Chieftain Declares.

MONTREAL, October 5.-Indians
Of the Six Nations living in Canada
have never sworn allegiance to the
British crown" a tribal chiftain de-
clared in court here yesterday when
he testified at the trial of two Indians
and white man who are charged
with conspiring to obtain money under
false pretenses.
The chief is Edward A. Walker,
Oneida Indian, of the Muncey Reser-
vatiOn in Ontario. Those on trial are
Orrin J. Kellogg, Mrs. Laura Cor
nelius Kellogg and Chief ". X. Cor
nelius. There is no relation between
Mrs. Kellogg and Chief Cornelius, she
said, although it was at first believed
he was her brother. Kellogg is a
white man.
Chief Walker said that although
the individual tribes bow to the au-
thority of the council of the six ma
tions, they recognizes no higher au-
tLorit,,' nor do they consider them
selves bound by the laws of the Do
minion. The conscience of nation

state Colorado River conference re-
cessed late yesterday to November {.
The motion to recess With Il view to
further conversations looking toward
q tri-State lower basin compace on
Water-division ani apportionment of
lydro-electric power benefits was
Fought by United states Senator Key
J'ittman of Nevada, who contended
that further negotiation was useless
because Of the respective adamant
stands of both California and Arizona.
ARIZONA nredicates its agreement on
water division on agreement respect

California will not treat on the QueS-
tion of power until it has received
assurances that the administration in

Washington is the only place where
these questions can be settled"
Dissent From View.
Gov William II. Adams Of Colora-
90. Gov. George w. =. Hunt of Ari-
IONA and Commissioners }. l.. Ba-
con of California all dissented from
the view that nothing more could be
accomplished by the conference. The
Colorado executive suggested that
representatives of the three lower
basin States-AriZona. California and
Nevada-return to their homes to con-
fer with their constituencies, while
Gov. Hunt and Commissioner Bacon
cvinced Willingness to continue the
parley indefinitely.
A resolution by Senator Pittman
declaring for State ownership of and
sovereignty over all streams and for
the principle of State compensation
for the use of lands and waters used
in dam construction by the Federal
Government was adopted without
negative vote, California, however, re-
framing from voting.
States Taken to Task.
Gov. George II. Dern of Utah, chair
man, took Arizona and California to
task by declaring that neither show
ed an incinat ton to concede anything
in the interests of a tri-State agree
ment.
This conference basically was call
ed to test whether States can settle
their interstate problems without out
side interference" he said. Those re-
sponsible for the failure of the con-
ference have struck a blow at the
American system of government and
have invited the Federal Government
to usurp State authority"

In the spring of 1888 band of Crow
Indians broke out Of their reservation
in southeastern Montana and began to
steal livestock. They carried the horrors
of Indian warfare into frontier settle
ments, painting themselves and firing
their rifles to frighten the women and
children, shooting the men if any re-
sistance were made. Scott, now first
lieutenant, was stationed at Fort Meade,
N D., with two junior officers, 80 men
and so pack mules. He was ordered to
round up the savages.
Cold Swim
When the party came to the banks Of
the Little Missouri river they found the
stream high from the April freshets.
Scott called for volunteers to take a line
across the river to which could be at
tached a makeshift ferry. Two men dived
in, but came out with more alacrity than
dignity, saying the water was too cold fol-
any mortal to endure.
Scott lost no time in pickering. Strip
ping off his uniform and tying the
rope around his waist he plunged in
For more than 500 feet he struggled with

Petroglyphs Left by Indians
May Always Remain UmSOlved

On the rock walls of the cave were
crude pictures in red paint-red being
the sacred color of the Indians. The
boys had never heard Of petrOglyphics,
but they believed they had CHANGED upon
something unusual and they fastened
home to tell about it.
This led to older members of their
families visiting the cave, and it was
from one Of these I heard my story. The
rock-paintings we're few, and it was
doubtful what one Of these represented;
it looked like a kettle, or some kind of
cooking utensil. There were also one or
two figures Of men, and bird, perhaps
an eagle or hawk. Why were these
painted there? This we shall never know,
nor will these interesting pictures ever
be seen again. Not long after they were
discovered by the boys, the cave had as
temporary occupants party who knew
more about building fire than they did
of primitive artistry, for the smoke from
their fire ruined the pictures. They can
no longer be seen.
The main purpose Of this article and
the preceding one, is to call attention
to petroglyphics already found in Mon
tana, as they may lead to the discovery
Of others, and to their preservation when
found If white men and women are
wise as the Crows think them to be, they
may sometime be able to interpret these
rick-writings, and so learn the history
OF a race. At least they will know enough
Of their scientific value not to destroy
them.

Kitchen Chair On A utO Bumpers
Makes Fine Seat for Rabbit
Hunter, Until Rock Pile Looms

Of the snorting auto as Shirley from his
hoWdah split the air with a charge Of
No. 6 shot. The blast was futile owing
to a chUck-hOle in the road which raised
hob with the hunters aim. The jack let
out a few more links and invited Ma
hOut Hartwig to look at some real speed.
Both the mahout and BuwanO Tumbo
gazed all right and the jack suddenly
veered out into the sage.
Like Ruth He Takes on
"Hang on" yelled the mahout, prod
ding his mount and Shirley out in the
howdah grabbed the radiator as the car
bumped over the terrain gaining speed
at every bump.
Then a rock pile loomed in front. Ma
hout Hartwig jammed on the brakes and
stopped in the nick of time.
Shirley sailed toward the moon, eX-
ecuted a double fip-f1op and lit, rolling
over and over and bringing up against
another rock pile. His pants were total
loss, the shotgun disappeared and the
right knee of the hunter was mussed uE
until it looked like a boxing glove.
Out in the sagebrush, an elongated
jack rabbit sQuatted smilingly and tilted
forward pair Of ears that looked like
windshields.
The hunt was all over except the hunt
for a doctor.

AbOlishes Filipino Slavery
From Cuba, after a five-year stay, he
went to the Philippines as governor of
Sulu province and commander Of the
military post at Jolo. In his efforts to
stop the slave traffic, he came into con-
flict with the Moros. He found them
armed with modern implements Of war
fare. They even had small cannon with
which to repel him. In a desperate bat
tie he was shot through both hands,
having to be lifted into his saddle to
direct operations. But the authority Of
the United States was enforced, the
Moros were subdued and slavery abol-
ished. Again General Wood paid him
| high compliment.
'Scott had to deal with the most war
like and most turbulent section Of the
Moro people," he said. "He accomplished

gained the opposite bank and securing
the rope to a tree, bade his men to fol-
low. An old wagon bed was used as
float and the group got across safely.
The Indians were discovered. Scott talked
with them in the sign language, pro-
testing his friendship. They submitted
to authority and went back to their res
ervation.
After the Crows had been quieted no
great conflicts flared up until 1890,
when the Cheyennes under Big Wolf
began their ghost dance activities. The
government, knowing Scott's genius for
smoothing over difficulties, sent him
into their midst. Soon they were a
peaceful band again. It was then that
Big Wolf gave Scott the name that be-
came THE Man Who Talks With His
Hands,"
After the big struggles with the Indian
tribes had died down the turmoil Of the

Scott was sent to Cuba as captain, soOn

campaign after campaign as additional
tribes rose against the White Father at
Washington. After placating the Sioux
the troops went after the Nez Perces.
Nearly all of the members of this tribe,
with Chief Joseph at their head, were
either killed or captured. On the march
back to the army post the news came
that a number of the Indians, early in
the fight, had gone toward the Canadian
border. Sitting Bull, the mentor Of In
dian resistance, was in the vicinity and
it was rumOred he intended to help the
Nez Perces.
Accepting Sitting Bulls challenge,
General Miles, in command Of the troops,
took IL men and sent them off under
Lieut.. Marion P. Maus. Scott and six
men, going in advance of the troop, were
met by Maus in the neighborhood of the
Milk river. Maus, lacking knowledge of
how many Nez Perces awaited him, asked
for volunteers. Scott joined him with his
six men and the group marched on. They
succeeded in capturing 42 warriors after
sharp fight. 1t was then that Maus
called Scott one Of the most valuable
soldiers in the service.

S HE limps around, part Of the
n time with the aid of a cane, Shlr-
n lev Garrity Of Helena reflects that
= \ from the time he was little
shaver and could read Kipling, he had
always wanted to hunt big game from
the back of an elephant in the jungles
of India or wherever the fussy lions and
tigers prOwl.
Not being able to crafty his youthful
ambition, he was forced to resort to
substitute, but even so, he didn't do that
until recently.
He conhded to his friend and fellow
worker, Charley Hartwig, that hunting
the lOng-eared Montana jackrabbit from
an automobile would furnish excitement.
The project appeared feasible to Charley
and ne improved on the idea. Instead
of the hOWdah which is a canOpled seat
atop an elephant, an ordinary kitchen
chair was lashed with rope and wire to
the bumper in front Of the radiator of
the Hartwig automobile. 1t looked like
a sure fire hit. From this chair Shirley
was assured he could blaze away at the
sage brush lions and tigers and get as
much sport out of the experience as he
could if he were in India, chasing the
real thing.
Charley volunteered to act as mahout
Of the gasoline elephant. So it was all
fixed up and few nights ago the hunt
was on.
All Set for the Hunt
Out in the valley the headlights of
the car picked up a mule-eared jack
hitting on all four for hence. Shirley
from his chair on the bumper cut loose
with a shotgun and the rabbit quit cold

Every effort is to be made to bring
to a successful conclusion the prelim-
inaTy work which has been done or
an air mail route between Great Falls
and Salt Lake, by way of Helena, Butte,
Idaho Falls and POcatelIO, according
to William G.. Ferguson, secretary Of
the Helena Commercial club, who at
tended a meeting held at Butte for the
purpose of discussing this route.
Representatives of the cities were en-
thusiastic over the possibilities.
1.-TWO proposals have been in the air.
said Mr.. Ferguson. "One Of these con-
templated route from Seattle to Min
neapoliS and the other the route from
Great Falls to Salt Lake. Because the
larger proposition has not been ade-
quately financed yet, and requires a ire
mendous amount Of work before it is in
shape to present to the post Office de-
partment, it was decided that the in
terested cities should proceed at once
with a survey of the amount of air mail
which can be obtained on the north
south route and that all of these figures
be compiled and made ready for presen-
tation at the time Of Assistant Postmas-
ter General Glovers visit to Montana.
Personal Interviews
After the meeting had listened to an
instructive talk by Aaron Singer Of Great
Falls, who has spent a great deal Of
J414lc investigating bIlG ar mali PROPOSE
ton, considerable discussion was had as
to the requirements of the postal depart
ment and the possibility Of meeting
them. It was decided that an actual
interview with the various business insti-
tutions was the only way in which this
could be ascertained and the work Of
collecting this information was assigned
to the representatives Of the cities at
the meeting.
According to figures presented at
Butte the new route would bring New
York within approximately one day in
Montana. The plans, as outlined at the
meeting, would dispatch a plane from
Great Falls in the morning and it would
connect with the east-bound transcon-
tinental plane at Salt Lake in the after
noon. The flying time from Great Falls
to Salt Lake was roughly estimated at
about seven hours and the established
schedule from Salt Lake to New York Is
20 hours, according to the pilots in at
tendance at the meeting. This would
effect saving Of at least two days time
from Montana points"
Form Organization
An organization was perfected for the
| purpose Of compiling the data sent in
from the various cities and getting it
into shape for presentation to NIr. Glover.
Attention is being called to the necessity
OF each city providing the necessary land
ing field in connection with the estab-
fishing Of this route. The following Of
1cers were chosen:
Aaron Singer Of Great Falls, president:
Frank Venable Of Butte, vice president.
and William @. Ferguson Of Helena, sec
