THE CAPITAL QUESTION,
I'm Time of Peace Prepare for War
Judge A. l.. Morrison Handles
the Matter Without
Gloves.
To the Editor Of the New Mexican.

To the Editor Of the New Mexican.
SANTA FE, N. NJ, Sept 1--WE are en-
joylng truce now on the capital ques-
ton, but it is only a truce. just as soon
as the next meeting of the legislature ap-
proaches the old war on Santa Fe will be
renewed with more vigor than ever.
Every effort fair and foul will be made
and every argument, good and bad, will
be used against us. 1t behooves US as
prudent mento not let the time slip by
until we are face to face with the danger,
for it may then be too late.
If once VIC lose the capital it is lost to
us for ever aud it will be loss to every
man in our city who owns house and
lot or expects to make his home here.
But can we do anything now! I'm
doubleday we can. For the last thirty
years the New MEXICAN has been battling
for the territory at large and for Santa
Fe in particular, but never has it fought
for us with such splendid and persistent
energy as under its present management.
Day in and day out, the good fight has
been kept up.
Some times it was forlorn hope, but
time and again the New MExIcAN's in
domitable courage has plucked victory
from the very jaws of defeat; it is like
the American volunteers at Buena Vista,
according to all the rules of war they were
defeated, but they kept fighting on till
victory perched on their banners.
Now suppose when the next struggle
comes wo have not the New MEXICAN in
Santa Fe, what other paper can we rely
on to lead the column forcess
Every one of US knows there is no other,
and that being so the battle will be more
than half lost before it is begun. Surely
then it is our interest, as well as our duty,
to come to the support of our best friend
and by every means in our power sustain
it IN its never ending campaign for us.
1t is unnecessary to indicate how this
can be done, rs every man knows that il
is on subscriptions and advertisements a
newspaper lives. Remember this is no
party question, as Democrat and Repub-
llcan residents of Santa Fe are alike in
terested, and if the NEW MEXICAN was a
Democratic organ and had fought our
fight so long and so successfully, all I
have said would be equally true. Yours
respectfully, A. Il. MORRISON.

AN INDIANS GRAVE
dow . Red Mans Death was the Cause
of n Fierce War,

The grave of an Apache Indian
lies at Apache TeJu, New Mexico,
and though the mans name is Tor
gotten his death was the cause OF a
fierce and bloody war between the
Indians and United States troops.
Near Apache Teju was a Govern
ment post commanded by Lieut. Nc
LINE. The Indiansof the region had
been very troublesome, attacking
stage coaches and immigrant parties
and the Lieutenant set to work to Try
and come to some terms with the
commanding chief. Ile invited him
alone to the fort and the chief came.
In the hospitable formalities prelim-
mary to a talk the chief became
greatly intoxicated and Lieut. Nc
Lane had him put to bed under the
shelter tent in the corral and placed
Two guards over the tent with positive
orders not to let the chief leave the
fort under any circumstances. He
expected the chief to sleep of the
ELECTS of the liquor and be ready for
a talk In the morning. The instruc-
tions however, seem to have given
the guasds the idea that the Indian
was a prisoner who must not be per-
mitted to escape,
At midnight, when the guard wa:
relieved, the chief was sound asleep.
The new sentries had only the word
of the relieved guard that he was
still there, and as he made no sound
they began to suspect that he might
have slipped away. Having taken
the post without making sure OF their
charges presence, they began to feel
uneasy, fearing that they would be-
held responsible for his escape. They
discussed the matter in whispers that
the Apache had escaped from the
other sentries, and that their CONF
rades had played a sharp tex and
shifted the blame to them. 1t would
have been easy to settle the question
by crawling in and examining the
shelter tent, but they were afraid OF
the Indian and had some doubts about
the wisdom Of waking up a drunken
Apache in the dark. They poked
buOlf D11OilCuS uliuGl JlC tdbO VI VIM
tent and felt around for the Indian.
They found him. A sharp bayonet
prodded into his thigh brought thu
chief to his feet with a yell, and he
sprang out of the tent, bowling rage
and defiance ami brandishing a knife.
The frightened men tired at The
chief and shot him dead.
1t was futile to attempt to explain.
the affair to the Apaches who were
awaiting for their chief to return.
How could the Lieutenant tell them
that a fort full Of soldiers had tc kill
one Apache in self-defence? They
knew that their chief had been lured
to the fort by solemn promises of
protection and freedom to return, and
that he had been murdered by the
soldiers, and they believed that it was
all a treacherous plot So they went
upon the warpath and killed white
men and women wherever found
The dead chief was buried near thG,
post and here his bones Ess.,nain unti,
