Douglas, August 7-According to Agua Prieta friends of General Alvaro Obregon, the Sonora mans candidacy for the presidency of Mexico is grow ing in popularity daily. General Obre- gon is now at Nogales, but will leave in the near future for Mexico City, where national headquarters for his campaign will be maintained.
 The election will take place in July widespread interest in the race. AS yet there are only two candidates, and it is hardly probable that others will enter he race, according to those in touch with the situation. The race is between General Obregon and General Pablo Gonzales. The latter is head of the Mexican army and close friend Lof President Carranza. Already he had been dubbed by the followers of Obre- gon as the official didcantaecmwy gon as the official candidate
 General Gonzales is strong in the southern and central parts of the re- public, including the state of Coahuila while General Obregon finds his strongest support fin the northern western and eastern tier of states. Both candidates express friendliness for Americans and desire to estab- fish more friendly relations with the United States, as well as to induce a greater investment of American cap l ital in Mexico. General Obregon, due l to his residence on the border and his activity in border campaigns, has had more dealings with Americans than has his opponent. Wants Gonzales to Resign
 Recently General Obregon demanded that General Gonzales resign his posi- tion in the army while running for the presidency. As yet he has not done so, but it is said he soon will. Con- zales asked Obregon to sign an agree ment to abide by the result of the cleo tion, no matter what it was, but Obre- gon refused to do so, fearing It is said that Gonzales might be counted in" by the Carranza machine, which will control the election machinery. Obregon Makes Charges.
 The other day Obregon charged that Gonzales in private correspond ence with him suggested that the two come to an agreement and work out a plan whereby both could serve as president. alternating the office. This would be a violation of the constitu tion, Obregon charges. Gonzales Icountered by defying Obregon to make
 public any such letter and Obregor has replied that he will do so as soor as Gonzales resigns, saying it would
 be a breach of trust to do so now. Ano
 thus the matter stands.
 Most of the Mexico City papers nearly all of which are 'administra tion organs, are backing Gonzales fo Excelsior made a poll the other da,

ON INCOME WORK

Reports have reached the bureau
of internal revenue that some tax
payers are under the impression
that revenue agents sent out to

The bureau of internal revenue to D..
day issued a statement declaring
such impression to be erroneous
and wholly without foundation.
Revenue officers engaged in check

to lay out a trail for the rest to

the direction to be followed, but

signs and he is able to read them
at a glance. Arriving at his des-

his pack and makes a fire, over
which he cooks his dinner. A
