THE MEXICAN WAY
OF Dealing with the Indian Question
MANA ANA Hfs Band Extern mated.


A Santa Fe dispatch says: News hal Laen
received from Chihuahna which should be
hailed in New Mexico with firing of cannon
and ringing of bells. Mana, with the sole
remnant of his numbering band Of Apaches,
has been captured, and his suh-chiefs exc
cuted by the Mexicans. The news, rumor
of which reached US some days ago, comes
directly from Prtsideo Del Norte, in Chi
huahua, where the scene took place. The
Indians forty in number, led by Mana, came
into the Mexican village opposite Presideo,
and told some OF the prominent men there
that they had no intention of troubling
them. They said all they wished was to
trade with Mexico and fight the Americans.
The Mcxicans made an arrangement to meet
them at their camp. The Mexicans went
out to the Indians camp, but not to make
took the entire band prisoners, with
the exception of few men who
were out hunting. Then, picking out
Mana ard his chief, they led the
doomed men aside and drew up the other
Indians in line to witness the execution. A
firing party of thirty men was then detailed
opposite the Indians who were to die, who
had been placed with THAR backs toward
their executioners, and locking their friends
in the face. At his own request Mana gave
the word which sent him and his compan-
ions into eternity, and his own vitality was
such as to require three more bullets, in addi-
tion to the two which first pierced his breast,
to kill him. The bodies being buried, the
remainder of the Indians were sent, under a
strong guard, into the interior of chihuahua,
where the women and children were par
celed out among the population to work as
slaves, and the men were sent ON to the City
of Mexico, where they will be compelled to
work in the mines for the remainder OF their
lives. After Victoria's death Mana became
the guiding spirit of the hostile Apaehes,
and under his leadership they made their
raids into New Mexico. The party with
him was probably all of the band of hostiles,
and his death and theirs will forever rid

Hugh McGavock, Walter S. Bransferd,
Louis B McWhirter, A. NJ. Lambeth, Mr.
Chapman and S. III. Bell are all leaders If
the self-style led Low-tax party. Bfansford is
the secretary of the Low-tax State executive
committee, and the chairman Of the David
son county committee. Lambeth is the hIem-
Der of the Low-tax State executive committee
for West Tennessee. They constitute the
only ring that has been developed in con-
nection with the 1908 settlement, and they
stand convicted of attempts, or at least dis
position, to bribe and poison senators ard to
make money by preventing a settlement of
the State debt. They are convicted on their
own evidence of speculation both ways and
trying, purpose to try, to bribe senators
also confess that they originated, organized
and are running the scheme to defeat the
1908 settlements that they put up all the
are the fathers in short of the Injunction suit.
They hoped to make money by defeating the
settlement; they fl st tried to defeat by
bribery and poison, or at least make money
by delaying the execution of the settlement
and selling bonds short. And thus again the
faction that has been shouting itself hoarse
for years charging corruption on State credit
leaders, find that the would-be bribers and
poisoners, and the most reckless speculators
in the honor and credit of the State are
leaders in its own army of priests sitting
high up in its own temple. Will the honest
masses of the lox-tax faction ever learn that
they are but the tools Of desperate political

Special to the Appeal
NASHVILLE, January 6.-Hugh McG avoek
was recalled before the investig sting COM
mittee tetasy, and gave some interesting
testimony concerning the bringing of the
100 injunction suit. He paid the ex-
penses Of George Hunt to Memphis to con-
suit attorneys there, in consideration OF a
promise that he should have the first intelli-
gence that writ OF injunction was granted,
in order that he might sell "short" and make
money on the transaction. Efforts were made
to secure Davidson county men to become
complainants to the bill, without success. 1t
was thought no bill would be filed
unless Davidson county men be
came complainants, and MEG lvock
lost several hundred dollars by covering
short transactions. When he thought SUIT
would not be brought, a brilliant scheme
was inaugurated to make money by having
the bill dismissed. The scheme was inaugu-
rated in conjunction with attorneys, and COM
plainants were not in the scheme The
scheme was to effect the retirement of Mr.
Cherry from the bond. This failed. Wit
ness refused to divulge the names of the at
torneys who were in the agreement to dis
miss the bill

THE canvass is over ard the people gen.
orally acquiesce in the result. The partici-
pants have mutually forgiven the asceIbities
and bitterness that may have been inGulged
in in the heat of the contest, and the tR'eate
cordiaIe between friends temporarily sepa-
rated has been restored. Our old friend,
Judge Tom w. Brown who, following the
dictates of duty, gave his influence and
strength to the Peoples Ticket" notwith-
standing he was too sick to take part on
Wednesday night as chairman OF the Coch-
rane Hall meeting, was we'll enough TO put
himself on record in straightforward and
clearly stated way, giving reasons for the po-
sition he had taken. The APPEAL regretted
to find him on the side opposed to that which
our duty to the public made it necessary we
should support but we were sati. fed of the
honorable convictions of one of the ablest
lawyers and judicious thinkers OF the South
west, Ia scholarly and painstaking public
speaker whose predictions as to public affairs
have often been fulfilled but not, we regret
to say, as often followed. We recognize in
him a foeman worthy of our steel, and
feared the result of an example that, had it
been followed, might have resulted in disss-
ter to the Citizens ticket. Judge Brown is
nothing if not honest and manly. He is
always found where his principles point, but
no one Of all our local leaders quickly
puts away his armor when the battle is over.
The new Taxing District government will
find in him staunch supporter, and when
deserved, an earnest advocate and defender.
The APPEAL holds Judge Brown in the high
est respect and esteem.

ENGLAND.
FURTHER CRITICISM ON RrATNE

FURTHER CRITICISM ON BLAINE.
LONDON, January 6-The Daily Necs, dis
cussing Blaine's circular to the Republic OF
Central South Americs, proposing confer
ence at Washington, says: "The meaning
of the project is the establishment OF an
American protectorate over both Central
and South America. Biaine's pretensions
are novel and extravagant. They were never
contemplated by the originator of the Mon
roe doctrine, under which the attempt will
probably be made to shelter him. Now that
Frelinghuysen has succeeded Blaine, there is
at least hope that some rational basis of
negotiation can be arrived at. That Ameri-
can interests on the Pacific seaboard have
greatly increased since the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty was signed admits of no doubt, but it
is quite an open question whether England is
not interested in the Panama canal yet more
deeply. That England, with her vast Ameri-
can possessions and carrying-trade, should
become party to any agreement yielding
the canal into American hands and acknowl-
edging the suzerainty of the United States of
the entire western hemisphere, is dream be-
yon the domain Of practical politics"
