THE INDIAN AND MEXICAN
 SITUATION IN \ NUTSHELL
How Arizona Settlers Protect Them selves When Washington
 Would Not

In the opinion of D. c. Cady of Patagonia, a resident of this state for 50 years, ex-soldier of the United States army and prominent figure years ago in hunting outlaws and In- dians in this state, there will never be peace in Mexico until the United States takes a hand in it's affairs and there will never be adequate b2rdes protection until Americans along the border take the matter into their own hands. Cady is democrat, but he thinks Wilson made mistake in first not recognizing Huerta, and secondly in withdrawing the United States forces from Vera Cruz before order was restored in the republic.
 His belief that the government will never give adequate protection to people on the border is based on what has already occurred at Naco, Co lumbus and Douglas and upon his experience as a pioneer with the In. dians of this state.
 Conditions Similar
 "The whites were up against the same proposition in the early days as the border citizens are now" explain ed Cady. "It was the same old story of indifference at Washington. Wher Americans were shot on their owr side of the line at Naco, President Wilson passed it off as local mat. ter When Indians killed white mer here in the early days, the govern ment would send out few soldiers they would chase the Indians for 2 time and then allow the reds to re turn and commit depredations.,
 "There was the raid on the Woost CT ranch, for instance. This rancf was near Tubac. Wooster lived alone on the ranch with his wife and one hired man. One morning Apaches swooped down on the place, killed Wooster and carried off his wife. AS she has never been heard of since, il has always been supposed she wa: killed This outrage resulted in th' famous Camp Grant Massacre tho tale of which echoed all over tn, world, together with indignant pro tests from centers of culture in thu east that the whites of Arizona wer, more savage than the savages them selves.
 Same Kind of Triffling
 "The Wooster raid and slaughte, was merely the eliminating traged! of series of murders, robberies an' depredations carried on by tn Apaches for years. Soldiers woul, follow the raiders, kill few of then in retaliation, and a few days late another outrage would be perpetrat ed.
 When the Wooster raid occurred, was in Tucson. Everybody in Tucsol knew Wooster and liked him. Ther was general mourning and cry fo instant revenge when this murde was reported. We suspected the In

dians wintering on the government ranch at Fort Grant, at the expense of Uncle Sam, as responsible, though it was hard to convince the authori- ties.
 "The white men of Tucson held . meeting, at which was present. Sidney R. De Long, first mayor of Tucson, was also there. After the meeting had been called to order, De Long rose and said:
 How They Acted
 "Boys, this thing has got to be stopped. The military won't believe us when we tell them that their char ity to the Indians is our undoing and that the governments wards are a pack of murderers and cattle thieves. What shall we do
 "Let the military go hang, and the government, too," growled one man, Old Bill Oury, considerable figure in the early life of Tucson and an ex- Confederate soldier.
 "The meeting applauded. We can do what the soldiers won't I said.
 "'Right, said Oury, savagely. Let's give these devils taste of their own medicine. Maybe after a few dozen are killed they'll learn some respect for the white man."
 Confirm Suspicious
 "The next day six of us with three Papago Indian trailers followed the trail of the murderers of Wooster from the ranch to the Indian camp at Fort Grant.
 "That settles it," ground out Oury between his set teeth. "It's them In- juns or us, and it won't be us."
 "We returned to Tucson, rounded up a party of 50 Papagos, 45 Mex- cans and ourselves, and set out for Camp Grant. We reached the fort at break of day, or just before, and be- fore the startled Apaches could fully awake to what was happening, or the nearby soldiers gather their wits to- gether, S7 Aravaipa Apaches had slain as they lay. It was bloody work, but it was justice, and on the frontier then the whites made their own jus tice.
 Arrested and Tried
 "When word was sent from Fort Grant to Washington, Gen. William T. Sherman, who was of course ignor- ant of all the facts in the case, order ed our arrest on charge of murder. The jury acquitted us, and we were given an ovation. Lieut.. Whitman, who was in command at Fort Grant, was soon afterwards relieved from duty and Gen. George Cook took his place late in 1871. The massacre had occurred on April 30 of that year."
 Cady believes that 5000 rangers could capture Villa in a month, even if they were opposed by all the armies of Mexico. "No Mexican army could stop 5000 of such men," he declared. "The rangers would kill them as fast as they ame."-Douglas Information al.

News of her loss was flashed
here by wireless from the Italian

Calls for help were first sent out
from the Pollentia last Wednes-

able to keep in check the inrush-

leaking for three days.
A high sea was running and
the men manning the Verdis
boats were able to reach the

When all were safely aboard
