the Pale Face Stranger


Few white mon know how 70 trade
with an Indian" remarked Q. y. ware
OF Denver 70 Rocky Mountain Nsws
reporter. Mr.. Ward has made study
OF Indians for ten years past. II once
met an indian with a magnificent noun
tain lion skin. He was willing to part
with the ornament, but his price was
too high. 1 offered him $3.50. but he
Indignantly refused. Later, on the
same day, after had learned TO trade
with an Indian. bought the skin for
$3.50"
The secret of trading with the Indian.
according TO Mr.. Ward, Ia to appear In
different. The most successful trader In
the one who goes with supply OF the
same article he Is most dcsiroua OF buy
Ing. The Indian sees that the stranger
has had experience, and negotiations
are carried on upon a strictly business
basis. An Indian refused $40 for bow
and arrow. IL was bought for 81 by a
man who carried several bows and ar
rows in his hand. This willy individual
leased the supply from store In order
TO impress his copper-colored friend,
and he succeeded.
"The Indian" said Mr.. Ward, In
speaking of traits of character he has
observed In his red friends. "is one of
the most faithful followers in tho world
II he has confidence In you. II he takes
n liking TO you, there Ia nothing you can
ask he will not do. II he dlslikes you.
the less you have to do with that In
dian the better.
"The Indian is very much abused
fellow. and he has never been treated
as he deserved to be by the white man.
