Aqua Prleta, Sonora, April l6.--
Sonora troops continued their march
toward Culscan, capital of the ad
joining state of Sinaloa today, ac
cording to information given out at
military headquarters here.
Military authorities said that sue.
cess OF Sonora troops in Sinaloa
would give the seeding state the
military power necessary to success.
, fully overcome any force President
CarranZa might send against the
, northern state.
Carranza. according to reports ro.
celved by Sonora officials, press dis
patches, and official Mexican federal
reports, intends sending at least three
armies again Sonora. one OF these, l.
was said, is TO attack the state
Sonora territory from southern ports
in transports, and the third from
Chihuahua on the east.
Sonora troops, however have tail,
on the aggressive in the south ant
crossed the Sinaloa boundary and
captured two towns. Leaders Of the
Sonora movement here said tho attack
from the sea must fail and that
troops were being sent in Increasing
numbers to the Chihuahua bound.
ary.
Rumors continue 10 be circulated
throughout Sonora and in high ad-
minstrative circles Of the revolt of
other states and federal troops in
sympathy with the Sonora movement.
Confirmation Of these rumors is
lacking.
Sinaloa will be rich ally for Son.
ora and as important a loss for
Carranza IL It goes over to the new
republic" The state Is one Of the
richest mining d. ;tricts on the con-
tinent, potentially, and already its
mines send out much ore OF all kinds.
It is the most irrigated district Of
Mexico. and several Of its rivers are
navigablc. Neither Sinaloa nor Sonora
have suffered from the long years
Of strife in Mexico and the state
would be much more able to outfit
and provide for a revolutionary army
than many other Mexican states.
Backers OF the secession movement
declare the state has ample finan-
cial backing to care for any military
campaigns, and that the revenues
that formerly went TO the central
government from the state are avail
able against Cara a. Influential
Mexican refugees who have been liv,
ing in the United States are declared
70 have pledged credit for the fight
against Carranza.
Arms to fit out the recruits joining
the Sonora army were being reQuisl
toned throughout the state today by
military officers. Private citizens pos
sessing firearms and ammunition were
appealed to by General p. Elias Gales,
commander in chief Of the military
forces and acting executive of the
Republic OF Sonora. TO turn them
over TO the army.
The greatest danger the revolt
has TO face, officials here said, was
the apathy toward further fighting
by Mexican citizens who have con
tinually been called upon to either
fight or aid armies of one afction or
another, in Mexico for years. Amer
leans coming out of Mexico said
this factor was the greatest deterrent
to the movement they had found in
western states of the republic. In
Two or three sections of Sonora re-
cruiting has not bee UP to expecta'
tions of Sonora officials because
of that fact, 1t was said.

WOMEN TO SEE THAT
 VOTE IS RECORDED.
(From Sundays Daily)

It will not be the fault of the women of Prescott if any republican vote is allowed to remain uncast on election day. A systematic campaign that cannot but be effective has been started to locate the votes that can be counted on for Harding, Camp bell or Cameron. If the voter is known to favor any of these candi- dates, the women folks propose to find it out and it will then be up to the organization to sec that the vot- CT is brought to the polls.
 The campaign is being directed by Mrs. Richard Lamson. Her captains for the four Prescott precincts are: North east, Mrs. Dixon Fagerberg; south east, Mrs. C. E. Yount; north west, Mrs. A. J. HiIger; south west, Mrs. Louise Wetmore Each cap tain has conscripted a company of workers in her precinct. While the service expected of each private is not excessive, in the aggregate the results become very important and tn work of the women may spell the difference between success and fail ure.
 A meeting was held Friday after noon at Mrs. Lamson's residence at which the voters registered from the south west precinct were canvassed. The following ladies assisted: Mes danes Yount, Colvig, Bradbury, Hazeltinc, Stanley Day, Jack Jones, Hilgcr, Wetmore, s. H. Martin, Cunning and Lamson. Each under took a portion of the work in hand with the result that decidedly valu- able returns will be secured in time for election. Tea was served at the conclusion of their conference. The ladies were advised and assisted by A. H. Powers.
 A similar meeting of the ladies of the north west precinct will be held at the residence Of Mrs. Dixon Fag- crbcrg 130 No. Mt. Vernon St., on Monday afternoon at 2:3O o'clock. .All republican ladies of the precinct .who may be able to help in the worl, arc invited to attend
 There will be a meeting of tie ladies of the southwest precinct at the residence of Mrs. L. B. Wet more, Camp BcauYoir on Monday evening and in the north west pre- .cinct on Tuesday afternoon. The place for the Tuesday meeting will be ani1ounced later.

 Courthouse attaches yesterday volunteered the opinion that it was Ia good thing for w. Gardner that Jack Sullivan will not assume office as county attorney until January 1. It was this-a-way:
 When Mir. and Mrs. Sullivan were on their way to the democratic rally at Kirkland, they hit a bad place in the road and turned their car over, escaping with a shaking up and few bruises. Necessarily they left the car by the roadside all night. The next day it was found to have been stripped of tires, that is three tires, tubes and rims had been abstracted.
 Gardner was arrested at Kingman yesterday morning by deputy sheriff whp reported Gardner had been stopped while driving through ell route 10 California. The sheriff's office suspects that the car, in which it was said were found the three stol- cn tires, was itself stolen, and an at tempt will be made to check up on this phase of the case
 Sullivan was glad to get an oppor tunity of recopering his tires, if the ones found or Gardner's car prove to be his.

MINING CONGRESS NOV. Is
 AT DENVER TO BE ONE OF MOST IMPORTANT MEETINGS
(From Sundays Daily)

(trom Sundays Da1ly)
 DENVER, Colo, Oct. 22-Inter- est among the mining men of the nations runs high regarding the plans for the first conference ever called to discuss the alleged oppres- sivc practices of the great trust which claims to control every known method of ore recovery by what is known as Notation" Nearly 1,500 mining companies either known as users of flotation, or who have tried to secure contracts with Minerals Separation, Ltd., have been invited to attend the conference called by the American Mining Congress in Denver during the week of Nov. Is Hundreds of these companies are facing costly legislation and millions ill alleged royalties and fines are in- volved in suits now pending. Amer ica'S leading legal experts are fight ing, for and against the big corpora ton which the federal trade commits sion Is now grilling, urged by the American Mining congress which believes that the methods of the trust should be changed, or the prac- tices Of the company looked into by congressional inquisition.
 The developments of the confer encc will mean much to the mining industry and the hundreds of opera tors who have been prevented from using Notation, or forced to accept alleged unreasonable contracts, and have long been fighting mad"
 Another conference to be held during the Mining Congress and which may bring some relief to an overburdcned industry is national tax comlnittee representing the American Mining Congress and Rob ert s. Wilson, chief of the newly or ganized tax division of the congress. A number of mining tax experts will address the tax conference but the meeting will be largely a Round Table" affair and there will be rfank land open discussion of the appalling demands upon the mining men of the country throuhg the present cum bcrsomc tax law. A bill will be pre- pared looking to amendments of the present law during the next session of Congress.
 l. Nearly 200 mining engineers and manufacturers have already joined the committee whic hhas called national standardization conference during the mining congress week. Col. Warren R. Roberts of Chicago, who was in charge of the standardi- zation of war material during the war and Charles A. Mitllc, a wei. known Arizona mine manager, are chairmcn, respectively of the coal and metal divisions. The sub-com- mittees are in charge of noted en- gincers. Ali mine managers, mining engineers and manufacturers of min ing equipment have been invited to attend what gives promise of being very important meeting in behalf of saving of lives among miners and reduction of costs in mine opera tion, coal and metal
 Other conferences listed are on tariff for war minerals, labor condi- tions, education, coal and gold. Gov crnors of several states, United States senators and congressman arc among the speakers already listed on the programs.
