a fine primary teacher, and good

forest fires broke out, she had to
ride over twenty miles as fast as her
horses could go-she had a relay,

OUTBREAKS
were WELL TIMED
DR.. o. ]. Libby, Speaking at
Sibley Memorial Exercises,
Shows How Indians Did.

The fftieth anniversary Of the sib-
ley expedition against the Sioux In
dams in this section of the country
was observed in a simple exercise at
the Valley City normal auditorium.
where the principal address was de-
ivered by DR.. O. j. Libby, secretary
of the State Historical association,
Grand Forks. DR.. Libby gave in a
concise m the background Of the
Sioux outbreaks Of the early sixties.
These outbreaks were not accidental
but we'll timed. according to the speak
er. The government was at this time
taken up with the civil war toward
which almost all attention was turned.
The Indians were, at the same time
on friendly terms with the Canadian
traders. subjects Of Great Britain, who
was under cover of sympathy with
and indirectly aiding the c~onfederacy.
With these traders, buffalo hides and
meat were exchanged for guns and
Ammunition, which when used against
the settlers tended to divert the at
tention Of the government away from
the civil var and toward the west,
and had the Sioux received the aid ex-
|pected from the Chippewas, would
have caused much more trouble.
The immediate cause of the massa-
ores Of 1862 was the coming Of the
t9eTTndHS ana SCanQlnaVlanS TO seize
the hunting grounds Of the Sioux for
agricultural purposes and driving
away the buffalo. This meant starva-
ton for the Indians and from their
standpoint. it is said, they were justi-
fed in making objection. Another
cause lay in the immigrant train.
plying across the prairies to the re-
Gently discovered idaho and Montana
gold fields. These trains divided the
buffalo herds and drove them to the
southwark away from the Sioux hunt
ing grounds. The section between
Kansas and North Dakota was 60 at
fected.
1t was General H. H. sibley, who
was sent by the government from FIT.
Abercrombie to protect the white set
tiers and the immigrant trains. These
troops crossed the Sheyenne north of
where Valley City is now situated and
where the Old Settlers association of
Barnes county have voted to place a
memorial. For. az was said by DR..
Libby. the sibley expedition takes q
place in this state as part Of u ma
tional history and It will be So re-
garded in the near future, when a new
history is written. giving each state
its proper balance in relation to every
other state.
