District close to locking up new school site By Brad Mosher The Herald The Killdeer School District is close to finalizing a location for a new campus and will soon be sending out a survey to the public over the proposed new construction meant to handle the school’s extreme growth. According to Superintendent Gary Wilz, the district lawyers are in negotiations with the owners for a 20-acre parcel near the city.
The district will also be ready to submit a survey to the public about the project in early August, the superintendent added. It will be mailed out with the district expecting to give the public a six-week window to collect a response. “It looks like mid to late September, but if it is earlier, that would be great,” Wilz said about getting a response. If things go well, the district could try to have the measure to fund the construction placed
on the November ballot, the superintendent added. “It could be, but I wouldn’t lock into that right now.,” he said. Part of that will depend on the results of the survey. “It sent by mail, but once they see that they have the ability to complete it electronically. There will be instructions on the survey so they could either do it by paper or they will be able to go online and complete the survey.” The parcel acquisition is close, Wilz explained. “It is not final-
ized yet, but we are really close. The land owner’s attorney has it and our attorney has been in contact with them.” The location of the parcel hasn’t been publicized yet, but the superintendent said that it should be eligible for annexation and city infrastructure. It should meet all the necessary requirements. “We initially asked for 40 (acres) but we are probably going to end up with about 20 (acres),” he said. That could be
enough for the new campus, according to the superintendent. “A football field minus the end zones is about an acre,” Wilz said. “So, we sit on 13 acres right now with the entire complex, so the reality is if we get 20 acres we’ll not only have what we currently have …. but we’ll seven additional football fields of space there for us.

HAT TIPS: What a gosh darn cowboy likes.... Dean Meyer’s HAT TIPS has been brought to you by these local sponsors
Hello, I’ve got a friend that’s a heck of a good cowboy. He can pick up a rodeo, calve a bunch of heifers, get his hay put up, and put a good handle on a broncy colt. When he was younger he followed the big rodeo and rode bucking bulls. He raised a couple of great young men and is raising some wonderful grandkids. We ran cattle together on Fort Berthold for a few years. Now I’m old and fat and scared of horses, so he did most of the work. I just kind of tagged along. He had a saying I heard an awful lot. You could be riding along in blistering heat swatting at horse flies and mosquitoes. You could be looking for the last few cattle you were short in November with temperatures around zero and your toes froze and ready to fall off. You could be pushing calves up the alley at Pete’s branding with rose bushes and sharp nails tearing at your clothes and skin. And Wally would smile and say, “You know what I like about being a cowboy? Every “gosh darn thing”!”
And they learned that as they walk back to shore they could go around the end of the fence and graze on the neighbor’s second cutting alfalfa. One good thing about it. It gave us a chance to meet our neighbors and they were a heck of a lot more supportive of us than they would have had to be. They are cattle people and know bad stuff happens when you have cows. So I took Shirley along for moral support and drove 170 miles one way to extend the fences into a couple of these lakes. The second time this week. DEAN MEYERS Shirley is good help. But she hates mosquitoes and Only he didn’t say gosh darn. hates the leeches that attach to You can figure it out. you when fencing in the lake.

OMDAHL: ROKU brings Country-Western music back... By Lloyd Omdahl Whenever my son comes with a black box, I know I’m going to be pressured into a new electronic gimmick the learning of which, considering a human’s normal lifespan, can’t be amortized in my schedule. And I’ll have to learn more than I want to know about something. “What’s ROKU?” I asked him, guessing it was probably a Chinese soup or a new dog food. Well, the little black box added multiple channels to my already overloaded TV, meaning I would have to add two more hours of TV watching to amortize his investment. Waste not, want not, you know. The first channel I hit was country-western music, something I used to watch faithfully in my younger days. Because of DVD technology, they now play music from 1947 when Ernest Tubb was walking the floor over you and Roy Acuff was singing about some great speckled bird. Some of my old favorites are gone. Jim Reeves, Cowboy Copas and Patsy Cline were killed in plane crashes. Ernest Tubb is gone waltzing across Texas and was last seen in Flagstaff. (Give the old guy a break. He didn’t have GPS on his guitar.) Anne Murray was the first singer to appear on my ROKU. She was singing for someone to help her make it through the night. So were
21 other country singers. They just need to quit drinking before going to bed. And I always thought she was a nice innocent girl from Nova Scotia. I wonder
what her mother thinks about that song. Actually, she wasn’t making a proposal for sex. She was really lonesome. (Come on, clean up your mind.)
But Anne has such a sweet mellow voice she could sing anything and you would love it. If someone wrote the lyr-

that everybody is taking a little bit upon their shoulders to monitor. “We can do all the announcing we can possibly do, but people have got to start watching the weather.” That means the people need to find the sources to rely on and they can access which could be television and radio stations, along with weather applications on smartphones. “They can watch the National Weather service in Bismarck,” she said. In addition, people could get battery-operated or hand-cranked weather radios to find out about local weather conditions, watches and warnings. Brew said people need to also be
watching the skies when they are in remote condtition where they may not have cell or radio signals. When people leave in the morning to go to a remote locations, it would be important to also check the weather forecast for the day before leaving, she added. “If it is going to be 90 degrees, there is a really strong possibility that (there might be trouble),” Brew explained. “We are at that time of year when things happen,” she added. If people in Dunn County want to see if there may be bad weather approaching, Brew recommended looking west toward Montana. “You have got to look at Montana and the south together. “Generally, it will be coming from the Bowman to Beach area straight for us,” she explained, noting that
is the summer routes for extreme weather. People can check several sources for weather. “Get used to watching the Facebook page. If I got it coming, I will put it on Facebook ... so will the National Weather Service and the Sheriffs Department will share it.” Brew also advises people to make phone calls to start checking if they are in a remote and exposed location, like out on a lake. It is important to have a wether radio, she added. “That can wake you up out of a dead sleep. “That has happened to me. I was like, ‘Oh my goodness’,” she said. “It is a cheap investment to protect yourself. And you can take it (a weather radio) with you,” she explained.
the county courthouse helped to prevent casualties when the tornado demolished the fairgrounds building just east of the city. A class reunion at the nearby golf course was also evacuated. The tornado was an EF-1 according to the National Weather Service’s Warning Coordination Meteorologist John Paul Martin after he examined the damage Saturday. Martin, based in the Bismarck office, explained that the tornado went through the northeast area of the city for about 2.85 miles. It had winds of 105 miles per hour and lasted for about eight minutes after touching down at approximately 9:25 p.m. Friday near 70th Street SW, north of the city. According to the National Weeather Service, wind gusts of 72 mph and 90 mph were measured by a North Dakota Agricultural Weather Network (NDAWN) station, likely associated with the outer edge of the tornadic circulation. The intense mesocyclone dropped golf ball size hail around Lefor, before heading towards Mott, according to the NWS. The tornado forced the cancellation of planned events on the final day of the annual fair, including the 5-kilometer race, parade and demolition derby.

However, while the community was cleaning up all the fallen trees and debris left by the storm, the fair board was able to set up several events for Saturday including a community meal during the afternoon at the local Knights of Columbus building. By evening, the fair board had also arranged for the once-canceled final night concert to be moved to downtown. The South Dakota-based band, Broken Spokes, set up in front of the Farmers Union Insurance building and bleachers were moved downtown for seating. The once-canceled 5-kilometer race was moved to Sunday morning, with organizers accepting entrees next to the concert. According to Martin, Mott wasn’t just hit by a tornado Friday evening. “I don’t believe all the damage in Mott was caused by the tornado. It was caused by high winds outside the tornado area. They had both (tornado and high winds). In Skywarn training, we call that the rear flank downdraft. So, there is wind damage in Mott and tornado damage. There were some storm that came through after the tornado and I have been told there were some high winds then. It is nearly impossible to tell which storm caused what damage.

mark,” he said. “The tornado clipped through the eastern edge of town,” he said, noting the way that it bent the flagpole in the cemetery, destroyed a camper trailer along Highway 8, bent a Cenex sign completely over, ripped the roof off a Mott Equity Lumber building, and crushed grain bins on its way to the fairgrounds. He said it followed along Highway 8 before cutting east along Highway 21 and toward the fairgrounds. Along its wake, the storage building behind the car wash on First Street next to Highway 8 lost about three-quarters of its roof, a garage was damage and a trailer was left at an angle on one side of Highway 21 going east. On the north side, the damage was more pronounces. The entire weekend was rough on Hettinger County and neighboring areas. On Sunday night, there were reports of winds of up to 77 miles

per hour as a severe thunderstorm rolled across western North Dakota through Hettinger, Slope, Stark, Billings and Dunn counties. On Saturday night, Hettinger County again was hit with high winds and rain. When the tornado warning siren went off Friday, Deb Marthaller was inside The Playhouse Theater in downtown Mott, partway through the movie “Rocketman.” “When the siren went off, we stopped the movie. There were only a couple of people in the theater, one who lived downtown and a couple from Carson. They both decided to go home. We went to the basement behind the screen,” Marthaller said, adding they could hear the wind and crashing sounds outside. The Playhouse survived the high winds and the storm, the theater manager said. Also one downtown building lost its brick, falling out onto the sidewalk and the street. Nearby, Gunners restaurant was
damaged on the roof and debris was found in the pools, forcing workers to try to get the two pools clean of debris. At the pool, the blue privacy cover was blown down but the rest of the pool seemed to come out of the Friday night storms intact. “We are just trying to get cleaned up. We fared pretty well except for the debri and the pumps are not running,” said Kris Brunelle early Saturday morning. “There a lot of trees and whatnot lying around.” Looking out across the field used as a frisbee golf course and a volleyball court, the storm left its mark. “The washway is full. We have go some trees down.” Looking at volleyball area flooded by the storms, Brunelle joked that it “might be our pool for today. “But overall, it wasn’t bad. Nobody was hurt,” she added.

baseball or softball can use the cooperative agreement the Cowboys have with Dickinson High School, but that could also change if the high school population keeps increasing, Wilz explained. “That could be in our future.” Something else which could be in the future for high school students could be a series of vocational areas on the campus. “We could do that if we build a new high school campus
or if we remodel. “We could do that either way.” The biggest obstacle so far for the plan to build a new campus has been finding and securing the parcel for it, according to the superintendent. “I am pleased that once we get the land locked in we can move this thing forward. That has been our biggest struggle for the past six and a half months.”

written by Tessa Sandstrom July 22, 2019 — On this date in 1916, eight men who were concealed by an icehouse and under the noise of a running twine machine escaped from the State Penitentiary after breaking through a weak point in the wall using piece of shafting, a mason’s bar and a crowbar. Three prisoners were caught that night at midnight. It took several weeks to catch the remaining five. The escapees were among at least 17 prisoners who escaped within a three-month period. The prison lacked the funds to hire enough guards to keep watch. On the day of this escape, the guards were keeping watch in the bathhouse, leaving the watchtower unmanned. The high number of escapes that year was also caused by a high inmate population of “unusually bad character,” according to the warden. Journey of the Highgate Mastodon written by Merry Helm

July 23, 2019 — In the spring of 1890, William Regcraft found some bones while digging a ditch on his uncle’s farm, one mile from Highgate, Ontario. A hardware merchant named William Hillhouse bought the bones, and he and his uncle, John Jelly, also bought the right to continue excavating. What they found was almost an entire skeleton of an Ice-Age mastodon, relative of the modern elephant. Hillhouse and Jelly cleaned the bones and strengthened them with two layers of hot white glue. The one and only tusk, described as a “perfect beauty,” was dropped and broken in two places. After it was repaired, they offered R.A. Essery $50 to take the mastodon out on tour. Essery headed toward Winnipeg, putting up posters that read, “A Monster Unearthed! Do not fail to see the Highgate Mastodon!” A review by the St. Thomas Evening Journal read, “...the cavity in the head from whence the fire of a mastodonic eye...is almost large enough to admit a man’s head.” Between 1890 and 1892, Essery died somewhere out west, and Hillhouse and Jelly lost track of what they called “The World’s Greatest Wonder.” Then, Hillhouse received a handbill from his niece in Neche, ND, revealing it was now being displayed by a Mr. Thompson

and Mr. Glover. The bones then wound up in storage at the Bibb Broom Corn Co. in Minneapolis. After some time, the company sold them to Harry Dickinson, a Great Northern Railroad fireman, to recoup unpaid storage costs. Harry shipped them by rail to his father’s home in Barnesville, MN, and they exhibited the mastodon around Minnesota and the Dakotas for the next several years. Around 1898, a Buxton physician, James Grassick, saw the show and later bought the mastodon for $10, and in 1902, he loaned the bones to UND for display. A week later, the Grand Forks Herald published an article about it, and three days later, UND received a letter from William Hillhouse claiming rightful ownership. Grassick quickly sold the bones to UND for $100, and when attorneys came after him soon after, he told them he no longer owned them. It was 49 years before the mastodon surfaced again. UND history professor Elwyn Robinson wrote to the State Historical Society to say a mastodon had been discovered in an attic on campus, and it was shipped to the Historical Society and placed in a storage building. Early in 1991, plans were being made for a permanent exhibit at the ND Heritage Center titled The First People: North Dakota Prehistory. Committee members were wishing they had a nice reconstructed megafauna, like an ancient bison or mammoth for the display.
Collections curator Mark Halvorson asked if a mastodon would do, at which point the chief archaeologist started laughing, saying, “Will a mastodon do? Yeah, that’d be nice!” Halvorson replied, “OK, I’ll pull our mastodon.” Paleontologist John Hoganson said, “You have a mastodon!?” Halvorsen said, “(Yeah, out) beside the ‘61 Lincoln Continental in the warehouse.” Museum director C.L. Dill said, “I know I’ve seen this lower jawbone we have in a crate, but I’ve never seen anything else.” It had been more than a quarter century since a mastodon had been reconstructed anywhere in the world, but after bouncing around in crates for a hundred years, the ancient Highgate Mastodon was on its way to having itself put back together. It now proudly stands near the entrance of the Heritage Center Museum.

REGIONAL
The Knights of Mayhem will joust and fight with swords on summer weekends at the Renaissance Festival in Regent .
Going Medieval By Brad Mosher The Herald
The inaugural North Dakota Renaissance Festival got off to a sizzling start Saturday in Regent. Literally. With temperatures hovering near 90 degrees in the open field behind the Enchanted Castle, it still had a strong opening day Saturday. But organizer Randy Jones said he quickly learned some lessons from the opening day. The biggest lesson was the need for more shade. He said he helped improve that when he bought large umbrellas and placed them in large wooden spindles, providing shady areas for the audiences in the jousting area as well as around the booths.
But Mother Nature had another surprise for him when he came back to the site Sunday morning for the second day of the festival. The canopy he used for his booth was hundreds of yards away, crumpled, thanks to stormy weather for the second straight night accompanied by high winds. Jones said he advertised the festival with radio and television interviews over previous months throughout the state. He is hoping that helps bring in more people from all over the state throughout the rest of the summer before the festival closes down Sept. 1. Until that day, the festival will be open on weekends in Regent, just east of the Enchanted Castle. One woman, a former California resident, said
when she saw the festival advertised, she had to come all the way to Regent. That, Jones said, was what he was hoping to do, create something that would make the small Hettinger County city a destination, like his former employer, Gary Greff, had done with his giant Enchanted Highway metal sculptures. “I worked for him for a few months, then I had a bad car accident. He got a replacement during the six months that I was gone.” Jones went back to work at the Brickhouse Grille in Dickinson after recovering. He said that he got the idea about a renaissance themed event before his car accident sidelined him. For Jones, the whole idea has been a learning

the main area, including the “Lovely Dozen” belly dancers and an acrobatic troupe. Jones hopes to get more vendors in as the summer progresses. “We had more Saturday, opening day. “A lot of people are like ‘prove it’. I really don’t need to prove it to anybody. I put it on and if it happens, it happens.” Some of the improvements may have to wait until next summer because of budgetary reasons, Jones added. He admits that he is in a medieval version of the chicken or egg where it is hard to get people to come to an event until they know it is happening. “We have done some very good advertising on Facebook and iHeart media.

experience and helps him make changes and improvements. “Okay. There’s problem. Identified. Make it not a problem and move on to the next thing,” he said, discussing the giant red umbrellas around the festival. Jones kept busy, cooking turkey legs, hot corn on the cob, hamburgers and hot dogs on a pair of grills behind his area. He also sold soda and, later in the day, beer.He likes using the extra large spindles as a wall for the event. “It kind of fits the genre and stuff,” he said. Although it was slower Sunday than on his opening day, having advanced sales helped, Jones added.

We have gotten out there, but there is still a lot of people who haven’t heard.”Still, it it gets up and running successfully, he thinks it will help Regent get more business in the long run.“I am really trying to pair with Gary so that we do kind of help each other out.” Jones explained. “It I a struggle out here in a small town, but I’m fine with it. “I am not disappointed. I’ll plug along the first year, and if we survive, we’ll be bigger and better next year,” he said.

DOE awards grants to UND Sen. John Hoeven, a member of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee and the Energy and Water Development Appropriations Committee, has announced that the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has awarded two grants totaling $16 million to the Energy and Environmental Research A worker starts cleaning up debris along Mott’s main thoroughfare Saturday after the community was hit by a tornado July 12. There were no casualties from the EF-1 tornado. HERALD/Brad Mosher

end, there is damage. It is just like it followed a path.” Across the street, Jack Griffin’s home got hit by two trees. One, collapsed on the front of the house and damage one corner of the building with the branches covering his carport. His neighbor’s tree landed on the back side of the house where one of the bedrooms is on the second floor. In addition, the tree covered an outer roof over the rear patio. Saturday morning, Griffin was reviewing the damage when his friends and neighbors stopped by to help. Dwayne Olson used lopping shears to start trimming back the tree branches covering the
carport. Minutes later, Dean Wehri and family members stopped by Griffin house with a power saw and went on top of the carport to cut the tree back branch by branch. With power out in the city for part of Saturday, the local Cenex station’s cold drinks and hot cooked food made it a popular stop for families and people working on cleaning up the mess left behind. The station survived, but the tall sign showing the gas prices was flattened by the tornado, which also took the roof off one of the buildings behind the station. One Mott resident described the event as “all heck broke loose” in an interview with a television reporter Saturday morning. Geno Sloane told the
reporter she was watching television when they broke into television programming with a warning that a storm cell was approaching Mott. “My son called me and told me to look outside. There are a lot of black clouds to the north … you have got to get to the basement.” She told the reporter that she went down to the basement and turned on the the television there before the power went off. “Then all heck broke loose,” she said, excusing herself for using a different four-letter word. She added that she could hear the rain and listened to her handcranked radio so she could continue to hear updates. It wasn’t until morning that she learned the impact it had on the
community. The Enhanced Fujita scale starts with a rating of zero with winds between 65 to 85 miles per hour. An EF-1 tornado (moderate), like the one in Mott, ranges from 86 mph up to 110 miles per hour, putting the Mott tornado just six miles per hour short of being an EF-2 (significant) tornado. EF-2 tornadoes go from 111 mph winds up to 135 mph. The clean up showed the type of community Mott is, according to Marthaller. It was a town effort to sort of get back to normal in Mott, she added, noting that there was a veritable army of small bobcat equipment working around town to clear streets and clean up the town.

device will cause the lights on an automobile to follow curves or turns in the road automatically. It will work on any kind of car and will be a splendid rig to take the danger spots out of a crooked road on a dark night. Clarence has had several inquiries from auto firms to secure a right to the use of the device.” Seven years earlier, on July 26, the Pioneer reported that Crum had received his first patent for a “rein holder, a clever little contrivance which fastens to the dashboard of the buggy and keeps the reins from falling under the feet of the team. The Rolla Star,” the article continued, “is out with the suggestion that he should now patent a contrivance that would enable a fellow to drive with one hand when out riding with his girl. (Others) say there is a scheme that would beat any patented device — let the girl drive the team.”

Senator pushes energy projects At a recent hearing of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, Senator John Hoeven continued his efforts to advance the development and implementation of carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies in North Dakota. Specifically, the senator secured a commitment from Steven Winberg, Assistant Secretary for Fossil Energy at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), to visit the state and learn about the work of the Energy and Environmental Research Center (EERC) at the University of North Dakota (UND) and its partners firsthand. Winberg oversees programs that directly benefit the EERC’s projects, including: · Project Tundra, a post-combustion technology to retrofit existing power plants, being led by Minnkota Power, as well as BNI Coal and Allete Clean Energy. · The Allam Cycle, technology for new coal and natural gas power plants that uses supercritical CO2 to increase efficiency and allow emissions to be captured. This project is being developed by EERC, Basin Electric and Allete Inc. “It’s one thing to demonstrate that
CCUS is technically-viable, but the goal is to make these technologies commercially-viable,” Hoeven said. “The EERC and others are working to crack that code and realize the potential of efforts like Project Tundra and the Allam Cycle. We appreciate Assistant Secretary Winberg’s willingness to come to the state, which will help us reinforce and expand the DOE’s support for these projects. This support, combined with our legislation to make the economics of CCUS more viable, is an important part of keeping the projects moving forward and implementing this technology on a broad scale.” Hoeven’s invitation to Winberg comes as part of his work to bolster the partnership between the DOE and the EERC. As a member of the Energy and Water Development Appropriations Committee, Hoeven secured strong support in Fiscal Year 2019 for DOE programs that would further the EERC’s efforts and is working to maintain similar funding in the coming years. At the same time, Hoeven is advancing legislation to make the legal, tax and regulatory reforms that will help make CCUS commercially-
viable. His efforts include: · The Carbon Capture Modernization Act, Hoeven’s bipartisan legislation to modernize the 48A tax credit for clean coal facilities to better support CO2 capture retrofit projects, like Project Tundra.

If you think that is a weird song, think of “I Woke Up Still Not Dead Again Today.” Most country-western songs are tragedies put to music. In fact, countrywestern folks sing things they wouldn’t dare say in public. If you plan to go to a country-western show, bring your own towel. Love is an absolute disaster and there are folks crying in the aisles with every heartbreaking verse. Apparently, wherever there is love there is hurt.

Rock Lake Boys to War by Merry Helm July 25, 2019 — It was about this time in July 1918 that ten young men from Rock Lake were going off to fight in World War I. The Rock Lake Ripples called their send-off “the largest assembly of any as on previous occasions in our village...” The Town Hall was undergoing repairs at the time, so the event was staged outside. Benches made of planks were arranged in front of the hotel, a piano was moved out onto the veranda, and folks who came by automobile were asked to park out back so that there would be plenty of space for the crowd that gathered. The Ripples reported that the program began with the “rendering of several selections by the Rock Lake Bank,” which leads a person to wonder just what types of renderings banks

I’m Not Lisa, You Picked A Fine Time To Leave Me, Lucille, etc. etc. etc. and more etc. I think a country-western concert would be a good place for the Catholic Church to recruit priests. Then there is this bit of wisdom Kris Kristofferson put in Me and Bobbie McGee: “Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose; nothing ain’t worth nothing but it’s free.” Tell me how that relates to Bobbie McGee. Better yet, tell me how that relates to anything rational. As the darling of the Evangelicals, vocalist Amy Grant was severely criticized for getting divorced to marry Vince Gill who got a divorce to marry Amy. She answered the criticism by saying “that’s what grace is all about.” Rubbing God’s nose in His gift of grace did not sit well with churchy people. In fact, I didn’t forgive her for 15 years. It took me that long to realize that we all rub God’s nose in it every day.

The bill would incentivize the development of facilities for CCUS and direct air capture, as well as pipelines to transport captured CO2. o The Enhancing Fossil Fuel Energy Carbon Technology (EFFECT) Act, which was introduced by Senators Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska). The bill would establish four new DOE programs focused on coal and natural gas technology, carbon storage, carbon utilization and carbon removal.

George Catlin, Frontier Artist written by Merry Helm July 26, 2019 — Today is the birthday of one of our most important frontier artists. George Catlin was born in Pennsylvania in 1796 when George Washington was serving his second term in office. Catlin was the fifth of fourteen children, was on the small side, and had black hair and a dark complexion. His mother and grandfather had been among the few survi-
vors of the “Wyoming Valley Massacre” in Pennsylvania, and as a child, George heard many stories surrounding that encounter. He developed a fascination with Native Americans, and when he was 10 years old, he and a friend started hurling tomahawks. One hit Catlin’s left cheek and scarred him for life. Catlin’s parents pushed him to earn a law degree. He did it but, he later wrote, “Another and stronger passion was getting the advantage of me, that of painting...” As a self-taught artist, Catlin’s law office became cluttered with art supplies and paintings of judges and juries, and at age 24 he finally decided to sell his law books in favor of canvas. Catlin continued to focus on portraits, but in 1824, a delegation of Native Americans passing through Pennsylvania inspired him to focus on their culture.

Burgers in The Park
Six years later, he moved to St. Louis, where he became friends with General William Clark and painted portraits of American Indians who visited Clark’s office. Catlin was aboard the first steamboat to navigate up the Missouri from St. Louis into what is now North Dakota. Of the reactions of the tribes to the steamboat, he wrote “... others, in some places, as the boat landed in front of their villages, came with great caution and peeped over the bank to see the fate of their chiefs, whose duty it was, from the nature of their office, to approach us, whether friends or foes, and to go on board. Sometimes in their plight, they were instantly thrown back, neck and heels, over each other’s heads and shoulders – men, women and children, and dogs, sage, sachem, old and young – all in a mass, at the frightful discharge of the steam from
the escape pipe, which the captain of the boat let loose upon them for his own fun and amusement.” Catlin lived for a short while at Fort Clark and Fort Union during the eight years he spent among the Plains tribes. The observations and notes he made later filled a 2-volume book. He also painted literally hundreds of portraits and scenes from tribal life, ceremonies and rituals. In fact, it was largely because of Catlin’s work that we know as many details about early Mandan culture as we do; only five years after he stayed with them, the entire tribe was almost complete wiped out by smallpox. Catlin later wrote that he considered the Indian “the most honest and honorable race of people,” and said, “no Indian ever betrayed me, struck me a blow, or stole from me a shilling’s worth of my property that I am aware
of.” Unfortunately, Catlin’s work was largely unappreciated during his lifetime. A few years after he went back East, he presented his paintings to Congress, which made a shortsighted decision to reject it. By the time he died of Bright’s disease in 1872, Catlin was virtually penniless – yet now he is recognized as one of the foremost painters of American Indians. The reason that much of the work survives is that, fol-
lowing Catlin’s death, a widow of one of Catlin’s creditors donated her collection of his paintings to the Smithsonian. Here in North Dakota, a number of his works can be viewed at the Fargo Public Library and at the Heritage Center in Bismarck. “Dakota Datebook” is a radio series from Prairie Public in partnership with the State Historical Society of North Dakota and with funding from the North Dakota Humanities Council.
