CIvILIzNG. party of the Lewis river
Indians were in Vancouver on Monday, Wis.,
iting the U. S. Land Office, with the
avowed purpose of taking number of home
steads. These Indians, about so in number,
are the remnant Of tribe that always made
that stream their home, and they realize the
fact that if they are not to be crowded off
from it they must drive their pegs the same
as the white man does, and they are going
to do it. They find some difficulty, as they
want to locate in a body, those not already
having farms, and will not get settled down
for some time yet, as they do not act hastily.
