The True Story1 the March of
the Poncas.
The severe criticism , on the part of
a portion of the press of the United
States , of Secretary Sohurz' manage
ment of the Indian Bureau of the
Interior Department has come large
ly from persons but little competent
to judge of such matters , and is in a
good degree refuted by the testimony
of those who have had a life-time of
experience ou the frontier and among
the Nation's wards.
As most of the readers of THE BEE
know , Mr. W. H. H. Llewellyn's
business has been auch that for the
past two years he has had occasion to
visit all of the Indian agencies in Da
kota , whBre the great bulk of the In
dians are located , and also
most of the agencies in Wyoming
and Montana , each of which
has a considerable portion of the In
dian population. In addition to his
recent trips Mr. Llewellyn has had a
large erpodcnco with the various In
dian tribes , and is thoroughly convers
ant with their D&st , aa well aa their
present , oondltion and habits.
He is thui competent to com-
parotho present condition of
the Indian with what he knew it to.be
years a < ? o , and to judge of the ad
vancement they have made since then
in morals and civilization generally ,
especially In the case of the Nez For
ces , Flatheads , Pen d'Oreiiles , Black-
feet , Pegans , Croirs and other upper
Missouri river Indians.
In convars&tlon with our reporter ,
a few days after his return from the
west , he eald , in speaking of the
secretary , and the adverse criticism
his course had met , that the opposi
tion grew largely out of the removal
of the Poncas , whose troubles have
become a national question and the
most prominent one of the kind now
before the people of the United
States.
"What do yon know about the re
moval oT the Poncas ? " asked our re
porter.
"Tho removal of that tribe , " said
Mr. Llewellyn , "was no doubt origi
nally a proposition of their own , and
the desire on their part for a change
of location was duo to the hostile and
unfriendly attitude assumed toward
them by-the adjoining Sioux tribes. "
"It is the general understanding , la
it not , that the Poncas were ejected by
force from their reservation ? "
"I have read sensational reports of
their removal which would load "one
unacquainted with the facta to sup
pose that they Vere. The truth.ia , as
Is well known to hundreds of people
in Nebraska , that they departed from
their reservation in high old glee , and
their fine-wagon train , as thay crossed
the olains of Nebraska , resembled a
first-class emigrant outfit , provisioned
aud equipped for a'long journey. "
In the spring of 77 I saw at Bea
trice , Neb. , one division of the Poncas
on their way to the Indian territory
and their stout canvas covered wagons
excellent&orses and equipments gen
erally , were far superior to that of hun
dreds of white settlers who come into
this aud adjoining states , BO that all
roportsabout their cruel removal are
pure "taffy. "
"I have been in the camp of the
Poncas when they were In constant
dread of Incursions from the hostile
Sioux , and their condition was in
describable ; ] of all the hubbub and
confusion you ever heard , that was
the worst. They kept sentinels out
all the time , and were in fear of their
lives anti-property constantly. Of
course as to the legal technicalities of
their case I know nothing. "
"In-R-hat respect is the condition
of the Indians now better than for
merly t'1
"In nearly every particular. Their
moral and social progress has been es
pecially gratifying to those who watch
with interest theirjcase. Roports'froin
the missions and industrial schools
established among the various tribes
clearly indicate the wisdom of the
course which has been , adopted in re
gard to them. Among the most bene
ficial reforms inaugurated by Secretary
Schurz , is that of having disciplined
Indian police , who now dp effective
asrvice at all the Indian agencies. "
The transportation of Indian sup
plies by the Indians themselves has
been one of the grandest innovations
made and resulted in great benefit to
all concerned. At largo agencies ,
like Spotted Tail and Red Cloud , the
Indians haul-all of their own supplies
from the stoamtnat landings on the
river. They hive thereby become ac
customed to the proper handling of
wagons and harness , sad industrious
and export teamsters When
they first started out they
couldn't comprehend the lock or brake ,
and would start the heavy wagon
down hill unlocked1 going with such
speed that they could not check until
they were perhaps over the top of an
other hill. Allttlo care and attention
remedied this , however.
"V7ell , you think prospects arc
brighter for the Red Man's future ? "
"It Is-my opinion that the .much
vexed Indian quettion is rapidly approaching -
preaching a solution , which will be
atisfactory io jjverybody. Senator
Saunders bill to grant lands In sever-
ty and the proposition to abolish the
tribal relations and extend the right
of citizenship to the Indiana are all of
genuine merit and will gradually bring
about a-eoodition < of afF&irs that will
give justice to the Indians , gratifica
tion to the intelligent portion of our
people and redound to the credit of
the administration from which so de
sirable a reform has come. "

STOBM NOTES.
Getting Streets , Railroads
and Telegraph Lines in
Shape ,
The Worst Storm Since 1850 ,
The weather cleared up unexpected
ly last night and the snow and slush
was yesterday 'frozen bard enough
to bear teams , in many places. It did
not thaw a great deal during the fore
noon and as the force employed by
the city to go to work at the gutters
and others hired by private parties
got to work early , we have heard
of no particular trouble from water.
Among others who suffered Sunday or
Monday were Gatz & Freeman about
81,200 ; Hospe , 8200 to 8300 ; Wlllia
Yatea , about $50 ; A. Polack , § 200.
Of course there ware numbers of
others damaged more or less by being
flooded , but wo have not learned
their names. The flood that dam
aged Yatea' and Hospo'a
stocks was not caused by
a defective roof as stated ,
but from the enow being piled
up until it ran ever flushing. Many
tin roofs were damaged by too free a
use of pick and shovel in cleaning
them off.
The street railway is in a bad fix ,
and looks as if cars would not get to
running for a week unless A sudden
thaw ehould come to the relief
of the force now employed on it.
The ice is packed down solid between
the rails and in places the track is sub
merged. In tha meantime the busses
and carriages are reaping a good
harvest.
Telegraphic communication with the
east is still interrupted , but trains on
all the roads east and west nro mak-
ingjschedulo time. The Union Pacific
Transfer hotel was crowded all day
yesterday with belated passengers ,
for the street cars over there were
abandoned like ours , and those who
wanted to get up town had to walk.
An avalanche of snow from the roof
of the hotel smashed in one of the
Iron sheds adjoining the house.
Yesterday was a great day for shoe
men and the sales cleared out the
stock of several. They are the only
men who reaped a practical , immedi
ate benefit from the storm. The
physicians may make something out of
It yet , and the undertakers.
HEAKD FEOM.
Wo thought the" oldest inhabitant
had gone away forever with the storm
but he turns up in Council Bluffs and
talks thus in The Nonpareil :
The storm of Saturday and Sunday
last has probably never before been
equalled in this part of Iowa , or at
least nothing of its peculiar nature Is
remembered by "ye old inhabitant. "
The only approach to it was the storms
of 1857-8 when the weather
- , was ex
tremely cold and the snow almost
continuous for a week or moro nt a
time , and the weather never
moderated sufficiently to melt one
snow before another came. In April ,
1858 , as wo are reminded by Col.
Cochran and others , the snow lay on
the ground in Council Bluffs to a
depth of nearly fifteen inches. Oil or
about the 27th of April of that spring
a terrible rainstorm put in an appear
ance , and a mighty flood was the
result. The rain washed the snow
from the hillsides to the bottoms , and
the streets and lower portion of the
city were completely aud effectually
inundated. That spring the first visi
tation of youthful grasshoppers was
made to this part of the west. The
'hoppers were thicker than flies
around the bunghole of a sugar
barrtl , and It is said
there were "twenty-five youthful
'hoppers to every blade of grass In the
country , or to every blade expected.1
The great flood of April had a disas
trous effect on the 'hoppers , as they
were completely drowned out and
washed away. In this way the storm
proved a providential visitation , but
it yet remains to be seen what the
benefit of the present snow and water
will prove to bo. Certain it Is , that
the matter looks serious enough , and
a flood of great magnitude will cer
tainly visit us sooner or later. If the
snow and sleet , now on the ground ,
freeze up , the flood will come when it
melts , and if it goes away aa fast with
in the coming few days as it did yes
terday , we will have an overflow at
once.
