be more clearly and directly fixed upon Gen. Crook than he himselfhas recorded it in his official report. This time the general complains in his report that the agent did not concur heartily in all the methods employed by the military but the methods were employd all the same, as the agent had no authority beyond registering his disapproval. The general has also discovered that there was some correspondence, both private and official, between the agent and the Interior department which criticized the Crook policy. Tue. agents disapproval and the correspondence above referred to, appear to have been the influences which SO strongly demoralized the military that their "prisoners" slipped aAay from them without their knowing about It, and therefore the interior department, and not Gen. Crook, must shoulder thd responsibility. Bah! Gen. Crook il clearly responsible, and the preparation} made by the military to prevent th} "exodus" of Geronimo and his band lasI May proved as effectual as have the sub, sequent preparations for the re-capturel and punishment of these same cut-throat
 prisoners"

doing all in my power to serve them in common with all of the people of the territory that have not stigmatized them or any of our people as lawless, but have with full knowledge of their devotion to law and order, asked them to "discontenance the inAamatory appeals made to their passions and prcjudices by evil disposed persons" The article in the Prescott Courier, which is mailed you, is fair and frank statement of the causes for the proclamation. Thanking you for your kind letter and the spirit which induced it, and apologizing for this nasty pencil scrawl, remain sicere'y kyours, C. MEYER ZULICK

GOVERNOR zuLlcK in his letter to the

GOVERNOR ZULicK in his letter to the ESiTAPH speaks like man in his reference to the citizens of this section. Whilst we cannot but commend such language, knowing full well it's truth, yet it will take Governor Zulick many months to regain the kind feeling which was at one time entertained for him in this county. The EPITAPH is ot the opinion that hls error, which is a mild name for the proclamation, was far more an error of judgment than disposition to do our people wrong.

IT has been persistently maintained by military authorities and others that Gen.
 Crook was not responsible for the Indian outbreak last spring, and yet the follow ing is the first sentence iR the second paragraph of Gen. Crooks recent an
 nual report. "On the evening of the I7th of May, received telegram from
 Capt. Pierce, in charge of the police con-
 uol of the White Mountain reservation, repeating substance a dispatch from Lieut.. Britton Davis, Third cavalry, who was in immediate charge of the Chiri. hua drisoners, stating that Geronimo and Mangus, with party of ther following, were making preparations to leave the reservation. and giving details of pre-. para,ions which had been made to pre- vent the exodus" Here wchave captain charged with the police control of the entire reservation, and lieutenant in immediate charge of the "Chiricahua prisoners" Both officers were acting under the immediate instructions of Gen. Crook and both reported direct to him for orders. Lieut.. Davis was stationed al Fort Apache, which is sixty miles from the San Ca,los agency. The threatening X .irude of Geronimo and Mangus was not reported to the agent nor to the ln- ,erior department, but to Gen. Crook. The authority and means to present the exodus" was vested in the military and ud in .he agent. Gen. Crook still con. sdered these renegade Chiricahuas ,s Eprisoners," and had an officer detailed in special charge ofthese prisoners. The responsibility sf the outbreak could not

Chopin as a Boy.

Chopin, alone of all the musicians. has been immortalizcd through his pianoforte music. If all the works that have ever been written for the piano were to be swept away, his compositions would of themselves inspire one through all the drudgery that is necessary to master the instrument
 Frederic Chopin was born on March 1, 1909, at little village near Warsaw. The child's genius was apparent in his earliest years; when scarcely more than a baby, he was so sensitive that he wept on hearing music; and he began to compose before he was old enough to write out the notes. He was placed under the tuition of Albert Zwyny, who was delighted with his little pupils pro- gress, and in his ninth year he gave his first concert. Frederic was generally full of high spirits, and often amused himself by playing little practical jokes, sometimes being joined by his sister Emily. This sister gave as rare promise of being great in literature as Frederic in music, but, unfortunately, she died when only young girl.
 Chopin had talent for seizing the ludicrous and placing it on paper; and his power of caricaturing on the piano was much like Schumann's. It is said that once, when his fathers pupils were becoming very boisterous, Chopin en. tened the room and seated himself at the piano. He initiated band of rob- bers breaking into house, their escape, and retreat to the woods; as tho music grew fainter the pupils became drowsisr until they were all fast asleep--M Nicholas.

 l have heretofore notified you that l own three-6fths of the surface ground of the Way Up mine. l now notify you that l claim no right to said ground against any one who has been in posses sion of lot or lots thereon for five years, as l think the five years statute of limita- tion commenced to run on September P, 1880, when the patent to the town site issued.

 But, as to all of the lots on said Way Up mine now vacant or unoccupied, or that have lately been settled on or bought from the townsite claimants, or claimants under the Way Up mine, will assert my rights, but will sell at a reasonable price, reserving my right to refuse to sell to any one who, by purchasing lots as aforesaid from other claimants and pay ing for more than two-hfths thereof : has indentifed himself with the frauds. N. B. The two-fifths interest Tn said Way Up surface which 1 do not own or claim, does not belong to any one in Tombstone, as near as can find out by the records ofthe county.

NOTWITHSTANDING the assertions of our little neighbor, the EPITAPH has never receded from its first position in reference to the proclamation of Gov. Zulick. We denounced it then and we denounce it now. We shall continue to denounce any instrument of like charac. ter. The EPITAPH shall in the future as in the past labor faithfully and concien- tiously for the prosperity of Arizona, and any man or set of men whom we con. slider are endeavoring to blacken the fair name of our people shall receive con. demnation at our hands. The EPITAPH is Republican journal, our best efforts will be given in the support of that party, but at the same time we will deal fairly by our political opponents. We do not criticise Governor Zulick because he is a democrat, but for the reason of the in. justice he has done to the citizens of this territory. If Governor Zulick had dir ected hls remarkable proclamation to the democratic press of the territory he would, at least we think, had some provocation and possibly an excuse for its issuance. The Tucson Star and the Florence Enterprise are both bull. works of that faith. They both foolishly advocated an attack upon San Carlos, and it must be acknowledged used Ian. guage unbecoming journals having the best interests of the territory at heart. The Star under date of Nov. i5th, says:
 "Let the whites break out once again and teach the Apache in the Apache's home, on the San Carlos res. e.va,ion, that the whites can kill and slay as wall as the Apaches. Let the whites inAict death upon the Apache in his Lome under the Very eyes of the gsv. ernnent officials.
 "The Territorial Enterprise of No. vember 18th, contained the following: The sooner we recognize the fact the sooner will the Indian question here be settled and the prosperity of the territory be Assuled. There are enough young m-n and sinsle men in Arzona to blot out the Apache tribe if they will only go obout it drterminedly. Let the single mea organ ze and make the fight. They have no one depending upon them and can afford to risk their lives in the good cause. Count us in.'"
 Whilst we do not consider the above articles of sufficient importance for the issuance of the Governors proclamation, Yet their effect could not be otherwise than bad.

PRESCOTT, A. T., Jan. I.-Governol Zulick telegraphed the secretary of lhd interior yesterday in reference to bogus associated press dispatch, that he had called troops to protect Intians on ,hs San Carlos reservation, in which he says; "I never framed or forwarded such :, message, my only appeal to the govern1 ment for troops has been to protect ths lives and property of Arizonans, from attacks of the murderous and thisvind Apaches. No people on earth have exhibited higher sense of law-abidind qualities than Arizonans have dur| ing the past eight months. It is
 pround duty again perform in attestin it. What we want is protection fol white men, women and children ol Arizona. In reply, he to-day received al assurance that no such dispatch as thd one alluded to, had been received i'd Washington; that no orders had been given to concentrate troops at San Car los or in the neighborhood; that it was the Intention of the government in send- ing additional troops to protect all law, abiding, peaceful citizens in their righgl1 of personal property, and that the put blication of such incendary dispatch, by the press is depreciated here as tel
 ing to thwart the purposes and effort!

TNES(Oll, bcC. Z9, 1905. JOHN O. DUNBAR, EDITOR EPITAPH:
 My Dear Sir Your kind favor of thj 10th inst. is just at hand, and hasten td reply. You say the conclusions reached "by our people is that you regard the citizens of this section as outlaws and ready to aid any movement having foI its object the destruction of the Sad Carlos reservation and the Indians therel on." Such conclusion is not deduciblj from the language of the proclamation and certainly not from my knowledge ol the people of Cochise. personally know many of them, have been theiA neighbor, and more law.abiding, self, sacrificing, intelligent and honorablc| people don't live. Why sh ,uld l lbe| them, or any of the good people of thi ] territory who have ever been kind and considerate to me. had no such inten- tion, and have not done so. My procla- nation refers to evil "disposed persons" |" "who make inaamatory appeals to the passions and prejudice of the people of the territory" Do not ask "our citizens to guard the good name of the territory by discouraging wha,f "Incitemen, to unlawful deeds" The territory has good name, its people are law-abiding and is because of that fact, and that great harm was being done it and them by the publication of libelous articles by indiscret newspapers agitating an attack upon San Carlos, which were being cir culated and republished in the east to the detriment and prosperity of our territory, and the interference with the plans to give rellefto our afflicted people from the curse of hostile Apache ravages that felt called upon to appeal to the citizens to frown down these incendiary appeals. This is the head and front of my offend ing. It was to protect the good name of our people-that were being outraged by such acts that l addressed them; had confidence in the law-abding spirit of the people of Arizona, and have put myself on record with the government and the country strong and often attest ing to this fact. l was obliged to notice hese incendiary appeals of----, evi 1 lesposed person, which were detriment o the territory. These seems to be a studied effort to misrepresent me and ny motives; while writing this l am handed the San Francisco papers which contain a telegraph, said to em,nate from that l have called for roops to protect San Carlos reservation, which is false; have never asked for roops for any other purpose, than to protect the lives and property of the whites against the savage barbarity of he murderous Apache, and the troops re ordered only for that purpose-you an assure the people of Cochise. am
