MT. Lynch, of the Los Angeles Herald, does up MT. Pixley, whose other name is Pigsley, in the following fine style:
 "With sensible men it has al- ways been a wonder how Frank M. Pixley and his Argonaut have ever been tolerated on this coast. To 8 vigorous literary style he adds fine strain of lunacy and he caps both by the vagaries of a tOady and harlequin. The other day his hebdomadal contained an atrOcious attack upon the people of Arizona and a laudation of the murderous Apaches. He abso- lutely ran riot in an insulting gloating over the bloody travail of the long suffering prospectors of the sun-kissed land, The article itself could only have been inspired by an aff1atus which arose from jug of very poor whisky. Pixley would sacrifice anything to a figure of speech, and he would surrender anything that most journalists regard as sacred for a successful entithesis. It is pity that a struggling band of the savages he loves so well cannot fall in with this extraya- gant fellow somewhere in the Chiricahua Mountains.n
The Arizona sentinel., 1885-07-04

The Toronto Globe makes an exhaustive anIysis of the laws and judicial processes of the Dominion uder which Louis Riel, the leader of the half-breed revolt, can be tried. The general conclusion is that he can be tried for treason or murder by any of the three differ ent Courts, each of which has the power to inflict the death sentence with the sign manual of the Governor-General. The only good it will do him to establish his American citizenship wilt be to secure trial by military instead of a civil tribunal. He had better take his chance as subject of the Dominion.

What Shall be Done With Them!

The people of this Territory and
 New Mexico are becoming daily
 more imperative in their demands
 that the Government shall take
 some definite and effective action
 respecting the Apaches. They have borne with present con. ditions until patience is no longer
 virtue. They now say that the
 Apaches must be taken to some safe place and kept there, or that
 they will inaugurate war of ex-
 termination against them The long struggle of Cochise, Victoria, Juh and Geronimo has been for twenty years replete with arson, murder and torture. The most eloquent preacher that ever sought to conjure up before the imagination of his hearers the horrors of the bottomless pil or to paint in lurid colors the counte> nance of the Prince of Evil would fail to make the shuddering im> pression that the single word Apache creates on the mind of the citizen of Arizona and New Mexico. It is not to be wondered at, therefore, that the entire region through which Geronimo and his painted fiends have res gently passed, leaving in their trail the desolation of blood and fire, has risen up as one man and demanded that such horrors shall not be permitted again. It has gone on for years and it is time to put period to such Outrages. For years this warlike tribe has roamed over the plains between the Gila river and the southern boundary of Utah, scattering death and terror in their path> way. They have fought the white man from the time of his first appearance in Mexico to the present day. For centuries they have been implacable enemies of the white race. They will retain the savage animosity of the ancient Aztecs, from whom they probably sprang, and surpass all other Indians in ingenious cruelty. It is certainly the duty of the Government to remove these turbulent spirits or suppress them. They keep the entire border in ferment and regard the reserva- tiOn system with open contempt. Their removal to the Indian Ter. ritory or putting them under surveillance is an inn DprafiUQ poooesifu

The "Arizona Weekly Enter prsse" says that Lieutenant M. J. Jenkins, with B troop of the Fourth cavalry, passed through Florence a week ago last Friday en route to Camp Huachuca, where he will fit up a pack train and start after the Indians. He says a letter from the Secretary of War to the military here says the Indian oatrages have gone far enough and must be stopped at once and forever. This is prob ably why Crook has ordered all troops in the field to return to their respective posts for tbe pur- pose of recognizing.
