Tricky and cruel. the Apaches held
out for many years against the In
roads Of the whites upon their ancient
hunting grounds. Such leaders as
Cochise. Geronimo and Natchez led the
Apaches against famous American
generals like Nelson A. Miles and
George Crook. A reward OF $4,000
was once offered for Apache Kid. but
was never claimed.
Up to 1874 the Indians terrorized
large sections of the territory and
kept out immigration and capital. In
that year all the Apaches that could
be rounded up were placed on tho
San Carlos reservation. 1t was sup
posed that an end had been put to
the Indian troubles. but raids In 1882
and 1883 shook the feeling Of security.
In the year 1883 there were $4,000
Indians In the territory occupying
lands reserved for them by the gen.
eral government. The government
was supporting about hve thousand OF
them.
In 1882 the Chiricahua. White
Mountain and San Carlos Apaches
broke out in open rebellion. On the
morning Of April 10 Loco's band
broke out at San Carlos and after
killing the chief Of police started up
the valley Of the Gila, killing at least
sixty white settlers.
Then for six years Arizona was the
scene Of . mefciless Indian war. In
1883 Geronimo became chief Of tho
Apaches. He massacred settlers and

each raid he would escape to the
mountain fastnesses OF Mexico where
the United States soldiers could not
pursue him. Finally permission was
secured from Mexico for soldiers to
cross the frontier in pursuit Of the In
dams. In 1888 Captain Lawton. serv.
ing under Gen. Nelson A. Miles. sur
rounded Geronimo's warriors and
made them prisoners. The whole tribe
was taken to FLORIDA and later trans
ferred to Fort Sih. Okla. as prisoners
of war.
There Geronimo remained until his
death, three or four years ago. and
the remainder of his band is still
there. All desire to return to Arizona

OF course there were bad men and

Stage and train robberies were BY no
means uncommon and excited only
passing comment Finally train rob-
berries became 50 frequent that in
1889 the penalty for that crime was
fixed at death. In the same year the
legislature passed q law providing .
fine Of $26 for any one carrying con-
cealed weapons.
It was not until after the penalty
for train robbing had been fixed at
death that Arizona became really
peaceful. Now there 10 no train rob-

Until 1907 everything was wide
open in Arizona. Gambling was unre-
strained and. except where municipal
laws prevented. women and minors
were allowed in saloons. In that year
the legislature responded to an urgent
message from Governor Kibbey and
to pronounced public sentiment and
passed a rigid anti-gambling law that
closed such games.
