ness and of the deadly wrong suffered
at the hands of the white man; IN
its smothered fire and in its hopeful
longing for the coming OF justice and
better times for the tribe, it was the
most powerful and pathetic appeal ever
made by an Indian.
From the viewpoint Of close asso'
citation with the red man. his faults
are magnified and his virtues forgot
ten. From the viewpoint Of the reader
of Cooper and other romantic writer's
on Indian topics, his vices are obscured,
and his virtues unduly exaggerated.
Judged from the impartial standpoint
| of a rather long acquaintance, which
contains meetings in camp and city,
in the writer's opinion, Chief Joseph
was the finest type OF the red man
this country will ever know.
He died of inconsistencies, and that
statement will provoke no sceptical
smile from one who knows the Indian
character. The earth that contains
the ashes of an Indians dead is sacred
and hallowed. The longing In an In
dams heart for the land of his birth
Is as strong as that which turns oui
wandering footsteps back to the old
home. When Fate in the shape OF an
unkind Government forcibly wrestl
