SPOTTED TAIL, SIOUX FRIEND
OF THE WHITE MAN

CINTE GALESHKA (SpOtted TaiD
- his people of the Brule Sioux
called him. 1.-THE White Mans Friend"
was the name given him by some Of
his enemies among the Dakotas, who
regarded him as trimmer and a
traitor; but to the whites who bene-
fted by his friendliness he Is affection
ately remembered as "Old Spot"
Spotted Tail had not always been
their friend In his youth no had
been the terror Of the Oregon trail
He won his place among the great
road agents by rObbing the Kincaid
stage coach of $4,000 After the de-
feat of the Brules by General Harvey
at the Battle Of Ash Hollow, Neb. In
1855. Spotted Tail and two other
chiefs, arrayed In their war costumes
and chanting their death songs, rode
into Fort Laramie to give themselves
up as hostages that their people might
be spared. The chief was held pris-
Oner for two years and he profited by
this opportunity to learn the ways of
the white man.
Although he became an advocate Of
peace, his policy of Cancellation was
not one Of servility. Once when the
government had failed to keep its
promise to return the Brules to their
ancestral home, the commissioner Of
indian affairs came to confer with
Spotted Tail. Rushing up to that off,
cial the Brule exclaimed: "All Of the
men who come from Washington are
liars and the bald-headed ones are the
worst. You have but one thing to do
and that Ia to give the order for us to
return to White Clay creek. II this is
not done inside Of ten days ! will or
der my young men to tear down and
burn up everything in this part of the
country" The chief had 1900 warriors
to back up his threat and the order
was given. Another time he said to q
commissioner: II hear you have come
to move us. We have been moved Ave
nmes. | think you had better put the
Indians on wheels and then you car
run them about wherever you wish"
During the war OF 187877 Spotted
Tall performed his greatest service for
the whites. He restrained the major
ity OF the Brules from going on the
warpath and he brought about the
hnal surrender Of his nephew, Crazy
Horse For this he was given the hon
Srary title Of chief of all the Sioux
and the pay Of O lieutenant In the reg
ular army. ~
But as head chief he proved to be a
yrant. His last high-handed act was
stealing the wife of another chief for
which Chief Crow Dog, a relative OF
me injured husband, on August g
issl, killed the great Bruls. ~,

COCIiIsE, WHO TRUSTED ONLY
ONE WHITE MAN
By ELMO SCOTT WATSON

IF THE white man believed all
1 Apaches "red DEVILS" II will be In
teresting to know Cochise's opinion OF
his pale-faced brothers II could not
have been high. Back In 1887 party
of trappers invited some of his people
to feast, and then calmly murdered
them. The governor of Chihuahua
was offering 500 for every Apache
scalp and the trappers needed money.
But Cochlse had O more personal
grievance. He had been friendly to
the Americans until 1861, when he
went into en- army camp under d flag
of truce to deny that his people, the
Chiricahuas, had stolen white boy.
The council was long one and the Of
ficer In command became convinced
that Cochise and his chiefs were lying.
Turning to q sergeant he snapped, Ar
rest 'eml" In second the council
tent was whirlpool Of action. Co
:hise's brother was killed and four
chiefs made prisoner. Cochise cut MS
way through the canvas tent ana es-
capped In the darkness with three bull
lets In his body. AS for the four CHEERS
they were hanged.
Cochlse went on the warpath. In
the words of Capt. John G. Bourke:
"For the next ten years he made Ari-
IONA and New Mexico and the north
ern parts Of Sonora and Chihuahua
about the liveliest places on GODS
footstool" The account, If put down
by a treasury expert, would read
something like this: u
Dr.-The United States to Cochlse,
to one brother killed while resisting
arrest"
Cr.-By ten thousand (10,00O) men,
women and children killed. wounded
or tortured to death, scared out Of
their senses or driven out of the coun-
try, their wagons or pack trains de-
stroyed ranches burned and all indus
trial development stopped.
But there was one white man whom
Cochise respected. This was Capt.
Thomas Jonathan Jeffords, owner of a
freighting outfit. Cochlse had burned
Jeffords wagon trains and in retalia.
ton the captain had killed many
Apache warriors. Finally deciding
that it was time for truce, Jeffords
boldly entered Cochises stronghold In
the Dragon mountains and convinced
the astonished chief that both would
benefit by calling off their war. So
they made a verbal peace treaty and
became warm friends.
Later. through Jefferds' influence,
Cochise settled upon reservation.
There, June s, 1874, he died peaceful
", singular anti-cNmax to the career
of a man whose warlike activities had
once devastated an empire.
