THE AGREEMENT WITH THE CROWS

THE AGREEMENT WITH THE CROWS.
The bill ratifying an agreement with the
Grow Indians, which has passed the Senate,
is an important one, and the fact of it's pas
sage is cheering. The Crows are ''good In
dams" and rendered the government ex-
cellent service in it's war with the Sioux.
They own some land in which there is gold,
and the whites want it. AS long ago as May,
1880, a delegation of the tribe went to Wash
ington and made an agreement to sell about
seventeen hundred thousand acres, subject to
ratification of the agreement according to
treaty by the adult males of the tribe.
When they got home the tribe did not wish
to sell quite as much, which made necessary
a new agreement, which was duly executed
on the part of the tribe in June, 1880, and
has since been waiting for action by Congress
The amount to be coded by the new agree
ment is about fifteen hundred thousand
acres. The Crows have been growing I'M
easy at the long delay, and the Secretary of
the Interior, with the Commissioner of In
dian Affairs, have been urgent for prompt ac-
ton in order to avoid threatening trouble
Mr.. Dawes called up the bill Wednesday, and
making a statement of the circumstances, Sc
cured its prompt passage
In the agreement made with the Crows
they covenant to relinquish the land for GER
tain considerations, the first of which is
"That the government of the United States
cause the agricultural lands remaining in our
reservation to be properly surveyed and divid-
ed among us IN seyeralty in the proportion
hereinafter mentioned, and to issue patents to
us respectively therefor SO soon as the necessa-
ry laws are passed by Congress" The allot-
ment that shall be made to or for each mem
Der of the tribe is set forth, and it is stipu-
lated that the lands SO allotted shall not be
allienable or subject to incumbrance or taxa
ton of any kind for twenty-five years, and
may see fit to remove the restrictions which
shall be incorporated in each patent" There
are other considerations, one of them being
the payment by the government for twenty
five years of $50, 900 year.
It is a significant fact that the members of
this tribe are willing to part with large part
of their reservation in consideration of OBJ
tanning sure titles to farming lands from
which they cannot be driven, and the passage
of the bill by the Senate indicates that there
is to be no more serious opposition in that
body to the policy of giving the Indians
patents to their lands in severalty.
