within the party a strong sentiment m favor oi his sl-cSiled reform policy. The Tribune hupes that he will suc- ceed, but warns hIm that it is q tremen- dous unde,taking, since the Democratic party has the same affinity Tor a re- fnrIler thnt rabid dog has for water. But he certainly deserves the best wish es and hearty aympatbies of all patriot Americans if, in addition to completing the education of bis party in ;he civil servce. he aims b reform the habits of the Democratic press and 10 prevent ih7 recurrence of so discreiitable g cam paign O, defamation ss that by winch he himself has proited.'
 l. IS evident, however, that Mr. Cleveland did not intend such Q s~esP- ing scope to hls charge. The letter to Mir. keppler was to5 hastily written, while be was lrTitsied and indignant at the misstatement. MT Cleveland has reason to know that most ot tine news papers honestly aim to be strictly truth ful, as well from principle, as through policy, and We have no doubt but hls sober second thoughts cause him 10 re- gret having been himself equally guilty with the press whom he desounces, oi gross Ie1aggeration and misrepreseatE' ton.

THE news that General Crook Is to be superseded by General Miles in com mand of the Department of ArIzona. was received by the people with a eense of relief and n feeling of pity. There is not a man in Arizona who rejoices be- cause success has not crowned his ef- forts to subdue the savages. There is no question but he has acted cOnscien- tionsly and to the best Of his ability to conquer the hostiles, and his mistakes, though grieyous and irreparsble, were errcrs of judgment. He has been mis- led by the treGchery and hypocrisy of his cunning allies and thousand confus- ing obstacles have contributed to his want of success. The people realize the difficulties besetting his lsbors and while they welcome 8 charge in commanders 6s necessitating Q change ln ihe policy of the campaign, they deeply regre, that theIr old-time friend has not added new lBurels to his fame as gu Indian fighter and that he retires under the shadows of misfortune. We hope the wisdom of the change will justify the hope and faith it has inspired.

NEW YORK TRIBUNE: The wrath of the residents Of Arizona must be immensely deeper than has Eenesally bsen sup posed, or the Goyernofs proclamation directing the people to keep the peace would not have been issued. Only 8 desperately strained situation would have called it forth. Yet there is but one way to look al this matter. Fright. fully as the white settlers of the Terri tory have suffered at tue hands Of the murderous Apaches, they ought still 10 be able to see that to ut;ac6 tine mem- bers of the tribe who have renamed oD the reservation would be both wicked and foolish. Ths peaceful Indians are net to blame for the outrsges of their former companions; and # they were attacked a general uprising on the other reservations might easily ensue. The Governor and the Federal authorities would certainly be justified in tie se- were measures which they threaten if any attempt on the quiet Apsehes were really begun.

TIE new governor of Arizona has conceived it to be his duty to advise the District Attorney of Cochise county how to prosecute a criminal He has now centered his attention on the captive Apache squaw, and proclaims that she "sbould be promptly confined n the county jail. and proceeded against wig Orously according to law, which recog
 nizes no distinction of race or sex, for crime" The governor now has foeman worthy of his steel. He can sit proudly astride his proclamation Rossn- ante and gallantly charge on the Apache windmill without doing any great amount of damage 10 any one. His peculiar edict to the district attorney Of Cochise county, however. exhibits an apprehension lest the jocular threat Of the Tombstone boys to make the gov eYnor a present of the captive squRw will be carried into effect. He might ex- pertinent upon her with bis new faugled policy and possibly achieve results that will bring him a fame equal to Pasteur's.

Gov. ZULICK has taken especial pains to procure an cficial denial from Wash ington that he callei Tor troops to pro- tect the J1d4ans at San Carlos, and we ssre constrained to believe that he did not order them for that purpose, in express terms. The inference, however, could not be mistaken. His alarming procla- nation was fresh before the authorities, and a telegram upon its heels asking for troops without giving further reasons, could lead to no other conclusion than that they were needed tO suppress the threatened attack by the lGwless ele- ment on the Indian reservation as set forth in the proclamation. He pos sesseI no authority to request troops for General Crook, and such an assumption would have been promptly rebuked by an official reprimand. He could only exercise an authority over :he civil mat ters of the Territory, and his call for troops taken in connection with his sense less proclamstion,c can leave no other on- struction on the act save that given by the Washington telegram.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND, while smart
 irg under the annoyance ocoasioned by
 a misc0nsturctiou or rather misstate
 nent regarding bis relations with MT
 seph KeDpler, Of New York, wrote tc
 that gentleman gs follows:
 I don't think there ever was a time
 when newspaper lyIng was so general
 and so mean as at present, and there
 never was a country under the SUI
 where 1t lourIsbed as IL does In tEIs
 The faisehOOds daIly spread before the
 people III our newspapers, whllo they are proofs of the mental ingenuity of those engaged m newspaper work, are insults tO the American love for deceDcy aud fair play, of which We boast. . While I am sorry that any frienali ness you may have felt or exhiJit,sd for me has been the cause of embsTrass- ment to you, 1 cannot refrain from say ing that If you ever become G subject Of newspaper lying, and attempt to run down and expose such ies, you will be busy man, if you attempt nothing else.
 The New York Sun, journal that seems to ably fill the Irishman's Idea of politics, being always "iernist the gov ernment," prints the letter in full and gives the chiei executive a round lec- lure for his sweeping denunciation o' the press. The Tribune also deyotes considerable attention to the subject aud warns up to condition approach iEg campaign fervor. Indeed, it Cives an unpleasant retrospect and ingenious ly uses bis charges ss weapon to deal the Democratic press hard blow.
 It says: "The President must be eau toned by his friends against reckless ness in correspondence. In correcting a misstBtement made by western journal respecting Joseph keppler, he so far forge;s the dignity of his high office as to make some sweeping accusa- tions against the American press. As the President IS generally credited with sincerity and good intention, it is evi- dent his acrid strictures upon tEs Amer Ican press are designed to serve some useful purpoFe. We take it that his criticisms are meant largely for the ben eft of the Democratic press, which added in electing him in a campaign of reck- less snd malevolent defamation unpsr- alleled m the political annals of the country. His opponent was attacked month after month as no statesman ID publIc life had ever been as sailed before. Mir. BlsIne's correspond ence vas monstrously perverted. his pri- rate business trRnsctions were rsusack- ed with malign purpose and ssncity of lIs home wRntonly invaded from be- yinning to end; it was a campaign of indignant defamation on the part of the Democratic press. Apparently the Presi- ient's retrospect of the methods by which his election was secured IS not Altogether satisfactory. The President 'ccupies a position in relation to civil ervice reform in advance Of his party. 1 it is his ambition to develop

TIE intensely cold wave snow weep ing over the western states Is playing havoc among the cattle and stockmen from Kansas 10 Northern Dakota and
 Wyoming are reported to have already suffered great losses by the sudden cold and prolonged snowstorm. They be- lieved that an open winter was at hand and retained fewer men than usual, and
 when the storms came fine cattle strayed sEay from their ranges. and many Of them died. The unusual severity Of the present cold spell m Arizona, it be- ing fully twenty degrees below the average winter tempsrsture, gives a fair idea Of the intense cold that prevails in the more northern lgti:udes. Ih:' dis astrous state of affairs ID the north. while it excites the sympathy of tEe peoule living further south, and particu- larly the stockmen, assures higher prices for beef cattle during the coming year than has prevailed for several years past. The stocknea o., Arizona are particularly fortunate in qbeen tlook ttFs t7s Salieys and mesa lead VI to-asy 1 and fatten, while those or the north are decimated by the IuclemeDt weather snd the meager supply during the early summer months will fall far short of tue demand. While We can but rejoice st the golden prospects for our cattle men, We exceedingly regret that tbeir good fortune viii be derived from the of their brethren oi the lruzen north.

WE reproduce from the San Fran cisco Call long interview with several prominent residents of New Mexico who have been in position to know the things of which they speak. They are representative men and not Rlsrmists Tn auy sense, and their words are entitled to fully as much consideration as any so-called "officiar' reports. The state of affairs as shown by the interview IS somewhat humiliating to the boasted power of a great naticn like the United States. But particularly forcible is the treachery of the Indian scouts shown, and what Las long been suspected by the people is now fully proven by incon- troy ertible testimony. The treachery of the scouts has cost General Crook his coveted promotion and besides the vast expenses of his protracted campaign against the hostiles, his unpardorable blunder in thIs respect has added to the human sacrifice scores of our industrious and lsw-abidIng citizens.

The scJuts did not camp with the troops
 that night, but were 3U0 yards away, all q
 some ot the priyates affirmed that there
 were cnly few of them in their own
 camp during th0 night. About nine
 o'clock ID the morning the scouts report
 cd Co the Lieutenant that the fleeing
 hostiles had doubled on their track.
 and the troops turned back. Soon after.
 when nearing a narrow canon on Dry
 Greek, the scouts r0de on a couple of
 hundred yards m advance. The seouts
 passed through the worst part of the
 canon all right, bUt Gs the soldiers en-

 DT. Maddox of Fort BayGrd, who was
 rdIng beside Lieutenant Fountain was mortGliv wounded, and four prIyates were killed. A citizen, John Burke. was the oDly man who did not run, and dis
 mounting, he came to the wcupded mans assistance. Dr. Maddox begged the generous fellow to leave him and save hls own life, but Burke refused ,o desert wounded cJmTade. Gathering the wounded officer in his arms, Burke bastened into the brush near tbe road side and Was out of sitsh almost before the smoke had cleared away. As soon as the firing began, instead of turning to aid the soldiers, the scouts threw themselves from their saddles, and wait ing by the side of the road, let the rout- cd troops dash by them, ou down the creek. From his position in the brush, Burke saw some of the scouts hold with some of the hostiIes Tho appeared, and also saw one scout give the smbushers 6 hatfull of cart | ridges. No one approached the dead l soldiers, as probably the return O, the | troops was momentarily expected. The
