JUDGE KEY, when Postmaster
General, was perfectly willing for
Congress to assume the responsibility
OF the excessive Star Route appropria-
tions. That let out Key, Tyner,
Brady, yet Tyner's suppressed re-
proof which Key if not Brady had
read would have defeated the Star
Reuters if brought out at the
right time. Key after sending Ty.
ner out West to investigate
the expedited service and reading
his very damaging report, concluded
that it was a delicate matter to invade
Brady's jurisdiction and that the re.
port might make row. To this wise
conclusion he came after reading Ty.
ner's report. It did raise row sure
enough, but it was two years too late
to do much good. Judge Key, being
the only one of the trio who has a
lifetime position, can perhaps better
afford to shoulder the responsibility
which be attempts to throw off on his
Congress from which he concealed
Tyner's report. In attempting to
protect his friend Tyner, he exposes
himself as no one else could have
done.

WHEN the Little Rock Democrat
undertakes to lecture the Memphis
press" for anything that may have
appeared in regard to the late drill, il
might at least specify what press is
meant. The LEDGER has contained
no word Of complaint about the result
nor have we heard any from the Por.
ter Guards. They took their
chances, and had reason to believe
that they would win the first prize
1t was decided otherwise by the
United States officers of the cavalry
and artillery service stationed at
Little Rock we believe, and they
cheerfully abide by that decision
The sneers thrown at this manly
body Of young men both in this State
and e,swhere are entirely uncalled
for, and emanate from unworthy m J.
tives. Some of them individually
may feel disappointed of course, but
nothing more. The crowd that went
with the Guards thought they had
won the prize and may have talked
rather freely about it, but tho soldiers
themselves have preserved becom-
ing dignity aud decorum. When the
score Of the drill is published, as it
always is in such cases, they will see
their mistakes and be able to guard
against them in the future.

INDIAN TROUBLES.
A Railway Surveying Party Apply
for a Military Escort.
A Strong Body of Indians Moving
on an Agency.
Women and Children Moved to a
Place Of Safety.

SAN Francisco, October PA
Tucson special says:-The Texas and
Pacific railway surveying party have
applied for a military escort, which
has not yet been granted. The course
Of the survey leads them through the
San Carlos agency to Globe, and it is
feared that the Indians may be sus-
picious Of their movements and give
trouble. Should they suspect that an
attempt to steal their land was being
made, they would probably attack the
surveyors.
A special from Casa Grand says.
Early hismorning Mrs. r. B. Whee-
Ter, wife of Pura, the Indian agent,
arrived at this station accompanied by
Miss Lula French, Mrs. G. Arm
strong, Mrs. Kyle and a young son of
Mr.. Wheeler. They report that the
Salt River Indians have become pro-
voked at the agent on the same pre-.
text, and arming themselves,
are on their way to attack
the agency. They say these reports
are verified by old settlers on Salt
river arriving at the agency. Rev.
Mr.. Cook, an old resident Of the
agency, expresses himself as much
alarmed at the outlook. 1t seems
that the Indians are in the habit of
going to Tempe and getting on big
drunks. Wheeler has had them ar
rested and punished by compelling
them to labor. This is thought to be
the cause of the threatened difficulty.
They are said to be 600 strong, and
will probably appear at the agency to.
