frontage de Roquefort had a name in
the days of Pliny, and doubtless formed
a part Of many a Roman banquet. In
the middle ages R%oquefort was invested
by the parliament of Toulouse with the
monopoly of making it, and although
the industry has spread over an area of
twenty miles round. Roquefort still
maintains its ancient position, making
to-day n quantity OF cheese nearly
twenty times as great as it did at the
lightning of the century.
The long continued prosperity is said
TO be due to the extraordinary charac-
ter of the place. The village stands on
the summit Of a steep hill, whose sides
are honeycombed with cayerns which
the course of nature has made in the
calcareous limestone. These caverns,
which, in prehistoric times are believed
to have been inhabited by men of the
polished stone period, have, for many
centuries. been used as store houses,
wherein the cheeses are kept cool dur
ing the summer heat. Attempts to
make artificial caverns elsewhere have
o succeeded. some mysterious zephyrs
OF most refreshing breath appearing to
play about those of Roquefort at any
rate, the belief that they do SO Is n per

DEFENDING GEN. oRook.

Col. j. II. Stanton, paymaster United
States army, who has been with Gen.
Crook in many hard thought campaigns
against the Indians, writes as follows to
the Salt Lake Tribune
The article published in the Tribune of
Sunday last on the ARIZONA Apaches' is
about as unjust a review of the situation
there, and of the operations of the army
in that territory, as could well be written.
II is difficult TO characterize such an arti-
Gle by its proper name. without using Ian
guage that is not common among gentle
men. In so far as the article speaks of
Gen. Crook, and of his administration Of
Affairs in that department, it is to be OBJ
served that there is not one word true in
the whole letter. When Il man has spent
more than twenty years of the best part
of his life in fighting and dealing with In
dams when he bears many wounds upon
his person As evidence of his courage and
loyalty to duty; when his record shows
more Indians ~subjugated and brought to
civilized methods than that Of any other
general officer of the army, is it fair for
him to be assailed as in this letter? Gen.
Crook is a man absolutely without per-
sonal ambition, 20 far as the performance
of duty IL concerned, and ] think every
officer of the army who has ever served
with him will bear me out in this asser-
ton. No hardship, no cold or hunger, no
difficulties, however appalling, ever de
tered him from the performance of his
duty To the government No matter
how long the marches, nor whether in
the burning sands of old Mexico or the
frozen wastes of Dakota; no one has ever
heard him murmur nor have they seen
him rushing into public prints to tell of
his campaigns or to defend his policy. if
he had one, The government from which
he received his orders has made no com
plant of the results he obtained. On the
contrary, it has trusted him before any
others, 1t has trusted in his long expe-
Renee, his sagacity and intelligence, and
his well known ability to deal with savage
race, and it has not misplaced it's conf
dence, In Oregon, in Arizona and in
Dakota, whenever he had control of the
operations against the Indians, he has in
variably been successful. His policy of
employing Indians against Indians has
done more to break up hostile tribes than
any other plan ever before adopted, and
all Of his campaigns and labon against
Indians haye been conceived and carried
out OF broad principles of Justice both to
the Indian and the country. While heis
not a lover of the Indians, he believes
them to be human beings, and to be, like
the whites, entitled to some rights. The
author OF the letter referred to probably
knows very little of what he writes, and
it is not improbable that he belongs to the
ring Of Indian robbers against whom Gen.
Crook has waged amore relentless warfare
than against the Indians themselves.
