IffE NJ " fOhtt Nv IOIIIItN,
The Anti-Monopoly movement is one of
much significance. The last quarter Of n
century has witnessed profound aud rapid
change in the structure both Of our Govern
ment and society. In 1850 the distinguish
ing feature Of American life was the COM
parauvely general distribution OF wealth.
Millionaires were few, and they had Cener-
ally amassed their fortunes In the Legitimate
walks of commerce and Industry Money
bags had not then been felt as power in
politics. During the war period and since q
momentous change has taken place. The
wealth OF the country has not increased
rapid as its increase has been-as fast as it
has passed into the hands of 4 new class
which tolls not, but which lays hold Of the
wealth produced by the country through
the means afforded it by incorporated mo-
nopoles. state constitutions and laws have
been cunuingly changed to help the railway
and telegraph kings in their easy task of
swallowing up the produce Of labor, and to
hinder the people from taking steps to pre-
vent the robbery to which they are subjected
through freight pools and the other swim
ding devices Of the transportation monopo-
lists.
The Gouds and Vanderbilts have also
gone into politics, corruptng the very
sources OF government, and placing their
tools in the Legislatures Of the States, and OF
the Nation. Yet the old parties have
been rotten and subservient the Repubi.

Democrats afraid to offend the far-reaching
money power The Thurman Pacific Rail.
road acts stand on the Federal statute books
as the one exception to the general rule of
party subseryiency to corporate influence
Upon the great question of reclaiming the
vast domain of lapsed land grants Congress
has been criminally negligent, and it is evi.
dent that the necessary legislation will never
be had unless forced by powerful uprising
OF public indignation.
The convention of the Anti-Monopoly
League at Saratoga last week was strong in
numbers and in the character of its delegates.
Its purpose being to compel the old parties,
or at least one of them, to nominate candi-
dates favorable to the cause of the people, it
authorized the State committee to put
| ticket in the field, if the candidates of both
parties should be tools of the monopolists.
This is doubtless the true policy at the out
set, but long before the great struggle is
decided the creed formulated at Saratoga
(Which we make no apology for reprinting
| elsewhere, since it has escaped the columns
of our neighbors) must become the centre of
contest between the political organizations
| of this country.

The public will be glad to learn that steps
are being taken by the society for the Pre-
ventiOn Of Cruelty to Animals to SOC whether
the bogus fox.hunting as practiced by New
port sn0bs is not liable to prosecution under
the Rhode Island statute which provides for
punishment for torturing or cruelty kill
ing any animal. There Is some genuine
fox-hunting in Maryland, Virginia, and
North Carolina, where wild foxes are hunted
by packs of hounds and horsemen. But the
turning loose from bag of captive animal
bred for the purpose, to be chased and torn
to pieces by dogs, in order to enable the rich
idiots OF the "Queens County Hunt" and
others of their sort, to make themselves
ridiculous by feebly initiating the fayorite
sport of British aristocrats, is unredeemed
cruelty. The S. p. C. A. Is sometimes rs.ponEi-
BILE for absurd acts, but the suppression of
this mangling Of tame foxes would atone for
many Of its mistakes.

In the careless performance of outpost
and picket duty may bo traced the real cause
for many Of the disasters that befell our
armies during the Rebellion. II required
ceaseless vigilance on the part Of officers in
command Of outpost guards to prevent the
men from taking of their cartridge. boxes
and hanging them on the fences, or going
oil to farm-hOuses for something to eat. The
late surprise Of the Egyptian army shows
how loosely and imperiectly Arabi's out
posts guards, if he had any, were posted.
OF course, in our opinion, when anything
like equal numbers were engaged in con
test with the British infantry, tho Egyptians
never had any possible chance of winning
a battle. But when such troops are, in
addition to other disadvantage, allowed to
be surprised, there was little else for them
to do but to run away, and they did that very
well, though the result shows that good
many Of them did not start soon enough,

CROOK IN ARIZONA.

General Crook has assumed command of
the Department of Arizona. The bare state
ment carries with it confidence in the present
and hope for the future. The people of that
Territory believe in him. The Indians fear
and respect him. The faith of the people,
the fear and respect of the indians, are well
founded. Confidence is based upon his
former success. The Apaches fear him be-
cause in days gone by he followed the per-
sistently hostile and bad with the bosom of
"thigh." They respect him because lie
never deceived them. lie made them few
pledges, but those few he redeemed. When
he promised them either bread or bullets he
bond. When, eleven years ago, he went
for the first time to Arizona, the groans of
dying settlers shot down upon their own
doorsteps were heard throughout the land,
the odOr of burning human flesh filled the
air, and hideous specimens of mutilated
bodies We're strewn along the principal
routes of travel Peace commissioners
would make "peaoen - with the wretches
who perpetrated these horrors, Offering
them the shelter of the reservations where
they supplied themselves with arms and am
munition only to return to their old haunts.
Crook changed all this; his scouting parties
made map of Arizona look like fashion
able pattern-sheet that accompanies liar
per'S Bdsar. He became to the Apache n
cloud by day and = pillar of fire by night.
He followed his vile foes in season and out
of season, ON the mountain tops and down
into their cayerns, until they cried for peace.
Then he made peace with them, and they
tried the old game. A few under the leader
ship Of two notorious old wretches, DeltchG
and Chunt2, having laid by supply of
ammunition, left their reservation, murdered
the unsuspecting settlers near by, and took
to the mountains again.
Crook sent his Apache spies into their
camp and notified them that all except the
chiefs might return, provided they brought
with them the heads of their leaders, who
would never again be allowed to return
alive. Meantime the White Wolf" as
the Apachts called him, was again upon
their trail. A few weeks more and back
came the renegades, bringing with them
the heads of their chiefs-ghastly pledges
of peace that was not soon broken. This
stopped peace-makng as a convenience to
the Indians.
Times may have changed since Crook was
in Arizona before, but lac has not. He is
the same earnest, honest man, the modest
unassuming, but stern, stubborn, and ac.
cOmplished soldier that he has always been.
Besides he carries with him now what he did
not have before, the confidence OF the hui
manitarians of the East. They believe in
him, for they have seen him fight just as
earnestly, stubbornly, and successfully for
the rights Of the Indian as he had bafore
done for the rights of the frontiersman. All
that a man of his character and a soldier
Of his fibre can do for an afflicted Territory
will be done. Give him an opportunity, n
fair field aud free Rght, and he will soon
give Arizona time TO knit up the rayelled
sleeve of war and enter upon new era Dt
peace.
