JOHN BRATT WRITES OF
OLD SIOUX LOOKOUT
JtELATES INCIDENTS OF PIONEER
JJFE WITH THIS SAND DUNE
AS THE BASE
Sioux Indians Gathered on tills Emi
nence to Wntch for the Advnn.
clng Emigrant nnd Freighting'
Wagons Hound Wostwnrd.
(The following artlblo wrltton by
John Uratt at tho request of members
of Sioux Lookout chapter, Daughters
of tbo American RovolMlcm, was
read at a recent meeting of tho Chap
ter, nd as It contains much of hlstor
cal Interest, we are glad to publish It.
Editor.)
In compliance with your request for
information as to what I know about
Sioux Lookout, tho adopted namo of
your Chaptor, would say that I regret
that I cannot glvo you Its early his
tory.
It Is located on tho north half of
section 33, township .13, Rango 29, and
is about 300 feot high. Thlovlng, rov
ing bands of Indians, principally the
Sioux, made its crest tholr rendezvous
between tho years 1847 anil' 18S0
Hero they planned tholr raids and at
tacks on tho unsuspecting emigrant,
freight trains, stage coaches and pony
express riders and later on tho set
tlers and cattlomen.
It is claimed that tho commanders
of many military expeditions, moving
east or west of this prominent point,
often made use of It to see if tho trail
along this part of tho Platte valley
was clear. Captain Ware, of Seventh
Iowa Cavalry, in his bbok entitled,
"Tho Indian War of 1864,' refers to
Sioux Lookout. w
I passed Its base in tho early part of
July, 1S66, enroute with our ox trains,
totaling 150, on our way to Fourth
Company Post, lator named Fort Phil
Kearney. In 18GS John (Burke with
his family had built a road ranch on
this, known now as the Oregon Trail,
about ono and one-half miles east of
Sioux Lookout. When ono day"- a
bunch of Sioux Indians pounced down
upon them from this same Sioux Look
out, Mr. andMrs. Burke barely had
time to hitch a team to a wagon, In
which all the children were dumped,
my wife, Mrs. Bratt, then a littlo girl,
inclifded, the team never breaking a
lopo until It ran Into Fort Cottonwood,
later known as Fort McPllorson. Tho
Burkes lost everything they had at the
ranch, Jadding, fclothing, merchan
dise, all live stock; all that was saved
was the team and tho clothes that they
had on. Tho Indians took everything
they could and then burned tho ranch
Indian raids became more frequent,
from this on, Many of them seemed
to originate at Sioux Lookout. The
government herd of horses nnd mules
attracted their and other Indians' at
tention frequently.
John Burko, tho present manager of
the North Platte stockyards, was eight
years old when one of these Indian
raids occurred nnd all alone rode up
to the Bishop road ranch, some ten
miles west of tho presont state ex
perimental farm, and notified Mr.
Bishop and family that tho Indians
were coming. This courageous feat
of John saved the Bishop family, but
nothing else.- The Bishop family nev.
er returned to 'the ranch, everything
was taken or burned.
In 18G9 I helped to fill a govern
ment hay contract of 3300 tons at Mc
Pherson and the Indians raided our
outfits several times, same with Mc
Donalds, Burkes and others. In 18G9
I bought out tho Interests of John
Walto in tho cattle business with Qoe
& Carter. In 1870, wishing to keep a
closer watch on Sioux Lookout, the
bottom and tho country south of It, I
built a camp in tho neck of a pocket
Or short canyon about throe quarters
of a mile- east of Sioux Lookout. Here
I kept two fearless cowboys whose
duty it was to roport any Indians in
tho vicinity of Sioux Lookout.
Our lino riders from tho home ranch
now tho Turpio ranch would usu
ally meet tho other two. men and com
pare notes- I had cautioned tho line
riders and our other men nevor to
follow tho same trail twice In suc
cession. Thoy disobeyed this order
once. Tho result, William Jlix re
ceived two Indian bullets through his
"body. Rix and his partner plugged

With the . risk of being considered
egotistical, I will state that I have
been chased several times whon going
dawn from our ranch to Fort Mc
PhorBon, wblch we supplied with beef
cattlo for several years. As a rule
tho Indians would sweep down from
Sioux Lookout. vOnco I had to swim
the North Platto rlvor to save mysolf.,
On thoso raids tho Indians did not
have it all their own way, since aftor
them wo "would often find somo doad
Indians laid out anj tied to upper
branchos of trees in adjacent canyons.
Those bodies would lator fall to the
ground whoro I and our men would
gather up tho bleached bones nnd de
posit them in somo unmarked grave,
belloving that humanity to man de

THE LAW ON GAMBLING
iTN'DER ITS PROVISIONS HOYS
AltE NOT PERMITTED TO
PLAT MARBLES.
A Strict Enforcement of thtStututo
Would Rule Ont Certain Jteoro
ntlou that Is Anything1 Jml
Harmful-
To tho Public: Gambling, Hko
many ether wdrds, has a popular
meaning which may vary with times,
conditions and locnlltios. Tho ' word
haa an ugly sound. Thoro aro fow
people wno care to have tho namo
gamblor applied to themselves or
their friends.
When a discussion is started nB to
tho card games, played in cigar stores
ior mercnanuise chocks it is always
sugested that this is not gambling;
tho man on tho other side will then
refer to tho statute "which provides
that any -one who plays fbr anything
of value shall bo guilty etc., but I
have never known the statute which
gives the most comprehensive defini
tion- of gambling to have been called
to tho attention of the people of North
Platto. This statute was adopter with
our criminal codo In 1873. It roads
as follows: v
"Whoever,- at nny time, plays In nny
ordinary, (morn, or race Hold, or In
any booth, nrbor, outhouse or other
erection connected with such tavern,
ordinary or "race field or at any other
public place, at any game whatsoever,
except games of athletic exorcises, or
bets or wngcrs on tno nanus or sides
of such ns do piny ns aforesaid, shall
pay u fine in any sum not exceeding
one hundred dollars."
This should dlsptd any doubt as to
whether or not these games como with
in the law. It Includes within Its
terms marbles or spinning tops as
played by bbya on tho streets, or a
gamo of Jack stones, by tho girlB, in
tho band stand. A game of checkers
In tho Y. M. C. A. could be dofonded
only on the possible technicality that
3uch was not in ;v public placo-
Laws of this kind aro sometimes
made broad in their application so that
prosecutions tor actual violations will
not fall for want of evidence,
- Ot,'oiirs&tha point is, that officers
chai getV with tho enforcement of. such
law-3 must exercise a rational dlscrc'
tion as tp where to draw tho lino and
as to what practices are harmful to
the community and of courso this dl3r
cretlou Is governed by what tho peoplo
think.
Petitions wero presented to tho
Council asking that "tho laws regard
ing gambling bp enforced in tho city
of Nor,h Platto."
It is clear that the word gambling
as used in the petition was not intend
ed as in tho definition given by tho
above statute. Then what Is tho gen
erally accepted idea of gambling In
the domnvunlty. This Is to what we
must look as -a basis of enforcement. I
It Is generally accepted that' these
petitions wero directed against the
cigar store games, and without doubt
mnny signers regard them as gam
bling and harmful. On the other hand
many do not regard them as such.
Many, of tho men who play aro tho
back bono of tho city nnd do not
knowingly do anything wrong.
Tn my judgment It Is a question of
civic welfare and not of morals. Some
places havo banished those games;
others havo not. Thoro is littlo ques
tion but that thoy will all go in North
Platto sooner or lator, but for present
consideration I desire to call atten
tion to tho following roasons' why' I
do not bollovo such action opportuno:
1. These games aro not essentially
wrong. Tho men who piny thom do
not so regard them-
2. Thoy aro an established institu
tion, and it Is hazardous to chango ex
isting conditions especially such as
havo to do so vitally with tho social
conditions of so many people.
S. A half dozen or moro business
housos rely on theso gunres aB their
chief source- of revenue. Thoy repre
sent business devolopcd with tho ap
proval of the community.
4. Business conditions have not yet
becomo fully adjusted to tho abolition
of tho saloon and tho ruling out of an
other lino of enterprise would bo pro
carious to business at this time.
5. Tho dally, population of North
Platto contains an unusual number of
transients wlio nre without homo,
ciut) or uopot accommodations and who
generally patronlzo thoso places.
0. The presont typo of cigar store
1s a form of club room and a ruling
out of tho card games would brlntr a
chango In arrangements to morcly ac-
commouato tno counter trado.
i, inoso ciud room leaturcs are
necessary as tho men of tho town have
adopted this stylo of placo as their
social gathorlng place.
8- Thero is no substitute offorcd
as a placo of social cathorlnc. Thoso
places havo boon crowded all winter
not only with persons who might want
to piny cards, but with thoso who had
no other placo to go to keep warm or
10 moot tuoir mentis.
9. It would bring about tho substl
stltution of clandestine appointments
for tho orderly placo open to public
inspection. nospoctrully,
E. II. EVANS, Mayor.
