[MONTANA -- ALBUMEN SHEEP RANCHING PHOTO]. HAGEMAN, [Ernest O] & MOORE, [Albert M]
A very nice original boudoir-sized albumen photograph of a large sheep ranching operation in the Bitterroot Valley somewhere near Hamilton Montana at the very end of the 19th-Century.
Hamilton MT: Hageman & Moore Photographers ca. 1900. One oblong boudoir-sized albumen photograph 8 x 5 in. mounted on beige-coloured studio board sized 11 x 6.75 in. w/ photographer’s imprint stamped on verso minor age toning & slight soiling to fore-edges minor wear & rubbing to corners still VG bright sharp image. Sheep raising was actually introduced into Montana’s Bitterroot Valley by Catholic Missionary Father De Smet and over the 19th-Century often grew in concert with cattle raising with many ranches maintaining both herds. Following the disastrous Winter of 1886-1887 in which thousands of cattle died off sheep ranching became the predominant stock shipped into and out of Montana as they not only handled the Montana Winters well they cost much less to raise and wool was a significant commodity. Hageman 1872-1944 had settled in Montana in 1896 and started operating as a photographer in the Bitterroot Valley by 1898 later partnering with Moore 1869-1955 for a short time in a photo studio in 1890 before both went out on their own by 1891 with Hageman operating as photographer until his death and Moore going first to Missoula and then Los Angeles.

[MONTANA -- LEGAL ARCHIVE]. [BUCY, Zene Howard (Plaintiff); KOCH, William E & KOCH, Margaret M (Defendants)].
Small archive of legal documents & autograph letters with manuscript land maps detailing a lawsuit filed in 1912 near Monida Montana. Rancher Zene Bucy sued his neighbors William & Margaret Koch to build a private road allowing access across their ranch to the new County highway in order to fulfill a sawmill and logging contract.
Dillon & Monida MT: Zene Bucy Monroe Bucy Clair William Robison W.T. George 1912. Fourteen pieces. Folio. 8.5 x 13 in. 3 leaves on thin onion skin paper signed by Martin Fricks & Monroe W. Bucy; ALS from William Koch to Zene Bucy; 2 leaves ALS signed Monroe Bucy; 2 leaves Report of Commissioners; 2 leaves 1 typescript Summons on Robison letterhead; 1 typescript Summons on Robison letterhead; 1 leaf oath of Commissioners typescript copy; 1 manuscript colour map by W.G.

This archive of legal documents chronicle the efforts of Montana rancher Zene Bucy to connect his ranch land cut off from the County Road from Monica to Lakeview MT in the years prior to World War I so that he could fulfill a logging and sawmill contract with Martin Fricks. Zene Bucy’s ranch was sandwiched between the T.C. Beattie and William & Margaret Koch ranches outside of Monida and his only option was to take over and build a road across Koch’s land. Initially Koch objected and insisted that Bucy buy the land for $ 150.00 as well as build a very expensive fence along the entire length of the road. Bucy refused hired Robison as his attorney and months later was able to have the County Road Commissioners rule that he could keep the road and only owed $ 30.00. At the time Beaverhead County MT was not only a bustling County Capital but also one of the major suppliers of wool cattle and lumber for Idaho and Montana mining companies. The Bucy’s were an influential Centennial Valley family in Beaverhead County first established by Andrew Bucy followed by his sons Monroe Zene Louis & Manley who all owned ranches in and around Monida MT and Dillon MT. Zene Bucy 1886-1928 operated as a rancher until after World War I and then sold out and moved to Denver CO where he owned and operated a cigar store until his death. The family is best remembered for the gunfight between Louis Bucy and brother Monroe Bucy which caused Monroe to buy and operate the Cowboy Bar in West Yellowstone in order to remove himself and his family from living near Louis. Koch 1869-1952 and wife Margeret 1883-1923 owned the ranch near Dillon MT until her death and then he relocated to Missoula MT. Monida MT still exists as a small unincorporated town with a population of 2 near the Montana - Idaho border. See: History of Beaverhead County 1800-1920 Vol. I pp. 46 48-49 388; Detail Assessment of Property Dillon Tribune August 23 1912. Zene Bucy, Monroe Bucy, Clair William Robison, W.T. George, unknown

[MONTANA -- NATIVE AMERICANS]. GARCIA, Andrew
Tough trip through paradise 1878-1879. Edited by Bennett H. Stein. Illustrated with photographs and maps.
Boston: Houghton Mifflin Co. 1967. 8vo. xviii 446 pp. With numerous photo plates maps maps on endpapers. Biege-gray cloth black lettering front cover & spine slight dustsoiling shelfwear w/ d.j. cover art photo of Garcia front cover Garcia’s Native American wives on back cover In-who-lise Squis-squis and Mal-lit-tay-lay minor chipping head & foot of spine fore-edges closed tear to spine still NF/VG- copy. First edition 2nd printing of this famed posthumously published semi-autobiographical memoir prepared and edited by Stein from Garcia’s original writings famously kept secure in dynamite boxes. Garcia 1855-1943 famously was a Mountain Man who set up a trading company centered on the Musselshell River and spent nine years of that life living with the Pend d’Oreille Indigenous Peoples who married three different Native American women beginning with In-who-lise his Nez Perce wife who was surviving witness of the Battle of Big Hole. Later David Stein the son of Ben Stein had access to the tightly held original manuscript and Diane Smith also granted access both interpreted the treatment by Garcia of his Native American wives and his intent to preserve their memories. Controversy over the editing process just how much of the memoir actually took place and factual elements persist but the work is still a compelling read.

[Montana Project].
Homesteading at Montana's Sun River Project.
Typed letter possibly a carbon. On 8" X 10 ½" sheet signed S.B. Robbins Project Engineer in type. On letterhead of the Department of the Interior United States Reclamation Service. With original mailing envelope and a pre-addressed postcard to respond to the letter. Some aging and browning crease at center fold; overall very good. Form letter writing to a possible homesteader noting that additional information on the massive irrigation project was available and that the recipient could request that information by using the enclosed postcard. The Sun River project was initiated to provide storage of Sun River water at Gibson Reservoir Willow Creek Reservoir and a few other reservoirs. On September 26 1906 the Department of the Interior authorized the USBR's Sun River Project under pressure from local residents namely those of Great Falls who wanted the irrigation of lands east of the Rocky Mountains along the Sun and Teton Rivers. Construction began on the Fort Shaw Division in May 1907 with the bulk of the work completed by July 1908. Water was first delivered to the lands in 1909. The main storage dam Gibson was constructed during 1926-1929 with the construction of lateral systems was finished in 1936.The author S.B. Robbins sometimes called the "father" of the Sun River project was project engineer when the Fort Shaw division opened in 1908. Joining the Reclamation Service soon after its establishment in 1902 Robbins took part in the early surveys of the Sun River project and by 1904 was the engineer in charge of the project. He held that position until 1910.Through the cooperative advertising efforts of the Reclamation Service the Great Falls Commercial Club and the Great Northern railroad people in other parts of the United States learned about the Sun River project. Notices in newspapers suggested that interested

[Montana Photographica]. Rogers, Herbert & Gale
Massive Collection of Kodak Photo Negatives Depicting Saltese Montana Across the First Half of the 20th Century
Saltese Mt. and various places across the American West 1959. Very good to near fine. Approximately 2150 photo negatives each about 3x5 inches contained in 22 fully-annotated Kodak negative albums. A bit of exposure bleeding at edges hardly affecting image areas. Occasional light scratching visible in margins. Fine strong images overall. A comprehensive and meticulous collection of photo negatives comprising well over 2000 images of Saltese Montana its industry development and culture over the first six decades of the 20th century. The images present here were compiled across two generations of the Rogers family primarily by Herbert Rogers and his son Gale Rogers both influential citizens in the very small town of Saltese during its brief heyday. Herbert moved to Montana in the late-19th century and began this photo record soon after; and until his retirement in the late 1920s he was the chief owner and operator of the power and water services for the town. Gale attended a small business school in Butte and thereafter was involved in many of the Rogers' local business interests including the Woodburn Mining Company the aforementioned Saltese Electric Light and Water Company and the Rogers Tourist Cabins and Standard Service Station. The elder Rogers was perhaps the prime mover of this archive's generation as the photo series ends in 1959 following quickly upon his death the year prior.<br /> <br /> Today the town of Saltese in the northwest corner of Montana near the border with Idaho is a small collection of houses with a bar and a general store sandwiched between Interstate 90 and the St. Regis River. The 2020 census recorded a population of ten. In its former life Saltese was a gold and silver mining town established in the 1880s as Silver City and renamed after the Nez Perce chief in 1891; for a time in the early-20th century and during the period covered by the present archive it could boast over 2000 residents and a stop on the Northern Pacific Railroad. The twenty-two albums that house the negative collection each contains an index filled with manuscript dates and descriptions for each image.<br /> <br /> The core of this archive is an almost sixty-year visual record of life in Saltese with images of town architecture views industry business social activity and citizens. The preponderance of images date from the early 1920s to the late 1950s with one album covering the period before World War I. The negatives include classic mining images railroad views and town floods; floods of the St. Regis River winter storms and their effects and various weather mitigation efforts; social events town baseball games and family gatherings; group and individual portraits of town citizens friends and members of the Rogers family. In addition to the images of mining efforts there is ample documentation of other industry in the region such as lumbering and milling; the local water and power plants which the Rogers owned; and construction of various edifices and businesses. The negatives are also an excellent record of town life showing schoolhouse gatherings town sports teams fire lookouts and Rogers family activities.<br /> <br /> A substantial portion of the collection documents automobile journeys taken across the intermountain West by the Rogers who traveled extensively in Montana Idaho Wyoming Utah Colorado and elsewhere. A subset of these is an interesting group of major dam projects and construction such as Polson Dam on the Flathead River and the Grand Coulee Dam on the Columbia River. In all a fabulous and expansive visual archive of a small town northwestern Montana and life in the mountain West as it was lived by the Rogers family during the first half of the 20th century. unknown

GOVERNMENT HOMESTEADS: 1500000 Acres Agricultural and Grazing Lands to be Open to the Public October 4 to 23 1909 in Cheyenne River and Standing Rock Indian Reservations
Chicago: The North-Western Line 1909. Pamphlet. Very good. President William Howard Taft's August 19 1909 presidential proclamation directed that certain lands in the Cheyenne River and Standing Rock Reservations be opened to the public for settlement between October 4 and 23 1909. This brochure outlines the opportunity for any United States citizen over the age of 21 who does not already own 160 acres of U.S. land to apply and secure a homestead. Married women were not eligible to apply "unless she has been deserted or abandoned by her husband or unless her husband is incapacitated by disease or otherwise earning support for his family and she is the head and main support of the family."<br /> <br /> The brochure also provides a description of the lands open to settlement and detailed instructions on the process for registering and selecting the allotted 160-acre tracts. The North-Western Line a subsidiary of the Chicago and North Western Railway was a major economic force in South Dakota beginning in 1878.<br /> <br /> Federal Indian policy during the period from 1870 to 1910 marked a departure from earlier policies that were dominated by removal treaties reservations and war. The new policy known as the General Allotment Act of 1887 or Dawes Act focused specifically on breaking up reservations and tribal lands by granting land allotments to individual Native Americans. Amendments to the General Allotment Act also made it easier for Indian land to pass into non-Indian hands. The Burke Act 1906 contributed to the ongoing fractionation of lands within reservation boundaries by requiring the government to assess whether individuals were "competent and capable" to manage their land. Printed on both sides of a 32" x 9" sheet that folds to 4" x 9 ¼" 16 panels including a map on one panel by Poole Bros. Chicago. Light soiling; otherwise very good. The North-Western Line unknown
