very fiat failure of the commission at
Standing Rock agency. The failure
may be attributed to many things. but
chief of all reasons for it is the fact that
the members Of the commission were

idea the Indians were simple, guile
less lot of people, and that almost any
argument would be convincing. And
so. without any preliminary investiga-

settled down at the point where the
