Of the band have moved gradually to the
western outskirts of their country. and
established themselves at Ottertail lake.
These now number some three hundred,
They hunt altogether upon Sioux land,
as recognised by the lines established by
the treaty at Prairie du Chen in
1925.
The northern or Red lake dirision.--
Ia this division are embraced all the re-
naming bands. dwelling in the United
States. which have descended from the
main trunk of that tribe, who, making
their way through the Sault Ste Marie,
spread along the south shore of Lake
Superior, and from La Pointc scattered
over the country Of their present occu-
pancy by way Of the St. Louis river and
Sandy lake. 3a
The fact Of their receiving no annui-
ties draws distinct line of demarcation
between this and the other divisions of
the Objibwas. ID
Their principal villages are at Pembi-
ma and at Red, Cass, and Winnipeg
lakes. From a partial census taken in
1916 by j. P. Hays, Esp, sub agent at
La Pointe, their number was estimated
at twelve hundred. oT
The Red lake and Pembina bands de-
rive their subsistence chiefly from agri-
culture. To this mode of life they have
been led by the persuasions of their ex-
cellent missionaries, and by the exam
pie Of the northern half-breeds, with
whom they have frequent communication.
According TO estimates Of their traders,
they will this year produce not less than
two thousand bushels Of corn '.-i
In the winter season, they move their
camps west Of the Red river, to hunt
the buffalo, which still abound in that
region. In summer, some join the hunt
ing caravans of the Red river half
breeds. They have lived in a state of
constant warfare with the upper Sissi-
ton bands of Sioux, and only in obedi-
ence to the wishes of government have
relrained during the past summer from
fitting out war parties.
Notwithstanding the boundaries of the
different northern tribes were plainly
marked and defined by the treaty at
Prairie du Chen in 1926, the Red lake
bands and the Piilagers claim, bv title
of conquest and actual possession, Il
large tract of country lying west of Red
river. This matter, at the present time,
is much agitated among these bands:
and, as their head chiefs were not pres
ent to represent their interests at the
convention Of Prairie du Chen, the
claim perhaps deserves consideration.
The craftsmanship among the Red
lake and Pembna bands is a fruitful
subject. VA ,cunje-guon has for some
years been the chief recognised by gov
ernment; but he is represented as a
savage of limited influence with his
bands, and not belonging to the heredi-
tary family of chiefs. Wa-irush-kia-ik-a,
or Crooked ARM" is the hereditary
chief, and is said to be much respected
by his fellows.
