Ware, at Silver City, giving an outline of the
situation in the Indian country and the eff
forts being made to recover little Charlie Nc
Comas, from which the following extracts are
made: The good offices of the Governors Of
Chihuahua and Sonora, Mexico, have been
secured through Governor Sheldon, and
large reward offered. To assist in his identi-
fication photographs have been circulated
throughout the entire Indian country. The
greater bulk Of the Apaches on their res

to time, as it is believed, reinforced from the
reservations. They are all armed with the
best variety of breech-loading cartridge rifles
AT present there appears to be a lull but it is
believed arrangements are in progress, by
joint action on the part of the United Stat g
and the Mexican government, to pursue, stay
with and cxterminatc these hostile Apaches
without regard to cost or difficulty. If such
a movement is made the boy may not be re-
covered alive. At present all is hostility.
No Indian can leave the reservation without
death wherever found. In fact the feeling
is so intense that large bodies Of men are or
ganizcd and awaiting the word TO move upon
tile reservations and butcher every Indian,
big and little. This strong feeling exists
against longer permitting nn Indian reserva-
tion to remain in Arizona The feeling seems
universal that the entire Apache tribe, quiet
and hostile. must be extcrninated, for the
q
could with safety leave the reservation to find
the boy. Bad as is this state of affairs, here,
in Old Mexico, it Is worse. In Sonora and

to make business of it with u large number
of troops and at very great expense, with
starvation as an ally. One of the hostiles who
was in the McComas murder happened to get

A LAuDABLE project is on foot among the
ranchmen of the Gunnison and the citizens
of Delta to raise a fund to secure the bridge
over the river for the season, and make it a
free bridge. Quite numbeI have interested
themselves in it, and we are satisfied that the
bridge company will meet them half way.
This is a move in the right direction, and one
that ought not by any means. be dropped.
With little aid from the board of County
Commissioners the plan can be put through.
A bridge over the river is necessity during
the summer months, just the time when trav-
ell is the heaviest. The bridge can be secured
for good deal less than the amount of toll
that will be collected, and besides the people

ONE of the disadvantages under which the
great dissatisfaction, is the discrimination
made against this place by the Denver & Rio
Grande railroad. TO say the least these dis
ordinations are unjust and unfair. For the
the figures from the freight tariff schedule of
that road, taking the points on the road in
this vicinity. On through freight, fourth
class, which is the class in which most of the
merchandise is shipped, from Cimarron to
Montrcse, "a fraction over twenty-five miles
distance the charges per hundred pounds are
10 cents. This is over the Cedar divide, the
very worst part Of the entire system. From
Montrosc to Delta, distance of twenty-five
miles, all down grade, the rate is 80 cents per
hundred pounds, or three times the rate
charged over the Cedar divide for the same
dstnnce From Delta to Grand Junction, II
distance Of fifty miles, or more than twice the
Distance from Montrose to. Delta, the rate is
only 80 cents per hundred On through freight
in car lots the ratio is about the same. just
why discrimination so great between two
points where the railroad company has the
sam. interest has never been fully explained.
1t is easily to be seen why business in Delta
