I Believe Much Trouble Would Be Saved

I Am Ready To Talk Today. I Have Been In A Great Many Councils, But I Am No Wiser. We Are All Sprung From A Woman, Although We Are Unlike In Many Things. We Can Not Be Made Over Again. You Are As You Were Made, And As You Were Made You Can Remain. We Are Just As We Were Made By The Great Spirit, And You Can Not Change Us ; Then Why Should Children Of One Mother And One Father Quarrel ? — Why Should One Try To Cheat The Other ? I Do Not Believe That The Great Spirit Chief Gave One Kind Of Men The Right To Tell Another Kind Of Men What They Must Do.

I Saw That The War Could Not Be Prevented. The Time Had Passed.

Governor Isaac Stevens Of The Washington Territory Said There Were A Great Many White People In Our Country, And Many More Would Come; That He Wanted The Land Marked Out So That The Indians And The White Man Could Be Separated.

We Soon Found That The White Men Were Growing Rich Very Fast, And Were Greedy.

All People Should Be Treated The Same Way On Earth.
