The inspector reported "The excessive number of employees used at this place, by referring to the list of employees, it will be seen that five laborers are continuously employed-this is outside of regular employees and I can see no necessity for this unusual number.  Two should be an abundance for this kind of help-one at the stable, and the other for general agency work-besides these five there is a janitor at the hospital.  An engineer is employed to draw a map, from hearsay, not a very reliable map.  These Indians are in need of a horse rake and mowers; hay being their crop.  They should have enough of these machines.  These Indians sold to the agency trader four hundred head of beef cattle, but I recommend they should be given the beef contracts themselves to supply the agency beef contracts, say 500,000 lbs. of beef sold to the government, where they will get cash and a fair price.  It will also be an encouragement to them in cattle raising.  This Indian trader runs two stores on this reservation; that is the Clarke and Dawson outfit of half-breeds-they have been trying to run reservation matters their way, but have been called down by the full-bloods and the agent." Agent Baldwin reported, "It may be of some interest to you to be informed that about forty miles northwest from this agency is found the wonderland of this Reservation, a chain of lakes, the largest of which is known as St. Mary Lake, all fed by a number of glaciers, one of which is said to be from two to three miles in width, and from fifteen hundred feet in thickness, swift streams flowing from all of these glaciers, above which tower the snow crested peaks of the great divide, that gives us the Atlantic and Pacific slopes.  The grandeur of which being unique, excels in wonder the enchanting scenery of the Great National Park.  I am unaware that Glaciers exist elsewhere in the United States, and believe these to be the only ones thus far discovered."  He reported,"A Mr. Grinnell of New York City has visited St. Mary's Lake neither asked for nor received permission to hunt or fish on reservation; was understood to have carried credentials from Indian Office and was in company with J.W. Schultz.  Grinnell and Schultz held council with several irresponsible Indians-the purpose of said council is considered malicious, vindictive and calculated to reflect unfairly and misrepresent the condition of affairs at this agency.  J.W. Schultz, who has been living on reservation for six years, a lazy, shiftless life sharing the rations issued to his Indian wife.  Past year has lived on border of Canada- has taken out of St. Mary's Lake more than 9 tons of fish, which he has sold in Canada."
