One of tbe great annual events in the lives of tbe Indians on the Umatil la reservation was scheduled to take place yesterday, , when tbe work of rounding up between 8,000 and 4,000 pouies was started. Aooording to Major Moorbonse, of tbe Pendleton Tribune, the Indians have about 5,000 head of ponies al together, and the annual roundup of tbe animals is about tbe keenest sport afforded tbe ever restless red man in this day of civilization. It could not be learned whether or not the full number would be corralled at the end of the big drive whioh began yester day, but it supposed that the major portion of the 5,000 will be inoluded. The corrals into which the horses will be driven are located on the head waters of the McKay and are about twenty-five miles from Pendleton. In spite of the great distance quite a num ber of the people have signified tneir intentions of going out to witness the fun. It is peculiarly fitting just at this time when the big Spokane and Port land naners are exploiting the drive which is now taking plaoe in Eastern Washington as tbe last of its kindtbat will ever be held in the West, that the Umatilla Indians should begin on their annual roundup, which contains nearly as many horses in the drive which is being heralded around the world.
