when those southwestern Indians
intend going on the war-path they buy
all the ammunition they can get

to the mountains. Then just at dusk
or break of day. when least expected,
they swoop down upon a village, shoot
every one they can, fire the houses, and
stampede and run off al the stock, and
in so short time that before anyone
realizes what has occurred they are
gone.
Il was in Kingman, Ari., at the
time, and all the settlers from the sur
rounding country had been warned of
the danger and had hocked into town.
Everyone went thoroughly armed, and

Winchester and two siX-shooters, slept
with my clothes on, did guard duty
two nights a week, and at the end of a
fortnight was so thoroughly disguised
with Indian lighting, along with sew
eral others, that a general disarma-
ment occurred. About noon the next

with which he got outside of a bucket

soon after, and the campaign in Ari-

IT IS doubtful if any Superintendent
of Public instruction retired from office
more generally respected than J. b.
Thayer who quit Office on Monday last.
Mr.. Thayer is not only an able teacher
but a man of affairs. He is scholar but
no recluse and he brought to the dis
charge of the duties of his Office a full
knowledge of the needs of the public
schools and an extended acquaintance
with men which enabled him to employ
the very best material In all the subordi-
nate positions. Although firm in every
thing and positive in his convictions his
earnestness was never divorced from
courtesy and he will be remembered by
the teachers as a courteous gentleman as
we'll as an efficient officer.

The extent of the butchery at Wound
ed Knee Creek may be partially realized
when it is known that more Indians were
killed there than at any other engage
ment in % years. One hundred and SIX
teen bucks were killed out of a total of
$50 engaged. Fifty squaws and children
were also murdered. The troops out
numbered the Indians tour to one. The
soldiers lost q in killed and 33 wounded.
Big Foot, the chief, fell pierced by 20 bull
lets. His wife rushed to his body and
was slaughtered. 1t was the most dis
graceful butchery in the history of the
United States and in wholesale slaughter
barbarity and cruelty exceeds the most
atrocious Indian massacres.

Mr.. CLARKE of Sheboygan who claim
ed he was robbed some time ago IN Mil
waukee of S19,500 now confesses that he
did not lose a cent by robbery, and that
he made up the story out of whole cloth
SO as to save the money from his creditors.
The police of Milwaukee never did be-
lieve Clarke was robbed, and during the
investigation satisfied themselves of that
fact. Clarke was sent for and the facts
presented to him and he finally admitted
he was lying. Later he wrote letter
publicly admitting the whole thing. He
has left Sheboygan and no one knows
of his whereabouts.

A SCRUTINY of the list of appoint

A SCRUTINY of the list of appointments
made by the newly indicted state officers
reveals but few German appolntees
among the number. Ordinarily this should
receive no comment as American citizen
ship should be wholly Independent of
birthplace or extraction. But there is
no denying the fact that the victory
achieved by the democracy last fall was
due more to the Germans than all other
nationalities combined and they were
appealed to as Germans. 1t is also true
that they did not look to the offices as a
result of their action. They were intent
upon securing the repeal of certain legis-
lation which they mistakenly supposed
was blow at their nationality. But the
other fellows take the profits. The gen.
uine Yankee comes to the front when the
fruits of victory are to be distributed.
He had but little working capital in the
campaign but he was the noisy partner
and he takes all the dividends. 1t is a
queer sort of political world and people
do queer things.

WITH all the talk during the campaign
of the failure of the state treasurer to
keep the funds in the treasury vault, the
new treasurer found it necessary to dis
tribute the funds among the several
banks. Technically it is contrary to the
law to do so. But it is wise notwith-
standing. 1t is more convenient for those
to whom the state makes payments and
prevents a large amount of money from
being withdrawn from circulation. 1t is
quite certain the law will be changed
this winter authorizing the treasurer to
deposit state funds in banks.
