MmmM('Mm(m 4 By JOHN DICKINSON 8HERMAN rASCINATING nre the "Decisive Bnttles of the World" If not In themselves ns buttles, then In their effects upon his- IvtI tory. Hut inuny an armed contest s?l' rather a skirmish from a military t l viewpoint tnnn n -tiecisivu uhkukv- ment has had far-reaching results which make n fascinating story. For example: Chnmplnln, In discovering tho lako that bears hlB name, used his arque buses on a band of Indians from tho Ironuols Confederacy and set them running homo to the Mohawk valley of New York. This wus In 1000, two years after tho founding of Jamestown, eleven years before the Inndlng of tho Pilgrims nnd eighty years before tho beginning of the armed clash between tho French nnd English for the possession of America. It Is a far cry from 1009 to 1022; from Now York to Montana; from Iroquois to Flnthends. Just the same, It was Chnmplnln who set the feet of Marcus Whitman and Wither Pierre-Jean Do Smet, S. J., on the Oregon Trail two centuries later. Marcus Whitman, Presbyterian missionary, patriot, statesman and martyr, saved Oregon nnd the Pacific Northwest for the United States. Fa ther Dc Smet, greatest and most practical mission ary who ever labored among tho American In dians, dotted tho far Northwest with religious nnd educational establishments, kept many n savage tribe from tho warpath and served well the government of his adopted land. The history of the American Northwest ennnot bo told without Whitman nnd Do Smet both of whom Chnmplnln started over the Oregon Trnll to everlasting fame. And here Is the story In brief, with Its fascinating uequlturs sequences of cause hnd effect: Tho Iroquois Confederacy, becnuso of Cham plain's attack, swore undying enmity to tho French. Tho Indians of this unique confederacy Moluiwks, Cnyugas, Onondngns, Senecas, Oneldas"" nnd Tuscnroras by the time the French nnd Brit ish came to grips In 10S9, were dictatorial over lords of all the tribes from Hudson's bay to tho Cherokee frontier of tho Cnrollnas and from tho Connecticut to tho Mississippi. Their geograph ical location and Inilucncognve them the balonco of power between tho French and tho. British. They were a big factor In tho several wars which flnnlly resulted In tho expulsion of tho French after tho capture of Quebec by Wolfo In 17fif. In the Revolution nil the Iroquois kept on siding with the British, except tho Oneldas and part of tho Tuscaroras. They laid wnste tho American frontier. Sulllvnn led nn American punitive expe dition and destroyed their homes, crops and or elmrds. The outcome of tho Revolution drove tho four hostile tribes to Canada. In Canada many of tho exiled Iroquois were Christianized by Jesuit missionaries, whose prin cipal work In America had been In New Franco and tho French possessions. In 1810 a party of 21 Iroquois left the Romnn Catholic mission of.Caughmtwiign, Canada, on the St. Lawrence and struck out across the Mississippi valley. They ended up among tho Flatheads of the Bitter Root valley. These Iroquois were led by Ignatius La Mousse (Old Ignace), who achieved n dominating Inlluenco among the Flatheads, taught them the rites of the Roman Catholic re ligion and created a tribal deslro for the presence of Ulnckrobes (Jesuit missionaries) which resulted In a decision In ISIJO to send a delegation to tho white man's country to ask for them. Hero It Is profitable to glance at the chronology of this part of tho West, which was Just beginning to get acquainted with tho white man. St. Louis was founded In 1708. Tho Lewis nnd Clark expe dition (1801-0) hud pnssed through their country, 'john Colter had discovered the Yellowstono In ,1807, only to havo It ridiculed as an Impossibility 'nnd dubbed "Colter's Hell." Astoria had been established In 1812. Gen. William 11. Ashley and his nssoclntes of tho Rocky Mountain Fur compnny, with hendquarters at St. Louis, had begun to uso the Oregon Trail soon after 1822 on their trips to nnd from the annual rendezvous In the Green River vnlley, or In Pierre's Hole-under tho Tetons. Four braves volunteered to carry the request for Blnckrohes to St. Louis. There were Blackrobes nt this outpost of civilization. Their presence there Is a story In Itself. The restoration of tho Society of Jesus in 1814, nfter 41 years of suppres sion, found n few old Jesuit priests nt Whltemarsh, Md who had established there the first novltlato in the United States. In 182.1 nn offer of land nt St. Louis wus made to them. Twelvo set out for St. Louis April 11, 1823. They walked all tho way, carrying their goods In wagons. Among them was young Do Smet, who had como from Belgium In 1821 nt the nge of twenty. In 1827 ho wns or dained priest. In 1831 tho Missouri mission wns mndo Independent. In 1831 tho petition of the Second Provincial council nt Baltimore thnt tho Indlnn Roman Catholic missions of the United States ho confined to tho Society of Jesus was granted nt Rome. Thus the Jesuits entered upon a virgin field of labor of more than half the area of the United Stntcs. Tho four Flatheads Joined the 1831 return train of William L. Sublette, one of the famous Rocky Mountain Fur compnny's trnders, and reached St. Louis October 1. They presented their petition to Bishop Rosntl. Two of tho Indians fell .111. They died nnd wero burled In tho Romnn Catholic cemetery. Tho two survivors left St. Louis tho following spring, but never renched home. They may be the two Indians Georgo Cat lln painted Nos. 207 and 20S In his gallery of Indlnn pnlntlngs. This unique request from the Flnthends gained nation-wide publicity. A sympathetic account wns published In tho Christian Advocnte. In 1S33 an editorial In tho Christian Advocato pronounced It a call to tho Christian conscience of tho world and exhorted tho Protestant churches to tako It up In earnest. In those days, to the East, the nnmo Flathead Included all tho tribes In the vast nrea from Montnna to the mouth of the Columbia nnd northwnrd Into Canada. The Methodists raised funds nnd In 1831 started a missionary expedition under tho leadership of Jnson Lee of Cnnnda. The party kept on past tho Bitter Root country and began operations non the mouth of the Columbia. Tho Presbyterians In 1835 sent Marcus Whitman to Oregon. He returned, reported, and In 1830 went buck with his wife nnd n pnrty to begin his labors at Walllatpu among tho Cayuses. Thus tho net result of tho first Flathead expe dition to St. Louis for Blnckrohes In Montana was Protestant missionaries In Oregon. Tho Flatheads of Montana tried n second time to get n Blnckrobe. In 1830 Old Ignnco with his sons Charles and Francis went to St. Louis and returned tho following spring with the promise thnt a Blackrobo would he sent In time. In 1837 tho Flatheads started their third deputa tion. In consisted of Old Ignace, three Flatheads and a Nez Perce. All wero massacred by Sioux en route to St. Louis. Not In tho lenst disheartened by theso three failures, the Flatheads sent to St. Louis n fourth time. The two petitioners, Young Ignnco and Pierre Gaucher, traveled safely by canoo down tho Yellowstono and Missouri nnd arrived October 21, 1830. Bishop Rosntl promised them n Blnckrobe the following spring. Gnuchcr immediately set out with the good news. He arrived In the Bitter Root valloy early In the spring a most remark able Journey. Father Do Smet volunteered for tho arduous mission. At Westport (Knnsns City) ho Joined tho 1810 expedition of the American Fur compnny to tho Green River rendezvous. There Do Smet found Gaucher and ten Flnthends to meet him. They went to Pierre's Hole, whoro wero encamped the main body of the Flnthends, who had como 800 miles to meet him, together with bands of Nez Perccs, Pend d'Orellles and Kullspels about 1,000 In all. He baptized and Instructed, postponed his visit to tho Bitter Root nnd renched St. Louis by way of tho Jefferson and Missouri rivers Decem ber 81, 1840. Ho wns then Informed that thero were no funds for the promised expedition. So ho went out and raised funds. Tho spring of 1841 found him on the Oregon Trail, accompanied by two priests and three lay brothers. At Fort Hill on the Snnko river In August he was met by nn ndvnnce party of Flatheads. Passing through the site of Mis soula, they went 30 miles Into the Bitter1 Root vnlley, nrrlvlng September 24. There nnd then Do Smet began work on St. Mary's mission. De Smet, In the spring of 1842, made a Journey of Inspection as far as the mouth of the Columbia. Thnt fall found; him again In St. Louis. In 1843 ho solicited for'the mission south to New Orlenns nnd east to Boston, nnd took three recruits nnd supplies to Westport and started them west. Then lie set sail for Europe. After visiting tho principal cities of six countries ho embarked at Antwerp December 12, 1843, with four fathers, a lay brother and six sisters and supplies. Tho voyage was around Cape Horn. They were'nearly wrecked on the Columbia river bar, but landed safely July 31, 18-14, and went nt onco to the Bit ter Root mission. These Bitter Root Flatheads, by the way, seem to have been too good Jo be true. AH cxplorors, traders and travelers bear witness to their high moral character and attractive ways. De Smet says of them: "I was not able to discover nmong these peoiilo tho slightest blameworthy act, unless It wns their gambling, In which they often venturo everything they possess. Theso games wore unanimously i nf wtllutimf (id L'Arm nu T linjt ail.. I., n.1 . .1 ..... ' 111uiiii.u, no ouuii na m. nun .-Ajiliii.iui. IW llltllll I I1IIC they were contrary to the commandment of God, ... I have often asked myself: 'Is It theso people whom the civilized nations dare to call by thu name of savages?' " De Smet then passed two strenuous years In exploring, visiting tribes and establishing missions) Ho arrived at St. Louis December 10, 1810. What had he accomplished In the seven -yean; since he first hit the Oregon Trail? For ono thing, his labors, travels, hardships and perils belong In the first rank of similar expjolts. He had traveled nearly r0,000 miles In every nirt of conveynnco and In every kind of climnte. As he onco wrote: "I wns two years In the mountains without tast Ing bread, salt, coffee, ten, sugar. I was for years wllthout a roof, without a bed. I havo been six months without a shirt on my back, and often I have passed whole days and nights without n mor sel of anything to ent." These arduous labors had at lenst this rewnrd: lie hud becomo a great power among the Indian, tribes. All knew him, either personally or by repj utatlon. Also bo was perhaps the one white man whom all trusted. So trusted was he that tho United Uilon government at lenst flvo times asked his services as a mediator with various tribes. Tho ordlnnry, usual settlement- of the Bitter Root country began In 1SG1 nt Missoula now n modern city of 15,000, which played host last sum mor to tho National Editorial association. Tho Flatheads aro Its near neighbors on a reservation they havo occupied slnco 1801. The 1022 equivalent of Do Smet's establishment In 1811 of St. Mary's mission In tho Bktcr Root vnlley Is tho Mission of St. Ignatius and the Sis ters of Charity of Providence at St. Ignatius In tho present Flathead reservation lying betwoen Missoula and Flathead lake. The original St. Mary's In the Bitter Root valley Is now Stevens vllle. Thero stands St. Mary's church, built by Father Anthony Rnvnlll In 1800. This "kind, good priest and friend of all mankind" nrrlved nt tho mission In 184f and for forty years'mlnlstered to all alike, Indian and white man, Romnn Cnthollc and Protestant. His tombstone stands In tho cem etery buck of St. Mary's and Rnvnlll, n town In the Jocko valley, bears his name.
