OUTPUT OF SILVER
IN MONTANA
PRODUCTION FIGURES ARE BEING
COMPILED AT MONTANA SCHOOL
OF MINES

The silver production figures for
Montana are now being compiled by 2.
c. Gilbert, of the staff of the "Inven-
tory of Mineral our of Montana"
under FERA auspices, at the Montana
School of Mines. The preliminary es-
innate, covering the years 1861 to 1884
inclusive, is GAL 100000 fine ounces.
Approximately 47O, 100000 ounces, 70
per cent, is credited to the silver, cop
per, lead and zinc mines of Silver Bow
county.
The production OF silver outside OF
Silver Bow county, totaling 172.85o.0 900
ounces came from 10 counties, the most
important being Granite, Jefferson, Beav-
erhead, Lewis and Clark. Cascade. Broad
water, Meagher. Deer Lodge, Flathead.
Madison and Powell. With increasing
prices for silver. the output of dry silver
ores, for example, ores which contain
but little lead, copper and zinc, should
be stimulated.
For many years the volume Of silver
production in Montana has been largely
a question Of prices Of the base metals,
silver being mostly a by-product.
These areas in the state which are
known to ave dry silver ores merit
the attention Of the prospector and miner
at this time. However, copper, lead and
zinc ores which carry a high content Of
silver should be carefully investigated.
The staff of the Inventory of Mineral
Resources is now engaged in a detailed
study of the future silver possibilities

speaking in a good natured manner.
That is true" replied Boyd. Then

ficer in command that they had found
This singular trail and wanted to know
what kind of an animal it was, and
Which way he was going"
While the pursuit of Sitting Bull was
being carried forward, Miles divided
his command into three columns. He
did this in order to more fully recon-
noltre the country. Miles retained COM
mand of one division. Captain Snyder
was placed in command of another di-
vision, and Lieut.. Baldwin was placed
in command of the third division. A
wider range of territory thus being
covered, it fell to the fortune of Lieut..
Baldwin to strike Sitting Bulls camp
at the head of the Red Water. Bald
win lost no time in effecting a con-
tact. He struck at the Indian camp
with force and captured a large part
of Sitting Bulls camp equipment and
some horses.
Subsequently in a letter written to a
friend, Baldwin describes his eXper-
fence. His feelings of responsibility
were profound when he decided to
move fro1n the Assinniboine agency
southwark to the Yellowstone by way
of the Red Water river, "in the face OF
the most positive opposition of every
officer with me-" he wrote. The morn

long as Sitting Bull was off the reser-
walton the country was not entirely safe
from the incursions and raids of steal
ing parties that came from his camp

refused all overtures for peace. General

gether with the commander of the Can
adam forces, met Sitting Bull with

Disaffected. Indians from different
agencies gradually found their way to
Sitting Bulls camp to join his forces
on Canadian soil. From a small camp
of a few hundred lodges his following
increased to close to two thousand In
dams.
In the summer of 1879 Sitting Bulls
camp was reported south of the bound
airy. Learning Of this fact, a COM
mand from Fort Keogh crossed the
Yellowstone river and moved north.
Crossing the Missouri river at Fort
Peck, and going to Milk river and cross
ing that stream, Sitting Bull was en-
countered when a sharp engagement
followed on July II, resulting in the
defeat of the Indian forces.
Two companies of Indian scouts I'M

attack against a band Of warriors near

to support Lieut.. Clark. Deploying
across the rolling prairie at a gallop a
rapid charge was made against the hos
tile Sioux under Sitting Bull. Lieut..
Rice, in command of the artillery unit,
galloped into position. Throwing a shell
into the ranks of the Indians, the Sioux
warriors made a precipitate retreat.
Abandoning their property they fled
north until they reached the 49th par
allel, which they found to be a safe
barrier against the further pursuit of
the forces under Colonel Miles.
Subsequently, Sitting Bull, weary of
the strife, with hopes gone that he
would ever be able to regain the ter
ritory he regarded as belonging to him.

returned to the Standing Rock agency
where he met a tragic death at the
hands of his own people during what
is known in Indian history as the

ing south from the northern pastures,
grazing in the valleys. Sitting Bull
was in need of food supplies. He knew
that as the autumn season advanced
he would have an opportunity to make
a killing that would give his followers
an abundant supply of meat for the
winter. He also knew that the valley
of the Big Dry was a pasture that drew
thousands of buffalo.
The trail was followed for some dis
lance when it was obliterated by a
severe snow storm. Winter descended
early that fall . November brought sew

Colonel Nelson A. Miles returned

to the cantonment at the mouth OF
Tongue river late in October, 1876.
His first engagement with the hos
tile Indians Of the northwest had
been successful. Sitting Bull, with
about $500 followers, had been de-
feated in a running battle for a dis
lance of about AZ miles, extending
east to Cedar creek, on the north side
Of Yellowstone river. Approximately
1000 warriors agreed to return to
their agencies and surrender to the
government. Five chiefs held as
hostage for the faithful performance
Of their promises were removed also
to the agencies. During the negotia-
tons that took place, Sitting Full,
Chief Gall, Pretty Bear and several
other Indian leaders, with close to
400 Indians, broke away fror, tho
