Al- lison, in his buckskin clothes and his old white,lop rim hat, is one of the most intgresting men I evermet. I usually find that the men who have made national reputations by their ex- ploits on the plains and among tne In- dians dwindle and shrivel and become stupidly uninteresting when one comes near enough to them to see what they really ave. But this is not true of Mr. Alli The more one soes of him the nwmnfing one becomes in him, 1t was he, who, single handed, brought about the surrender of Sitiing Bull after the massacre of General Custer and his troops, and the story of this ex- ploit gave Mr. Allison a national fame; but, after all, that was only one of his exploits and by no means the most in- teresting of them. wish everybody in this land—ev body whose head has been filled wuh false pictures of Indian fighting and of life on the great American plains—I wish every such boy could hear Mr. Al- son talk for an hour. He is far more entertaining than the dime novelist, and, what is better, he makes true pic- tures, which, while they entertain, are full of goad menning and profit to those who hear them. He is an ideal “*Indian fighter,” but is vory far from that par- ticular and false ideal set up by the cheap penny-a-liners who never saw a plain or an Tndian, but who write miser- ablo stufl about thom both by the mile. It is n gentleman who inhabits those buckskin clothes of Edward H. Allison —an intelligent, a hearty,a true gentle- man and a scholar. Mr. Allison was born in Michigan 1n 1847, and spent the first fifteen years of hislife on his father’s farm. Then, though yet so young, he passed the ex- amination, standing as high 99, and was matriculated at Ann Arbor university. Soon after this he enlisted for the war, out of which he came after three yeurs, at the age of nineteen, fitted, as the army is likely to fit one of his years, for something more active and exciting than the old farm life in Michigan, In 1866 he accordingly went west and be- came a government-dispatch bearer. Ever since that time he has lived upon the plain, suffered its hardships, learned its lessons, and now he has come out, after twenty-two years of it, an in- u,lh-vun. gentleman with a bre ond untler- numdmg not only of Indians, their lan- guuges, and their Lhmuwlc tics, but of *'the Indian question” in all its phases, from that viewed by the states- man to that imagined by the ambitious { ungster who sticks his mother’s bread- knife in his belt and starts to extermin- ate the race of red men. Mr. Allison has not merely learned the Sioux language; he has mastered it. He speaks a dozen or more lingos, or dialects, but he says the Sioux is the language of the American Indian, and that of the 300,000 in all the country the Sioux mmon comprises one-: mxth. “There is,” said he, "un]{ one language that is employed by all our western Indians. It is the sign language.” Then Mr. Allison gave me an exumpk. of this ‘‘tongue:” An Indianis hungry! He motions with one hand towards his open mouth, as if he were throwing food into it, and thcn makes a negative ges- ture away from his mouth. The trans: lation literally is: *‘I have eaten—not.” Of course if he has not eaten he is hungry. If he is very hungry the gesture toward his mouth is greater in extent—that is, he motions toward his mouth and continues the gesture clear along down to his stomach—he is em{wy all the way down, so to speak. Now he wuntsmsxs he has looked for game! This is said by pointing his two first fingers away from his eyes, the back of his hand being in front of his nose. If he wants to say he had to look long for the game he points in several direc- tions and lor some time with these “‘finger-eyes.” To tell of mounting his pony and riding away he straddles two fingers of one hand over the forefinger of the other, and makes a galloping motion with the hands. To say that he levels his gun at the game he holds his arms as if holding a gun. . Slapping one palm upon the other means that he fired the gun and slapping the back of one hand on the palm of the other means that he brought down the game. If he missed the mark he makes the same gesture, but adds the negative flourish to it—he ‘‘brought down the game— not.” So he goes through everything he has to say, and Mr. Allison tells me that every Indian in the west knows this language perfectly. Mr. Allison heid the position of dis- tch ben.rer for some time and then came a mail carrier, riding on horse- back and taking the mails on a pack mule from old Fort Rice, in Dakota, for hundreds of miles in all directions, through a country swarming with hos- tile Indians. e always h: with him an escort of Indians friendly to him, but._they had many battles with the hostiles during the t'hrw uaru he cou- tinued in this service. was hard to go more than three e ndiad yards out- side the fort palisade,” said he, “wn.h- out having an arrow shot at you.” By the way,” he continued,*‘I should like to say'a word for the Indians who were especmll{llrmndly in those days, such as Cold Hand, Goose, Good Tone Metal, Butcher (or ‘Cut-'Em-Up,’ as some called him, because he carved his enemies to pieces). These Indians and some others were friendly to the govern- ment through thick and thin, and were wounded in many desperm.e battles the had for the government’s sake. I thin they deserve to be pensioned. But it has always so happened that the gov- ernment has done the most for the tile Indians, while the friendly ones have been lett to look out for them- selves.” In 1872 Mr. Allison was in Charles Mix county, in southern Dakota, where he had embarked in business for him- self, and where he was chairman of the first elocted county board. He speaks vary bitterly of the treatment he and the other pioneers of that county re- ceived at the hands of the administra- tion at Washington. Just before Lhu county was disorgan- ized Mr. Allison waselected to represent itin the Dakota legislature, but he never did so, He had his certificate of election, but he had no county to repre- sent, .
