The tribe, which still numbers’ somewhat more than 3,000 individuals, is the Yaqui, who have held their mountain( valleys and villages in the state of Sonora, in the northwest corner of Mexico, against all comers, ever, since they arrived there, supposedly in the Athapascan migration, possibly later, but certainly ‘hefore'the coming of the Spanish Conqulstadores,,.in 1520, for Yaqui a powerful tribe; whom neither they nor thelr Metican successors in the Innd of manana’ have been able to subdue. ~ Yet, this fali, 8.°H.

Ever since white men came to the-new world there has been trouble with the Yaqui, that branch of the great Ataplascan migration which halted—both actually in point of movement, and in point of Progress {n civilization—in the moun- tains of western Mexico more.than ten centuries ago. Discussion of the rights and wrongs of the quarrel is beside the question, now that. peace has been nude, but the first bistorical mention of the Yaqui fs in the Sixteenth cen- when the first band of Conquis- tadores came into what Is-now Sonora, After continuous small wars, the first treaty wag made when Don Francisco Ybarra brought my people, nominally, under the Spanish crown, “One “hundred and thirty ’ years passed, a long period of broken agree- ments, and in 1740 another treaty of peace was signed, and a battalion of Yaqui soldiers, incorporated, just the same ag -now,, in the governmental army, tfled to bind the wild race.to the royal rul This peace, however, did not last lo} for the Yaqui demanded ubsolute control. of their tribal lands ; f the Yaqui river valley aud, tabling fo get this, again took/the wat path. In. 1768 there was an outbreak which exceeded any preceding it, and the War lasted three yéars, when both sides be- ibg exhausted and the forces of the crown far from their base, peace: was concluded, which lasted until 1781. “During this. period of quict, towns sprang up tn the Yaqui river valley, and plantations blossomed -all over the lower part of Sonora. Gradually, the Yaqui saw thelr lands slipping away from them, and once more they-began war, without warning.

Jose Urrea patched up anotlier peace treaty, which held until the French tnvasion. . Inter- nal quarrels kept so many troops in the field that no further attempt was made to take lands from the Yaqui, and they remained quietly in: the Yaqui river valley, mere watchers-of the conflict for state control on the plains and in the valleys below. “In 1860, however, the Yaqui again went on the war path, and stayed there until after Mexico had disposed of Maximilian and. the Napoleonic dream of new world empire, and a governor appointed by, Benito Juarez had taken his:seat in Arizpe, then capital of 'Son- ora.

They began to respect Obregon, then to fear him and, finally, to admire him, as a man who,,as you Americans say, al- ways ‘beat ‘them to It.’ Comes Genera! Obregon. “Gen. Elias-Calles succeeded general Obregon as governor of Sonora In 1917, ,but, largely because the Yaqui did not ‘know him personally, ‘he was unable to arrange w peace, though the forays be- came much less destructive and -fur- ther apart. Meanwhile General Obre- gon, who was even then preparing for his own revolutionary movement, in- corporated a regiment of Yaqui sol- rvent, San Anio: diers into his army, and invited me to represent the Yaqui on his staff.
