CONGRESSMAN HEDGE ON THE SITUATION
III To nr of the tnte shows film Hint

Ntnte of Organization
nt I'reietit,
Hon. Thomas Hedge of Burlington, la
member of congress from the First dis
trict, spent Sunday In Council Bluffs, ar
riving In the morning from LcMars. where
he addressed n republican meeting Sat
urday evening. He will leave this morn
ing for Malvern, where he Is booked to
speak tonight. Ho Is making a tour of
the state under an arrangement whereby
each congressman or candidate for con
gress will deliver at least one speech In
each of the congressional districts.
"The sentiment Is stronger today In
Iowa for MeKlnUy than It was four years
ago." Is tho way Congressman Hedge de
scribed the political situation In this
state as observed by him during his pres
ent tour He said that while the pres
ent campaign Is peculiarly a quiet one
nevertheless the meetings at which he has
spoken have all been welt attendod and
the peoplo Intcrsted In the discussion of
the Issues. His observations led httn to
believe that the rcpuubllran party was
making gains dally and that the people
generally were satisfied with the present
tondlilnns and not willing to take chances
by any change Whllo satisfied with tho
conditions under tht present administra
tion, people he noticed were willing to
henr discussed tho money, expansion ami
Imperialism Issues. "The peoplo In Iowa
arc as a rule too busy these days to talk
polities and the curbstone politician has
practically gone out of business. Every
body who wants to Is working and that
Is tho main reason why this presidential
enrapalgn lacks the excitement of former
campaigns. "
Accompanying Congressman Hedge here
yosterday was F. M Molsberry, a promi
nent attorney of California Junction, who
Is filling speaking dates through the state
under tho auspices of the state central
years ago. ins experience as to me ai
tendance at the meetings whero he spoke
was the same ns Congressman Hedge's

dlsrttsdlon of the issues.

The republican meetings held in the va

In fuct, at many of them largo cr wds have

The fight was the batttc of tho "Big

Though the action has but little fame with

Into tho basin. But next day they were
penned, twenty-Dvo of them. In a cabin
on Mlddleton's ranch, to fight a long-range
fight In which no one was killed and to
watch the Indians stampede their borss

In that they delayed the Indians a day.
Leaving tho Hangers to return, crestfallen
on foot, the Apaches passed on up Cherry
creek.
Stutnprdr nt Horses,
Tbo settlers had been alarmed and had
fled tn time save on one ranch. The two
Blgsby brothers had about 100 valuable
horses and had taken time to gather them i
up from the range. The band was being
held In front ot tho ranch house, ready to
be driven away, when down the vall.y
came the thud of horses' feet. Driven by
a few daring bucks, tho Indian herd of
loose ponies dashed Into the S.gsby band
and stampeded the horses up a side can

beginning to think their end would be that
of their comrades of the Seventh in the
memorable fight on tho Little Big Horn.
Suddenly, ns Joyful a sound as tho pipes
at Lucknow. a cavalry truujp?t sounded t
tho foot of the gorge. No other troops were
known to be within fifty miles of tho spot,
yet. to the rear, a squadron was dismount
ing and forming to fight on foot. I'p the
gulch camo three swallow-tailed guidons n!
the Third cavalry, tn a bowling, running
line, led by the famllar figure of stalwart
old Captain Wallace. Tho Indians, over
matched, yet unwilling to lose what thoy
hail thought their prey, sullenly and slowly
rotreated, firing from behind every boulder.
The end of the hill passed, the vantage
ground was with the whites. The Apaches
broke anl ran for cover in the rocks at the
tide of the gorge. But the fire ot the ad
vancing force was too heavy and too accu
rate. Leaving horsea and supplies, the
Apaches wildly fled, each for himself, seal
lng the steep tides of tho canyon, They
climbed the cllfft like flies, to be picked off
by scores by the relentlett riflemen below
A few escaped, but mott of the survivors
, about dark dropped their rlflei, came out of
tho holes they had scooped In the hillside
and surrcadered.
Not till then did tho oSlcsrs and msn of
the different commands hammer ooe
another en tho backs and demand explana
tions. They were simple, though tho com
bination at that time seemed nothing short
of miraculous. Wallace, In command at
Fort Vordc, about ninety tnllett to the
west, bad been Informed of the ruute ci
the hostllcs and had been detached to
head tbetn off. He lost some time by a
false trail near Fossil creek, but later
swung eastward through Grien and Pleas
ant valleys and struck Chaffee's trail and
his scores of discarded charters. He w.is
soon Joined by a scouting force from Fort
Apache from the east, comprising a com
pany ot White Mountain Apache scouts and !
some cavalrymen, officered by Lieutenants !
Morgan and Converse, and tho combined
force pushed on at top speed to arrive
In the alek ot time. Tho Apache scouts
belonged to an antagonistic division of
tho tribe and rendered the best of ser
vice In the fray. One of tho scouts, In
cidentally, was "the Kid," tho Apache who
later went on the warpath alono And to
whom arc charged moro than twenty mur
dcr Lieutenant Morgan came out of the fight
with a severe wound below the shoulder.
Armed with a repeating rifle, an cxpross,
shooting expanding bullets, he crouched
bohlnd a boulder and sniped nnny at tho
black spots that bobbed around tho edges
of tho great rocks across the gulch. Ho
notleed that an Apache almost opposite
htm was doing some very good shooting
In his direction. Exposing himself a lit
tlo more than be should he waited for
Mr Apache to raise his head. The mo
ment came. Tbo edgo ot tho Apache's
red turban came Into view and Morgan
fired. As his finger pressed the trigger
a flanking or ricochet shot from the rifle
of some unreckoncd warrior .struck hi in
and he droppid.
It was In 1601 that Morgan returned to
the scene of tho fight In the "Big Dry
Wash." With him was Jack Hicks, who
had been with Wallace as a scout, but
who Is now an affluent cattle owner. They
searched the battlefield over, noting thu
cartridge shells nnd broken accoutre
ments that still littered the points where
the memorable day had beea tho warm
est. They found the boulder where Mor
gan had fought and bled.
"When I was hit." tho officer explained,
"I had Just shot at an Indian behind that
blif rock across the gulch. Lot's go over
there."
Behind the i
"Over there" they went.
big rock was n crevice and In that was
wedged a bleached skeleton. Tho top of
the skull wai missing. Tho express rifle
and steady ey had been true.
And that Is nbero tho Inkstand camo

DIAMO.M) CUT DIAMOND.

Diamonds cut diamonds; they who will
prove
To thrive In cunning, must cure love with
love
The three words opening th above quo
tation from Ford, "Tho Lover's Melan
choly," Thamaston; act 1, scene 3. are
recalled by Mr. Joseph O. Thcard, who
tells how he first heard the expression
In 1813. when he was a mere lad, relates
the New Orleans Picayune.
It was at the raco track. Two sports
men wore conversing. One of them ad
mired a flashy diamond breastpin worn
by the other.
"That's a fine pin you have," says A.
"Yes," replies B.; "It you fancy It I
will sell It to you for JSOO."
Tho bargain Is consummated, but A no-
i tices that B and the other fellows are
quietly laughing. He says nothing and oil I
, "I'll bet $5,000 that It's genuine," re-
torts A,
"We take tho bet," reply B and his
chums.
The orowd drives to the city and enters
a Jeweler's shop. The diamond is pro
nounced genuine. Two other Jewelers are
seen and they also find that the stono is
perfect.
B bands over tho money.
Later A, having bad the false diamond
reset ln the pin, meets B and offers to re-
turn tho diamond to him on payinf at of tbo
(00 he bad given
B gleefully accepts (as the stcne the
1 gang had noted tho day before had been
valued at $1,200).
