INDIAN NAME FOR
WALLA WALLA FOUND
In the opinion of Major Lee Moor
house, the real Indian name for Walla
Walla Is "Paska," vhich means the
"land of the sunflowers," and he be
lieves lie has sufficient evidence to
establish the fact that the Garden
City has been existing under a false
name for these many years.
His discovery resulted from a depo
sition he was taking Saturday from
Phiip Mlnthnrn (Hash Kash). aged
nn of former Chief Yellow Hawk,
which deposition will be presented to
congress in an attempt to secure sat
isfaction of the claims which the In
dians have had against the covern-
mcnt for meat supplies furnished to1
troops during the Indian war of!S
l(v5. In describing the location of !
the fronts at the time, the old red- '
man spoke of "Paska." which, upon '
Interrogation, he explained was the j
city now called "Walla Walla," and j
which the Indians always called j
"Paska," the land of the sunflowers.

Delegates of Three Indian
Tribes to Attend National
Pow-Wow.

Ry Promised Brotherhood.
Members of the Umatilla, Cayus
and Walla Walla tribes on the local
reservation have, during the past few
days, been circulating a subscription
paper for the purpose of raising
fund to defray the expenses of a
delegate from each tribe to the con
ference to be held In Washington, D.
C. on December 4, for the purpose of
organizing all of the tribes in the
United States into the Brotherhood
of North American Indians. After
the funds have been guaranteed an
election will be held for the choice of
the three representatives and It is
expected this will be done before the
nd of the week.
Th movement for the formation of
the confederation is widespread and
Is proving very popular among the
native Americans. It was started
and is being promoted by Richard C.
Adams, a Deleware Indian and a part
ner in the law business with Attorney
ITarve II. Phillips of Spokane, and
through the latter Major Lee Moor
house of this city has been asked to
ass'pt the local Indians in selecting
delegates to the meeting.
Purpose Is Explained.
The purpose of the brotherhood as
explained in a letter which Major
Moorhouse has from Adams, is to se
cure protection of the rights of the
rights of the redmen and a recogni
tion of the claims which they have.
"There is at the present time due to
the various tribe- of Indians," he
writes "upwards of three mil
lion dollars; there are in the nation
al banks to the credit of individual
Trd'ans many millions of dollar
more; (here is at the pre-, -it time
ovrr three hunred thousand undeliv
ered patents and many thousand un
settled claims of individual Indians.
All of these things should readily be
adjusted by the organization of the
brotherhood."
Clear National Conscience.
"If we succeed." he concludes Irs
b'iter. "we will be Instrumental in
clearing u; the conscience of a na
tion which has posed as one of the
highest in civilization and the lover
of liberty and justice; but on whose
h in ts there :s a stain of the most
dertaking of building the Panama ca
nal at the cost of many hundred mil
lion dollars, and In many other things
of great expense to the people, hut
which has not paid its honest and
Just obligations to the Indians; not
even the small amounts It promised
to pay them and which has, in many
cases, forced treaties or agreements
on the Indians for an inadequate and
nltleant con-ideration. These
thlnas could he readily adjusted and
t'-e vcopl(t will be shown things in a
different light if only we do our part "
