W~k e P A CHAT WITH THE CHIEF. The First and Only Interview With Sitting Bull Enjoyed. His Skill as a Hunter and Bravery as a ‘Warrior Whch Made Him a Chief. Blessed With Two Living Wives and Unable to De- cide Which Le Loves. He Modestly Asoribes His Success in the Caster Fight to the Great Spirit St. Paul Pioneor- Prest PERSONAL APPEARANCE OF SITFING BULL, Fort Yares, D, 1., Aug. 2.—The ¢, to any one who has evel Sioux chictis strikingly charac The high, pointed, narrow forehead and the correspondingly attenuated chin: the prominent cheek bones and pronounced nose; the intent, " wide- open eyes, and, more than all, the Mephistophelian mouth, with its sar- donie, sneering expression, conyeying so much of unbelief and distrist, all go to make the tout ensemble of the intclligent, wily, scornful, a\lspiv‘inus savage, whose barbarism has receiy only a lacquer of repression with ci ized whites. The old man is poor— that can be seen at a glance, Upon his head are no waving plumes, save the indispensable coup feather, which droops as if in sympathy with the owner's fallen fortunes, Instead of the fur-trimmed braids and gaudy bead and head-dress of the agency Indian is the simple handkerchief— safely may it be assumed it is grimed with filth and age —knotted carelessly behind, The spectacles may strike some observers as odd, but many Indians wear them as protection .against snow-blindness in winter and the alkali dust of the plains in summer, and Sitting Bull has reached the age when his eyes are ‘‘purging thick amber and plum-tree gum,” and need the covering the lenses afford. As before stated, he is swarthy of com- plexion—remarkably dark, in fact— and “‘age has withered him,” while lack of food and continual troubles crowded into his last few years have given vigor to ‘‘decay’s effacing fin- gers.” From coup feather to mocca- sin the thorough savage has none the less made a mark upon his time which many of greater note through gencral christendom have not effected. THE INTERVIEW. The conversation, omitting the de- lays, side remarks and questions to which no response would be given, ran as follows: Teterprete! and when? -Sitting Bull: I don’t know where 1 wasborn and cannot remember. I know that I was born, though, or would not be here, I was born of a woman, I know this i a fact, because T exist. Sitting Bull here held a long con versation with his uncle, Chief Four- Horns, and after pointing at different for some time, said: T was born near old Fort George,on Willow creek, below the mouth of the Cheyenne river. I am forty-four years old as near as I can tell; we count our years from the moons between great events, The event from which I date my birth is the year in which Thunder Hawks was born. I amas old as he. T have always been running -around Indians that remain on the same hunt- ing grounds all the time can remem- ber years better. Reporter: How many wives and children have you? Sitting Bull (running over his fin- gers and then with thumb and fore- finger of one hand pinching and holding together two fingers of his other hand): I have nine children and two living wives, and one wife that hus gone to the great spirit. T have two pairs of twins. Lieut. Dowdy: Tell Sitting Bull he is more fortunate thun I am, I can't get one wife, Where were you born At this interruption Sitting Bull laughed. Reporter: Which is your favorite wife? Sitting Bull: T think as much of one as of the other, If I did not T would not keep them, I think if I had a white wife I would think more of her than the other two, Reporter: What are the names of your wiyes? * Sitting Bull: Raising the side of the tent and calling a squaw to him cvidently he asked her, *‘Was-Seen- By-The-Nation is the name of the old one, The One-that-Had-Four-Robes is the name of the other.” Reporter: Are you a chief by in- hentance, and, if not, what deeds of bravery gave you the title? Sitting Bull: My father and two uncles were chiefs. My father's name was The-Jumping-Bull. My uncle that is in the tepee is called Four- Horns, and my other uncle was called Hunting-His-Lodge. My father was a very rich man, and owned a great many ponies in four colors; 1n po- nies he took much pride. They were roan, white and grey. He had great numbers, and I, never wanted for a horse to ride. When I was ten years old I was famous for a hunter. My «Bn:c'mltx was buffalo calves. [Here ull indicated with his arms how he killed the buffalo.] T jgave the calves I killed to the poor that had nohorses. I was considered a good man, [Here Bull n counted on his fingers and jl: i My father died 21 year ago. for four years after { was ten years old I killed buffalo and fed my people, and thus became one of the fathers of the tribe. At the age of fourteen I killed an enemy and began to MAKE MYSELF GREAT IN BATTLE, And became a chief. Before this, from ten to fourteen, my people had named me The-Sacred-Standshoty. After killing an enemy they called me Ta-Tan-Ka-I-You-Tan-Ka, or Sitting Bull. An Indian may be an inherit- ed chief, but he has to make himself a chief by his bravery, [Although several efforts were made and much tact used, Sitting Bull would not speak of his life beyond the age of fourteen. ] | | do you think the greatest and bravest [of the nail of another forefinger). | chief of the Sioux nation We have all along fought hard.

Sitting Bull: I have never talked about these things toa nowspaper man before. None of them ever be. fore paid me money. My words are WOl dollars. l{ the great father gives me a reservation, I do not want to be confined to any part of it. I want no restraint. I will keep on the reservation, but want to go where I please. I don't want a white man over me, Idon’t want an agent. I want to have the white man with me but not to be my chief. I ask this because I want to do right by my peo- pleand can't trust any one else to trade with them or talk with them. I want interpreters to talk to the white man for me and transact my business, but I want it to be seen and know that I have my rights, I want my people to have light wagons to work with. They do not know how to handle heavy wagons with NO HATRED AND JEALOUSY In his heart when speaking of other chiefs, *‘What induced you tosurrender,and what wrongs have you suffercd at the hands of the government? These and other questions were put 1n all sorts of ways, and at first the chief refused to answer them, saying this was an ordinary talk, and these were questions of great importance to him, After hesitating a long time, and be- ing assured by the interpreter that it was best to speak, he finally spoke in an excited and rambling way as fol- lows: Already have I told my reasons. 1 was not raised to be an enemy of the white man. The pale faces had things that we needed in order to hunt. We needed ammunition. Our interests were in peace. I never sold that much land. Here Sitting Bull picked up with his thumb and forefinger a little of the pulverized dirt in the tent, and holding it up let itfall and blow away. ] 1 naver made or sold a treaty with the United States. 1came in o claim my rights and the rights of my people I was driven in force from my land, and I now come back to claim it for my people, I never made war on the United States government. T never stood in the white man’s country. I never committed any depredations in the white man's country. I never made the white man's heart bleed, The white man came on to my land and followed me. The white men made me fight formy hunting grounds. The white man made e kill him or he would kill my friends, my women and my children. Reporter: The white man admires your conduct in battle. You showed yourself to be a great chief in THE CUSTER FIGHT. Sitting Bull: There was a great spirit who guided and controlled that battle. Icould do nothing. I was sustained by the great mysterious one. [Here Sitting Bull pointed upward with his forefinger.] Reporter: You conducted the bat- tle well; so weil that many thought that you were not an Indian, but that you were a white man and knew the white man's ways. Sitting Bull (pointed to his wrist): T was not a white man, for the great spirit did not make me a white skin. 1 did not fight the white man’s back. T came out and met him on the grass, When I say Running Antelopeis a fool, I mean he made treatics and al- lowed the white man_to come in and occupy eur land. Kver since that time there has becn teouble. I do not want aid or assistance from the white or anyone else. I want them to stay from my country and allow me to hunt on my own land. T want no bloed spilled in my land except the blood of the buffalo. I want to hunt and trade for many moons. You have meto come in. I wanted the white man to provide for me for several years if 1 came in. You have never offered me any inducements to come Idid not want to come. My friends that come got soap and ax handles, but enough to eat. I have come in and want the white man to allow me to hunt in my own country. This is the way I live, I want to keep my ponies. I can’t hunt with- out ponies, The buftalo runs fast. The white man wanted me to give up everytning. Reporter: expect from the government? satisfied what shall you do? Sitting Bull: T expected to stay but a few days at Buford, When T came in I did not surrender. I want the goverument to let me occupy the Little Missouri country, There is plenty of game there. T have dama- ges against the government for hold- ing my land and game. I want the Great Father to PAY ME FOR IT, The reporter here asked the inter- proter to get an idea of what Sitting What treatment do you If not ull meant by the Tattle Missouri country. Sitting Bull: My hunting-ground is from the bad lands to the end of the Little Missouri,, and T want it extended down where some of my people are so that I can trade. Beporter: What do Chief Gall and Kunning Auntelope say about their treatment here! Sitting Bull: ~ Antelope is a fool. 1 have seen Gall. He caul' t tell me any- thing. He is not a chief of my peo- le. Reporter: Don’t you think the Indians here are treated welll SittingBull: I haye not had a chance to talk with them. They are waiting for me to speak. They want to give me a feast and hold a coun f’am not jealous of them. 1 don't know whether we will hold” a council or not. Reporter: Tell us all about the Custer battle. How did it happen? Did you direct the main forcest Sitting Bull (after a long silence): 1 am not afrad to talk about that. It all happened; it is past and gone. do not lie, but do not want to talk about it. Low Dog says I cannot fight until some one lends me a heart, Gall sg 1y heart is no bigger than Reporter; Beside yourself, whom. 2 | want, cattle. We want light wagons and ponies. I don't wan't to give up game as long as there is any gcame. T will be half civilized till the game is gone. Then T will be all civilized. I want peace and no trouble. 1 want to raise my children, that they may have peace and prosperity. I like the way the white brother keeps his children. Miss Fannie Culbertson of Polar river was the first person I shook hands with when I came over the line. My daughter came to see me last night. We both cried. 1 was happy to see her. The soldiers would not let her come into my camp at first, She came here before I did, and I listened a long time to hear from her, and for the winds to tell me how she was treated. T did not hear. I came down to see her. She seems to be doing well, but 1 saw she had no_re- spect from the whites. The soldiers would not spread down a blanket for her to walk into my camp. is well dressed, but says her relatives at the agency gave her her clothes, THE SHOOTING OF TILIZ PRESIDENT, Reporter (to the interperct Ex- n to Sitiing Bull how President arfield has been shot by a coward, and ask him what he thinks about the act; also what the Indians would do if a coward should shoot their chicf? Sitting Bull: Tt was a cowardly act, 1f the warrior would haye been there he would have gone to the great futh- er’s face and looked him in the cyes and then shot him. T heard when way up there about the great father| being shot, but had no one to tell me all about it. I don’t know whether the warrior was wise in doing it or not. He might have shot the great father because he was not treating the Indians right., If that was so it was not a bad thing to do. If a coward should shoot one of our chiefs with- out looking him in the eyes our friends would go and kill him. If he was a vich coward he could pay tho damages in many ponies and we would let him leave. Reporter: How many scalps have you taken, not counting those taken by your people, which are always credited to the chiefs? Sitting Bull (spreading out both hands and putting his two thumbs to- gether, and pointing to his jeints and thinkig for fully five minutes): have killed sixteen enemies, 1 ne killed a white man, T have mude rails upon the Crees, Gross Ventres and Northern Blackfeet, and stolen Liovses twenty-two times. I mnever swle horses from the whites. Reporter: The president takes The Pioneer Press, He will reald your words, What message do you wish to send him! Sitting Bull: I have told you all I 1 would like to have the Great Father listen to what I have said and help me accomplish what T ask, Kidney Complaint Cured. B. Turner, Rochester, N.
