The Arn.y Needs Increasing.

O the Editor of the Globe.
Ii must be evident to every thoughtful mar
that our army is entirely too small for the
ne gallant Custer and his brave followers.
The killing of that fine soldier, Lieut.. Col.
Lewis, the affair in which the brave Thorn
nrgh lost his life, snd the more recent mas
acre of Gen. Carr and bis entire command,
I'll, all show that our military force is not
trong enough to protect the extended frontier,
I'd bloody massacres and defeats may be looked
or until cnpgrf So becomes aroused to the i'm
ortance of increasing our little army, so that
it will always be convenient to concentrate
force sufficient at any one point to keep
the foe in subsection. After the next appor-
lonment the great West will control the
legislation of the country, and Western men
who know something of the dangers of
frontier life will regulate the size of the army
to the necessity Of our extended froatier.
The blood of our murdered soldiers and
frontier settlers, the little mounds that mark
the last resting places of gallant men and
murdered women and children to BE- found
upon every hilltop and every valley from the
Red River of the North to the Rio Grande on
the South, the terrible massacres of Custer and
Carr, with their hallowed sadness, speak most
earnestly in favor of an increase OF the army.
The effective strength should be great enough,
80 that when detachments are ordered out
they can be made sufficiently strong to over
come all Indian opposition, and, in case of
conflict, deal such heavy blows that the saw
ages will not care to encounter them. When
the Indians are made to understand that de-
tachments sent out will be able to whip them
ON every field, and, under all circumstances,
troubles on the frontier will cease, and the
bold settlers who have pushed out beyon!
the general line of civilization, will not be
kept in constant dread OF say
age outbreaks. The Indians should
BE- transferred to the war department and then
with reasonable increase of the fighting
force of the army, peace will be established on
our frontier. 1t was the writer's good for
tune to know Gen. Carr we'll. He was
brave and gallant soldier, yet cautious and
4arefu!, and the destruction of his command
was not due to rashness or disobedience.
The killing of few soldiers produces tenn
Dorary excitement, but that will pass away
in short time except in homes where sadness
and sorrow are carried by this terrible
carnage. Some persons boys have been MUIR
dered. The sc.lps of some persons boys have
been stretched on hoops and made to perform
part in the disgusting orgies of these mer
CHESS savages. Sunshine has been forever ex-
cluded from some PERSONS homes by the
cruel death of darling boys. Will the day of
reckoning ever come! X. WI.

River Convention Delegates-A Free Talk
About the Streets OF the City.

River Convention Delegates-A Free Talk
About the Streets OF the City.
At themeeting of the chamber of COM
MERGE yesterday communication relative to
the sending of delegates to the river improve
ment convention, at St. Louis next month,
was referred to the river committee.
The subject of the condition of the streets,
discussed last week, being again introduced,
City Engineer Rundlett said the wooden pave
ment of Third street has lasted eight years but
new pavement IS now required. He denied
that all the streets were in bad order. Some
are in good order, he says, and those which are
IN bad order are where the property has never
paid for making street. What is needed on
some of these streets is q foundation-wIth
out which good street cannot be made. He
favored paving, but that costs money. He
then gave quite detailed statement of some
Of the difficulties which the city officers en-
counter in keeping the streets in order.
Mr. Drake spoke of building debris on
Broadway, between the engine house and Ninth
street.
Mr.. Murray explained that the property
owners on Seventh street and on Wabashaw
street have never paid dollar for making
those streets.
Mr.. Lee criticised the filing between the
street railway tracks on Eighth street.
DR.. Day thought it should be the business
of the police to make compliant against per
,ons blockading streets or side walks, and
claimed that in filing the bitches dug for lay
ing gas and water pipes the earth and stones
should be rammed in and the top left at grade
Mr. Drake said The street railway filling it,
front of his hotse was Infamous stuff-mud
IN wet weather and dust IN dry. The same
stuff was being put in on Sibley street. 1t
would readily work into brick mortar. He
thought the city authorities should see to ii
that the railway company uses proper material
ON the streets.
Ex-Mayor Dawson was glad of this dlscus
sion, for the city was powerless to act in ad-
vance of public opinion. He said sewer con-
nections should be provided for when the
sewers are built. Also that two systems as
to streets should be inaugurated-granite fac
ing for the principal streets, and macadam for
the outside streets. It would take, he said,
one hundred and fifty men and fifty teams 10
keep the streets, as they are now made, in de-
cent order.
The discussion was closed with an agree
ment that the chambers committee on streets
will meet with the mayor, city engineer and
city attorney, some time this week, to consid-
er what had best be done about the streets,
and the chamber then adjourned

A Day of Prayer for the President.


The GLOBE on Sunday contained telegram
from Gov Hoyt, of Pennsylvania, proposing
that Tuesday Today be set apart as day of
fasting and prayer for the recovery of the
President. Gov Pillsbury did not receive the
telegram until Monday, and the time being
then so short, he sent the following response:

The Confidence Chaps Released on Bal

The Confidence Chaps Released on Bail
r. s. Paine and W. H. Mansfield, the two
confidence men, were brought before Judges
Wllkln, Simons and Brill, sitting as full
bench, yesterday afternoon, for the purpose of
giving bail. The bonds were submitted In the
SUM of 5000 each, signed by each of the men
respectively, with E g. Rogers and F. L..
Rogers as sureties, and were accepted by the
judges and also approved by County Attorney
Egan, whereupon the court ordered their re-
lease. AS they passed out of the court room,
accompanied by their wives, they were met at
the foot of the stairs by Sheriff Richter. who
rearrested them upon warrant charging them
with similar offense committed in Hennepin
county. Shortly afterward they were turned
over to Capt. Berry, of the Minneapolis police
force, and taken to that city on the 5 p. m.
train. It is understood that their preliminary
examination in that city will result in their
discharge, as the witness, Waters, who they
feeced, will not appear against them.

company, the Baggage transportation COM
pany, and Henry Lowry, for an alleged IT,
debtedness Of $196 ,3S0.l6, and for insurance
on wheat destroyed in barge in transit to

pany by President Lowry was fraud against
the creditors of the former company. Judg-
ment is asked against the st. Louis & New
Orleans company, and an order is asked re-
straining the company from selling any oil
said property until the debt is paid.

THE MASSACRE OF GEN. CARES COM
MAN0.

The freqency of massacres of our
troops by the Indians 1s, to say the least,
becoming decidedly monotonous, and the
matter deserves and should have the
prompt and energetic attention of the in
terror and war departments. The con-
duct of Indian affairs is placed by law
with the interior department, and while
it is perhaps proper that that department
should have control of the tribes that are
peacefully occupying their reservations,
it is very evident that the care and sur
villance of the hostile Sioux, Utes and
Apaches should be committed to the war
department with authority to use all the
troops necessary to keep them in subjec-
ton, and to punish all assaults upon life
or property of the whites.
The recent slaughter of Gen. Carr and
his command at Camp Thomas, Arizona,
by the Apaches is only less horrifying
than the Custer massacre by Sitting Bulls
band several years ago. The
fault seems to lie principally with
the Indian agent of the Apaches, who
was either ignorant of the fact that large
numbers of the savages had left the res
ervation with warlike intent, or was
negligent in not informing the command
ing officer so that he might be prepared
to encounter them. There were also too
few troops in the vicinity to successfully
cope with considerable number of the
Indians, and the small handful of men
were completely overwhelmed and rath-
lessly slaughtered in the first engagement.
The Apaches are by all odds the bravest
and most warlike of the Indian tribes.
Ever since the territory of Arizona was
settled by the whites they have been
continual source of trouble. 1t has been
found impossible to keep them on their
reservation for any considerable time,
small bands of bucks being constantly
stealing off and committing the most
savage atrocities on the white settlers.
To add to the gravity of the present stu
alton, it is limited that the Mormons, who
largely inhabit the territory, have been ac-
tive in fomenting the recent disturbances,
and encouraging the Indians to resist the
government and massacre the troops.
Those who remember the Mountain
Meadow massacre of 1856, will be inclined
to believe the reports without much cor
roborative testimony. The matter Is GER
tainly worthy of the closest investiga-
ton, and if the statements are found to
have basis of truth prompt measures to
suitably punish the miscreants should be
1t is apparent that the troubles with |
the Indians are by no means at an end.

THE free thinkers in convention have

The free thinkers IN convention nave
adopted resolution of thanks to Gov.
Roberts. of Texas, for refusing to appoint
a day of prayer for the recovery of Presi-
dent Garfield. The resolution is in bad
taste. 1t is true that Gov Roberts
had right to act as he did, but at such
a time as this there is no occasion for
splitting on theological points. Be-
sides, it is apt to create the impression
no doubt an erroneous one-that the
free thinkers do not desire the Presidents
recovery.
