A Further Report to the Indian Rights Association on the Proposed Removal of the Southern Utes (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
What happens when a government panel weighs a tribe’s future against land and water reality? This report examines the proposed removal of the Southern Utes, laying out the land, irrigation, and cost factors that shape a sweeping policy decision.
Through on‑the‑ground observations and detailed maps, the text analyzes the reservation’s suitability for cattle, sheep, and farming, and questions whether the chosen land truly serves the Indians’ long‑term needs. It also discusses how water scarcity, rough terrain, and nearby settlements influence both practical outcomes and political will.
- Assessments of land, water, and climate as they relate to agriculture and livestock.
- Economic and logistical considerations tied to removing a tribe and reappointing agency support.
- A view of the proposed reserve’s geography, accessibility, and potential for settlement.
- Arguments about education, civilization, and the best path toward self‑support for the Southern Utes.
Ideal for readers interested in 19th‑century American policy, Indigenous affairs, and the practical challenges behind territorial decisions.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details the conflicts and injustices faced by the Southern Ute tribe in Colorado. During the 19th century, the reservation they occupied was deemed inadequate by legislators, who sought to relocate them to a larger but less habitable area. The book scrutinizes the 1888 treaty between the US government and the Utes. It carefully examines the treaty's provisions, such as financial compensation and hunting privileges, and deems them insufficient and counterproductive. The author maintains that the relocation would hinder the Utes' progress towards civilization by encouraging idleness and substance abuse. They also highlight the significant value of the tribe's current reservation for agriculture and its role in fostering their cultural traditions. The author concludes by articulating the lasting impact of this treaty on the Southern Ute tribe and its implications for the broader history of Native American treatment in the United States.
