Stran 165 - ... to gather them together little by little, on to a reservation, away from the haunts, and hills, and hiding-places of their country, and then to be kind to them; there teach their children how to read and write, teach them the arts of peace; teach them the truths of Christianity.
Stran 209 - There is only one way to wage war against the Apaches. A steady, persistent campaign must be made, following them to their haunts — hunting them to the " fastnesses of the mountains." They must be surrounded, starved into coming in, surprised or inveigled — by white flags, or any other method, human or divine — and then put to death.

Stran 32 - s stupidity and ignorance probably cost five thousand American lives and the destruction of hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of property.
Stran 165 - They have no government to make treaties ; they are a patriarchal people. One set of families may make promises, but the other set will not heed them. They understand the direct application of force as a law ; if its application be removed, that moment they become lawless. This has been tried over and over again, and at great expense.
