Indians of North America -- Washington (State); Yakama Indians -- Government relations
It should redound to the credit of the Yakima Indians who refused to
accompany the Pack Train under the supervision of Head Packer Anderson,
who served the Mountaineer Club on its outing in the Olympic Mountains
this season. Anderson packed for the Club in its tour of Tahoma last
year, with three or four Yakimas and their horses. The Indians, usually
considered hard horse masters, got their fill of Anderson's mode of
over-loading and driving the long stretches of steep and rugged trail,
ofttimes occupying seventeen hours without food or rest. The horses,
with raw and sore backs, staggered under stacks of dunnage, leaving the
trail red with blood from their worn and unshod feet. The personal
effects of preachers, professors and teachers were included in those
packs. On a previous outing of the Club, Anderson's packers mutinied.
The Mountaineers are winning an unenviable reputation for this brutal
treatment of its yearly pack-train. What is the Washington State Humane
Bureau for that it does not interfere with this lawless disregard of the
humane laws?
