I had depended. as the gentleman from Colorado had. on the War Department and on the Association of Indian War Veterans for the drafting of a bill that would: include all of these people. But it seems to me that the definition is faulty. as I understand some of the Indian campaigns. in several particulars. It does not include specifically any of the early fights along the Old Overland or Old Mormon Trail up the Platte. where there was a continuous attempt on the part of the Sioux to prevent immigration. I can not find any of these definitions. under which the fights around Casper or old Fort Fetterman are clearly included. It would require a very broad construction of any of these provisions to include the campaign in which. as my friend from Nebraska reminds me.
