Indians on War
Path Because the
Whites Rob Graves
Relic Hunters Open Mod
ern Graves in Search
for Artifacts

What Is 1t about collecting Indian
artifacts that makes ghouls Of peo-
pie who are ordinarily fine and
kindly? A few nights ago, several
Indians came over to Priest Rapids
from Yakima, much excited after
hearing that someone was again
digging into their tribal graves and
stealing the few pitiful belongings
that the Indian buries with his dead
in order that they may be more
comfortable in their upward jour-
ney.
Several Of them. accompanied by
Chief John Buck and Sam Joe, drove
and rode up to their cemetery and
found that many of the new graves
had been desecrated. On Monday,
some friends of the Priest Rapids
Indians Travelled over the ground
and found that the stories were all
too true. Many of the graves had
been dug into and rifled. One was q
woman,s grave, and evidently all
they found were her dishes and bed
ding. Whoever did the work didn't
have the decency to put the things
back into the grave and cover them
up again, but left them scattered.
Several hundred years ago, the
Indians supplied their dead with
bows, arrows and spears, wrapped
them in their best blankets or skins,
gave them food for their onward
journey and covered them with dirt
and rocks, but those who have died
in the past thirty to fifty years,
have no such treasures. All they
have IS their clothes, dishes and
bedding. Surely the people who do
this cannot want these things. In
one of the cemeteries, nearly all Of
the graves are reported as having
been rifled. A few days ago. two
children who had been wandering
over the hills came home and told
their parents that they had found
an open grave up on the hill and
that there were bones and q skull
piled around it.
: One Of the IndiaRs said. Indians
no dig n White MINIS grave. White
Man dig up Indians" :
- We believe that the party who
tries it again win be very ill-advised.
The Indians are thoroughly aroused
over the matter, and justly so, and
from appearances, 1t looks as though
the ghouls might run into trouble.
One Indian claims to know who; it
Is, and where he lives. However, it
is not just one mans work. It would
take two men to move some Of the
stones by which the Indians en-:
'deavor to protect their dead.
