  • Good Words: Chief Joseph and the Production of Indian Speech(Es), Texts, and Subjects
    Good Words: Chief Joseph and the Production of Indian Speech(es), Texts, and Subjects Thomas H. Guthrie, Guilford College Abstract. Chief Joseph, who gained fame during the Nez Perce War of 1877, is one of the best-known Indian orators in American history. Yet the two principal texts attributed to him were produced under questionable circumstances, and it is unclear to what extent they represent anything he ever said. This essay examines the publication history of these texts and then addresses two questions about the treatment of Indian oratory in the nineteenth century. First, given their uncertain provenance, how and why did these texts become so popular and come to rep- resent Indian eloquence and an authentic Native American voice? Second, what was the political significance of Indian speech and texts of Indian oratory in the confrontation between Euro-Americans and Indians over land? I argue that the production and interpretation of Indian speech facilitated political subjugation by figuring Indians as particular kinds of subjects and positioning them in a broader narrative about the West. The discursive and political dimensions of the encounter were inseparable, as Indian “eloquence” laid the way for Indian defeat. I conclude by advocating a disruptive reading of Indian oratory that rejects the belief that a real Indian subject lies behind these texts in any straightforward sense. To make this argument, I draw on linguistic anthropology and critical theory, analyzing firsthand accounts, newspaper reports, and descriptions of Indian speech and Nez Perce history. In 1879 the North American Review published an article titled “An Indian’s View of Indian Affairs” that was attributed to Chief Joseph, or In-mut- too-yah-lat-lat (ca.

  • The Missouri Is America's Longest River
    The Missouri is America’s Longest River This is Shirley Griffith. And this is Steve Ember with the VOA Special English program, EXPLORATIONS. Today, we tell about another important American river, the Missouri. It is the longest river in the United States. The first American Indians to live along the Missouri River called the river the Mine Sose. It means the muddy river. Even today, the Missouri is called "the Big Muddy" by many people. This is because it carries huge amounts of dirt from the land through which it flows. The dirt makes the river a brown color for much of its length. The Missouri begins in the Rocky Mountains of North America. It is formed by three rivers that come together in what is the north central state of Montana. The three rivers are the Jefferson, Madison, and Gallatin Rivers. They become the Missouri River in the southwestern part of Montana, more than one thousand two hundred meters above sea level. The river is clear and flows rapidly as it begins its travels east and south. It moves more slowly as it flows down to the waters of the Mississippi River, about ten kilometers north of the modern-day city of Saint Louis. The Missouri travels four-thousand kilometers from the high mountains in the north to the low lands of the south. It flows along the borders of seven states: Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, and finally Missouri. The first Europeans who reported seeing the river were at the mouth of the Missouri where it empties into the Mississippi.

  • Chief (Tin Doi) Tendoy 1834 -1907 Leader of a Mixed Band of Bannock
    Introducing 2012 Montana Cowboy Hall of Fame Inductee… Chief (Tin Doi) Tendoy 1834 -1907 Leader of a mixed band of Bannock, Lemhi, Shoshone & Tukuarika tribes Chief Tendoy (Tin Doi) was born in the Boise River region of what is now the state of Idaho in approximately 1834. The son of father Kontakayak (called Tamkahanka by white settlers), a Bannock Shoshone and a"Sheep Eater" Shoshone mother who was a distant cousin to the mother of Chief Washakie. Tendoy was the nephew of Cameahwait and Sacajewea. Upon the murder of Chief Old Snag by Bannack miners in 1863 Tendoy became chief of the Lemhi Shoshone. Revered by white settlers as a peacemaker Chief Tendoy kept members of his tribe from joining other tribes in their war with the whites. He led his people, known as Tendoy's Band, more than 40 years. He was a powerful force to reckoned with in negotiations with the federal government and keeping his tribe on peaceful terms with oncoming white settlers. In 1868, with his band of people struggling to survive as miners and settlers advanced upon their traditional hunting, fishing and gathering grounds, Chief Tendoy and eleven fellow Lemhi and Bannock leaders signed a treaty surrendering their tribal lands in exchange for an annual payment by the federal government as well as two townships along the north fork of the Salmon River. The treaty, having never been ratified, forced the tribe to move to a desert reservation known as Fort Hall, created for the Shoshone tribes in 1867. Chief Tendoy refused, expecting what the government had promised.

Out-of-State Visitors : visitors with residence outside of Montana. Methodology Traffic counters and traffic intercepts were used to establish total traffic through Virginia and Nevada City from July 1 through September 30, 1999. Traffic intercepts occurred during three four-day intervals throughout the study period in order to describe the population of vehicles that passed over the traffic counters. Privately-owned vehicles were pulled off the roadway for a brief interview regarding current place of residence, number of adults and youth in the travel group, length of time spent in Virginia and Nevada City, and rental vehicles. In all, 11,696 vehicles were counted during the 12 intercept days.
