THE TRIBUNE.

The affairs of THE TRIBUNE Association
have been the subject of much Improbable
discussion recently in the newspapers, and Of
various idle gossip for which there was little
foundation in fact. II is now proper to state
however, that, as the result of certain intrigues
and outside efforts, to gain control of the
paper, and wrest it from the purpose to which
our late chief devoted it, some changes have
taken place in the proprietorship, and large
majority of the stock is to-day permanently con-
centrated in the hands of Mr.. Greeley's chosen
editorial acknowledgement whom he trained for
this particular duty, to whom he intrusted the
management of his journal in the gravest
emergencies whom he honored with the con-
fidence Of his thoughts and wishes, and whose
purpose it now is to continue the work from
which he was so suddenly called away. Their
ambition is to make The TRIBUNE of the
future what Horace Greeley would have made
it if God had spared him,-a frank and fear
less newspaper, devoted to the best interests
of the whole country; spending its energies
and resources freely in the collection of news;
keeping its readers informed of the course of
events, the currents of opinion at home and
abroad, the progress of science and the useful
arts; speaking its mind freely on all questions of
public concern detesting neutrality in poll
tics as the refuge of tho weak minded and the
timid, but keeping its independence as the
best title to honor and usefulness. How far
our achievement must fall short of our endeavOr,
missing every hour the strength of that in
comparable advocate whom we have lost, none
can realize more fully than ourselves. But we
have at least this qualification for our work,
that we have caught something of his spirit
and learned to know his purpose.
That purpose, as he formally announced it
in his latest writings for these columns, was
to make his journal more thoroughly than ever
the honest and unfettered champion Of Repub-
licanism, Reconciliation, and Peace. To the
complete placement of tho scars of war and
the restoration of brotherhood between the
long separated sections of our country he de-
voted the last labors of his life; and though
one OF The means by which he hoped to accom-
plish this result brought him personal disap
pointmen!, he believed, even in the Bit

A SPECIMEN INDIAN VAR.

In the south eastern corner OF oregon, just
over the California line, there is now raging
small Indian war, which is characteristic enough
to be taken for type of nine-tentbs OF those
connections. The Modocs had reservation
set apart for them by the Government; they
agreed to go Oh it and stay there. But u1dls-
turbed in their wide ranges, they forgot their
promise, and looked on the encroaching lines
of settlers with disdain and hostility. when
they grew bold enough, they provoked ire
quent quarrels; perhaps the white settlers
were not very peaceably inclined. The Gov
eminent was petitioned to interfere, and per-
emptory orders were issued from Washington
that the Modocs be removed to the res
ervation, where other remnants Oh trlDes
were already gathered. They were
stubborn, and refused to go. The
military force which was nearest at hand
was called on to compel the Indians to remove
TO the reservation. The tribe is small-only
about one hundred braves being in the field at
any time; against these, however, hirty-tCe
soldiers were brought, with orders to drive the
angry savages to their future homes. The rest
is easily told: There was battle; the troops
were beaten by the Indians; the victorious
Modocs Immediately declared war against the
settlers, sixteen of whom were slain. The
Indians took to the mountains, fortified them
selves and-at last accounts-held their own
against O largely superior force OF United
States troops. Might not these tragical occur
rences have been avOidedf
AS is so often the case, the Modocs were
not promptly and firmly ldealt with. They
were not even coaxed to their reservation, but
were left to roam at WILL long after they
should have been drawn out of the region
which was declared to be open for white set
Element. Their proximity to pushing set
tiers was sure to bring the conflict which
came at last. Instead Of making formidable
military demonstration against " Scar-faced
"Charleyn and his irritated band of warriors,
handful of men was sent out against
them. There are over two hundred
soldiers in the field; if this force is
within reach now, it ought to have been be-
fore the fighting or the threatening begun,
AS it is, the Indians have been encouraged by
the success Of their first brush with the enc
my; they must be practically extermnated
now; and considerable region Of country Is
harassed with alarms, mourning the massacre
OF sturdy citizens, and ravaged by the de-
structiye frebrands of needless Indian war;
There has been culpable laundering some
whore Horo ara the facts: tho thoughtful
reader can draw his own conclusions.

represented as q shabby mendicant, and his
children as beggars brats. There is little doubt
that his son Montpensier would have been
King of Spain two years ago, IL it had not
been for the prejudice that had grown up
against him among the poor and proud Span
iards, on account Of his vast wealth and bis
prudent husbapary. The only serious objection
ever made to him, was that he paid his debts
punctually, and sold the produce Of bis orange
groves. The most eflicacious cry raised against
tho National Assembly by the partiSans OF
Napoleon III. at the time of the Coup-dEtat'
was that they received twenty-five francs
day for their services. If so senseless preju-
dice could be put to so practical use at that
day. it is highly probable that the enormous
figure of forty millions can now be employed
to still greater effect by the opponents Oh tue
Orleans pretenders. --

PEACE.

The amicable conclusion Of treaty be-
tween Great Britain and tho United States
seems to have given fresh encouragement and
life to Peace Societies throughout the world.
Although there was no probable danger that
peaceful relations between the two great pow
ers would be suspended, the mere fact that
dispute, which once could have been only
settled by resort to arms, was adjusted on
basis of compromise was rIghtfully held
enough to give great cheer to the friends OF
Peace everywhere. Very soon after the result
of the deliberations at Geneva we're announced
it was decided by the American Peace Society
to hold an international Peace Congress, IL
the cooperation of similar organizations
in Europe could be secured. Stops In
this direction were taken by the Society,
and considerable sums of money were
collected in this country for the purpose OF
defraying the expenses Of the necessary pre-
liminary machinery. The American Society,
which properly ltook leading part In mitia-
ting these proceedings, have suffered serious
loss. The great Boston fire wiped out their
newspaper organ, aud left them comparatively
voiceless. But the newspaper press OF the
country will not suffer so good work to
languish the lack Of special organ will not
be noticed when the journals of the Republic
are all advocates of Peace.
IL the Peace Society need money and
wider fame, why not make their appeal during
Christmas week7 This is the gracious time
in which we commemorate the birth on earth
of the Prince of Peace. 1t is good time TO
press home upon all mankind the humanizinS
and ennobling doctrines which flow from tho
event that all Christendom now celebrates.
Though IL cannot now be said that nations
learn war no more, it is true that the sigma
are favorable for the establishment. OF nobler
rules of international conduct than have ever
before governed the world. The manufacture
of guns, armors, submarine torpedoes and other
offensive and defensive machines does not
cease even now silent but active preparations
for warlike emergencies are carried forward In
some portions of Europe. Possibly the time is
very far off when forts, arsenals and naval
sauadrons shall be dismantled and devoted to
the purposes of Peace. But the world moves
slowly, perhaps-toward the fulfillment OF the
promises given to the race by Him who has
made Of one blood all nations. Peace VIII

most curious in its details tried in this vicinity
for many years, and the testimony has been
very conflicting and circumstantal in its ma
.ture. While there were many acts On the part
of the prisoner which appear inconsistent with
the theory of his innocence, yet strangely
enough the most weighty evidence of the
prosecution tending to prove him guilty has
been picked absolutely to pieces. For instance

It has rarely happened that publishers have had
the opportunity to perform delicatcly thoughtful
and generous an act as that which Messrs. Henry
Holt, Andrew Armstrong, Alfred Houghton, and
John Wiley have undertaken. The sudden
death of Mr. Geo. P. Putnam, and the neces-
sary absence of his son and partner, prac-
tically left his business without supervision
during tho week before the holidays, tho very
harvest for publishers Of the whole year.
These gentlemen have, therefore, with promptness
as consderate as it is graceful stepped forward and
assumed the management Of the business In tho
interest of the firm and for the benefit Of Mr.. Put
MANS family. They Will conduct it wisely and

of fine books will fail to visit his store, in the Asso

A Berlin journal. credited with being
occasionally the medium of semi official COM
munication of the Prussian Government, denies
that any international importance should be
attached to the revocation Of reduced railroad
rates for emigrants from Prussia. This act is
explained as being merely question of in
ternal administration, forced upon the Gov
eminent by considerations of political economy,
and npon the private companies by due re-
gard to their own interests. The American
press, it says, "has distorted the significance
"of this trifing affair" The significance which
has generally been attached to this measure
was one which, combined with others of
a similar character, seemed to establish con-
clusively the fact that the Prussian Govern
ment was endeavOring to Obstruct emigration.
This conclusion is not inconsistent with the
considerations of political economy by which,
it is said, the Prussian Government was
moved, and is one which has not only been
entertained in this country but in Germany
itself. Any proceeding to prevent emigration
is certainly question of domestic admins
tration; but it disapponts the just expecta-
tons which have been raised of the freedom
of emigration to this country.

That an iron church should burn down in
broad daylight, in the central part of great
city Ike Brooklyn, may well discourage arch
fleets and insurance companies. But that is
what has happened to the Brooklyn Taber-
nacle, Of which the Rev. It. Dewitt Talmage
is pastor. Perhaps, however, when we inquire
into all the facts of the case, we shall ma
that radical defects existed in the construction
of the building, which insured Its destruction.
1t is too early to say just where these weak
points were; we hear, to begin with, OF iron
flues cased in wood but careful examina-
ton is needed to make clear the causes OF q
calamity which has come upon pubhc-splrit-
ed congregation, in the demolition OF then
unique church building.
