We Gave Up Some Of Our Country

All Men Were Made By The Great Spirit Chief. They Are All Brothers.

The Great Spirit Chief Who Rules Above All Will Smile Upon This Land... And This Time The Indian Race Is Waiting And Praying.

Suppose A White Man Should Come To Me And Say, "joseph, I Like Your Horses. I Want To Buy Them." I Say To Him, "no, My Horses Suit Me; I Will Not Sell Them." Then He Goes To My Neighbor And Says To Him, "joseph Has Some Good Horses. I Want To Buy Them, But He Refuses To Sell." My Neighbor Answers, "pay Me The Money And I Will Sell You Joseph's Horses." The White Man Returns To Me And Says, "joseph, I Have Bought Your Horses And You Must Let Me Have Them." If We Sold Our Lands To The Government, This Is The Way They Bought Them.

The Indian Race Is Waiting And Praying.

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.
