Why don’t the State contractors make up their minds to tell the trath and be rid of the whole sickening eystem of “hagmen,” “collect- ore,” “go-betweens” and “shake-downs” with whidh Tammany has squeezed and milked them? Why don’t they seize their chance and open the way to do business im future with a free hand? Why don’t the contractors jump forward in a body to tell once and for all what they know about Tammany and shake the miserable Jead of it from their backe? ——————-4e2—____ The Public Service Commission reports that during the past year the car lines of this clty carried more passengers than there are people on earth.

Bohold Hamilton, Bermuda, with a population of 2,200, ablaze with wrath at the secret and scandalous doings of its municipal corporation and quoting President Wilson at length on his text: “Government ought to be all outside and no inside.” To judge from the editorial column of the four-page Hamilton Royal Gazette, honest men who would save the community have to sit up nights in a colony of King George as well as anywhere else. “There is an inextinguishable feud,” we read, “between the Cor poration (municipal) and publicity; consequently no agent of the preas is permitted to enter the sacred chamber and no item of the proceed- inge is allowed to filter beyond the bounds of the sacred conclave.” Moreover, such explanations as this corporation deigns to make {othe public are “ae murky as a Scotch mist and as insubstantial as the Spectre of the Brocken.” Meanwhile the business of the corpora- tion “includes principally prices for contract services, which expe- rience has proved that it is to the general interest to keep behind a veil,” » Even as five million people are buncoed by their own public s¢rvants, so two thousand find they have to watch out. Therefore, the Gazette quotes copiously from President Woodrow Wilson and Niegs all public-spirited Hamiltonians to “dig and let the darkness qut of the cellar.” It’s a pretty small pile where graft can’t find some pickings. -+ So, after peddling its seats to a former mine promoter who put them in hock, the Finest Opera in the World must refer its patrons to the pawnbroker! ——-++. * WORSE DROUGHT IN WASHINGTON. work with the odor of liquor on his breath.” Excuses simply | don’t go, the contention being that “anybody sick enough to drink whiskey is too sick to work.” «Maybe Uncle Sam knows what he’s about and time nay prove it.

NO. 13—A Lost Horse That Led to a Ten-Year Ap: ch? War. TROOP horse strayed or was stolen from a garrison post, in the Southwest, near the Mexican border. This was in 1861. For the next ten years a war of extermination raged throughout New Mexico and Arizona; a war that cost many hundred lives in battle and massacre, checked western progress and made the name “Apache” a term of terror, When the horse was missed—one account says several horses were lost—the officer in command of tho post seized five Chiricahua Apaches who chanced to be in the neighborhood (one of them was killed during the struggle) and accused them of the theft. Then he imprisoned them in tents, under guard, until they could be put on trial or could be scared intu come fessing. Among the four surviving captives were Cochise, the Chiricahum Cochise already had won loo repute as a bad man. He had fought the “Greaser” and had led his upon many forays across the Mexican border. But he had always treated the American pioneers kindly. He had not harmed any of them, nor permitted big tribesmen to do #0. Now that he wae unjustly arrested he swore a mighty oath of vengeanee then found a knife and cut a silt in the tent where he was confined. Nolselessiy he crept forth; eluding the guards am@ escaping from the army post. Cochise's next effort was to insure the safety of hig brother and his two other fellow-captives, He set abows thie in true Indian fashion. Lying in ambush, he captured a passing soldier? ound the man hand and feet and carried him into the mountains. Then he sent word to the officer at the post that if any of the three Apache prisoners were molested this soldier would be dragged to death along the rough moum» tain trails, with a rope around hia neck. Also that a similar fate would be meted out to any white man who might tn future fall Into the Apache's hands, The officer either did not get the message or else he did not choose to be Neve Cochis@ would carry out so barbarous a threat. In any case, the three Indian prisoners were taken to Apache Pass and there they were hanged. Cochise, mad with rage, took the warpath. His followers and many braves from neighboring tribes came at his call. War began with all the horrors that Apache ingenuity could devise. The frontier wae scourged by the savages. Settlements were ravaged; local militiamen and “regulars” were routed, ranches and villages wiped out. For ten long years the war continued. Sometimes Cochise would take the field tm open strife. Sometimes, hiding among the rocks of the Dragoon Mountains, he would lead his savage army forth to prey on passing emicrant caravans. He would take no prisoners; but killed every white man he could Iny hands on. Expedition after expedition was sent against him by the Government. Sug® bodies of troops as were too strong for him to meet In the open he eluded ey retiring to his stronghold in the hills, At the outset, Cochise drove Uncle Sam's local garrison from their poste and then laid waste the whole defenseless region. Almost at once, after thig the tulk of the troops were withdrawn from the Southwest to serve in the Civil War. This left the district at Coch mercy~at the mercy of merciless. When the Civil War ended, howe’ the Government went after the. Apaches in earnest. Nevertheless, Cochise did not surrender until 1871; an@ then only on his own terms. To Gen. O. O. Howard, whe Indian Vengeance negotiated the surrender, the old warrior gave his reasone for abandoning at last his hate-vow. “T have killed ten white men for every tribeaman I have .* declared Cochise. ‘But the white men grow no fewen, arly smaller and emailer. Soon it will vanish from the earth If T do not make peace.” Cochise and his tribe were not punished for their misdeeds; but were merely herded on a reservation. Except for one brief outbreak, with 80 of his paches, in 1872, he thenceforth remained peacefully under Government protes Y. M. C.
