The CUSTER and THoRYBuRa massacr 9
ought to have convinced the government
long ere this that they cannot conquer such
terrible. active and blood thirsty savages as
t,e western Indians, numbering thousands
OF picked and desperate warriors with a
mere hahdful irregular soldiers. The times
have gone by when one white man was
equal to half dozen Indian braves. The
latter are now better mounted and equally
as well armed as the whites, have a supe-
r'or knowledge of the country in which tn, v
ara operating, and therefore in every ca Q
have the army at disadvantage. Until
more regulars than Indians are put into
the field the Indian will continue to be u
