The Blackfeet won
a non-imaginary judgment in U.S. v. Conrad Investment Company to enjoin the Conrad-Valier
Investment Company from diverting all of the water of Birch Creek to farmers in
Valier and Conrad on the southern boundary of the reservation and it confirmed
the power of the United States to prevent trespassers from taking the water
resources of the Blackfeet Indian Reservation. The confederates “did not care
for U.S. Law” and diverted all of the flow of Birch Creek; defying the U.S.
Constitution, Congress, the Supreme Court, the 1855 Treaty and the President.
The Montana border-whites
next conspiracy was to encroach on the reservation by introducing the Blackfeet
Allotment Bill in Congress “which would allot reservation lands held in
communal grazing tracts for the use of the Blackfeet cattle ranchers” thus violating
the 1896 Agreement/Article Five.
The intent of Montana
Senator Walsh’s 1907 Blackfeet Allotment Bill is to force the sale of un-allotted
“surplus” reservation lands to oil companies, railroad, cattle ranchers, farmers,
and land speculators likely containing grazing tracts, irrigated lands, coal
mines, and oil and gas fields. Mass tribal starvation was the primary weapon
used by the Montana confederate border-whites to force the 1887 Blackfeet land
cession of 17,000,000 acres in the Sweet Grass Hills gold mines and grazing
lands, and in robbing the $1.5 million 1887 Blackfeet land cession funds,
thereby forcing the sale of another million acres of Blackfeet lands in the 1896
Agreement for $1.5 million containing the “mineral belt’ and robbing those
tribal land cession funds in turn.
