With regard to the talk about the alleged
piactko of earning extra fees by holding
jui \ trials in cases w hero p rrties might sim-
pli plead gulltv to the court , 1 luno just this
to say Air Mahunc.\ struck the nail ox-
nctlv on the hcud in stating in Tnu Iln : that
it was necessary to have jui'ietdicts in
cases where parties ha-.o been in
dicted on su\cral counts to pro
\ent the cases from being nolled ,
which meins that the putlcs rnuht bo
prosecuted iiguui an the counts to which
they hat o not pleaded gmltv For instance ,
a man is urrcbted for circulating counterfeit
money , the grand Juo hiimrs in an indict
ment on three counts against him The
ch iracter of the oflcnso in the thrco counts
is the samo. but the jury is obliged to make
three counts against him and make a pcc illc
ch.u go for each oiTonso Now it has been
Jound to bo an economical arrangement to
got the accused to agi ee to plead guilty to
ono or two ' oitnts , for instance , and ha\o
the jury acquit him on the otheis , for the
reason that if wo honld go to trial on all
tlueo counts It would icquho the sum
moning of a whole raft of witnesses
nnd consume so\eial dn\s time in
court Bi pleading guilty to one count the
accused gets practically the s uno punish
ment and the ends aio icached without the
expense and tioublo of summoning a lot of
witnesses and consuming the time of the
court and Jurv.
"But people who aio arraigned upon
charges of this kind Uo not like to pic id
guilty to anything , unless they know they
are going to bo relieved from further trouble ,
In the case by so doing Tlioj luuo a right
to demand a Juiy Ural if thei want it. By
simply letting them plead guilty to
one or two counts and h.uirg the jury
bring in \crdict to that effect , the ac
cused is forever fiecd fiom at lest under
those charges and the government is saved a
largo bill of expense The law reads that
for every jury trial the prosecutor shall have
a fco of UO , and while it may seem an easj
way of making fees for the attorney to have
ctlminals appear before the jiulgo and plead
guilty , the foreman of the jury signing the
verdict , as prepared bv the clerk , jet it is
simply an opcditlous course in reaching nn
end th it would bo very expensive and tedious
if the form of an actual jury trial weio fol
lowed to the end , nnd as a rule the punish
ment is just as great.
"I do not court newspaper notoriety , but I
am frank to state that if the democratic ad
ministration wants mo out of this olllco I am
reuly to got out at the drop of the hit I
am perfectly willing to stand upoinnj iccoul

POOR 10 MAKES GOOD SOLDIER
Onptaiu Raj's Estimate of the luilmu as a
Military Mnu.
HE IS WARRIOR BY BIRTH AND TRAINING
* All thn IMuiniMitN of n Solillor ,
Ihn U'orlc , Trnlncil to Ohiullonrr ,
Alilc to Kniliiro HiiriUhlpi
nnd Known > o I'car.
The Indian character , from earliest hH
toii , has been Imperfectly understood nnd
much maligned. Paihirc. after repeated
efforts to mold It in accordant o with the
Ideas of the white m in nnd to make of it : i
potent factor In civilization , has led inanj to
think that the I lull in is capable of no good
and that nil cITorts to change his condition
should bo abandoned
Quite in contrast with this position is that
taken bj Captain P. H Kaj of Fort Wnslm-
kic , Wjo. n L'cntlcmm who was
bom and reared in the west , who
served under General Crook for sevei.u
jcus , who was for n long time
the command of n i omp'inv of Imllnn scouts
In Atlzona , and who has hail charge , as cap
tain , ( lining the past t\\o.\e.us of a romp.mv
of Iiull in soldiers at Tort Wash ikle. In n
conversation the captiln said
"I believe and know tint the Indian , if
properIv handled cm bo inn-lo n good sol
dli'r The tioublo Is th it ho Is gonoialli not
so handled ' 1 ho piesent piaitlio is to sub
ject him to the method i picscrlbid for the
whilom in This Is a mist ike. You cannot
rn iko of him a goo 1 linit Uion of a w hlto sol
dier Ho should ho taken us an Indian
nnd trained as such , and his original
tl aits and wo I qu illtics should be perpetu
ated Cvi'pt as to minor i emulations such
as tlioso tvl rting to food nnd clothing , ho
should be governed as an Indian , pure and
simple
"It is possible , as T s ild , to make of the In-
dl in an excellent soldier , nnd one , too. all
tilings lotiblih'ied , who will be super lor to
the while soldier Andwliv not ? Ho is a
bom soldier to begin with lake allbrr
burins he is better vcised in the nits of
war th in in the ,11 Is of peace Then again
ho his a speilil liking for pin suits
of a mllltarj iliaiactcr He has been nc
cnstomcd to them liom earliest childhood
andnaturillj follows the bent of his tiain-
ini' You undertake to civili/o him through
the medium of iiillitaii service and vouwtll
succeed far bolter thin thunmh the mis-
sion.uv or training schools Tot it is useless
to teach the Indian bookkeeping who h is no
accounts to keen , or to teach him to nmlto
shoes or ilothing and then oblige him to te-
tiiur nnd earn his living among his people ,
who wear onlj moccasins or blankets lie
can't bo made to see1 the value of an educa
tion whiili produces no immediiteiebults If
pcrihtii'in be should leiinlo in ike shoes ,
keep books or anv trido rcqniung skill , no
white m in would emploj him He Is obliged
to go back to his tilbe What nei-d hue
thov of shoes' He is obllircd to go bick to
their conditions and customs or foiover re
in rin Jii outlaw in then cies You meet
him , however , on a military piano nnd ho
will associitc with ) on an lin a meisuie
adopt voui methods In shoit , he is in sjm
pa thy with jou
' Again the Indian has j'ieater powcis of
cmlmamo Ho can go loiuer without food
and enduic gi eater h.udships th in a white
man I will irive vou somoexamples When
I had charge of the Apache scouts in Ali/ona ,
I sent ono ol my men on foot over the biiow \
range to a place seventj-hve miles awav Ho
took with hrm less turn two pounds of food
and undo the cntiio trip of ! . " > ( ) miles in
thirty bouts Ileters another Instance I
once took rnv present ionipuii of llftj-llvo
men fiom Fort Wnshakio over the main
range of the mountains , a distance of foity
miles Wo weio gone the dais , and had
with us but llft\ pounds of bread and twenty
pounds of colTce , one pack mule onlv being
usi'd
"Another re ison is that in his nor mil con
dition the Indian is inoro amenable to disci
pline than the while man Obedience to the
old men and thu chiefs of the tiilio is the
111 st lesson he learns When I organized m.v
present i omp.iny 1 didn't go to individual
membcis of the tiibe to get men to enlist I
went to the old men and the chiefs , told
them vvh.it 1 wanted and thoie let tdo mat
ter rest. Thcj debated rm pioposltroa sev
eral dajs , returned and said it would tie ac
cepted * ' 1 ho councilors hail simply told the
icquisito number to enlist with me , and thcj
had cheeifullj obeyed and wcic satislled
Thpj never questioned the advice of their
superiors Had thcj done so they would
have been considered outlaws of the tribe ,
Just as they are when absent nt schools pro
vided by the whites Thoj simply cease to
belong to the tiibe and tint's the end of it
"To train an Indian ono must nndcisMnd
his superstitions , his prejudices , his likes
and dislikes , his mode of life , in shoit. his
very nature He must endeavor to think
nnd fuel us the Indian thinksand feels Here
is an illustration Suppose ho asks jou to
do him borne slight favor , and jou denj his
request Hewillsij nothing , but ho will
never forget that jou refused him once , and
ho will never auam ask of jou a favor
Again , suppose jou , in his presence , uncon
sciously make some movement of the hand ,
which bj- him is understood to mean that
jou will do or not do for him some part re
ular tiling He will likclv feel offended
and while he will not saj anv thing ho will
never cease to think that jou did him a
wrong You know something of the extent
of the sign language among the Indians'
Well , they have n sign langu igo which is to
them what Latin is to the civili/cd woild
All the Indians in the tcglon bounded Jij the
Mississippi river , the Gulf , the Kockj
mount tins and Can id i can communicate bj
means of it 'llieio is , however , ne spoken
langu igo which Is common to them all Hut
an Indian In Texas can convciso bj blgns
vitli an Indian in D ikota and in ike himself

mo , 'lako mv own lompiny as an illustra

Arnpahocs and Slio&honcs 'Ihoj e.in't con
