Picturesque Character Defies
White Man and LaW-NeV-

Downright, 1929

WASHINGTON, March 28.-Dead
or alive, picturesque "Old Posey,"
outlaw Piute chief today in hiding
near Banding, Utah, will be taken.
He probably will be dead.
These statements were made at
the office of the Indian affairs COM
mission this morning. According to
latest dispatches from San Juan
county, Utah, the giant sixty-year'
old chief alone still tricks about IA
l>miliar crags in Aliens canyon, Voic-
ing the defiance of the pale face and
his law in muted gutturals. while
posses of white men slowly surround
him.
Everybody at the Indian Office
knows "Old Posey" by reputation.
One of them, Major James McLaugh'
lin, veteran Indian fighter, knows
him personally. To him Posey ex'
pressed his creed in 1917.

Officials today wished a reincar-

is not the last of a tribe; he's the
last of an idea.
His hundred braves, squaws and
papooses are the only Indians in
America who live like their ances-
tors-'Injun way" Posey is the
power which fosters this nomad life.
They move their tepees from place to
place outside the reservation on pub
lie land. They scorn open plumbing
and the enervating luXuries of the
white man. AS their forefathers did
long before the pale face came, they
fish in mountain streams, gallop
their pintos saddleless up the can
yons and Craze their cattle in the
luXuriant lands.
Old Posey holds the conviction that
this land is his and his peoples. How
did the cowman, the sheep man, the
farmer and now the oil man get
title to it? Not hearing a satisfac-
tory reply he and his braves kept

The mammoth chief of the last

rest of two tribesmen. There were
several skirmishes. One white man
was killed. After two months of
fighting the Indian capitulated. In
| 1917 war was imminent between cow
men and the Posey Piutes. The
/ whites accused Indians of stealing.
Indians made counter charges. Ma
! jor Mclaughlin settled the difficulty
but failed to persuade Posey to go
on a reservation. He would never do
that, Posey grunted. Life was about
done. He would live it where he
pleased. Chickering'S with whites in
creased. The enmity eliminated in
the recent rescue Of Piute prisoners
in Blanding, and subsequently battles
in the hills.
In these skirmishes Old Posey's
followers, one by one, were captured
Posey alone is free. He will resist
to the last cartridge, Indian officials
believe, and then will welcome the
