WHO IS RIGHT AND WHO Is WRONG:


 Gen eral Kartz, t0 give somc facts in regard
 to Indian affairs in tho southern portion oi
 the Territory. We knew whereof We spoke
 and gave truth only in our s,atc,acnts. The
 Citizen wants Us imprisoned for life or kil-
 led. and all others who do not sec the In
 dian question in the same light that I;
 does We have taken the rains fo gel
 dates, etc, III support of shat We have rre-
 .iously published. and WIG herewith give
 them io our readers, and prtter that they
 shalt be the judges a> io Wslo B m inc truth
 of matters pertaining in tie management oi
 Indians at the San Carlos Reservation. II our data of tine number Of raids made hy
 Gums Indians does moi suit thc views oi
 She worthy editor of thc Citizen, Wc will hand him in some more, which will proha-
 Div not be reli>hcd hy him. or. st least. some of the ring io which he evidently hc-
 ioncs. An investigation at the San Carlos may be asked for and lad. Taxpayers may
 want to know something about the issue oi
 beef and -four.
 The editor of the Tucson Citizen evidently has had his legs completely taken from under him in his abuses of inc NISEE on the subject of the military and Indian Ring" The articles in lhc Citizen of ihe. 10th inst. show that the editor had mach hard work ever s ti.m facts which the MINER gave t0 tle king ia ponder over.
 The Citizen wishes to impress the public that any one WII0 says 3 thrrc hundred pound Sonora steer weighs less than seven hundred pounds tells a falsehaod. for the ~eason that several cf the Indians have COWS this explanation k about aS clear as fh, Tucson editor could have made II under the circumstances.
 The Citizen asserts that the statement to the effect that the pte-encc of troops at the .Accncv iS objected to l,y the Indian Depart ytcnt k false Mr. Cinm, thr Agent for whom the Citizen ], haTpin@, had better bc consulted l,rioTc tbat assertion is Fvpca;eI. The views of ft:vucra, kaUtz published in ;hc MINER 0f' the 9llt instant recall io lis thc fact that 1t appears oyrT the signature of that Agent. in letter ta Experiment. ilead- quarters. dated October 9;h. I>.5, that he ,Clum) asked to have tiIe troops stationed outside the Reservation, sud shey wcCc rr- moved accordingly.
 In tha i.f.t.is' ni ihe Citizen against the military, it ptJlishos ..i. article referring !" sslllcod and piundef" iH SenoYA- What Gen. kautz hss to do win the management ot sfIsirs in Mexico. nnnc csn uuuer>tand but a nian who Is utterly iDrioru as to his nlean> of attack. .---..
 The TucScn Citizen further states that. s;Sot an Indian has Jeff san Carlos and sr,,ns. Ia ;hc i:ioVntain>. or elsewhere, spread inc terror" Now. let Is give Ihe editor ut ina; paper tI.e foilo-ins Reports to read. which are official records af tue the Military Department, and have .ang since been m The possession of the Indian Bureau As they are public iocnln"n1S, they can ic seen at any time bV pesaeps In doubt aS ;o whether CT not san Carlos iadiaBs have left . their Reservation and ''spfead trrror amongst the people"

 The Citizen asstsrr.s ;ts readers that none bat American l,eef-catte are issued {" ihe h. . .iians at San Carlos. To this, We will say that. not one pound of beef. known as American beef. has ever been issued 10 the Indians of thai Agency, or any other 4 scncy in Arizona. oF even to ihe troops m this Department, and the Tucson editor,
