"G0lD lEAD' TREATMENT, URGED AS CURE FOR THE HOSTILE
INDIANS BY IRATE CONGRESSMAN, RENDERED UNNECESSARY
BY FRONTIER DIPLOMACY DIM EASTERN M0NTAMA'S EARLY DAYS
(By "MON TANA LOU" GRILL

IN THE feverish aftermath of the In
dian warfare days of the late sew
enties it frequently happened that
the Cheyennes in southeastern Mon
tana became uneasy. Excitable by ma
ture they were inclined to give trouble
where it was least expected. The gov
eminent was confronted with a prob
lem that taxed the ingenuity OF the
authorities to solve. Two schools OF
thought arose. On one side was the
opinion expressed by General Nelson
A. Miles, conqueror of the wandering
warning bands Of Indians, that the
aborigines could be made ~self-support-
ing if given land and implements with
which to till it. On the other hand
were the editorial opinions expressed
that the Indian should be gradually
eliminated through natural or un-
natural processes of determination. One
editorial writer went SO far as to sug-
gest an application of cold lead, or
surgical operations TO prevent the per-
petuation of the nations.
The people of Miles City, IN Thurs
day, July 16, 1885, were awakened to
the possibility of trouble from Chey-
enne Indian sources. John Cook, a
prominent rancher in the south coun-
try, arrived in the city on that day and
reported that he saw n hundred te-
PEGS arranged in a circle at the con-
fluence of Otter creek and Tongue rlv-
err. The CheyenneS had been engaged
in dancing and making medicine since
July u. They had left their houses
on the reservation and congregated
at the tepees. Mr.. Cook said that he
heard that word had been sent to
Black Wolf, a prominent chief, to come
in or his horses would be killed.
He came. The location on which the
tepees were erected was known as
White Bulls bottom. At the same time
the Pratt brothers, who also arrived
in the city, reported that they saw over
one hundred bucks moving up the
Tongue river, and heard many reports
of uneasiness among the Cheyennes.
The late J. j. Thompson of Forsyth,
then living in the Rosebud valley, rec
ognized among the Cheyennes as Long
Beard" the Big White Chief, who was
in Miles City about the same time,
characterized the trouble las a little
excitement. That's about the size OF
it. 1t may not turn out well" he said.
Mr.. Thompson said that the Indians
had heard from the nation and all
were uneasy IN account of trouble in
the southern district. Every buck from
twelve years of age up carried a belt
full of cartridges and was well pre-
pared. There were three factions, Mr..
Thompson explained. The C~heyennes
on the Tongue river, those on the
Rosebud, and Cheyenne visitors from
the Pine Ridge agency, the latter Wis
iting with their relatives on the
Tongue river. He explained further
that he understood that a party of
bucks went over to the Rosebud from
the Tongue and insisted on the Indi-

MONTANA HAS FEWER
FATALITIES IN AUTO

Though deaths in motor vehicle ac-

United States as a whole during the

company reveals, recorded l2.5 per cent
fewer deaths from that
This state is among the 10 that
showed decreases. Only Nevada, Rhode
Island and Connecticut exceeded Mon

The report shows 90 deaths in this
state during the period as compared
with 70 during the corresponding
months of 1929.

of danger at the hands of troops of
the United States, and they are base
enough to break them without notice
and without conjunction the moment
it suits their savage purpose to do so.
Hundreds of innocent lives have been
made sacrifices to the attempt to civil
lie these untamable brutes, and their
latest atrocities are their very blOodi-
est. 1t is now time for this Well-in-
tentioned but mistaken policy of kind
ness to these bloOd-thirsty enemies of
civilization to be permanently aban-
doned, and, as Congressman Perkins
suggests, for the cold lead remedy to
be given a short and vigorous trial.
Perhaps, if the government could af-
ford it, it might be we'll to disarm pos
sible criticism by keeping a standing
army of %overawing proportions con-
stantly on the frontiers and permitting
the more dangerous tribes to die of old
age. But in the meantime surgery
should be called into service to prevent
the perpetuation of the species. The
insatiate and incurable Indian muir
derers should be eXtinguished."
Happily, however, SO far as the sit
uation in southeastern Montana was
concerned, the prompt concentration
of soldiers on the spot produced the
desired effect. The disarming of the
Indians and the enforcement of the
law making it an offense to sell arms
and ammunition to the Indians was
stressed. The immediate situation vas
settled by informing the Cheyennes
that the visiting Pine Ridge agency
bucks must return to their own reserva-
ton, and the Rosebud River Indians
would have to go to the Tongue River
Cheyennes when the rations were dis
tributed, a procedure that was fixed
by Colonel Bannister on a previous
occasion when he inspected the condi-
tons.

DEER CROSSES ROAD IN
FRONT OF AUTO PARTY

A blacktail buck with fine antlers
crossed the main highway near Cor
wallis recently in front of an auto
mobile driven by Mrs. Charles
Schwab. The deer was in the road
when it was first seen, and it lOped
gracefully over a fence and joined
a herd of cattle. With Mrs. Schwab
we're Daisy Allen and her mother,
Mrs. Rose Hull, visitors from Eu-
gene, Ore. Mrs. Hull is 81 years OF
age and made her home in the Bit
ter Root 60 years ago, when it was
not uncommon to see wild life along
the wooded roads and trails.

STATUS AWAITS VERDICT.

RICHMOND, Va, September % (Pl.--
The News Leader today quotes Super
intendent David Hepburn of the Vir-
ginia Anti-Saloon League as saying
Bishop James Cannon's continued con-
nection with the league as an executive
committeeman depends upon his status
with the church. i.
In an interview with the paper today,
the Anti-Saloon League superintendent
said he knew nothing of Bishop Cam
mons stock market transactions, and
was not familiar with letters the Bishop
is alleged to have written on Anti
Saloon League stationery.
AS long as Bishop, Cannon Is a
churchman and a Bishop in good stand
ing with his church he will remain in
his present position as q member of the
executive committee Of the league" Mr..
Hepburn is quoted in the interview.
HE is a member of the AntigSaloon
League of Virginia as a churchman and
as Bishop, and his future status in
the league depends, Of course, upon his
future status in the church."
Miss A. l.. Burroughs treasurer of che
league, who served as Bishop Cannon's
confidential secretary here in 1923, had
nothing to say today relative TO the
mention of her name in letters said to
have been written by the Bishop to .
Mr.. Goldhurst of Kable e. Co., the firm
through which stock transfers we're
made.
