Stories Of
GREAT
INDIANS
STANDING BEAR WINS LIBERTY
BY HABEAS CORPUS WRIT
By ELMO SCOTT WATSON

n nee upon time writ OF habeas
~ corpus was invoked In behalf OK
an Indian and the decision in his case
marked a new epoch in the conduct OF
our Indian affairs. That man was
Standing Bear Mon-chu-non-zhin),
chief Of the Poncas.
In 1877 the government decided to
remove Standing Bears people from
their ancestral homes in Nebraska to
Indian Territory. In spite of his op-
position, he and nine other chiefs were
taken south to choose reservation.
They would not select place, where
upon the agent refused them trans
portatiOn home.
At night they slept in haystacks,
shivering with the cold. Their only
food was raw corn which they found
In the fields. Their moccasins wore
out. After 80 days they reached the
Otoe reservation in Nebraska ard as
they walked into the agents office
they left bloody footprints On the
floor. Ten days later they rode
YEARLY into their home camp On
ponies which the Otoes had given
them.
In their absence an official Of the
Indian department arrived to remove
the Poncas by force. Accepting the
inevitable, Standing Bear prepared to
retrace his steps. After terrible
Journey, during which two Of Standing
Bears children died, the discouraged
Poncas settled In their new homes.
Within a year a third of the tribe per-
ished. Then Standing Bears favorite
son died. In January. 1879. he took
the bones of his sons, and started
once more to Nebraska.
Two months later they arrived desti-
tute at the Omaha reservation. They
borrowed land and seed from the
Omahas and were preparing to put in
a crop when soldiers appeared to ar
rest and return them to Indian Ter
ritory. Then public sentiment inter.
vened. Two white lawyers offered to
defend the Poncas and sued out a
writ Of habeas corpus.
Although attorneys for the Indian
department contended that Indians
were mot persons within the meaning
Of the law" Judge Dundy ruled against
them and ordered the prisoners re
leased. "Once l avenged my wrongs
with the tomahawk," said Standing
Bear" but the white mans way is bet
ter. l lay the tomahawk down for
ever"
BY this time Standing Bears cas-
had attracted national attention anc
senate investigation of the Ponca re
moval resulted in restoring them tc
their old homes. Here September &
1905, Standing Bear died at the age
of eighty years.

on them. All that bitter day, with
she thermometer 20 below zero. these
naked warriors had fought off Macken-
zie until their women and children
had escaped.
After Dull Knife surrendered, he
and his people were sent to Indian
Territory where they rapidly sickened
and died. until two-thirds of their mum,
Der had persisted. In vain Dull knife
appealed to the government to return
his people to their old homes. FL

Wolf, the Junior war chief, resolved
to lead them from their hated reser-
7ation.
But Dull Knife and a part Of the
tribe were captured. They were tax

prisoned in an old barracks. Then
they were told that they must be re-

by eating their moccaSins and a few
roots, Dull Knife and his immediate
family reached the camps of his
friends, the Sioux.

allowed 10 return 10 his home in Mon
