TIE Indian Treaty.,

Some Of the Government organs are pub
fishing, officially the text of the treaty made
Mt Ruby Valley in 1868, by Governors Nye and
Doty, Commissioners on the part of the United
States, and the principal men and warriors"
OF the ShOshone bands. There was a blank
left in the original treaty which was filled by
the Senate in 1866, which action was finally
ratified by the Indian chiefs in 1869. As the
grounds claimed by these Indians are included
within Elko county, We give the principal
points of the treaty.
1t provides for the immediate cessation Of
all hostilities, and the maintenance of lasting
friendship; the routes of travel shall be open
and free to all travellers; il any depredations
are At any time committed, the offenders shall
be delivered up to the proper officers Of the
United Rates to be punished military posts,
and stations for troops, stage and telegraph
companies. May be established anywhere in
the country. and tho railroad may be located
without molestation; the Shoshone country
may he explored and prospocted for minerals.
and mining and agricultural settlements estab-
lished; mills erected and timber taken for
their use, as also for building and other pur-
poses.
The boundaries of the country claimed and
occupied by said bands are defined ms follows:
On the north by tho Wongogads mountains
and Shoshone river valley; west, by the Smith
Creek mountains; south, by the Colorado DIES.
ert; east. by Salt Lake. Said bands agree b
go on reservations whenever the President
orders.
In consideration Of this peace. and the loss
Of game caused by the travel, the United
States promise to pay to said bands five thou
sand dollars annually, for twenty years, in
such articles, including cattle. ms tho Presi.
dent may consider proper.
