Indian. Near Demiux.

The country is full of Indians. The mail carrier between Silver City and Alma, knowing the state of affairs, re- quested an escort and his precaution prove to have been taken none too soon. The carrier and escort were driven in and the mail bags were literally shot to pieces by the Indians. Silver City is thoroughly aroused. Several Indians were seen only short distance north of town and some of them obtained water at Faust's well, which is less than tive miles from the postoffice. It is getting dangerous to go out of town.-Deming Headlight.

LOCAL NOTES.
nh" Capsive's Examination.


 The examination of the captured Apa- che squaw was begun at 10 o'clock yes terday morning before Judge EasIon. Al the hour set for the opening of the case every seat in the county court room was filled with curious and interested specta- tors. The prisoner was brought into court and seemed but little disturbed at the presence of so large number of her pale-faced neighbors. Some little time was lost in discussing the question of interpreter. Finally Deputy Sheriff Chas. Smith was sent to request Mir. John P. Clum to act as interpreter
 Pending the arrival of MT. Cum the trial was begun and Mr. Charlie Crouch was sworn for the territory. Allen R. English Esq. was appointed attorney for the defendant and the territory was re- presented by District Attorney Savage. MT. Crouch identified the defendant as the party whom he and his partner cap tured in the Mule mountains on Dec. 3Ist, 1885, while out hunting for stock that had been stolen from Sandy Bob's ranch. Found her riding horse belong ing to K. Preston. The horse was one that had been stolen from Sandy Bob's ranch.
 Mir. Crouch was upon the witness stand until nearly o'clock. MT. Cum was then sworn as interpreter. He in. formed the court that the prisoner gave her name as Na.dis-ough. The district attorney then substituted this name for that of "Mary Doe" in the proceedings. Yesterday afternoon MT. Cum had quite lengthy interview with the captive in the jail She said she was not a Chiri- cahua Indian but belonged to the Coyo- tero or White Mountain tribe. The party of renegades she was with was the same party that made an attack on the reservation Indians about mouth ago. In that fight eleven men and five women were killed, and two other women-her- self and boy were taken captives. They were told they would be instantly killed and the heads cut off if they made any resistance or ever attempted to escape. She thought they had been about forty days on the trail. The night before she was captured by Crouch and party she managed to get behind the raiding party soon after they had crossed the Bisbee road at the west end of the Mule noun. tains. The Indians were travelling as rapidly as possible. As soon as she got to the rear of the party she turned off from the trail towards the west and rode rapidly away in the dark. She finally turned eastward and passedthe remainder of the night in the Mule mountains, south of the Bisbee road. The next day she wandered about in the canyon and finally followed the direction of the road and was near ranch when captured by the Americans. She said that this had been her first chance to escape from the rene gades and her object was to get back to the reservation where her people are.

vidual landlords than that sort made
up Of heartless and soulless corpora

for half century about the great
evils Of lsndlordism in Ireland and
England, and meantime the landlords
are coming over here in corporation
form and investing in our own coil
directly and indirectly the earn

When the spread OF population
causes much Of this foreign held land
to become valuable, what is to pre-
vent these foreign landlords running
whole villages, and even towns, and
exacting extortionate rents from hard.
working farmers? 1t looks as il the
rackrent Irish system was to be re-
peated upon our own soil. Perhaps
the reader says that American citi-
zens will resist, they will never sub
NIT to the yoke that has 30 long been
riveted around Irish necks. Suppose
their resistance be successful, at what
price would success be bought Vio-
lence and bloodshed. Shall we allow
a system TO continue that has such
consequences before it? BY attention
to the matter now we may save untold
evil and suffering in the future. In
the struggle that would, in the end,
follow the corporate landlord system,

THE ELECTION TODAY.

Argument is over. The time for
action has ar ived. Six weeks have
been spent in earnest preparation, aud
the great battle is to be fought today.
The blacks and the whites, the vsgrant
and the taxpayer meet at the polls to-
day. How shall the contest end ?
Just as the Democrats elect will the
election result. They have the ma
jority, and il they will exercise it as
they have done for the past sixteen
years, a glorious victory will be
achieved. Then let all work today
with that energy and enthusiasm
which haEe carried the August cleo
tions for sixteen years. Men who
would willingly restore The dreadful
past the negro rule that prevailed
when the taxpsying whites
were DISTINGUISHED have their
forces marshaled today. They must
not b. allowed to succeed. Every
Democrat who fails to do his duty by
not voting, helps the Republicans.
He gives aid and comfort to the enc
my. We must carry the county by a
rousing majority. II those who op.
pose negro rule and favor white su'
premacy, will do their duty, the vic
tory viii DO overwhelming. II the
Republican ticket succeeds there will
be no less than half a dozen negroes
al the Courthouse as officials, deputies
and assistants. To secure this object
the negroes are united in compact,
sold mass on the color line. Such a
spectacle should arouse every man in
whose veins flows the warm blood Of
the Caucaiiao, and in whose heart
throbs the genuine love for the white
race. Every Democrat should feel
that the election depends on his indi-
vidusl work, and not only vote
but work for the ticket and thus aid
in electing 1t by a majority that will
be decisive and crushing. There is no
excuse for indifference, for the ticket
has the Endorsement OF public senti-
ment. The business men OF the city
are undivided in its support, and Its
SUCCESS at the ballot box today de-
ponds on the individual efforts Of those
who know it ought to be elected.

THE MEXICAN TROUBLE.

PONED BY THE AUTHORITIES.
A Statement Of the Causes Leading
Up to the Difficulty-ihe
Bone Of Contention.

Ell PAso, TEX, August 4.-The trial
of Cutting, set for this morning, was
again postponed until tomorrow. The
Associated Press news this morning
has prod uCed general confidence in the
general government at Washington,
and everyone here ava is with anxiety
the action OF the House upon the Gut
ting resolutions. The recent mass
meetings here lacked harmony and
were calculated to arouse the anger
Of the Mexicaus across the river,
and in fact some If the speakers
caused our Mexican neighbors TO fear
mob force for the purpose OF liberatiDg
Cutting OF coutse, no such fear is
we'll grounded as yet. 1t is rumo! ed
that Cutting will receive a heavy sem
tence and that President Daz will at
once pardon HIM and give him his
liberty. Strange things are done
in Mexico. AS strange as this
rumor might sound, it might
turn out true, for good Mexican
lawyers in Paso del Norte, and even
Judge Nichols Ignio has 80 expressed
himself. Thus they admit that the
Federal Government of Mexico can
not interfere in the State courts Of
chihuahua, but can pardon State con-
