The Pima Indians and the Coolidge
Dam
To the Pimas of Arizona may gc
the honor of perpetuating the Amer
lean Indian in spite of the fact thai
the Pimas are only a few thousand
of a once numerous and prosperous
race and are rapidly dying off. The
one great thing they look forward
to, for the salvation of their tribe
and guarantee of return to the
happy days of their past, is the build
ing of9thekCoolidge dam on the Gila
river lYearg San $garlos. 8 Congress. has
authorizeds the Aconstruction of this
dam and the 7PimAs are anxiously
awaiting the drafting of a deficiency
bill by congress which. they nope
will provide sufficient funds to begin
building the great block in the river
An IndustriOus Indian
The Pimas are an interesting peo-
pie. quite unlike many tribes of
Indians they are Industrious, intelli-
gent and peaceful For centuries they
have lived@ on the stretches. of. the
Gila river below the long box can
yon in which it is proposed to build
the big dam. They were cultivating
their lands when the earliest explor-
ers entered Arizona. Their irrigated
fields. rich With wheat, corn and
cotton, were marvels to the Spanish
missionaries who ventured into the
country before the middle of the six
teenth century.
From the very beginning they were
known as the friend of the white
man. Routes of travel lay through
their lands because of the security
from harm afforded by the swarthy
agriculturists. During the expeditions
of the United States government
against the; ferocious Apaches, the
Pimas even became the seomrade in
arms Of the white soldier, that peace
along the Gila might be made more
certain.
White Settlers and Water
All went exceedingly well with the
Pimas until more than a half-century
ago when white men began to settle
on the Gila above the Pima villages.
The newcomers began to divert the
waters of the river for use on their
own lands. BY 1896, conditions on the
water-deprived farms of the Pimas
became so bad that public opinion
forced the = federal government to
make an Investigation of the possi-
bilities of impounding the waters Of
the stream so that the Indians as
well as the whites would be assured
of water in sufficient quantities to
maintain the prosperity of both
From that time on, investigation fol-
lowed Investigation, bills and more
bills were introduced in congress, the
canals of the Pima farm lands became
drier- and drier and the Pimas fewer
and fewer.

position of the arrangements for ir-

us it was a rare sight to be thrown
in the midst of large nation OF
what are termed wild Indians, sur
passing many of the Christian ma
tions in agricpl4ure, little behind
them in the arts, and immeasurably
before them in honesty and virtue.
On November IL we travelled Is and
one-half miles and encamped on the
dividing line. between the Pimas and
the Maricopas. For the whole dis
tance we passed through cultivated
grounds over a luxuriant1y rich soil"

Colonel Emory be, were he to re-
