An ~1cltink 1hte OF western Adventure
Written for the Evening Journal
After the battle Of Clearwater in which
Chief Joseph and Lookingglass were
beaten to avoid pursuit they took to the
mountains Nothing daunted, Howard de-
termined to pursue them. Casting aside
all surplus baggage on the July IA, 1877,
the ascent up the mountains began. From
Idaho to Montana over the Rocky Noun
tains there is trail called the Lo Lo pass.
1t was a miserable march camping in the
snow on the mountains. driving stakes in
the ground when you laid down at night
to keep from rolling over precipices.
Laying against stakes on an in
cline wasn't an extra soft bed.
The mountains appeared at night
to be enveloped in an icy mist. Hugging
log fires at night, the snow and sleet
peting you, who wouldn't be a soldierl
The pass generally was so narrow that
we could only walk single file. We laid
down hungry, marched all day hungry,
and got up hungry. Hard tack and a
piece OF bacon day don't breed gout,
but to offset this hunger and misery,
General Howard, when he could find a
place level enough to pitch his tent,
would have prayer meeting Howard, by
some hook or crook, got courier ahead
of the Indians and notified the settlers
that the hostile Indians were coming.
At Lodge Pole there was one company
of soldiers. Howard told them to fcrtify
the outlet Of the pass and to hold it at
all hazards until he came up. The set
tiers rallied and with the soldiers forti-
fed the pass In due time Joseph ap-
peared and was surprised to see the pass
blocked. He held consultation with
his chiefs. Then he came forward with
flag Of truce and told the settlers that
he was not al war with them. He only
wanted TO go through their valley on his
way to the buffalo country, north and
west of the Missouri river. If they would
let him pass peaceably, he would
pledge them on the word of
Joseph, word that was
never yet broken, that he would molest
no one but if, on the other hand. he had
to fight his way through he would leave
the valley desert and would spare no
one, but murder, pilage and burn. What
say my white brothers2 The settlers
wanted time to think it over MOI
answered the willy chief, time to me is
precious He had found out that the
coyotes, as he called the foot soldiers
were pressing him hard. The settlers
thought of their wives and children and
against the bitter protest Of the handful
OF soldiers who had no wives or children,
allowed the hostiles to pass. Howard
and his legions came pressing eagerly
forward, glad that their winter trip in
summer time was over, glad that for the
second time they had brought the sav.
ages to bay. Spreading out before them
there was the valley, like a panorama,
where full and plenty could be had. but
bitter was our disappointment when we
found that Joseph, Lookingglass, White
Bird and their savage hosts had disap.
