and that within 80 days anything hav-
ing the appearance of a rebel organiza

that there will remain the task of run

President Huerta and the war min

their counsellors, seemed confident that

in Sonora will be rendered practically
harmless.
Gen. Gustavo Mas, with 700 re-

against Garranza. Gen. Casso Lopez
is officially reported to be approach

ters.
Belief Not Shared
Many residents of the capital, how
ever. do not share the belief of the
government. Some regard the proposed
tactics as presaging a long conflict
with the rebels rafding the country
and the federals holding the towns.
Both the rebels and the federal gov
eriiment are doing their best to picture
the future in the brightest colors, but
there is doubt that either side is able.
from financial standpoint, to carry on
the campaign as outlined. The govern :
and is assuring the public that it will
soon have it, but in the meantime the
rebels are steadily increasing their
scope of operations.
In Bad Condition
The states of Morelos and Guerrero
are in the worst condition. There are
risings in Oaxaca and Tobasco, but
thore is reason to believe these are
mostly of local character, In Guer-

must be content to hold the larger
towns.
