Gen. Crook, who recently
made the successful raid into

expressed the opinion that the

believe that he is right and hui
mainly demands that we should
feed them in preference to fight
ing them. The most of the
troubles with the Indians are
created by white desperadoes.
These desperate characters rob,
plumber and outrage the Indians
and then when the latter retail
ate, as they often do; the aid of
the government is Invoked to
put them down. We venture
the assertion that in a great ma
iofity Of cases, the Indian wars

Before the war, he stood at the
head of the New Orleans bar
which was confessedly one of
the ablest in the United States.
He served for twelve years in
the United States Senate and
ranked among the leading lights
in that intellectual body. He
was a great orator and whenev
er he spoke, his audience was
charmed and delighted with his
grand and eloquent utterances.
He held a position in MI Davis
cabinet during the entire war
and possessed in the highest de-
gree his confidence. When the
war ended he went to London,
England, and engaged in the
practice of the law. His great
learning and eminent ability
soon brought him a large prac.
tice and he rapidly accumulated
a large fortune. At the time of
his quitting practice he stood
at the head of the English bar.
