Iowa, that Running Birds band Of Sioux had mas
sacred the garrison at Fort Buford, and that tho
Indians In Eastern Montana were moving on the
war path. He says no such news had reached him,
and the report probably caused by the fact that
large bands OF Sioux Indians were at the MIX River
Agency, having made a treaty OF peace with
Special Agent Simmons, and were waiting there
for It's approval by the department. The Super
intendent writes:-The Indians In this superin-
tendency are perfectly peaceable and quiet.
Never In the history OF the Territory have the va
rtous tribes been so quiet, ana they all express
earnest in their expressions OF good will to the
whites and their desire TO accept what the govern
ment wishes for their welfare Nothing but the
Sioux turning out on the war path can bring about
an Indian war In this Territory.
