 The Chicago Beer Riots
Boone had a bone to pick with the Germans; he resented the manner in which they had formed their own neighborhoods, churches, trade unions and even theater.
Boone was further exacerbated by their alliance with the Irish, a group looked down upon throughout the country.
There was no doubt who Boone was targeting; it was all those small taverns located on the North Side of town where the Germans lived near their beloved breweries and close to their Irish allies.

 Lager Beer Riot
Once elected, Mayor Levi Boone and the new council majority hiked liquor license fees while also shortening license terms from one year to three months.
Expecting resistance, Mayor Boone “reformed” the city's police force: tripling its size, refusing to hire immigrants, requiring police to wear uniforms for the first time, and directing them to enforce an old, previously ignored ordinance requiring the Sunday closing of taverns and saloons.
In March 1856, a heavy German and Irish turnout defeated the nativists, causing the $50 liquor license to be restored.
