dc.description.abstractCattle, sheep and horses were Eastern Washington's industries, established a full Hundred years ago even before the original occupancy title to the land had been fully extinguished. Almost with the outbreak of the Civil War they rose to production with quantity increasing with the gold discoveries and attendant land settlement. In one of these discoveries miners swarmed like locusts-10,000 to 15,000 onto the Nez Perce Indian Reservation, occupying the Indian Land where the city of Lewiston, Idaho is now located. And what troops there were lifted not a hand to prevent the pillaging of the treasure from the earth. Incidentally less than 2,000 Nez Perce are to be paid about $1,700 each this year for that loss."en_US
