Sidney R. Long, Post Trader at Fort
Bowie, Gen. Crooks headquarters, is
an apolOgist through the San Francis
co Chronicle, of the oath ult., for
Crooks inability to master the Chiri-
cahuas. We are Aot surprised at De
Longs version of Crooks failures
His position as post trader is depen-
dent upon Crook, and if statements
made by him were not complimentary
be would, at once, cease to occupy
that position. Crook'5 management
of the Indians is so well understood in
Arizona, New Mexico and Sonora,
that any statement De Long might
make, situated as he is, would mot car
ry much weight, nor change public
opinion. People who have and are
still suffering from Crooks failures to
afford relief from raiding Indians,
look to results, count uswly made
graves Of citizens and enumerate their
loss in horses, cattle and desolated
ranches and are not influenced by
statements of apologists who place the
truth in masquerade.

To RE aIsgERED Our.


The st, Louis Globe-Demoerat asks
that the Missouri militia, of whom
Fred Medier and ourself were two Of
that spartan band, should be mustered
out. The army joined us nearly twen9
ty.four years ago, and we are still
doing duty, and during the whole of
that time have had neither pay, ra-
tions or clothing from the govern
meat, nor did we even receive bob
tail discharge, We were simply turned
loose to provide for ourself, and that
too without having been breveted or
our name recorded in the Army and
Navy Register as entitled to fayora-
bic mention for gallant services in the
field. You who have seen service and
have had the blast of war blown into
your ears, and have heard the inSpir.
iting cry, 'Once more into the breach
dear friends! Once morer and for I'M.
itating the ferocity of the tiger have
been carried to the rear on a stretch
er, will know how it is yourself to te
thus treated by a government who
professed to regard the Missouri
militia as the savior of the Republic
when in the throes of dissolution.
Such treatment should be borne in re-
membrance during the flight of never
ending time, unless, indeed, in this
monumental age a reminder, as en-
during as brass, should be erected to
the memory of the drum major of the
immortal 10th, who lost his life in the
service fran bilious fever, superin-
duced by the nsuseating smell Of
powder and the indigestible character
of army rations.
This proposition is thrown out as
Hobs0n's choice to the government to
build the monument or be forever
damned. Were it not for present
pressing demands upon the Treasury
for monuments, we would ask that
suitably inscribed tablet be placed
upon the grave of every member of
the Missouri militia who have died
since the war, to cost, for each memo
rial slab, not less than a million, and
place them within the city of New
York aud station a detail of one COM
pany Of regulars" as a guard for each
slab to prevent vandal hands from
defacing them.

MaHL CONTRACTS.

So Ear as revealed, the Letting of
contracts for carrying mails in Arizo-
ma has not resulted IN payment Of suf.
fcient sums to insure their being car
ried with promptness aud CELEBRITY.
This arises from the fact that bidders
were aware of the disposition of the
PostofHce Department to discriminate
against the South and West on the
ground of supposed illiteracy of resi-
dents in those sections, and deeming
the supply of patent oiliee reports and
patent medicine almanacs furnished
gratis, by express or otherwise, quite
sufficient to engage the minds Of the
literati of those terra inCognitos, With
out afording usual mail facilities and
thus enabling the government to bet
ter Accommodate other sections Of the
United States where the light of in
telligence is dazzlingly eifulgent.
W. NJ. Griffith was awarded the line
from Casa Grande to Florence; H.
Wardsworth from Florence to KING
mine; 0. j. Salisbury from Florence
to Globe, and also from Globe to Pay
son. This latter route is about $50
miles, and for ffty-two weekly trips
the contractor win receive $3.50 for
carrying the mail 1920 miles, over
road less passable than the historically
Appian way.
The bid for carrying mail from
Phoenix, via WiekenJQrg, to Prescott,
three times week, was not consid-
cred, but a re,letting ordered reducing
trips to twice a week. Casa Grande
and Pima Agency service was also re-
duced one-third.

The editor ofrhe BEbr acknowledges
the receipt Of an invitation from Thos,
Gates, Chairman Of the Democratic
Territorial Central Committee, to at.
tend a meeting Of the Executive Com
mittee in Tucson, On the 10th instant,
Owing to the distance aud inconven-
ienceof stage travel, we are necessarily
obliged to decline the polite request
In the consideration of the impor-
.tant business to come before tho COM
.mittee It is TO be hoped that the strong
individuality of Democratic principles
win not be lost sight OF, but adhered
to in order to acquire additional ele-
ments Of strength, not forgetting that
the aggregation and primary discipline
Of the party, Is in the observance and
maintenance Of the civil law which,
we are sorry to say, does not always
obtain in Arizona where nights acqui-
eseed in when overriding right, rather
than raise a conflict Of authority.
Such usurpations should not be con.
doned but severely rebuked by the
representative men of all parties and
particularly by their regularly con-
stituted committees.
If such is the object of the meeting
it wlll exert a salutary influence upon
the destiny of the party, and compel
the most influential Of the party to
bow tojustiee aud right; raising the
lowest to an equal share in its po-
htieal privileges and prove a vigorous
incentive to protection from assaults
of designing politicians from without,
who use the party as stepping-stone
to political preferment

CONSERVATION prevails among ship

On March I'd the President sent a
message to the Senate on the Chinese
question, He says the condition Of the
Chinese in the Western states and ter
ritories is far from being satisfactory.
All the power of the government
should be exerted to maintain good
faith toward China in the treatment
of these men; the infexiblu sternness
of the law in Bringing wrong doers to
justice should be insisted upon.
Every effort has been made by the
government to prevent violent out
breaks and the President is prepared
to give earnest consideration to any
further remedial measures within the
treaty limits, which the wisdom Of

That cOntaminating and foreign ele-

Fred Plaisted, the oarsman, says
that the proposition Of himself and
Wallace Ross to row through the Nj
agara rapids the coming summer was
not huge joke, as many seemed to
think, but an enterprise that would
surely be attempted. Il do not think
it dangerous" he said. "The boat

for floor, and no bottom. If we Gil
with water we cannot sink, because
we will have air-tight compartments
around the boat, and the water we
take in win quickly disappear through
the grating, II anything should hap
pen, we are beth good swimmers and
would make a grand struggle before
going under. Ii will be money in our
pockets if it is a success, and if we fail
our wives and children will get the
benefit Of it. There is positively less
danger in trying to row through the
rapids than there Is going out on the
frontier for SIS a month and found,
and we get $500 for what we are

that We row with our faces toward
the danger, instead of rowing in the
ordinary way. We were both mp at

IL is said at the War Department
that there are not likely to be any ap-
polntmeuts made to fiji any of the ex-
isting yaucancies in the army, high or
low, until the 10th of March, when
Gen. Pope goes on the retired list.
Then two Major-Generals will be
selected and the other consequent ap-
pointments be made. The President
is disposed to give Gen. Terry precc-
dence as a Major-General over Gen.
Howard, provided he can do SO with
out doing any injustice to Gen. How
ard. He is receiving a great many ap-
plications from olergymeu for the
three chaplaincies which he is going
to fill, and here is also a great pres
sure for the position Of Judge-Adyo-
cate with Majors rank and pay,
which is open.
