The History of the Negottations, their and the Situatiou.

th. r. "About this time look out for Indian tron bles" Such has been the mental "conjecr ture" for Spring in the border almanac for many years-until Baker brought a new order of things on the Marias. Since then ed peace has been maintained. This season the indications are portentous and ominous of evil.

There has been a serious mistake made-the mistake of delay in ratifying agreements with and providing the consideration to the Indians by the Government. Six months ago it seemed that Sitting Bull's Siouxs would yield their arrows for sugar and shirts. It seems likely now that they 5 will be on the war path. General Sheridan telegraphs their appearance far down the is river, menacing the Northern Pacific Road, a Commission is appointed by the Secretary of Interior to reach and if possible conciliate them, and the advertisement for supn plies for the Teton Sioux contains the signitfiant they be need Now, to this condition of affairs, there is a history leading tup, and we propose to give it before polities monopolise space and interest, premising that with no abatement of the conviction that the government of the American Indians is founded and maintainaed upon a theory of absurd folly, a failure to carry out that policy with good faith and promptness, while it is the policy, is worse than to have none at all. For many years the Sioux are known to have been the most powerful, and with the exception of the Apaches, the most warlike of Indians During the past year treaties were made by special agent A.

J. Simmons with the Santee and Yanktonian Sioux, two strong bands, who have since remained peaceable near the Milk River Agency. receiving rations and manifesting a disposition to accept the situation. There still remained the Teton Sioux, about 7.000 strong, under Sitting Bull, the war chief succeeding Red Cloud. With these Indians Mr.

Simmons opened negotiations last summer, and in September held a council, in which the Tetons agreed to remain at peace until the Agent could communicate with the Great 'lather, and if he would compensate them for loss of country and game on account of the N. P. R. R. going through their hunting grounds, they would leave the war path and remain at peace.

The Agent recommended an appropriation for them I conditional upon their good behavior; it was approved by Superintendent Viall, advocated by Delegate Clagett, and by recommendation of the Indian Department a eon. ditional appropriation of $500,000 was inserted in the appropriatioan bill, and is now a law. This, however, was not done tor six months. During the winter they. remained quiet, Sitting Bull sending sev eral times to the Agent to inquire what wouhi he done, and Agent Simmons repeatedly appealing to the Department for prompt action, as with the opening of spring.

unless he coiuld give them final answer, they would inevitably make trouble. But the wheels of legislation could not be accelerated. Finally the peril of the situation became manifest, and after twice ing that immediate action to. satisfy was necessary to prevent them froma goiilg to war, AKgnt Simmons was instructed by telegraph April 28d, to issue provisions to them. Oan'April 24th, he ind his part.y Benton i Mackinaw and made ail ble speed for Fort Peck, it.

waswell known when they left Benton that the Indiant bad broken camp and the river was lihed with war parties. Arriving at Peck, it was demonstrated the authority had comet bo late. Abo.at theist of April, a war party of Mountain Crows had diahed into the 'l(ph camp in the night and run' off 500 bead ofborses. The Tetons followed, only recovering 100 Roused by this, learn if the Agentbad an ftom them, and believing Agent SBlmons had deceied and that they would get nothing fromi thhe.Uovi ernment, Sitting Bull broke camp, took M50lodges.about one-half the dared he would wage-war on the Railroad, sad left fpr Grand.Rlver and Fort Rice to rade robes for carbines and breech- loading firearms they -oald rot obtam in this 8aperintendency.

co)ncerninlg lthe N'ithern Pacific which cannIIot biut to your numitmrous readers. GeCnecral S.praague, who represents the interests of the Northern Pacific in Oregon. has just arrived from that State. He brings information that the N. P.

Railroad now being constructed front Olympia to Kalamath on tile Columlbila, will be completed to Kualunat lh by the first of October. The Northern Pacific Company have purchased the steamers and railroads of the Oregon Steam Navigation Company, and will run them in counnection with this road to the mouth of Snake river. At that point they will soon comnmenoe work on the main trunk of the Northern Pacific, which will approach Montana by the way of Pen D'Oreille It is intended to complete 280 miles of this line by or before July of next year. Eight hundred and fifty tons of iron have already arrived at Kalamath, which is to be immediately forwarded to the mouth of Snake river, pieparatory to a commeniemnent of operations. You will readily perceive from these facts that the iron horse will enter Missoula from the west sooner than from the east, and that the connection of the eastern and western divisions, will be made at or near Deer Lodge.

The road is much nearer completion than our citizens had calculated. Settlers are rapidly populating that portion of the route between Snake river and Pen D'Oreille Lake, and undoubtedly will continue on in advance of the road until it enters the settled portious of Montana. The land is reported to be very fertile, and favorable to the cultivation of all the fruits anid vegetables of tile States. It is alto well timbered and affords abundant water privileges for the construction of machinery. Two years will scarcely elapse until we shall be provided withl means of transportation to either ocean.

And in anticipation of this grand event, I hear it whispered that A LINE Or S'rAOGS will be put on the route at ant early day, affording the nearest and quickest route from Montana to the Pacific. This, of itacif would be an important event for our Territory, and open up a thoroughfare which would rapidly become a favorite route of travel.
