present organization,
since these women take the place
largely of commissary department.
Transit by land Of from 10000 to 49,
600 human beings, together with artil-
lery, horses, mules and other equip
ment, presents manifold difficulties.
The easiest way would be to send
them by sea to Guaymas, but Mexico
has none too many transports.
The government counts upon the reb-.
els to secure any great quantity of
money, and believes that arms and am
munition will be difficult to procure
On the other hand, however, the gov
eminent will have to secure great
amounts of money if It successfully
carries out an aggressive policy. The
administration believes, apparently
with some reason, that it will have no
! difficulty in raising the 100000
peso $3.50, 1000 loan recently au-
thorized; but even this amount prob
ably will have to be augmented if the
revolution continues for any length of
time. When the executive asked con
gress to authorize this loan it was as
sumed that the government would not
have to continue facing civil war.
