Here is a pop quiz. Can you name the county with the most reservations or
even the state it is in?
In that county sometime around 1900 a local land commissioner shot and
killed an Indian on the main street. He was not charged because the only
witnesses were Indians and they could not testify in Court. This same land
commissioner altered survey records by changing a township number by one
moving a reservation slightly north into very poor lands. He told no one
and when the records were accepted by the government the Indians could not
sue but had to move from an area of decent farm land to an area of hills
and rocks.
