Beard did not wait for an introduction, but

SIOUX INDIANS
IN BIG COUNCIL
BLACK HILLS TREATY DE-
NOUNCED AS ILLEGAL.
Close Corporation Formed on the Six
Reservations to Push Claims |
Against the General Government
Grievances to Be Placed in Hands
of Indian Rights Association.

Sioux Falls, S. D., Aug. 1.-The most
important council held by the Sioux In
dams since the cession to the government
in 1889 of H. 900, 900 acres of land lying
between the Missouri river and
the Black Hills, was held at
the point where Cherry creek
empties into Bad river, In the south
western corner of the Cheyenne River
reservation. All of the Sioux agencies
and tribes were represented it being esti-
mated that the council was attended by
from 5000 to 5000 Indians.
The most important development was
In relation to the alleged irregularities of
the Black Hills treaty, it having been dis
covered, as the result of statements made
by leading chiefs at the council, that the
agitation in regard to the Black Hills
treaty has caused the Sioux Indians to
form one of the most complete organiza-
tons in Indian history.
1t appears that society exists on each
OF the Sioux reservations--of which there
are six-with a president, secretary and
soldiers" so called by the Indians. 1t
is the duty of the president to call reg
ular meeting of the society, and the duty
OF the soldiers to collect food and money
TO defray the expense of the society on
that particular reservation.
When general council of these reserva-
ton societies is called, president and
complete set of officers is elected to pre-
Side over theh general council of dele
gates.
He Dog. one of the leading Sioux on
the Pine Ridge reservation addressed the
council, and said that the society on that
reservation had among its membership
over $50 soldiers, who thus far had col
lected over $1,000.
He said further that the only manner
In which the Indians could secure their
rights was to stand closely united and
work theoretically for the government to
right the wrong which had been done
them when the rich Black Hills region
was taken away from them.
The grievances of the Indians in re-
gard to the Black Hills treaty were set
forth by Big Name, venerable Sioux on
the Lower Brule reservation
The Sioux who are pushing the matter
are unanimously In favor of placing their
grievances in the hands of the Indian
Rights association.

: Des Moines, Iowa, Aug lex Mayor
James NJ .Brenton was probably fatally
injured in a runaway accident on Locust
street bridge Sunday afternoon. Alderman
E. F. Whitney and Richard Mott, son of
L. Mott, the miller, were slightly injured.
The three were driving a horse, which took
fright at an automobile and started to
jump from the bridge. Brenton, who
weighs 376 pounds and was recently adj
vertised ali over the United States as
the largest mayor in America, was thrown
from the buggy and trampled upon by
the horse.
Mayor Brenton was suddenly elevated
two and half years ago from teamster
to chief executive: Later he was talked
of for congress, but poor managers spoiled
his plans, and he was not even given
the customary second term as mayor. He
is better known turnout the state than
any mayor Des Moines has had. In the
last three state campaigns and the last
two presidential campaigns he stumped
practically all the democratic strongholds
of the state. AS a union teamster he
rallied all union men and other 1aborers
and did great good for his party.
