Think Of that little shivering band clustered
on the bitter edge Of the continent. with the
future before them almost as dark as the
forest behind them, many Of them with such
long lines of happy memories In Old England
flashing across the sen into the gloom of their
present position like CLEANS Of ruddy freight
that stream far out of the cheerful chimney
into the cold winter highland think Of the
same festival now, when our govern
ors and our president invite millions Of
people to return thanks 70 the great giver OF
harvests; and the millions Of people obeying
sacrifice hecatombs of turkeys and pumpkins
and pour out seas Of cider and harmless wine.

THE APACHES
Scattering Death and Destruction Through Southeastern Ari-
 z0na and Sonora.

The dispatches received from the vicinity of Bowie and Nogales, show that Geronimo and his band of fiendS have started out upon another bloody raid. It is estimated that fifty massa- cres, principally families of ranch men on the borders, both in the Uni ted States and Mexico, have occurred since the surrender of the department by General Crook to General Miles. It IS authoritiveIy announced that Geronimo and his band are heading for the north and that they will pass up into the Mogollons and the La drones in few days, If not ow rtaken by the troops. A large number of murders have been reported since the foregoing was written, and with deep regret we learn that among the many victims of these hellish fcnds, are Hank Hewlt and Frank Bartlett, for merly welI.known army packers, but lattery horse. breeders on the Bear Valley ranch, thirty miles northwes, of Nogales. These two gentlemen will be remembered by the old resi- dents ot Prescott, as they were sta toned at Whipple for a long time, having large packing contract with the Government.
 This looks as if the raids of Gcro- nimo and band instead of decreasing are increasing, and the people of that ill lted country arc being butchered without the first show of protection. General Miles has now an oPportuni- ty to exhibit that wonderful military pOweress and skill which has been at ttibuted to him by some of the news papers in Southern Arizona. Ills military record has been lauded to the skies and we now hope to sec his actions bear out the endorsements that he has received from the press.

THE attention of those who have thought that our Delegate in Con- gress, Col. C. C. Bean, was asleep at Washington, and doing but little if anything for the benefit of our Terri tory, is called to the following spec ial dispatch from Washington;
 "ln explanation of the joint reso- lution which vas introduced by Dele gate Bean, Of Arizona, authorizing the president to offer reward of Sa5, ,ooo for the killing or the capture of the Apache renegade, Geronimo, he'states that Geronimo left the White Mountain reservation, accompanied by sixty bucks, about year ago, and since that he has raided section of nearly 10000 square miles in New Mexico, lower Arizona ,and northern Mexico. During that time nearly one fifth Of the United States army has been fruitless in their pursuit, while some 800 people have already been killed. The value of property destroyed cannot be estimated. In the interest of economy and humani- y, it becomes necessary 10 kill or capture this biood.thlrsty and crafty Indian, and in MT. Beans opinion, the quickest and surest method is to offer sufficient inducement for noun
