Yanctons, had an interview with the President

President, he (the Presidency inquired if
there was anything special which they had TO
say to him. The Grass stepped to the front,
and through an in terpreier, said,
"He never had anything against the white
men. You sent for me before, but did not
like to come. You have sent for me again,
and l came. l have seen you. / have been
pleased. We want room in our reservation.
and don't want to be crowded. We will meet
the Great Father, and do what he tells us.
Our people are all working, but are very
poor"
The President inquired as to the nature Of
the land on which the tribes were located and
inquired if anything had been said to them
about moving into the Indian country.
Secretary Cowan replied in the afirma.
tive.
The President, then addressing the Indians.
said he would like to see them on fertile
lands where 1t would be easy for them to
make a living, and where they would be viii
ling to go. On such lands the Government
would send them and learn them to build
houses, whose young especially would be in
structed. 1t was for them to think about
and unless they wanted to 60 be did not want
TO make them. They could 60 back TO their
houses now and talk the matter over with
their people. IT they would not agree to 70
he would not compel them. Above all things
they should be at peace with the white people
who outnumbered them great many ttines,
ane if conflict should come ii would be
much worse for the Indians. He did not
want to fight them, but protect and care for
them.
Above all things, too, they should have
their young people instructed. The white
people were increasing rapidly, and in few
years it would be much worse for the Indians
than now. Anything they wanted now could
be asked of the Commissioner Of Indian AT.
fairs, and the Secretary of the Interior, who
would act for him.
/ The Grass said the land of his reservation
was bad, but he was raised in that country
and wanted to stay there. He knew it was
not good. but wanted to stay on 1t, and did
not want any white man to come on it. They
also wanted Mr.. OConnor, their agent, to re-
main there.

should be made ip agent, and further, that he
did not want to force them from their land.
He would do all he could to instruct them and
protect them, and hoped their young people
