It seems that the young "bucks" of the
Navajo tribe of Indians are spelling for a
fight with the whites. OF course, in case o
war should come up, there will be lots of
blood shed, but in that case, Uncle Sam should
not let up on them until he had extinguished
light of every galoot of a red skin who takes
up arms against the U. s. soldiers. We think
it about time the Indians were given good
