RETRACES STEPS HE TOOK NEAR CITY
60 YEARS AGO in FIGHTING INDIANS:
RECALLS DEATH OF OFFICER NEAR HERE
II. H. Larncd of Lansing,
Michigan, Comes Back. to
Bismarck on Visit to View
Again the Scenes He Saw
When the Country was In
habited by Indians.

H. H. Larncd, hale and hearty al
though he will be 80 years in Aug
ust, today planned to retrace steps
he took near Bismarck in 1863 when
the country was inhabited by In
dians.
Mr.. Larned lived in Dakota Terri
tory from 1863 to 1870 and then
returned to Lansing, Michigan, his
present home. He fought the In
dians as a United States soldier and
sbartered with them later as fur
trader.
"The county has changed--it has
built up wonderfully, but the prair-
les and hills appeal to me the way
they did the first day l saw them,"
he said today.
+ Mr. Larned was with the General
Sibley expedition of 1868, when the
Sioux Indians were chased across
the Missouri river. He was with
the command when Lieut., Beaver
was killed near Apple Creek about
three miles south of Bismarck.
In 1864 he returned again with
Capt. Fish's expedition to the gold
fields at Virginia City, now in Ida
no. They left Ft. Rice south of Bis
marck and followed the Cannonball
river across Deep Creek, IL miles
southwest of eAmidon, Slope county,
where they had fight with Indians
in which several were killed.
They camped at Bacon creek near
the site of the old T-cross ranch in
Slope county. The Indians were toe
numerous and the expedition halted
and built fort, on the line between
Bowman and Slope counties. The
ruins still may be seen. They held
the fort Is days and in the mean
time sent runners back to Fort
Rice. General Sully, who had just
returned from his northern expcdi-
tion during which the Battle of Kill
deer mountain was fought, sent 90C
men for relief. They brought the
expedition back.
Mr.. Larned was discharged from
the Army but remained in the then
wild country. He was made secre.
tary of the Northwestern Fur Com
pany at Ft. Rice. being there fol
two years. He then was at Ft
Berthold for two years for Durfee
and Peck and two years at Ft. Un'
ion, Williams county.
| Mr.. Larned was at Ft. Union al
about the same time that JOSEPH
Dietrich of Bismarck was there.
On his visit here Mr.. Larned re-
called wildly the fight with tht
Indians in 1868. 1t was during tht
summer, 60 years ago, he said.
Mr.. Larned visited L. F. Crawford
curator of the State Historical So
ciety, and met many pioneers today
A party was planned to retrace thu
steps Mr.. Lnrned took near Bis
marck more. than a half-century ago
Mr.. Larned visited Mr.. Crawford a
Sentinel Butte. several years ag,
and traced the old trail through
Slope and Amidon counties. Mr.
Crawford is making records of Mr.
Larned's story of the Sully expedi
|tion for the historical society.

TWO of the paciflst organizations
l. which have headquarters in
Washington and whose ideas and
propaganda have often been declared
exceedingly mischievous by persons
who must be classed as real patriots,
have laid themselves open to vigorous
attack. They are the National Coun-
Gil for the Prevention of War and the
Women's International League for
Peace and Freedom. General Fries,
head Of the chemical warfare service,
recently accused them of being unpa-
triotic and Of advocating communism.
To these charges the organizations
made vigorous reply, defending them
selves and their objects. At this writ
ing Secretary Of War Weeks is said to
be preparing to enter the controversy,
and though his stand has not been
made public, it is understood that he
will back up the accusations made by
General Fries.
On Wednesday the American De-
fense society, through it's Washington
director, R. M. Whitney, issued a let
ter declaring that both the pacifist or
ganizations are working directly along
lines laid down by soviet Russia to
bring about the "armed revolution"
The chief complaint against the or
ganizations is that they are working
tooth and nail against all military pre-
paredness and seeking in every way to
hamper the activities of the army and
navy and to the peace-time operations
that keep the defenders Of the coun-
try up to the mark. For instance, they
tried to induce congress to throw out
the appropriation for summer camps
for the reserve corps, and, failing in
this, they now are sending broadcast
articles alleging that the camps are de-
signed to arouse a militaristic spirit
and indirectly to produce war.
One good result of the controversy
thus far is that the secretary of war
is permitting army and navy officers to
present to the public their views on
preparedness and other professional
matters.
