OLD RECORDS SHOW
Nez Perce Were Militia in
Territorial Days.
Washington. Romantic stories hid
den in 05 year old muster rolls of the
early Nation; I Guard of tlie state of
Washington were uncovered recently
at I lie adjutant general's office at ('uiiqi
Lewis when .Mrs. Lydia Taylor < *r-
strand of Bridal Veil. Ore., wrote to
Brig. Gen. Maurice Thompson, the ad
jut ant general, in search of informa-
tion relative to the service of her fa-
ther in the Washington-* >r<*goii Indian
wars of 1S55. Lieut. Ralph II Wind
sor. reporting the incidents to tit**
United States army Recruiting News,
says that the muster rolls showed that
one company of tin* Washington Terri-
tory volunteers who were brought into
service by tlie government to assist in
subduing the warring tribes was com-
posed wholly of friendly Nez I’erce
Indians. Such names as Seven Days
Whipping, Rod Grizzly, Duck and Fish
Bone appeared on the rolls of this
queer organization. The captain was
called a war chief and answered to
the name of Spotted Eagle. Lieuten-
ant \Vindsor says:
No Sergeants or Privates.
"There were rm sergeants or pri-
vates in this outfit, and outside of the
one head the other fighters were
merely known as warriors. What
stern discipline was used by the war
chief of tiiis company of <i!l picked
fighters that needed no lieutenants or
noncommissioned officers? It is not
hard, even in tiiis civilized age, to
Imagine the red warrior of half it cen-
tury ago, silently slipping through the
forests that grew where cities now
stand, stalking his red brother who
had questioned tin* authority of the
White Father In Washington. Tlie
budge of authority of the stalker and
Ids uniform to show tie was a United
States soldier was an army rille ami
a belt of ammunition But for this
rifle, and tin* color of his paint, tlie
line of Oemureutinn was slight.
"The Washington-Oregon Indian
wars of 1 s',', hurst into flame in the
fall of Ik", with widespread massacres
by the Walla Walla. Yakima, Umatilla.
Caytisc arid I'alusa tribes, who were
dissatisfied with various land treaties
which were consummated by tlie In
diitn agents of the territories. The
fir»t alarming indication that war was
Imminent was tin* massacre of settlers
who were camped on tin* site of the
present day Auburn.
“Two expeditions into the country
‘east of ibe Dasendos resulted In the
deeisi <■ defeat of one and the hasty
retreat of tlie other. The commanding
general of the I'ueiti, department at
Hint linn* was Ma.l, Gen John U. Wool,
who personally disliked Governor Ste-
vens of Washington t.nd refused ntiv
federal troops other titan the garri-
sons stationed in the territory

By Dooct.ibcr ten companies of volun-

for arms and ammunition was mtI-
