THE APACHE WAR.-Very different
from the conduct Of the Modoc war has
been that waged against the Apaches iu
Arizona. This bold band of rowing sav.
ages has been the terror of the country
for years. They are fearless, intractable
and cunning, and their raids have cost
the people and the government more than
any other tribe.
The Apaches recently began their dep.
radations in Arizona territory, and the
government sent troops against them,
Gen. Crook commenced tho expedition,
and he made the unaccountable mistake
to believe that the government mean,
business. Accordingly he matured his
plans, prepared for action, and went .,
them in business like way.
The result of this course was TO speed
lily reduce 70 submission the most reckless
red devils that roam tho prairies. On
the 9th inst, two of the worst bands oi
the Apaches surrendered and laid down
their arms, declaring that they did &C
not because they wanted peace, but be
cause they Wese afraid to do otherwise
For evenly years these bands have de6ed
all the attempts Of The government te
subdue them.

Of wisdom and Crook its fnges again

riot. We have heard Of bread riots, and
many other kinds of riots, but We believe
this is the first beer riot that has come
under our consideration. 1t seems that
the price of this, to Germans, necessary
beverage was increased, and public spirit
arose against an encroachment upon the
enjoyment Of their favorite drink. Twelve

peace was indicted eth epssrrspied
despotisSu, Louisiana 10 nov. A cover.
nor that ga. not elected, and sho is de
tested ,, the people, .ois,ed upos them
by a federal court and sustained by Q
President no less tcrupulous, it seems
ought to b enough for one free state
to bear; but carrying ou. the plau upon
which he was made governor, Kellogg
has inauguratcd an under and worse des
potism than the one that placed him 10
the gubern,torial chair. Feeling that
their liberties were being taken sway,
and that they had no authorized stste
government according to the meaning
and spirit OF theis state and the national
constitutions, it is not strange that q
people who have beer taught to believe
that they are free, should refuse to sup.
port despo,ism thrust upon them and
50 feeling they determined not to pay
any taxes into dynasty born Of corrupt
political court and responsible to nobody
for it's actions. kellogg determined that
they should pay taxes, and the result
has Been the imprisonment Of New
Orleans merchant sihont trial, judge or
jury, and his store closed, because he
refused to pay license tax.
Now whether Mr.. Booth who is also
a state senator We believe-was right IN
refusing to pay his license, We will not
consider he doubtless had as clear
right for bis refusal, as the federal court
had to inflict Louisiana with a governor
and other officials who were not elected
BY the people Of that state. But under
what laws of this country was Nj. Booth
imprisoned in ielon's cell because OF
his refusal to pay a license? Concedng
that the present state government of
Louisiana is the only rghful one.-which
every one knows is not the case-had it
no law to resort to in the case of this
refusal withou, the use Of threats and
violence? 1t certainly had. And was
that law Imprisonment in felou's cell ?
No; that was only the resort Of despot.
ism that should not be permitted to exist
in country like ours. The only proper
way would have been to have had Mr..
Booth indicted before the proper court,
from whose judgment he might take
appeal to higher. But there is where
the shoe pnches. Will the state govern
ment of Louisiana stard the test before
the Supreme Court Of the United States ?
Its despo,ism will not be questioned
by the President, and the resistance Of
the people in not complying with its
demands, however prsposterou', will only
bring trouble upon their own heads.
The President has all at once become too
much of a state rights man to interfere
unless called upon by the governor, aud
as the governor is the man who is doing
the mischief, everything runs along
smoothly-for the despo,sm. The
people may cry out for aid from the fed
eral government in vain. 1t is the Presi-
dents OK that Is doing the goriug, SO the
ueople will have to stand it.
