More Truth Than Poetry

NOT SO RED AS THEY ARE PAINTED
We have seen the soulless savage who was wont to raid and ravage.
When the emigrant was crossing 01 tne piain;
We have seen the wild Apaches garner perfect strangers thatches,
I'nregardful of their piercing shrieks of pain.
We have seen hard-faced Comanches setling beads on western
ranches
Every sort and kind of redskin wt have seen.
And it been our observation that no brave, of any nation
Looked a bit like those who act upon the screen.
When In movie-show we've met 'em, we have wondered where they

Tbey are neither Sioux nor Bannocks, Utes or Crows.
Many of these curious creatures have the flattened facial features
That one often sees on Chinks or Esquimos.
Though arrayed in fringy leathers., or adorned with eagle feathers,
Or in coon skins, frayed and ravelled, it is plain to one who traveled,
That they're surely not .roiuciions ot me wesi.
Now and then we think ee spied one-a low-built and amber-eyed
Who was like the lads thst hail from Turkestan;
And again have we suspected that these red men were selected
From the teeming population of Japan. ...
But in six of seven cases, as we gaze upon their faces
A U J.ma nuin4a atllt'lv from the Veel
We are sure these fierce Apaches and the like were caught in Natchez,
Or in Baton Kouge, .New uneans or aioDiie.
Speech lit movies is not vital, so there's not in any title
Any meana to spot these birds by word of mouth:
Yet their gait is slow and heavy, and suggestive of the levee,
. And their faces bring to mind the Sunny South.

When they once have washed the war-paint off their maps
