purpose Tn putting down the unfortu.
 nate raid of the hostiles. We believe
 he has committed errors of judgment. and realize that his errors have cost many innocent lives and much valuable property m ArI2ona, but We cannot con- demn hIm as a traitor for his failure to accomplish impossibilitIes. It was no fault of General Crook that Geronimo and his followers refused to come into our lines after the recent parley'at Fun nel canon. The willy chief was very careful not to put himself ID any dau- ger of capture, and the barley was hut the result of his desire to obtain such favorable personal terms of surrender us would exempt hIm from punishment. These, of course, General Crook could not give, and upon mature considera- tion rather than take any chances, the old fiend persuaded enough others to join hlm to continue the rad. General Crook never had Geronimo ID his power during the present outbreak, but he had reason to hope for his uncondI- tionsl surrender nt Funnel cafion, and indeed obtained hIs promise to come to Fort Bowie. The obstacles to the sue cessiul pursuit of these agile and cum ming savages are not understood by the people who have never come in contact with the conditions favoring the hos tiles. The Glo5e-Democrat knows but little of the wonderful agiiity, endur- ance and miraculolsly stealthy charac. teristics of the Apaches Gnd can form no idea of the difficulties in the wsy of their capture. We have confidence in tue policy of General Miles, and believe he will so thoroughly harass and tire the fugitives out, even if he does not surprise and kill them, that they wlll soon be forced to surrender or seek safety fur ther to the south. It is task requir- ing time, patience, nerve, endurance and most tireless activity, but It is not i'm possible. General Crook WAS simply mistaken in his methods, and General Miles IS proftIng by his example and will avoid the fatal errors of his pre- decessOT.

THE orders of General Miles to his troops in the field, to get Indians, are producing a refreshingly new aspect ln- the pursuit of the hostiies. The troops who have camped on hot trails and around water holes for a whole year while murders have been committed upon every side, are now inspired by the energy of the new commander and are exhibiting heroism III the unre- straIned pursuit which IS worthy of the greatest praise. Two recent fights with the Indians have shown how utterly puerile were the whimpering words, ''It is impossile to overtake the ho5ti!es. The troops have twice overtaken them and twice have they depleted their Dum- bers. They are now in close pursuit and We will not be at all surprised II the utter annIhilation Of the hostile band is compassed within few weeks. The Indians are not accustomed to the har- assing attacks they have experienced during the past few weeks, and they are flying from the wrath of the strong mill tary arm, pursued us tuGitives, with scarcely a hope of reaching place of security. There have been results nl- ready in this brief campaign by General Miles, and the Indians are imbibIng fear and terror of theIr new master. They know and understand the mighty logic Of force, aLd the terrible intiIcnon of the tireless chase and the merciless con- flict now inaugursted against them will not only make the few possible survi- vors craven supplicants for clemency at the feet of their conqueror, but the les son will have salutary effect upon those who have been almost persuaded to join the Eostiles. and they will relapse into the ,innocuous desuetude of piping peace.

 IT IS stated that President Cleveland has concluded to abandon hls civil ser wee humbug and will regard partisan utilization more than individual quslifica- tIon in making appointments and ID ro- tsining present Incumbents.

We can even look with complace1cy upon the polti cal buzz saw of the Territory engaged in its process or official decapitation, SO long as 1t does not wantonly and ma lciously mutilRte the corpee. As a der nier resort, and purely m self-defense, other than mere partisan charges are admissible, but the democratic party cannot afford to causelessly trRmDle down individual character to obtain that which can be had for the asking. It is too much like the pollcy of the highwsyman.

THE government of the United States will probably indemnify the Chinese sufferers In the Rock Springs, Wyoming, massacre by q mob of foreigners, for all the losses sustained by them. In the meantime the claims of Ari .ona citizens for losses sustained through the recur- rIng hostile raids by the wards of the gov ernment. are growing yellow with age in the pigeon holes at Washington. The in- ference naturally drawn from these facts IS that a Chinsman is regarded as worthy of more distinguished considera- ton by the administration, than an AnarIcan citizen.
