YAQUIS INDIANS
UPRISING AGAIN

HERMOSILLo, SON Mexico, Jan.
70.The Yaqui Indian has been the
trouble maker of northwestern Mexico
Tor generations and his recent out
break Is but one of large number
which have occurred during the adj
minAstrations Of Diaz, Madero and 9th
er leaders.
Starting with Bronco Yaquis along
the Rio Yaqui in southwestern Sonora
early In September, the revolt has
spread to many of the allied tribes,
including the Mansos Yaquis who have
been peaceful in the past and who de-
rived thaif names from the fact they

In the rich Yaqui River Valley of
southwestern Sonora the Indian up

had been harvested. Storehouses
where these crops were put away for

tons far into the north toward Her
mosillo, the capital Ammunition and
rifles were smuggled across the So

OF engagements fought between the
Yauuis and the federals resulted in
the routing of The government troops.
The basic cause of the unrest
among these southwestern Mexico In
dams is the land problem. At one
time these Indians owned and tiled
thousands of acres of the most fertile
land IN the republic which was water
ed by the Yaqui river. These lands
were gradually confscated by the vari-
Gus governments and pareeled out to
favorites of the ruling powers. The
Indians claim they were given inferior
lands in place of their original hold
ings and insist upon the restoration
nj these tribal holding. One Ameri.
can company now controls 100000
acres of land in the Yaqui country
