leon LeClere has been circulating
petition during the past week asking
the proper authorities to have the
Kalispell Indians removed from the
lands they are now occupying in the
Pend d'Oreille valley to some reser-
walton. The petition was quite general
Ilv signed by residents of the valley
and Newport and vicinity.
The Indians are squatting on some
of the most valuable lands in the val
ley. They are not tilling the soil to
any advantage, but are satisfied with
raising a portion of crop-not
enough to subsist on during the year,
but sufficient for portion of the time.
The balance of the time they spend in
hunting and fishing and in attending
the polaches given by other tribes.
They are a shiftless set of Indians,
one of the worst of all the tribes in
the northwest. They are nearly al
ways afflicted with disease, and at
these times they wander around
among he white settlers, without re-
gard to the rights of the latter. Dur
ing the past winter an epidemic OF
~I,,a'lnox has been in existence among

have left the camps in which they
were segregated by the county author
