v ANOTHER GOOD INDIAN.
One, of the Kids Band Killed and Two
 Captured.
Globe Silver Belt.


 Retribution, sure if not swift. is over talking the Apache convicts who mur- dered Sheriff Reynolds and deputy w. A. Holmes, near Riverside, on the 2nd day of November 1SS9 On Monday last news was received here that Indian secret service men had killed an Indian rene gades and and brought his head in to San Carlos, and had captured another, both be- longing to Kids band. Kid and his fol- lower who escaped form Sheriff Reynolds, were subsequently joined by other rene gades and the band has terrorized South eastern Arizona ever since, and are charged with nearly ali the acts of yiol- ence and desvatation committed during the past eighteen months and a half by Indians in Arizona and Sonora, Mexi- co.
 From time to time individual members of the band have been killed by scouts, and one in an engagement with Mexi- can troops in Sonora. Five of the origin al number (eight) of conYicts are believed to be dead-four killed and one reported to have died. The Indian recently killed on the reservation by secret service scouts, and whose head was brought in to San Carlos, was identified as Pash-ten- tah, who according to Jesus Ayott who was a witness to the killing of Sheriff Reynolds and Holmes, was the Indian who did all the shooting on that occa- sion.
 We are indebted to Col Lewis John son. commanding officer a San Carlos, | for the following account of the killing of Pash-ten-tah and capture of another renegade named Curley.
 SAN CARLOS, July 23, 1890.
 Editor Silver Belt:-On the 18th inst, three Indians in military employ, who had discovered the usually travelled route of Kids band, met three of the outlaws, managed to become acquauainted and to gain their oonfdendce, and were allowed to accompany them to hiding place in the vicinity of Gila Peak and Ash Creek, where the party proposed to stop for a while. In the evening, just before dark the Indian secret service men fell upon the Kid crowd, killing Fash -ten-tah and wounding Saves, it is thought, but he and Curley escaped in the darkness Troops having been sent out to the scene under Lieut.. Michie, 2nd Cavalry, tc take up the trail, Curley, evidently run down. gave himself up and was brought into San Carlos, together with ahe deat mans Winchester, Curley's carbine and

Arizona.
 Courier.

Arizona has about ,000 square miles of territory, much of which is timbered. Her territory Is made up of valley, table and mountain lands, The climate of her lowest valleys IS warm. but healthy. The mesa and foothlll portion IS temperate; high mountains cool during a few winter months. Lower valleys produce oranges, lemons, grapes and other fruits, sugar, cotton, wheat, barley, alfalfa, etc, with out irrigation save in very dry years. Horses, cattle and sheep do well in every portion of the territory. Just now, in Prescott, which Is about 5,400 feet above the sea level, our people complain of heat for about two hours of the day, but people who reside in lower attitudes and who come here make sport of them for grllmbling at such enjoyable weather.
 The territory is divided into ten coun- | ties, mostly named after tribes of Indians.
 In 1863, when the territory was organ ized there were about 300 white men in 1t and not more than ten white ladies.
 It has at present between forty and if | ty thousand whites, among whom are | thousands of beautiful and accomplished white ladies.
 The principal towns are Prescott, Phe- nix, Tucson, Tombstone, Florence, Yuma, Wilcox, Bisbee, Flagstaff, Kingman, Will hams, St. Johns. Holbrook, Solomonville Clifton, Tempe, Gila Bend and Buckeye
 Our largest rivers are the Colorado i (navigable) Gila, Salt, San Pedro, Verde Francisco and Santa Cruz.
 High mountain ranges are San Fran cisco, Bill Williams, Mogollon, Sierra Blanco, Graham, Chiricahua, Dragoon Santa Rita, Rincon, Huachuca, Natanes Sierra Ancha, Pinal and Four Peaks.
 Largest agricultural valleys, the Salt Gila, Verde, Colorado, San Pedro.
 What one section lacks another has, SC that few north and south railroads are alone required to make ''the state self supporting"
 Our school system is frst-class, ol eastern scholars and publications would not have said so.
 Considering that owing to the want o1 quick modes of communication the peo pie of the different sections do not gel together very often. there is very little sectional feeling.
 Politics , as the saying goes, do no run high"
 Our people have done pretty well, con sidering the Indian wars and federal mis rule through which they have passed.
 The latter is with them. It is more gal lant than ever before It is almost un bearable, so that from Colorado to Stein Peak; from Nogales to Zuni, the praye of our people is for speedy deiveranc from the rule of federal satrap who ha set the people of his own party by tn ears and nullifed the organic act of th territory.

An EquivocaI Reply.
Tncson star.

Can some of Governor Woltey's friends keep him out of print? He never gets there without playing the monkey act" Now comes his letter from the secretary of war, which the governor pu blishes ip his paper and was reproduced in yester- days Star. Secretary Procter in his letter does not in any way attempt to shield the governor from the charges laid at his door, but on the contrary simply acknowl- edges the receipt of the letter as follows;
 Dear Sir: I have the honor to acknowl- edge the receipt of your communication of the 3rd instant, calling my attention to an article printed in the Tucson Star of that date, intimatiug that you are ''the moving power which caused the recent court martials in Tucson, and requesting me to state that you had no connection herewith and tu reply that neither you nor any other civil officer of Arizona, had any part in the proceedings which led to the arraignmeut and trial of the officers recently tried at Tucson.
 It appears that the governor under took tO dictate to the secretary of war the kind of an answer he was to return, for instance he writes:
 And requesting me to state that you had nO cOnHeotlCg therewlib and tC reply that neither you nor any other civil officer of Arizona, had any part Tn the proce edngs which led to the arraignment and trial of the officers recently tried at Tucson" Why did not the Secretary of War sen the Governor the answer he requested? ? Was it because he did not have the time Or was it because he could not do so con sistently with the facts? He does lot hesitate to call the attention of the Gov ernor 10 the contents of his letter, but he does not deny the intmation of the Star | Here comes up another query. Why did is a worse break than publishing that let ter of Lige Halfords. Governor, you arg too anxious to get into print. You are making consummate ass of yourself and | friends.

Birds of Evil Omen.
Negales Record.


 It is strange and to be deplored, that Nogales has small number of genuine cranks or croakers rather, who have little else to do but sit around our public places and complain of hard times; pouring their tales of lack of business, dull times times, scarcity of money etc. into the sometimes too willing ears of their listen CTS, discouraging those who have already located with us and also forcing those away who might otherwise remain. Of course with those who know the croaker's local history, no damage is done, but with the stranger much harm results. According to their history, the whole bottom of Southern Arizona and Sonora, (Nogales in particular,) has dropped out and the slaves beginning to tumble in; the absolute necessity of high taxation for the future, will certainly coniscate all our property and depopulate the county; no hope of regaining lost busi- ness prestige, etc. The truth of the mat ter is, that Nogales has never had a ''boom," but what is better, 1t has had and retains a good, solid growth; new buildings and other improvements are going up and on steadily; people are gradually coming in and locating with us and although our tradesman may find business little quiet at present, they should remember that this is the usual | dull season and money close. Besides this there is general depression in busi ness this year all over the country and Ii is only natural that Nogales should bt effected more than in former years; there fore let all this croaking of the croaker: cease; force them into the background where they belong. Nogales has a brigh future as time will surely prove. Thos, who are dissatisfied with their lot here fo Heavens sake and that of long suffer ing community who have borne tht croaker and crank burden already toC long, get out of the way and giv working and satisfied people a chance

Births and Death
Tucson Star.

The county recorder has to keep rec cord of every birth und death inthe county This is required by law But how is the recorder to enter each birth and death If he is not notified by parties interested as to time and place when they occur? The recorder complains that this is neglected very much, and that numbers of deaths take place that are never noticed and put on record. The law requires all physi- clans and aceouchers to report in writing to the county recorder all births and deaths which comes under their super vision, with the cause of death, within 30 days after such birth or death. The same duty is required of the parent husband or wife, or the next of kin (not minor of the child born or person deceased, as the case may be, In the absence of phy- sician; or if there be none then by the owner or lessor of the home where the death shall have occurred, or by the person first discovering the deceased per son.

Cattle Inspection.
Wilcox stockman.

A meeting was recently held in Denver of the live stock sanitary boards of Colo rado, New Mexico and Kansas, at which the Colorado Board decided to do away with the inspection fee that has been charged on cattle from New Mexico and Arizona passing through that State by rail for points beyond the Colorado line Heretofore all cattle from these Terri tories (Arizona and New Mexico) pass ing through Colorado were required to be unloaded at Raton, and a fee of l15 cents per head was exacted from shippers for such inspection. As there is no contagious cattle disease of any nature in either territory, this forced inspection was manifestly unjust and has been loudly protested against, and at last with satisfactory results. Arizona cattlemen and shippers are under obliga- tions to the New Mexico Sanitary Board. mainly through whose efforts it was that the inspection fee has been abolished. According to the new rules of the Colo rado Sanitary Board, cattle destined fol points in that State will be inspected as heretofore at Raton, while cattle that are being shipped through the State will not be inspected, but can only be unloaded from the cars for feeding and watering at La Junta, Pueblo and Denver.

A AIERITED TRIBUTE.
Letter From General Miles to General

Brigadier Gen. Griersol has received the following letter from Major General Miles on his retirement
 SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July s, 1890.
 Brig.-Gen. B. H. Grierson. U. s. A, commanding Department of Arizona, Los Angeles, Cal.-GENERAL: In accordance with the requirements of the act of Con gress in which officers of the army are re- tired from active service at given age, and the orders of the President thereon, it becomes my duty to relieve you of the command of the Department of Arizona and temporarily assume the duties of that department In doing so l desire to ex- press to you the regret that the service loses one of its most distinguished and Jealous officers, and at the same time to convey tQ you my expressions of good will and appreciation of your long, faith ful and valuable services to the republic.

fight it Is almost certain that Geronimo's band joined the battle and helped the scouts to drive of the MeXicans The Apache scouts were always treacherous, and when General Miles replaced the Chiricahua scouts with White mountains and San Carlos 1t was a step m the right direction; but even they were not to be depended upon, and Lawton's success was due in a measure to the fact that he mistrusted his Indian scouts and rehed upon his own troops tO do the work.
 The treacherous character of the Apache Indian is strikingly Illustrated by the re cent outbreak at the San Carlos agency. The Indians interested are some of the very same ones who served as scouts with the American troops in pursuit Of Geronl- mo and his band They were well treat ed, we'll paid, and well fed, but their love for excitement and bloodshed IS SD great that they have been unable to remaln quietly on the reservation, and now that they have no more Chiricahuas to fight, have gone on raid of their own. Official reports show that several friendly In dians have already been killed and the Arizona papers state positively that ten Indians have left the reservation and have not been overtaken by the troops Tn pursuit The probabilities are that they have gone south, heading for thelr old stamping grounds in Sonora. IT such IS the case their raid will certainly be the bloOdiest in modern times, for the noun tains are full of Americans. who are III utter ignorance of any Indian trouble
 If in the present raid Mexican citlzens are killed and their property destroyed the American government will be more to blame than on any former occasion. for the southwest frontier has been left without the protection which ordinary caution would have suggested. When Geronimo was captured the pack trans in the Territory were sent to the North west The white and Indian scouts were discharged with the exception Of two companies for Arizona and New Mexlco' and all of the hellograph stations were discontinued. According to reliable, re- ports the troops in the territory were practically stripped of means for follow ing the Indians in case of an outbreak The troops may succeed i'll putting down the present outbreak before the Indians 1 cross the border, but the fact that two weeks have passed since they first became unruly, and that they have not yet been taken, points to prolonged raid. It IS known that they are at least twenty h. dians in the party, we'll mounted and even if large number does not go on the warpath, this band Is strong enough to inhict untold loss of life and property on the unprotected and unsuspecting settlers of Arizona, and their even more unfortunate leighbors on the other side | of the border
