adventurers, to the great Sioux uprising of 1876, there has been but
one result of the contact between the whites and those of another
color. Powhatan, the diplomat, was as unable to keep his land from the
Anglo-Saxon invader as was Sitting Bull, the tactician. For nearly
four centuries the gradual conquest of the American continent went on
apace, with frightful carnage, suffering and race hatred. The most fit
survived; the people of lesser intelligence and thrift had to give way
to those of superior attainments.
It has been a picturesque struggle. There has been the fierce battling
against the Pamunkies of Virginia and Opechancanough, the ruthless
Virginian. There has followed the strange warfare in the rude forests
of Massachusetts with King Philip, and the neighboring contest with
Sassacus, chief of the Pequots. Later, was the sanguinary struggle in
the Mohawk Valley of New York; the wild fighting around the wooded
slopes of the Hudson; the swift marches and vainglorious retreats in
the dreamy forests near Lake George, and by the banks of the gray,
glittering Champlain.
Then, as the restless pioneers crept southward and westward, was the
carnage of Tippecanoe; the stalwart campaigning in the trackless forest
of the Illinois; the battling in the land of Weatherford, the Creek
conspirator; and the long-continued campaign in the dark and dismal
gloom of the Florida Everglades. It was a time which put men upon their
mettle, and in which no shirker or weakling could hope to have a place
of responsibility.
The most desperate struggles were between 1868 and 1876, struggles
which have made heroes of both red men and white. As the steel rails
of the Union Pacific road crept steadily but surely across the
continent, the Sioux and Cheyennes desperately endeavored to stem the
overwhelming influx of white settlers, who followed in the wake of
the army and the railroad. There was fighting--and plenty of it--for
Custer, Crook, Miles, Forsyth and the other gallant officers of the
United States army. Such chiefs as Roman Nose, Crazy Horse, Sitting
Bull and Red Cloud fought with all the tenacity and strength which they
could command. It was of no avail. The fields of the Rosebud; Beecher's
Island; the Little Big Horn; and Slim Buttes; mark stepping-stones in
the conquest of the continent by the white invader.
I, myself, have trod over the ground on which Opechancanough battled
with the whites in Virginia; have packed across the wide sweep of
prairie in Wyoming which once echoed with the wild shouts of the
followers of Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull; have slept near the crystal
waters of the Powder River; and have camped where the cañons once
echoed with the rifle shots of Lieutenant Sibley, a gallant scout of
Crook's command, who was with him at the battle of the Rosebud. There
were no signs of the red man in this magnificent country. He had
vanished from the grassy plateaus and beetling mountains, as had the
game which once abounded in the fertile land.
The Indian of the plains has disappeared. Now, educated in the ways
and customs of the whites, in various schools for the members of his
race, he joins in the conquest of the soil, and in modern progress, by
the same methods adopted by those of superior mental development. The
gorgeous war bonnets, magnificent trappings, and painted accoutrements
have given way to the sober dress and technical instruments of the
whites. The picturesqueness and color which surrounds the native
American will shortly fade away. Spirited has been the history of his
struggle for the land of his forefathers, and sad has been its ending.
Farewell to the Indian of the plains!
THE END.
