not then known what the govern
ment would do with the Sioux, but
confidence was restored.
Late in October the rations were
received at the agency and at once
were distributed. The crisis,
which was probably the worst in
any part of the northwest, was over
and little wonder it was that in
every hut and hamlet in northern
Montana that November there was
general thanksgiving. In the SER
vices many Indians joined and the
white and red hand met in many
a friendly grasp. The Sioux, foil
ed in their designs, began a series
of raids on their own account and
for years after they caused must
trouble and cost many lives.

GET APPLES NOW
BEFORE THEY GO
J. G. WOOD, STATE HORTICUL-
TURIST, SAYS FANCY ARTICLE
BEING SHIPPED OUT
Mcintosh in Demand and Should Be
Bought Now and Stored Away;
Are Much in Demand by Eastern
Houses; No Apple Grown Any
where That Is Superior.

There will be plenty of good ap-
Piles for home consumption, said
tState Horticulturist J.. G. Wood.
Good, orchard run, Wealthy apples,
may be purchased now in MissouIa
at approximately $1.75 per box.
They are a good all around apple
for both eating and cooking pur-
poses.
There is an abundance of apples
in the Orchard Homes district this
year. Many of them, unfortunately,
were damaged by hail, which does
not injure them in the least, only for
marketing purposes, as where they
are checked with the hail it detracts
from their appearance. They are
equally as good as any for general
purposes. These apples may be pur-
chased at a reasonable figure.
Now is the time to purchase ap-
pies for winter. When the apples
are being picked, packed and mar
keted, the sales to eastern buyers are
all made at that time, and growers
cannot hold their apples. APPROX
mately all the first class stuff is
shipped out at packing time, which
quite frequently leaves the home
market stripped of fancy apples. In
the past there have been many peo-
pie who demanded only the fancy
Mcintosh, and those desiring to pur-
chase them should do so now and
store them away for winter, before
they are shipped out of the country,
for they will soon be hard to get.
Commission men and fruit houses
of the state, instead of buying and
storing some of Montana's best ap-
pies for the future trade, ship out
all they buy and later ship to Mis-
soula from Washington to replace
The fruit sent out of here, many of
hem inferior apples to the famous
Mcintosh Red.
There is no apple grown any

radiction. Some years ago the hor-
.icultura1 class at Pullman, Wash,

ly reds, there was fear in every
household in the northern coun.
! ties. ~ -.
From short rations to almost
nothing was what the friendlies
had been reduced to about June
and, in fact, it is recorded that
many of their number died from
starvation and cold before they
ever thought of entertaining the
Sioux proposition.
Held Council of War
About this time many heads and
members of the various friendly
tribes gathered in the vicinity of
Fort Assinniboine. Their purpose
was to hold a council of war and
determine what should be done.
They had been there for some time
and their condition was pitiful.
One of the camps belonged to the
Crees who we're under Thunder
Chief. 1t numbered about 40 lodges
and they were selling their guns
and every article of value in order
to get money to buy food. The
women were assisting in the work
and many of the children were sac
rificed to shame to get few cents
to stave off starvation. This par
ticular camp had been in the neigh
borhood of the post for six months
and they were practically unable
to move Many of their horses had
been slaughtered for food and
others had died from Starvation
during the winter. Decentralization
was everywhere. The men were
weak and emaciated from hunger,
the women were sick and the
children clothed in rags and filth.
Throughout the camp the foulest |
Of diseases prevailed and there was
no medical aid. Deaths were of
daily occurrence. This was the |
in almost every camp in
he vicinity although the Crees
we're probably the worst off.
Discomfort was abroad and in
he face of the tribes that stood
friendly to the whites was the
offer of the Sioux to di-
tide the buffalo if they would join
n general slaughter and pillage.
The country about the lodges for {
many lines was destitute of game
# any kind and apparently the
'nly hope these poor unfortunates
lad to save themselves from III
peedy death was to shake hands i
With the Sioux and become the /,
nemies of the whites. iliH
Sioux Were for Slaughter

Blackfeet squaws, who had always
been considered handsome, proud
and yirtuous above all other. Indian
women, were now forced to the
most terrible necessities to provide
themselves and their children with
food. The swill barrels about the
soldiers quarters were besieged
day and night by the famished
wretches and the putrid carcasses
of animals that had died from dis
ease were stripped of every par
ticle of flesh to relieve the keen
pangs of hunger. Such fearful
restitution soon produced disease
and it appeared that unless the
proposition of the Sioux was &C
cepted soon the most powerful
bands of northern Montana would
be decimated.
AS the weeks went on this con-
dition did not grow any better and
it was decided to call meeting Of
the chiefs of the various friendly
tribes and some of the leading
whites and talk the matter over.
This was done near Fort Assinni-
boine. There were present among
the chiefs, Medicine Son, Wolf |
Collar, Bulls Black Fat, Three
Bears, Bull-That- Goes-Around and i
Old Big Horn. At that meeting it
was reported that the Sioux had
sent runners to the Blackfeet camp
and to the Bloods, the week before,
urging them to come and join them
before the summer was further
spent. First they were instructed
10 procure all the ammunition they
could. The runners stated that
here were plenty of buffalo near
he Sioux camp and that if the
3loods, the Blackfeet and Piegans
would join them there would be no
onger reason to fear starvation as

. do all this, it would be better
, try it than to lie down and starve

Talk of Medicine Son
Medicine Son, who was better
nown as Button Chief for the
Jason that he always had his hair
ed with string into which was
lstened several buttons, had al
avs been firm friend of the
hites. He addressed the meeting

whites and assist them in robbins

the pioneers during the summer.
The principal men of the Blood
nation, with their families, were
within a few miles of the Cree
camp. Red Crow had about Sc
lodges with him in the Milk river
valley. White Calf, Hind Bull,
Spotted Dog and Medicine Son had
about 90 lodges near Black Butte.
eros Ventres Had Food
The Gros Ventres were also in
the, neighborhood. They were not
so badly off. They had horses and
some of these, in June, they sold,
getting a little cash. This money
was placed in the hands of The
Man hat-Gives-Up-His-Life- To :
the-People and he, accompanied by
four lodges, was sent to Fort Belk-
nap 10 Duy provisions.
About this time Running Rabbit,
with IA lodges of Bloods, left for
the Crow reservation, where he
expected to get some assistance for
his people. With the Crows his
tribe had always been friendly and
it was reported they had some food
to spare.
The Blackfeet to the number of
200 under the leadership of Bigl
Crowfoot, were carnped southeast
of the Little Rockies not far from
Punchette. Bad Boy, with 80
lodges. of the Northern Piegans,
had few days before this moved
close to the Blackfeet camp. This
was about the position of the
friendly Indians on July l, 1880,
while the hostile Sioux were camp
ed from the Big Bend of the Milk
river to its mouth.

Bloods were the proudest. Many

we have left are no good We can

ton of the Sioux, our worst enemy,
if we have to walk into their camp.
We have always felt proud of our
large country and never gave away
any of Our lands south of the boun-
dairy. Our possessions extend from
the Saskatchewan to the Yellow
stone, but now they tell us we are
the children of our grandmother
who is the chief of the red coats
and we have no right on this side
of the iron line.

that we were like them so that Our
children could go to sleep without

something soon or all our young
