ALL ABOUT WHAT WE KNOW
OF PIONEER

We find that SOME enc who flg-
ures under the nom de l'tt0nc Of
:'Pioneef" has made himself (pr
tried to- conspicuous in the col
umns of the Prescott Miner Of the
18th inst. Had his dizziness" held
out q while longer, he would have
been saved the trouble Of telling a
few falsehoods. We have refrained
from saying anything about the
matter of the turning over Of the
tax roll, as we considered it a per-
sonal fight between one Of the
Board of Supervisors, the District
Attorney and the Sheriff, and as
for the interest manifested, "PiT
neerr couldn't see it, becauseE It
was on the other side. The tex
payers and men who have inte4est
at stake here, were with the Sh& r-
if throughout the whole troubf.
1t IS true that this county has bedh
rictimized badly by officials, any
the last dash was made, if we lpist
take not,b "pioneer's" particular
friend, who has gone where the|
woodbine twineth with the effects
of several dead men---living ones

CONGRESS.

We have already indicated our
choice for Delegate to Congress.
There are many reasons whyG Gov.
Mccormick should he returned.
It will be remembered thai the
true secret of political supremacy
in the Southern States prior to the
war, consisted in the good sense
of the people in electing their best
men to Congress, and keeping
them there till they grew old and
gray in the service.
Men are not born legislator
they must be educated in the busl-
ness as well IS in any other. No
sensible man would employ q
blacksmith 10 build 3 house, or ::
carpenter 10 make q horseshoe
nail; and what is true in matters
of this kind, is practically true OF
aIl the affairs Of life.
Mr.. Lincoln said of the cam
pairn of sixty-foar, that it WAS moi
policy to swap horses while cross
mo 4 stream. 1t was a crude way
of illustrating a great truth, ou1
it was eminent!y applicable to the
situation. The nation was just
then crossing the fearful stream
of the rebellion, and it was not
deemed prudent to exchange an
experienced pilot fer one less &C.
ouainted with the uncertain cur
rents of that dangerous river.
We are on a voyage Of an en-
tirely different kind; over the
stream that flows between a weak
and helpless Territory and the
strength and vigor Of a powerful
State. 70 accomplish this voyage
with dispatch and safety, we re-
ouire al experienced pilot at the
wheel of legislation. We have
such an one in the person OF Gov
Mccormick ,aad we sincerely hope
that our people will not commit
the folly Of even attempting Il
displace him. That he is an ell
cient and faithful servant is al
admitted fact on all hands. Tha
he is a gentleman of ability, edu
cation and refinement, IS preft.

brother, who was in the guard
house, made two attempts to es.
cape through the roof, and was
shot by the guard. An Indian was
observed by Lieutenant Ross TAX
ing dead aim at Gen. Crook, and
but for the action of the Lieute-
nant, in quickly pushing the Gem
cral out of range of the gun, ne
would have been q dead General.
The bullet that was intended for
Crook nit and killed an Indian.
Most of the IndiaJS ran away when
the firing commenced, but the
Chief and these who had to re-
main fought like demons. The
fight started behind Gan. Crook,
and he is sorry that it occurred,
but it was inevitable, as the In
dians would have resisted arrest
under any circumstance. OchOca-
rna, after having fred old boots,
iron wedges, and other missiles
Out of his cell, ut the guard jumped
| through the canvass roof, was shot
at twice, pierced with a bayonet
once, and finally made his escape
to the hills, where, according to
the story of some Apache Iumas
who have since come into Mr..
Gilson's place, he died. y worse
Indian never expired in this Ter
ritory, for, according to bis own
confession, he murdered Mr.Leiby
ard Mr.. I;vartS, in Bells Canyon,
on November 10, 1866, for no other
reason, he said, than that some
person had told him that Leihy
had sold some Of his annuity
goods. Leihy WAS Superin'end-
ent of Indian Affairs at the time, |
and Mr.. Evarts was his clerk.
At this writing We have not the
number Of Indians killed in the
fight, but gentlemen who were
present think that, Including
Ochocama and his brother. the
A pache-Mohaves lost about seven.
Others were wounded. Mr.. Hewitt
says many more could and would
have been killed but for the earn
est efforts Of Gen. Crook and DIR.
Bendell to put stop to the firing.
The soldier who was stabbed by
the savage was not expected TO
survive.
Let US have done with "peace"
policies, Or at least give US enough
soldiers to punish when peace
wont do. Let us carry the Give
branch, but hold the sword ready
to punish when peace will not
have the desired effect. But the
trouble is that we have but just
enough troops, possibly, to guard
the posts or repel an attack, or, IN
other words, enough to he OF no
| uS1. in the world. But why talk?

THE DISTURBANCE kT DATE

l4th we learn the origin ana cauS :
Of the fight at Date Greek. We
are glad to know, at least, who
the guilty parties are that conn
mitted the brutal massacre of the
Loring party, on the morning. Of
the 9TH Of November, 1871, near
Wickenhurg. There are Il great
many who, when Z murder or
robbery is committed in this Ter
ritory, arc always ready to cry out
"Mexicansn" They have enough
to answer for, and it does us good
to take this from their door. We
condense as follows from the
Miaer:;
Gen. Crook was informed by
VIM. Gibson, citizen Of Date
Creek, that he had reasons for be-
lieving that Date Creek Indians
were mixed up in the affair. Gen.
Crook set spies-b0th Indians and
whites-at work, to hunt up tes-
tilnony, plenty Of which, it APP
pears, was soon after forthcoming.
Attempts were made by General
Crook to arrest the murderers, but
each time he was defeated by or
ders 20 cease hostilities, and lei
the Indians and "peace Commits.
sioners'' settle the row. But this
time he reached Date Creek and
commenced his work. Arriving
there on the 9TH inst, he found
that the Indians had not, agree
ably to promise, come in 10 meet

when some 80 Indians. leo by their
chief, OchOcama, made their ap-
pcarance, armed and painted, ap-
parently ready for war. Mean
time, DIR. Bendell and Col. Jas. NJ.
Barney arrived from Ehrenberg;
Capt. Byrne, D. II. Smith, Irataba.

Indian came from Camp Beale

ncighboring valleys were also
present. 1t was then arranged by
the General that the M0haves
should be kept out Of sight Of the
Apach e. Mohavcs untileverything

derers. The time for the council
came; three or four Of the stage
robbers were assembled, and one,

Indian, who speaks English,

viously understood, by the whites
