MANY BATTLES.
The Sioux and Chippewa
Tribes Smoke the Pipe
of Peace.

Ashland, Wis, Sept. r.
An important historical event
has just occurred in the city.
The Sioux and Chippewa /,
two Of the most powerful
tribes of American Indians and
bitter enemies for centuries,
smoked the pipe of peace.
The chiefs of both tribes were
present. The spot where the
pipe OF peace was smoked is
the scene of one of the most
bloody battles between these
two tribes in the memorable
campaign. Of 1912. Chief
Cloud Of the Chippewas made
an address, in which he said:
IN times bygone we have
been enemies. but we are now
with good feeling and our
hearts are as pure as the flags
we carry. While we love our
forefathers, we are proud q
advance in civilization and
greet you in the dawn Of q
new era as friends"
Rocky Bear and Flat Iron
responded for the Sioux. The
action will be officially ratified
by the different tribes of Sioux
in the west.
