ENTERPRISING TRIBE
The ChemehueVis Indians Have
Faith in Civilization.
Their Leading Men Believe That
What IL Good for White Men
Must Also Be Beneficial
to Red Men.
Especial Arizona Letter.1


IT COATED in two places on the
Colorado river, is to be found this
almost unknown tribe of the
North American Indians. One small
band is on the California side of the
river, near Fort Mohave, north of the
Needles, and the other is about rs
miles south of Needles and has small
ranches on both sides of the river.
Few people know anything about them
and strange stories are told as to their
origin and classified ton.
Last February I made trip down
the Colorado river IN boat, from
Needles to Yuma, and spent several
days with the Chenehuevis. I then
found out that they are not separate
and distinct people. They are simply
renegade Paints, who, tired of living
in the sandy wastes of southern Ne
vada, where water was scarce and
food often more SO, determined to
emigrate to more favorable region.
They sent out some of their wisest and
best men as explorers to "spy out the
land" These men visited the Mohave
Indians on the Colorado river, and,
finding the two unoccupied regions in
the territory practically controlled
by the Mohaves, made an amicable ar
rangement with them, whereby they
were to live in peace and security as
their near neighbors on condition that
when called upon they were to assist
the Mohaves in war. For some time
they were called Paints, but the lead
ers of that people repudiated them.
They were not Paints. They had for
saken the land of their forefathers.
They had made friends with the hated
''fish-ea ting Mohaves," and this was
