MINNESOTAS primitive the Sioux, are now almost as rare within the state borders as the caribou. This is ndt wholly the white mans fault. Before the white man came as a settler, the Chippe-wa- s from the east had driven the Sioux out of the northern part of the state, anciently their winter home, to the south. Thus, when the white man came, he found the Chippe-wa- s established in the north, living in hemispherical birch-bar- k huts, traveling in canoes; and, in the south, the Sioux, living in conical buffa-lo-hid- e tepees, and riding on the woods Indian and the While the lumbeIndian. prairie rmans ax advanced into the domain of the one, the farmers plow advanced into that of the other. The plow proved to be the deadlier weapon. The Sioux resented this extremely. Besides, they were treated by the white man with little tact and less frankness or so they certainly felt. This complex resentment boiled up into the Sioux outbreak, bloodiest Indian rebellion in the history of the republic. The panic which spread among the scattered settlers can be imagined. The plows that had begun to cut into the grove-dotte- d edges of the South were abandoned., But, fortunately the Sioux got licked at last, . and as a reward for what they had done they were expelled forever. ponies ABOVE At Minnesotas famous Itasca park a Chippewa chief displays his tribal wares to tourists.

Bygone Glory The first cattle in all the Northwest grazed around that bay; 70 canoes, of length, formed the yearly quota of the boat builders. And up the portage itself, to the calm upper waters of the Pigeon river, which in turn gave access to the whole interior, of a continent, went supplies and trinkets.

Chippewas Diplomatic Meanwhile, the Chippewas tried the opposite tactics, an attempt to reason with the Great White Father as he manifested himself to them in the guise of congressional committees, land agents, and so on. The results of this patient policy, though not so prompt and decisive as that brought about by the bold play of the Sioux, have been almost equally disappointing. The scandals of the land grab at White Earth, for example, which was to have been an Indian Utopia, make any sensitive Minnesotan blush. However, the Chippewas survive. A day of more intelligent policy seems to be dawning. Their Pigeon River home is enviable for its natural beauty. In the north Chippewa names abound. Even the mighty Mississippi, Great River, was given its name by these canoe paddlers at its source. Indian practicality is expressed in such names as MahnoWild Rice, Menahga, men, Blueberry, or Watab, Tamarack Root Fibers, used in sewing birch bark together for hut or canoe. Now for the white man, that romantic adventurer, trader, builder, or whatever you choose to call him. He came first as a trader in furs and was a Frenchman. He got on well with the Indians, in fact, married among them. Like them, he interfered little with natural geogra-- , phy, merely leaving behind a few names such as Mille Lacs, St. Croix, or Lac qui Parle.
