Himmaton-Yalatkit, war chief of the Chopunaish nation. History knows him as Chief Joseph of the Nez Perces. . ‘The Chopunnish were nicknamed Nez Perces (pierced noses) TE fs the story of an Indian Napoleon. His people called him | by some early French pioneers because of their custom of wearing nose rings. They were probably the best, most intelligent body of Indians in America. Under their leader, christened “Joseph” at a local mission, they lived contentedly on a northwestern reservation bigger than New York State. Then the old tragic story of settler-and-savage was re-told. The white men, drifting wéstward, invaded the reservation, found it rich and full of promise for them and forthwith pulled wires at Washington to have the Indians kicled out. ~ As usual, the plan was successful. The Nez Perces were ordered te move to smaller, much less desirable reservation far away from the homes they loved. “ho add to their grievances they were abused, robbed right and left and treated like dogs by many of the white settlers. ° ‘The Nez Perces were furious. They clam- ored to go on the warpath; to fight to the death for their homes and their rights. Wise old Chie? Joseph, however, held them in check. His power over them was absolute—so long as he was on hand to enforce that power. f Gen. O. O. Howard was sent to persuade the Chief to consent to the change of reservations. Joseph_lidtened gravely to the General's spurious arguments, hearing him to the end. Then, when Howard paused, the Chief inquired: “If we consent to be herded on that little strip of land what will the Great Father at Washington give us? Will he give us schools, teachers, houses, gardens, farm tools?” “Yes, yes!” replied the delighted General, “you shall have all of those things.” “Well,” drawied the Chief. ‘Those are just the things we do not want. ‘The earth is our dear mother. Do you think we wish fo break it and dig it up?” ‘At this crisis of the trouble, in 1877, Chief Joseph's wife, who was far away upon a visit, fely Gangerously 111. The Chief dropped everything and hastened to her. ‘While Joseph was away two of his braves chanced to fall into talk with two farmers. One of the Indians Jaid his hand, inquisitively, on the brand new rifle of one of the farmers. The other farmer, perhape mistaking the meaning of the gesture, shot the Indian dead. That started the outbreak. Joseph was not there to calm hie tribesmen and to demand regular justice against the murderer. His followers took the law into their own hands, Border warfare, with all its horrors of burning, theft and massacre, burst forth. » ‘The Chief, hurrying to the scene of strife, found himself too fate to the tide of slaughter. Only one course, as he saw it, remained for him to follow. He threw in his lot with his people. The great Nez Perces war was on! For montha the confilct blazed along the frontier.

In front of him, barring his way, was a strong force under Gen. Miles. Clese behind him a second body of troops under Gen. Howard. Col. Sturgis’s soldiers were at his flank. He was completely hemmed in.
