INDIAN TRADITIONS
AND SACRED ANIMALS
Frank E. Wyatt the Salmon River Stockman Tells of Indian
Wars and Peace Compacts, and Explains the Turtle
in the Sun" Robe Design.

The Lewiston Tribune publishes an
interesting interview with Frank E.
Wyatt, the Salmon river cattleman,
on Indians and Indian ways, arising
over the presentation of a handsome
Indian blanket from the looms of
the Pendleton woolen mills to a very
popular newphew living in Philadel-
phia.
Mr.. Wyatt said that his nephew
who is a prominent physician, has a
penchant for the collection of an
tique furniture-chippend chairs
and tallboys, and that during a Wis
it during the past summer to the far
west, he became enamored of Indian
curios and legends. 1t was for this
reason that the robe was obtained
and forwarded. The robe is what is
known as the turtle in the Sun,

signs for Indian robes known among
the northwest Indian tribes. Long be

INCREASED RATE BARS SHIP
PING ORE.

A. $. Johnson. the well known mer-
chant, postmaster and miner of Col
den, came in Tuesday of this week
from the Ten Mile district and has
been attending to business. Mr.. John
son brings very encouraging reports
of the conditions in the mining sec
ton which he comes from.
He says, however, that the increase
of the rate on parcel post matter from
Golden to Butte, which went into ef
feet in September through ruling Of
Postmaster General Burleson, has put
ore shipping out of the question.
Where prior to September ore could
be shipped to Butte for from $50 to
$35 per ton, including sacking. it now
costs from $50 to $50, difference Of
500 per ton.
Mr.. Johnson says a number of the
mines in his section are being worked
regularly now by the owners, and that
at a profit.
J. b. Green has installed his gold
separating machine for the Smith
Bros, the New York, and 1t is now
about ready to begin to operate.

That the Municipal Christmas
Tree" was one of the most successful
public events ever pulled off In the
city is conceded on all sides. Over
700 people packed the Odd Fellows
opera house last Friday evening to
listen to the excellent musical pro-
gram offered by the local singers un-
der the capable leadership of Harry
Hilbourne, and to see the score of
happy little faces shine under the
good cheer which was brought to
them on that auspicious occasion.
There is no greater pleasure known
nor deeper and more lasting satisfac-
tiOn experienced in this circumscribed
prosaic life we are living than that
which comes through making others
happy. The very atmosphere last
Friday night was impregnated with
the true Christmas spirit-the ring
ing Christmas songs, so appropriate
and so ably rendered; the mass of
vigorous, active child life, full of
that expectancy and eager anticipa-
tion which make the young so inter
esting and lovable; the intimate con-
tact of parents, friends and neigh
bors in a commendable and praise
worthy mission, all went to contribute
to the fullest to the ideal occasion
which was so clearly typified that
night. When you add to this back,
ground of evergreens, with a myriad
of stars of flashing electric lights, q
large full-height chimney with fire
place of ample proportions to accom-
modate a Compliant Santa Claus, al
artistically arranged, with fairies anC
brownies fitting and capering through
the interstices, you have the scene
as it appeared to the spectators OF
that occasion. Then Santa Claus ac

that worthy patron saint of the chill

which came down from the high chin
ney and through which the precious
packages came and were delivered to
the eager youngsters just in front of
the footlights. Over 500 packages
containing candy and nuts, with an
equal number Of oranges, were at
hand and the wants of all the chill
dren were amply supplied, and, like
the loves and fishes, great quantities
were left for the scattering ones who
were so unfortunate as not to be
there.
The program was promptly car
ried out, things moving smoothly and
expeditiously but without undue haste
or confusion, and all the children
were ready to return home at an early
hour.

Charles and Leonard Cain of
Tolo Section Drowned
Sunday Afternoon.
SADDLE MULE UNRULY
When Struck by Current Ami
NAL Turned Down Stream
Bodies Uncovered.

Last Sunday about 2 p. M, Charles
and Leonard Cain, better known here
on the Prairies where they have liv-
ed for years, as Bosco and Jim, met
q sudden and untimely death in the
treacherous waters of the Salmon riv-
er while crossing that stream to the
Gill Bros ranch. The two brothers,
with John Johnson, of this place, had
been in White Bird together, and
some time before noon decided to re-
turn to the ranch across the river
owned by Bob and Clark Gill, where
they had been working off and on for
some months, Mrs. Clark Gill being a
sister of the Cain boys.
Upon reaching what is known as
the Pell Sherwin ford, some sixteen
miles up the river from White Bird,
the boys started to cross, John John
son in the leady followed by Jim Cain,
who was riding a young mule not very
well broken. AS soon as the current
struck the mule it turned and started
down stream in spite of it's riders eff
forts to hold it to the ford. Just be-
low the ford is a very bad place, and
Bosco, seeing the course the mule was
taking and knowing of the pitch-off
rushed his horse in to head the ami
NAL off, and assist his brother, wheI
his mount fell and threw him off into
the deep water, but recovered itself
leaving its rider to drown. John John
son, who returned to help the brothers
was almost drowned, it is said. Al
about the same time the horse throw
Bosco into the deep water, the mule
also went off with its rider and al
were drowned.
: After the two men and mule wen
down nothing more was seen of then
and bodies have not yet been recov
cred. Johnson went on across the riv
er and gave the story of the tragedy
and outlook has since been kept TO
the bodies in vain.
The two Cain brothers are the son
Of Mrs. M. J. Cain, living nea
Tolo on the farm where the boys grew
to manhood. This leaves the thir'
brother, Sherman, as the remain
ing support of the widowed mother
to whom the death of the sons will b
q severe blow.

handed down by their ancestors.
1t has been the custom Of all In
dian tribes to hold some animal as
sacred. In fierce battle between
the Umatilla and Cayuse Indians
which lasted for many days, the re-
suit was both tribes united and
smoked the peace pipe. The smoking
of the peace pipe between the two
tribes Is the same as the pipe they
smoke before going to war with some
other tribe but the meaniug Il is alto
gether different and it is ON all occa-
sions smoked to the sun.
In smoking the peace pipe the chief
takes the pipe and blows smoke up
and to the east or the rising sun and
then again in the direction Of the sun
at monday and again to the west or
the setting of the sun and then he
passes the pipe to the next one and
each repeats the same until all have
smoked the pipe.
They all believe that as truly as the
sun crosses the heavens every day
that just so truly will their peace re-
main true until the sun refuses to
shine no more. When peace was
made the two tribes chose the turtle
as the sacred animal.
The Nez Perce Indians were To-
Gated in Idaho and on what is now
called Camas prairie and were a very
strong tribe. Their territory and
hunting grounds extended west to the
Snake river and north to the Clear
water river Lewiston is now located
at the junction of the two rivers. 1t
is also located on the grounds where
the fight between the joined forces
of the Umatilla and the Cayuse In
dians against the Nez Perce Indians
occurred.
This fight was a bloody one and
lasted over many days, neither gain
ing victory over the Other for each
was backed by their own tribe and
we're fighting along the Snake river
or boundary line. Charleston is now
/ located on the ground which was con-
i trolled by the Umatilla and Cayuse
! Indians. Peace was declared that
each should join forces. The terri
tory which the Umatilla Indians pos
sessed and the territory which the
Nez Perce Indians possessed would
be as one large territory and al
would be at peace with each other
The peace pipe was again smoked IL
the same way as was before deScr1b
ed.
After this it was very often the cas-
you would see q Umatilla or Cayus'
Indian wearing a robe with a coyote
(Which was the Nez Perce sacred ami
mall and the sun on it, while tn,
Nez Perce Indian would wear on
with the turtle and sun design on
the Umatilla and Cayuse sacred an
imal.
The Pendleton Woolen Mills wer
originally started for the purpose o
making robes for these tribes an,
accordingly located on the old Una
tilla reservation, where the India
could bring in his favofite design
and have them woven into a fleec
robe Of gorgeous hue.
Tourists passing through were al
tracted by the beautiful and uniqu
display of these robes that met thei
gaze on every hand and they 500
began buying them to ia ke home a

Forty Cases of Rabies Dis
closed by Investigations
of Bacteriologist.
EXAMINED 70 HEADS
Includes Coyotes, Dogs, Cats,
Hogs and Horses-2O
Humans Treated.

Statesman: Some idea of the prev
alence of rabies In the state of Idaho
may be gained from the figures Of rec
ord in the office of the state bacter-
iologist. DIR. Laubaugh says that dur
ing 1915, the heads of 70 animals, sus-
pected victims of rabies, were submit
ted to his office for examination.
These animals included not only coy
oteS and dogs, but cats, hogs and hOrs-
es. They came from 13 different coun-
ties, scattered all over the southern
part of the state-Ada, Adams, Boise,
Blaine, Canyon, Cassia, Gilmore, Gem,
Gooding, Owyhee, Twin Falls, Lin
coin, and Washington. Only 40 Of the
examinations disclosed the presence of
rabies.
Pasteur Treatment.
Twenty persons were treated dur
ing 1915, with Pasteur's anti-rabic
preparation at the state board of
health laboratory. In addition to this
number, two men are now awaiting
the arrival of material for treatment
and one-a woman, about 60 years old
is awaiting the outcome of investi-
CATIONS to determine whether she will
be compelled to take the treatment.
None of those treated show any i'll
effects
These figures will show to a con-
siderable extent, the danger in Idaho
but not entirely for there have been
many animals killed on suspicion, some
of them undoubtedly afflicted with the
disease, which were not reported to
the state officials.
Livestock InOculated.
A phase of the campaign which in
terested stOckmen several months ago
was the treatment of the Eastman
herd of blooder livestock at New Ply
mouth, which was bitten by a mad
coyote. The treatment was given on
the authorization Of the state livestock
sanitary board which paid part of the
expense. In return for the considera-
ton of the state officials, Mr. East
man permitted the isolation of a few
head of the stock, confined in stout
stalls, where the progress of the dis
ease, if it developed, could be watch
ed with safety by the state officials
and the condition of the isolated stocl
compared, day by day, with that OF
the stock which had been treated witt
the Pasteur preparation. The inocu
lated stock survived while part OF
the other died.
