Hailed by COumtryIlen
AS Senior de la Huerta, Senior RAJ
monet and a reporter were talking in
front of the Heidel hotel number of
Tucson Mexicans walked or drove by
and hailed Don Ado!fo with great cor
diality. A few others who know Senior
De la Huerla, but who disagree with
him politically, drove by without
greeting him.
Besides laying bare his plans with
respect to the present revolutionary
movement in Mexico; Don Adolfo de-
livered a scathing arraignment of the

of Justice officials in Tucson, at their
request. of course. The interview was
entirely pleasant and my freedom was
in no way interfered with.
II also visited the Yaoui village
north of town and consulted with sew

regarding the present strength of the
uprising in Sonora.
There are now $4,000 men up in arms
against the government in Sonora
alone. OF these, 5000 are well armed
and 5000 are poorly armed. The ma

comes the Mayos, then the Pimas and
finally the white men.

down by these and other revolutionary
forces in other parts of the republic.
How long the Gales government VIII

prophet But The present anti Gales
movement is in many ways analogous
to the Madero revolution, which con-
sumed about six months in reaching
| it's goal.
