| dc.description.abstract | "If the whites take Indian lands, their trails will be marked with blood, ominously vowed Kamiakin, head chief of the Yakimas, to his warriors in the summer of 1854 just prior to their gigantic effort to drive all intruders from the Northwest. A modified tone, but not less determined, was expressed in 1921 to the Washington State Supreme Court by Chief Meninick, Yakima tribesman, who said: 'Our people were here before the white man came and even before the missionaries came...We say that when your officers punish us for taking fish at the places reserved (Treaty of 1855), you violate your treaty and your promise, and while you may punish us because you have the power, yet before God, Whose justice is more than that of men, we are innocent of having done wrong'." | en_US |
