Treaty Provisions
Hunting, Fishing, Gathering
“And the party of the second part hereby agree and promise that when the houses have been built as provided in the first clause of this agreement, they will remove the Flathead tribe to said houses, (except such as shall take land in the Bitter Root Valley,) in accordance with the third section of the act above cited, and will thereafter occupy the Jocko reservation as their permanent home. But nothing in this agreement shall deprive said Indians of their full right to hunt and fish in any Indian country where they are now entitled to hunt and fish under existing treaties. Nor shall anything in this agreement be so construed as to deprive any of said Indians, so removing to the Jocko reservation, from selling all their improvements in the Bitter Root Valley.” — (Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes of the Flathead Reservation)
