Blackfeet Nation in Browning and Reservation Life
A feature memorializes the Blackfeet tribe once powerful in the northwest, tracing their wars with rivals, smallpox devastation, Carlisle ties, mixed-blood leadership, and Browning as the reservation capital. It notes prominent red and mixed-blood figures, ranching and banking, and annual Browning celebration at July 4. It ends with a note on rail line sales involving Canadian lines and a potential Pennsylvania buyer.
