he issued orders for military expenditure, which were not recognized
at Washington, and men began to understand that the army in the West
was gradually assuming that irresponsible military position, which
in disturbed countries and in times of civil war has so frequently
resulted in a military dictatorship. Then there arose a clamour
for the removal of General Fremont. A semi-official account of his
proceedings, which had reached Washington from an officer under his
command, was made public; and also the correspondence which took
place on the subject between the President and General Fremont's
wife. The officer in question was thereupon placed under arrest, but
immediately released by orders from Washington. He then made official
complaint of his General, sending forward a list of charges in which
Fremont was accused of rashness, incompetency, want of fidelity of
the interests of the Government, and disobedience to orders from
head quarters. After a while the Secretary of War himself proceeded
from Washington to the quarters of General Fremont at St. Louis, and
remained there for a day or two, making or pretending to make inquiry
into the matter. But when he returned he left the General still in
command. During the whole month of October the papers were occupied
in declaring in the morning that General Fremont had been recalled
from his command, and in the evening that he was to remain. In the
mean time they who befriended his cause, and this included the whole
West, were hoping from day to day that he would settle the matter
for himself and silence his accusers, by some great military success.
General Price held the command opposed to him, and men said that
Fremont would sweep General Price and his army down the valley of the
Mississippi into the sea. But General Price would not be so swept,
and it began to appear that a guerilla warfare would prevail; that
General Price, if driven southwards, would reappear behind the backs
of his pursuers, and that General Fremont would not accomplish all
that was expected of him with that rapidity for which his friends had
given him credit. So the newspapers still went on waging the war, and
every morning General Fremont was recalled, and every evening they
who had recalled him were shown up as having known nothing of the

 in disquieted countries and in times of civil war has thus frequently 
 resulted in a military dictatorship. Then there arose a clamor 
 for the removal of General Fremont. A semi - official account of his
