1 THURSDAY, MARCH 10, 1921 INDIAN PLEADS FOR FISH RIGHTS Aged Chief Recalls Treaty Made With the Governor of Wash­ ington in 1855. CHEERED BY LEGISLATORS Protest« Against Disregard of Pact Which Recognized Right of Indi- to Take Salmon In the Yakima River. years Olympia, Wash.—Slxfy-slx ago In the spray of Prosser falls, un Indian chief and the then governor of Washington respectively pledged their people to abide by a pact. This pact recognized the perpetual rights of the Yakima tribe to lisli where from time immemorial the red man had taken his salmon. The Indiana had been reluctant, say­ ing to Oov. Isaac I. Stevens, "but when you are dead, who will bear witness to your promises?" And the governor had replied: “I pledge the Americans to keep the promises ns long as the mountains stnnd. as long as the sun shines and the river runs I” Calling upon these mute witnesses and summoning the spirits of the dead, Chief Menlnock of the Yuklmns has just made a speech of protest at the whites’ violation of that treaty, In the state senate chamber here, which the most dramatic recorded In annals. Boy When Treaty Wai Made. And that speech, which would credit to the historic orators of his race, with Ils sharp challenge to the white umn's honor, bids fair to correct a wrong the Indians hud hitherto borne In silence. Menlnock was u boy when the trea­ ty wns made. He had stood attentive­ ly beside hls father on Ihut occasion. Today he is 80, and wrinkled. Much water has run over Prosser fulls since then, and the salmon have dwindled. Also, the whites have enacted fish und game laws which conflict so with the trenty of 1855 that Menlnock was recently arrested for taking salmon from the Yakima river. A few days ago Chief Menlnock and other tribul leaders, together with their wives nnd children, appeared nt the Imposing state lodge of the white men at the state cnpltol here to pro test. In their feathered and bende<| trappings and scarlet blankets they projected a vivid picture of the past Into the busy legislative councils as the chief rose to sjieak 111 dignified protest. Calls Upon Spirits. "My heart Is glad today,'' said Menl- nock with solemn mien and sonorous tongue, "because you have said you would listen to what we have to say.
