Gen. Crook was guided by AN Apache named
lladaski who was captured mean san Carlos Just
previous to the expeditions departure Al a
point about 200 miles south of the line, the com
mand crossed thd Sierra Madrc ranges and adj
vanced fifty miles over an mdcscribabv rough
trail eight mules being killed by falling over
preclpices. They marched without DELAY The
men were rendered almost bare foot by shaIp
rocks. After fourteen days of hard marching
day and night, the Indian camps Of Chatoa and
Bonito, were discovered in the heart of the
Sierra Madres, IN an almost impregnable posi-
ton The Apaches did not dream OF attack for
entrance to their stronghold was next to impos-
sIble, and the warriors were principally out on a
raid under Juh, only thirty seven bucks beng in
camp with the women and children. The San
Carlos scouts surrounded the camp before the
hostlles were aware of their proximity. They
advanced from different points and the scouts
secreted themselves behind rocks and com
menced hrng upon the camp creating perfect
panic. A number succeeded in escaping though
nearly all surrendered. Seven were found dead
in the camp, and five Mexican women and "A
little girl were recapturcd. They were taken
from Carmen and Chihuahua, and are now with
General Crook in good health Everything in the
camp was burned or carried off by the scouts
Among the property captured were 100 ponies
and mules, forty being loaded with plumber, sad
dies, grdles and clothes, gold and silver watches,
and several thousand dollars of gold and silver
and greenbacks, showing that they had been
very successful in their raids

1t was at one time surmised that the
Florida Ship Canal scheme covered an ul-
terror political purpose which explained
the connection Herewith Of Malone and
some other questionable associates 1t
was suggested that sufficient number of
thousands of diggcrs would be imported
from other States in time to become emit
tied to votes, and thus carry the State
for the Republicans in 1884. To push
such work rapidly by hand power not
much less than ten thousand men would
have to be employed, as upon the Suez
and Darien canals. These, you see, could
be enlisted under an obligation to vote
as ordered by General Malone command
ing, under penalty of withholding bal
ance Of pay, or something Of the sort !;

misery. Now, however, we have reason
to hope that the Democracy Of Florida
are not to be assailed, tormented and
routed in this wretchedly underhanded
way, for it is stated that arrangements
have been made to secure two powerful
dredges, already built in Philadelphia for
the Panama Ship Canal, and costing $780,
600 each, which will be put in operation
as soon as the work is commenced. Each

How the Democrats Can Win in "a

From the Boston Herald
Courage and assurance count for good deal
i'll political contest for, if the Democrats advo-
Gated tariff reform with one half the holiness
that the Republicans display in theiI defence of
protection, they would carry the county over
whclmingly in their favor in the next national
election
From the Boston Post
The Democratic papers which maintain that
the tariff must not shall not and cannot be in is
sue next year, are simply beating tom toms to
make up for their lack Of good reasons for such
a course. On the contrary, the tariff must and
shall be an issue, not because we or others have
said it, but because its momentum is now
sufficient to force recognition and consideration
From the Detroit Free Press
That those Democrats who shrink from the
raising OF the tariff issue are mistaken, cannot
be doubted by any intelligent person who will
consider the signs OF the times The evidence
afforded by the Congressional elections of last
fall was very significant, in this State particularly
1t to the open advocacy of tariff reform
and bold dcnunciation of protection abuses that
the opponents of the party in power were mainly
indebted for the change of a solid Republican

an anti Republican majority This result, in
State which has its full share of the protected
industries, speaks volumes as to the strength OF
the feeling in favor of tariff REFORM and the pol
icy-to put it on no higher basis-of the Democ-
racy taking advanced ground on that question:
if the gain made is to be retained. There is
more to be feared for the Democracy in the con-
test of next year from q failure to hold the free
trade portion, called, of the party than from
the loss OF its proectionist element. The num-
Der OF Democrats to whom Democracy means
little or nothing except as antagOnism 10 tariff
oppression and the monopoes which are nscr-
arably connected Herewith is large and incrcas

support of Democratic candidates. With that
issue evadcd, obscured and trfcd with they
cannot be SO counted on, especially if the issue
is raised in an aggressive form by any party

Another EIeveIn a.

The Republican leaders manifest great ,le.
of curiosity, not unmiXed with anxiety, rs
TO whom the Democrats will make their candi-
date for President next year. Many of the DEM
ocratic leaders appear to feel solicilu,lt on the
same subject
As the next Democratic candidate will in all
probability be the next President, these feelings
are natural
The problem is puzzlins one on account OF
the peculiar position of the several regulation
candidates. The Republicans insist that the old
ticket of Tilden and Hendricks will be nomi-
mated or that MIR. Mcdonald will be the nomi,
nee This is taking the two extremes But as
the Republican leaders will not have much to
say in the Democratic Convention they may be
regarded as unreliable prophets

have lost ground through rivalries and other OBJ
