 We learned yesterday that all the troops have returned to their posts in Northern arizona, except one company of cavalry. We have but one company of that arm of the service; suppose the Hualpais become restless-they are lia- ble to do so. In the last two years we are aware that a force has been sent each year through their country to keep be- fore them the power of the military. It was fine piece of foresight, and that same farseeing policy will surely have cavalry ready on the ground, prepared for a sudden eInergency. The Hualpais are not vet on reservation, and it Is well known fact that they are strongly aversC going on one. The presence of troops Is the only safeguard against this idea growing into a desire to raid and kill cattle. We trust that General Will cox will not permit a recurrence of the Cibicu disaster; that may have been un- avOidablc. We feel sure that any out break of tine Hualpais can be prevented by prudence and good management and we hope more troops will be stationed in this section.
