PIERRE BUSINESS MEN INVESTIGATE.

FIREARMS DANGEROUS AT
ALL TINES.


pIerrc g. d. Nov 27-After receiving yOur message
we took occasion To- investigate the Messiah craze
From one OF the older officials at the Cheyenne Agency
thirty five miles north Of Pierre, we learned that the
Indians generally nj that agency firmly believe that
the Messiah Is 10 appear when the grass Is next a
fingers height At that time all the Indians VINO nave
heretofore passed to the Happy Hunting Grounds WILL
n &, thought return to this earth, and the white men
uilI he removed by tho Messiah which Messiah Is sup
posed To be the Jesus Christ OF lie New Testament
The Indians indulge In orgies or what are caieh ghoSt
Dances They dance around pole or some central
object until they become exhausted In this excited con
diton they visions: departed friends once more
appcar before them also claim In such visions
to have seen the Messiah himself. There IS no war
like feature connected with the proceedings and nothing
In tho belief or dance itself which gives grounds for
fear Of rebellion the part Of the Indians
The Rev. T. L. Riggs, who has lived with the Sioux
Indians all his life says that there is nothing alarming
in the craze that they nearly always have some
craze or other this one, however. Is more widespread
and seems to have deeper hold upon them than
former crazes. He states that the Indians firmly be
licved last spring that the Messiah would appear at
that Cine: that they are something like Advcn'ts In
their belief; they set time when certain event u
TO happen and In 1t does not occur at that time
they good naturally another for II TO to
pass. This belief, In his opinion, like other cra1cH
common among the Indians. will In time wear Itself
ont 1t cannot be suppressed, either by arguments or
force, because the belief Is already too deeply rootd
In their Ignorant minds. The Christanzed Indians
generally keep aloof from the dances. While they do
not believe that the Messiah will come they
thccss somewhat disturbed and alarmed. being super
stitious by nature and education. The Indians arr
like lot Of boys. The liberty and license allowed
them the they take. II they are held strictly to
the rules of the agency, and trivial disorders ar

danger is likely to arise.
The foolish custom of permitting Indians to have
firearms st prevails among the Sioux, and until this
custom Is suppressed danger from Indians will be
Hooked for The fact that large number OF Indians
supplied with firearms aud ammunition have not for
some years caused dcpredations threatened life i
a proof either OF their peaceful character the good
discipline under which they are kept. Some alarm Is
felt by persons living among the Indians because 10
