A Private soldier in the United
States Army eceives S13 month,
ratious, medical attendance, full pay
when sick, a pension if disabled,
and Il certain allowance Of clothing
The pay is the same in all branches
OF the service. but the allowance Of
clothing materially differs. Thc
soldier enlists for FIVE years. At the
start he is furnished with a complete
outfit, which is renewed, with the
exception of great~coat, at least
once during tie time he has to serve.
His helmet has to last HIM until the
third year, when he gets another
one. He is given a forage cap an
nually, a uniform coat the first, Sec
ond, and fourth year. three pairs of
trousers the first ard third, and two
pairs the second, fourth, and fifth,
making 10 pairs in all. Eleven
dark blue flannel shirts, 10 under>
shirts, and 10 pairs of drawers
are expected to lat the five years
He las pair of boots, two pairs of
shoes, and five pairs of stockings
each year. Each year ne has a
blouse, and, if he is an engineer or
a mounted man, pair Of overalls.
He has to content himself with q
wooden blanket the first year, and
another the third, and with two rub>
Der blankets, or, if he is mounted
man, rubber ponchos, during the
five years. Fifteen white Berlin
gloves are deemed nece ssary to COW
er his hands each year, rights or
lefts or whichever he may need. If
he is on duty in extremely hot eli
mates he may have cork helmet
instead Of a campaign hat, in his
first and third years, or if he is
where he needs arctic overshoes or
mittens, he is given one pair of the
former in his first and third years
and two pairs of the latter every 70
months.

Col. G. E. DALEY, in well writ
ten article in the Citizen, makes the
following pertinent remarks respect-
ing Delegate to Congress:
"There are doubtless many who
esteem themselves worthy of nom

chine work Of party politics, could
pack convention, mske stamp
speeches. and enthuse an audience
of personal admirers. but what of
all this, when one stanGs before the
congregation of political and legal
giants assembled in the great work
shop OF national law-the c4pitol of
the United StatesY The delegate
there finds himself without a voice
or vote, and that practically he
represents his people only as he
knocks al the doors of cDmmittce
rooms, and in a matter Of fact man.

gaze or popular applause, and where

pie should take good care 10 select
their delegate not to please the man,
but for the good he can do the peo-
pie; not for the purpose of confer

AGENT Wilcox, at San Carlos
has, according 10 the recent sasso,
ciated press dispatch, preferred
charges against Captain Crawford,
who is In charge of the renegade
Indians on the reservation by order
or General Crock. Wilcox charges
Crawford with protecting Indian
murde.ers and horse thieves, under
his authority, from the punishment
which they deserve.
a terrible tale it told in the
bargee, Of how the renegadcs are
permitted to murder each other, or
other Indians, according to their
own ideas and customs, Crawford
even assisting in The operation by
sending out the prisoner to where
he is TO be murdered by members of
his tribe. The long and short of it
is that there is clash between the
Indian Bureau and The military, so
FAR as these Indians are concerned
The clash has long been anticipated,
and tn. only wonder is that it has
not ere this resulted in trouble with
lie Indians themselves. It can
scarcely be possible for two systems
of government to exist on one In
dian reservation without causing
dissatisfaction among the subjects
of that government. In the San
Carlos case, the military system,
contrary to all expectation, has
proved very lax aud reckless, while |
the civil authorities have been strug-
Cling to keep the Indians under
their control in a satisfied and peace
able condition, and have been en-
deavoring TO carry cut The ideas OF
civil government regarding their
control. The result IS dissatisfac-
ION among the peaceful Indians, that
their nelds and their stock are sub
ject to the depredations of All unre
stricted band Of roVers, while they |
are held to account If they attempt
10 retaliate. The reservation H.
iians ienuously objected 10 the
being brought onto the
reservation in the frat place, and
when they were forced upon them,
and then allowed to b, come sort
of freebooters. we can only say that
it is astonishing that the reservation
Indians have not long since given
roub!e. 1t has long been thought
by large majority of the people of
he west and southwest that tie
should have the mana ge~
nent Of Indian affairs. but II the
on San Carlos is q
ample of military skin in that di-
,cction, the less the country has of
/ the better off 1t Will be.
