Apache Courtship and Marriage

WHEN an Apache brave concludes TO
marry either first or any subsequent
wife, the manner of his courtship is the
same. He makes no effort to become
agreeable to his intended bride-indeed,
rarely If ever notices her or speaks to
her, except in answer to questions she
may put to him. He pays more atten-
ton, however, to her male relatives,
particularly her brothers, II she has
any. Finally, if he becomes satisfied
that declaration will not be rejected,
then the whole affair is accomplished in
a few hours, and generally in this fash
ion. At night he takes the presents in
tended for tho girls parents, who alone
are entitled to receive any. and places
them near the lodge in which she lives.
If the presents are horses they have
their trappings also, and are tied with
macate near the lodge; if cow is to DO
given, a single straw or cows horn,
which signifies the intention, is tied to
the lodge. If the presents are accepted,
which almost always happens, the girl
goes in the morning and builds a now
lodge or hut for herself and husband,
and puts the straw in it for their bed.
If the man is rich there is some cere-
mony about the marriages; if poor, worry
little or none. When the parties are OF
consequence one of the orators of
the tribe is employed by tho
bridegroom to place the presents near
tho lodge and make a speech to tho
BRIDES family for him. The orator
stands at distance of several yards.
and in his best style makes the declare
ton for his principal. In this he d.
lates on his clients quaities-his cour-
age, his skill in hunting, or anything In
which he is distinguished. The orator
confines himself strictly to the truth
in his speech, and promises that his
principal will maintain and defend his
bride, but at the same time informs
her family that he may at some future
time take another wife, and even may
become tired OF her and send her homo
all of which are the necessary incl
dents of Apache married life. He also
tells them that while she should remain
his only wife, he would be faithful to
her, and should expect fidelity, obe-
dience and service from her. When
he returned from hunting, foray OF
play, he wanted his food prepared 40
soon as possible, and he should expect
her always to have a store of food on
hand. On his part he would bring her
game and spoils Of the enemy whenever
he could. Her relatives make presents
to the parents or family Of the husband
and this is all that generally is donh
Among these Indians it Is considered 3
great indecency for = man to look at
his mother-in-law's face. and still more
80 to speak to her. II by chance they

to have said: "The tariff is local ques-

that he did not know what he was taking
about, and that be had better stick to mis-
trade. We notice since that Hancock says
he will more fully define his position on the
tariff question at an early day. He had
best get Jere. Black to do it for him II he
does not wish to turu his defeat into farce.
As a statesman Hancock is not success.
Fortunately, he will not have any occasion

SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC In
sTRUcTioN.

The Superintendent OF Schools occupies
one Of the most important positions IN the
community. On his good seose, integnty'
education and interest in bis work depends
largely the efficiency Of teachers, tho adop-
ton of aud adherence to the best systems,
aud tho character and intelligence OF the
rising generation. In DR.. L. 4. Holmes
the Republicans have nominated gentle
man who is . thorough scholar, a gradu-
ats of one OF the first institutions In the
land, practical teacher, and one who taxes
a deep interest 10 all educational matters.
Possessing, besides, firmness, self poise and
a thoroughly independent disposition he
will bring to the Office OF Superintendent
the very attributes most essential to secure
good teachers for every school In the
county and bring it up to the highest stan
dard of excellence. DR.. Holmes is well
known by almost every citizen OF the
county, and should receive majority al the
polls worthy of his attalnments and char
acter.
