  • Charlo (also Charlot; Claw of the Little Grizzly or Small Grizzly-Bear Claw) (c. 1830–1910) was head chief of the Bitterroot Salish from 1870 to 1910. Charlo followed a policy of peace with the American settlers in Southwestern Montana and with the soldiers at nearby Fort Missoula. After the extermination of the buffalo herds, Charlo struggled for twenty years to maintain his people's economic independence in their homeland, the Bitterroot Valley. When Charlo's people were finally forced to remove to the Flathead Indian Reservation by the U.S. federal government, Charlo negotiated with retired general Henry B. Carrington to secure good farms and assistance for the Bitterroot Salish. Charlo spent the rest of his life attempting to hold the U.S. government accountable to fulfill its promises and defending his people's rights to reservation land against white efforts to open the reservation for homesteading.

dbp:text
  • "Since our forefathers first beheld , more than seven times ten winters have snowed and melted ... We were happy when first came. We first thought he came from the light, but he comes like the dusk of the evening now, not like the dawn of the morning. He comes like a day that has passed, and night enters our future with him ... In his poverty we fed, we cherished him — yes, befriended him and showed him the fords and defiles of our lands. he has filled graves with our bones ... His course is destruction; he spoils what the spirit who gave us this country made beautiful and clean. ... His laws never gave us a blade, nor a tree, nor a duck, nor a grouse, nor a trout. ... How often does he come? You know he comes as long as he lives, and takes more and more, and dirties what he leaves.." (en)
