IS a conversation upon the recent
 proclamation by Gov. Zulick, one of our
 most worthy citizens asked another
 which side in the conflict be would es-
 pouse should an attack on the San
 Carlos reservation be made. 'I would
 fight to protect the Iudisns-not that
 I care a straw for them, but through
 them it would be actual protection to the white settlers throughout the whole of Arizona"
 This is the honest sentiment of ninety nine out of every hundred residents of Arizona, the proclamation of the gov ernor notwithstanding. and paradoZical as 1t may sound, it a fact that our own safety lies in protecting the peaceable Indians nov on the reservation, and why?
 There are now on the reservation about six thousand Indians belonging to eight different tribes: The Apache Mohsves, Apache Yumas, Tontos, Ars- yaipas, Finals, White Mountain, Chiri- cahuas and Warm Springs, the latter trIbe being originally from New Mexico. Their tribal names indicate the sections of the country from which they were re- moved to the reservation. The Apache Mohaves formerly occupied the coun- try lying between tha: of the Mohaves, eastward to near Prescott, and the | Tontos roamed from that point east ward to the White Mountain tribe. The Apache Yumas were east and northeast l of the Yuma tribe and the Finals were east of them; the Aravsipas occupied the San Pedro country and the Chlrica- huRs were chiefly from the vicinity of the mountain range of that name.
 The Chiricshuas and Warm Springs are now on the warpsth and have al- ways been noted for their insubOrdins- tioa and hostility to the whites, and their young men, inspired by the legends of the prowess of their ancestors could not be restrained from the war path by the cid and more reasonable nInds of the tribe. The other tribes on Inc reservation are as peacesble snd friendly as the Pspsgos.
 Now, an attack on the reservation for .he purpose of snaihilsting the Indians would require force ,f from twenty to fort! thousand well .rmed and thoroughly brave men, to accomplish the bloody task. \ mob of one or two hundred men , Eould themselves be swept out of eIis- ence in making the mad attempt, and bis fact is so we'll known that 10 one , 5 so foolish as 10 enlist in such 6 hope ! sss cause. c An st<t upon these peaceful tribes -ho dvsaa contentedly upon the reservs-

inhabited by them, wItL huge tido of human blood. For the bad faith of the whites they would retsliste by the de- strlction of Globe, Tonto Basin, PInal. Silver King, Florence, the san Pedro settlements from Benson down, Phenix and Prescott. Tins they could a .complish before steps tc suppress them could be taken, and an attack upon the reserya- tion menaces the lives and property Of the inhabitants of the fairest portions oi our Territory. Hence the wisdom of protecting the peaceablo and innocent Indians, and wasing war only upon the hostiles now engaged In their bloody work.
 These facts, known tJ almost every resident of tbe Territory. show the utter sbsurdity oi the recent proclamation by the governor, and they are Q gusran tyUf the permanent protection of tLe reser- vation Indians by the white people even those whose homes are draped II, mourning for the victims Of the crueltf Of tue hostile Indians. \ little rcfy' tion might have given the governor 4 ample assurance that the people of . zona have no desire ;o work thel5 " destruction. and that thsx.s ..,''- treaeheEous murdeIsss1S' - r' ,l- breakers, as

The Tucson CITIZEN confirms our as- sertion that the proclamation of Gov ernOr Zuiick was made on the strength of su uncOnfirmed rumOf and was an insult to the law-sbiiing citizens of the Territory. IL has hurt Arizona at the east precisely the same as the Seattle incident injured Washington Territory. because 1t gave eastern people the idea that the wild west was more lswless than usual in those places. The real fact IS that the ArizoDians endure with out complaining what no eastern com muaity would suffer for a moment. Fancy the shriek that would go up ID every eastern state if band of Indians from a reservation periodically broke out and scalped score of people and destroyed or stole their property. Yet thIs is what has been going on in Ari- Zons for ten years.-S. F, Chronicle.
