Has Been Robbed of Most of His Lands and Been Exploited for Many
 Years.
IS MOSTLY A FARMER
His Tribesmen Insist Upon the Restoration of the Lands Given Away
 By Rulers.

HERMOSILLA, Son, Mex, Jan. 23.-The Yaqui Indian has been the trouble maker of northwestern Mex ico for genera tions and his recent outbreak is but one of a large mum. Der which have occurred during the administrations of Diaz, Madero, and other leaders. L
 The basic cause of the unrest among these southwestern Mexico Indians is the land problem. At one time these Indians owned and titled thousands of acres of the most fer tile land in the republic which was watered by the Yaqui river. These lands were gradually confiscated by the various governments and par celed out to fayorites of the ruling powers. The Indians claim they were given inferior lands in place of on the restoration of these tribal hold ings. One American company now controls 300,000 acres of land in the Yaqui country, much of which is claimed by the Indians.
 The Yaqui tribes were originally agricultural people with a bent for hunting in the mountains during the winter. They are stocky, sturdy and possess many of the traits of the American Indian. Fighting has late ly been one of their chief occupa tions as they have been on the war path either in their own interest or for the various de facto governments for 15 years.
 During the days of President Diaz
 the Yaquis were dispossessed of a great deal of their fertile valley land by General Torres, the federal gov ernor of Sonora Large numbers
 were deported from the state by boat to the hot lands of Yucatan and to Tres Marino Island off the coast of i Tepic. This was one of the chief grievances which caused the Yaqui
 war. This war continued until the
 outbreak of the Madero revolution
 when the Indians joined with Ma
 dero against their sworn enemies of ! the old federal regime.
 They did much of the hard fight 1 Ing during the Madero and subse
 quent revolutions, especially at Cela
 va where they were Gen. Obregons chief mainstay when Villa and his
 powerful army attacked the en- trenched positions of Obregon's Car.
 ranza force The Yaquis were giv.
 en much of the credit for the vic tory which shattered Villas dream of political power and drove him back to the border. At Agua Prieta, Son
 ora, the Yaquis again aided in de feating Villa and causing him to re-
 vert to his guerilla campaign which included the Santa Ysabel and Col umbus N. M massacres.
 General Plutarco Elias Gales has undertaken a mailed fist" campaign against the Yaqui Indians in Conora to suppress the present uprisings. He has interned the peaceful Va auis in recommendation camps and has ordered all others hunted down and killed. Wholesale deportations to the hot lands of Mexico have also been threatened.

SAVING AND SERVING.

BY economizing in consumption
and with the resultant saving pur
chasing the governments war secur-
tiles, the American citizen performs
a double duty. The citizen and the
government cannot use. the same Ia
Dor and material; if the citizen uses
it, the material and the labor cannot
be used by the government If the
citizen economies in consumption,
so much material and labor and
transportation space is left free for
government uses. And when the saw
ing effected is lent othe government
more money is thus placed at the
disposal Of the government.
The more the people save the more
money, labor and materials are left
for the winning of the war, the
greater and more complete the sup
port given our fighting men.
