INDIAN TROUBLE
At WALKER LAKE
RESERVATION
PlUTEs SAY NEW AGENT is UN.
FIT TO HOLD A GOVERN.
MENT POST

On Tuesday and Wednesday of this
week there was great gathering OF
the Piutes in Yerington for the pur-
pose of discussing the actions of the
agent at the reservation, DR.. l.. v.
Mailman. Among the large number
of Indians who assembled here were
Jack Wilson 1.-THE Messiah, George
Winnemucca, Dick Mack, Jake Stew.
art, Tom Mitchell, Gus Brann, Jake
Rhodes, Jack Bovard, Barney Miller,
Barney Williams, James Waterson.
Willie Quinn, Hooton and many 9TH
ers.
The grievance that the Piutes have
is the action of the Indian agent.
They make the charge that on or
about the first of November, 1913,
the agent came to Yerington to find
one Bob Muldoon, Piute. He found
instead Bob's wife, Hattie Mudoon,
and made threats to kill her and
struck her with big beef bone that
he picked up from the ground. This
happened at or near the Indian camp
south of Bridge street The woman
was enciente and the treatment she
received made her i'll for several
weeks and when her child was born
it lived but a couple of weeks as a
result of the assault
The Piutes claim they are arrested
in the reservation for trifling things
and thrown into jail, and that the
crops raised ON their allotments of
land are allowed to spoil; that the
agent, apparently backed by the pow
ers at Washington, acts foolishly and
is perfectly ignorant of the ways of
the Indian. making senseless threats
of punishments from time to time,
disregarding anything but his own
wishes; that he has bad temper
and is always creating petty quarrels
and bad feeling among his charges
and prevents the Indians from max
ing living.
Among the compliments is James
Watterson, an exceptionally bright
young Indian, who explained matters
fully to the white people and CON
ferred with his own people to the
end that they have employed Attor-
ney Pilkington to represent them,
and as result of their conference
here this week the case of the agent
is to be laid before the commissioner
of Indian affairs and the secretary
of the interior at Washington, with
a request that an investigation be
made. -Yerington Times.
