Mclaughlin made many trips to

the liked Inspector who ever

An Advisory Council !
On indian Affairs.

The Secretary of the Interior,
Mr.. Hubert Work, has invited a
number of persons throughout the
country to become members of an
Advisory Council to cooperate
and exchange views with him re-
garding Indian affairs. -
He desires That the Govefn-
ment avail itself of every oppor
tunity to advance its program of
constructive aid to its Indian
wards" He wishes ito plan the
best policy in its relation to these
people and execute it in q manner
that will work the greatest good. {"
He believes that "a determination
Of the Governments commitments

Americans,' he says, can be
prescribed except by themselves,
but we are responsible for the
formation and administration of
Indian policy. This must be
modified as respect details from
time to time to meet changes in
conditions, and we can at least
approach the problems involved
with an open mind, ready-to meet
new situations ana new duties as
they arise"
The formation of an advisory
council is a new departure in the
Indian policy of the Department
of the Interior but the problems
facing the Government to-day are
greater perhaps, certainly more
diversified, than at any previous
time, or, as Mr.. Work says, The

as our relations were such that there
would not have been any occasion Oh
disposition on his part to misrep-
resent anything to me. But further
more, in the summer of 1911, forty
seven years after the battle, 1t was
my good fortune to meet one of the
survivors of this battle in the per-
son of Mrs. w. ]. Beall, of Bozeman,
Montana. Mrs. Beall is a woman with
a good memory; naturally such an
event had made a deep impression on
her mind; and she had good recol-
Elections of the details of the affair.
I had, prior to meeting Mrs. Beall,
already drafted the account of the
battle, and after comparing notes, so
to speak, with her, / found that her
version of the engagement agreed
very closely with that given me by
Gibboney shortly after the battle, and
such discrepancies as arose were
largely those relating to minor de-
tails, as would naturally be expected
considering the different viewpoints
of the two persons. Mrs. Beall has,
however, been of great assistance to
me in supplying additional details in
the matter.
1t appears Townsend's train had
reached Powder river on July 8, and
had camped few days in order to
rest and recuperate the horses and
cattle, the women in the train avail
ing themselves of the opportunity
of baking bread, putting out the fam
lily wash, etc. Preparations were
made to continue the course on the
morning of July g., proceeding by the
Bozeman trail which had been fol-
lowed up to this point; that is, to
advance through the ravine between
the hills on the northerly bank of
the river and the other hill further
north. Orders were issued on the
evening of the 9Th that the train
would make short march that even
ing, and form a new camp after dark
measure to prevent an attack from
hostile Indians during the night. |
This move was made at the request |
of Captain Townsend's two guides or
pilots, Michael Boulier and John
Richards. Now in this train were |
two brothers, and with them they |
had a COW that could not be found |
when the camp moved that night. On
the morning of the 9Th, the one
brother said, 81 will go back to our
camp of last evening and bring up
our COW while the cattle are feeding
and breakfast is over"
Breakfast was over, the cattle had
