the Courier" presents as a hard
nut for the RECORD to crack. The
efforts of Coulson to procure a sub
sidy from the people of Bozeman-
for that is really the drift OF his
overtures-wilI yet prove bitter
pill for the Courier" to swallow.
Coulson at one time, not very long
ago, attempted in q like manner to
inveigle the people of this section,
and our merchants came very near
falling into the trap and thereby
compromising the freightlng inter
ests of the Territory, Failing here
he gave his services to the Carroll
people and now, disgusted with
the losses he has sustained on the
Carroll route, his attentions are
turned to Bozeman, with thee hope
Of making a successful raid upon
the purses Of our neighbors OF East
ern Montana.

And as this Improvement can by
no means be considered a local mat,
ter, as it will directly enhance the
general prosperity Of the Territory,
We expect to hear that the last
to Delegate Maglnn1s
on his departure tor Washington
will be to make every possible ct
fort to procure an appropriation, at
this session, for the Improvement
of the Upper Missouri "The Way

contain the following in reference
to the Missouri river and the pros
poets of Benton and vicinity:
"The river, without any channel
improvements, has saved US tens Of
thousands of dollars in forcing low
rates over roads during the naVi-
gable season, and its effect would be
still more appreeiable were it made
available all the year round. But
this is not the only advantage. Ben
ton is in the heart Of an immense
country adapted to the raising Of

country that is fast becoming al

THE BLACKFOOT AGENCY.

We are in receipt of a commune
cation in reply tothe letter Of Rev.
Hugh Duncan, wbichappearedin the
Helena Herald" Of the 14th inst,
in reference to that Strange story.
The writer corroborates the state
ment made by Jack Blunt IN the
RECORD Of the Cd inst, and presents
extracts from the official documents
Of the Blackfoot Agency, for several
years back, in proof Of his asser-
tions. It seems rather surprising
that those writer's who assail the
exposer of the affairs at the Black
foot Agency should ignore the ez-
istence of official statistics and re-
ports and rely solely upon their
own memory for the means Of re-
ply or denial of the statements con-
tanned iD the exposition letter IN
question. Yetsuch is the case, and
as our correspondentremarks, 'Un-
til the defenders Of those frauds
break down the solid argument
presented by tie official records IN
supporter the statements contained
In the charge against the Agency
until these charges are met by q
more substantial denial than the
say SO Of an Indian, the public must
conclude that the subject requires
the attention Of Congress"
Our correspondent gives add
tional information regarding tbs
Blackfeet, Blood, and Piegan tribe:
Of Indians, that may be OF service
to Mr.. Duncan: !" It is claimeC
that by actual count the number Q
Indians at the Agency this spfin}
was $40. Now this Is sheer non
sense. Why, the Blood tribe doe
not, all told, number LOCO soIils
and only one Blood chief Vas At fb'
Agency this spring. fhe BIaes
foot tribe has been greatly asdaee
during the past few years and 9
The Benton record. [volume] (Benton, M.T. [Mont.]) 1875-1879, 1875-10-23

not now number as many as the
bloods. And | know that at the
time the count was made at the
Agency by Mr.. Duncan, that over
two hundred lodges were eDeamp-
ed on British soil. If an Indians
word is good, this can be proved by
over five hundred Assinaboin
thieves who had to 60 all the way
to Fort Mcleod to steal the Black
feet's horses. At no period with
in the last five years, have the
entire tribe of Piegans been at their
Agency. They have roamed on
British soil, and even last month
over one hundred aud fifty lodges
were counted while camped under
the wing Of her Majesty's Mounted
Police to-day, nearly every Pie
Gan Indian is in the British domin-
ions, The denial Of Mr.. Duncan,
as far as numbers are concerned,
looks rather dubious-a little more
Of that will let the cat out Of the
bag. One word concerning the
Blood chief, Running Rabbit. The
twenty lodges, or families, th,-t Mr.
Duncan says accompanied that
chief to the Agency this spring,
we're not Blood Indians. They
we're Piegans. Running Rabbit is
never accompanied by Blood In
dians on his visits to his white rela.
tives at the Agency These are
all. positive facts which had better
be accepted in good taste by the
Indian Ring writer's, for deny then
they cannot. Mr.. Duncan desires
to know the name of the writer Q

sirous Of knowing that gentleman.

UPPER MISSOURI NAVIGATION.

The latest accounts from Carroll
of the arrival and departure up
stream of heavily laden craft at
this season, is conclusive confirma.
ton Of the repeated assertions Of
the RECORD, that freight can be
landed above at any time at which
It can be delivered at Carroll. It
goes further even; it shows that
freight has been delivered later
above than at Carroll. This will
forever close the question upon
that point, and it should be an IN
eentive towards immediate action
towards obtaining the necessary
means to improve the navigation
Of the the Missouri to this point.
