Chief (?) Tobacco¹ (M)
(circa 1850 - ), #22867

     The nationality of Chief (?) Tobacco was Oyuhkpe Teton Lakota.¹ Chief (?) Tobacco was born circa 1850.¹ He lived after 1890 at Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, Wounded Knee District, Shannon Co., South Dakota, USA; "One of the major Oglala bands of the 19th Century was the Oyuhkpe, which settled on Pine Ridge Reservation in the Wounded Knee District. In the 19th Century its great leaders included such chiefs as Tobacco, White Plume, Black Fox, the latter’s son Kicking Bear, and Big Road – in every case men with strong links to the Northern Lakota divisions. The band has always had very strong Miniconjou connections. It is my belief that the Oyuhkpe band actually was part of the Miniconjou oyate for much of the period 1760-1830. Subsequently they shifted back to the Oglala circle, but continued to maintain very strong Northern Lakota links – especially Miniconjou, but also to the Itazipco and Hunkpapa – until the reservation system terminated the old migratory way of life. Crazy Horse had very strong ties to this band – indeed an agency document from 1874 states that he was an Oyuhkpe. One Oyuhkpe sub-band was known as the Wakan or Sacred band (it may be the outfit to which Kicking Bear’s family belonged). My reconstruction of early Lakota history suggests that this was a very conservative band, with strong links to the Calf Pipe Keepers; sister tiyospaye existed among the Itazipco and Hunkpapa."-[Bray].¹

It's been 22 years this November since the passing of Albert William ''Al'' Trimble. His death in 1982, at the age of 54, was little noted in the newspaper that, at the time, covered much of Sioux territory, the Lakota Times. There was no obituary, merely a terse and cursory announcement of his death.

It must be noted that in the 1975 Oglala Sioux tribal election Trimble solidly defeated Richard ''Dick'' Wilson for the office of President. The Lakota Times was a strong supporter of Wilson, and although that election was several years before the Times began publishing, it was apparently the cause for the posthumous snub. Yet Trimble is viewed by many Oglalas as one of the tribe's greatest governmental leaders. This column serves as his obituary, long delayed.

He was born in Interior, S.D., in 1928, and was raised in Wanblee village on the Pine Ridge Reservation. He spent most of his school years on the reservation, but graduated from Haskell Institute in 1946. He served in the U.S. Army in the immediate post-World War II period.

Rising from clerical ranks, Trimble held several high-level positions in the BIA during a 20-year career. He served as superintendent of the Pine Ridge Reservation in the months leading up to AIM's Wounded Knee occupation in 1973. His efforts to stop the abuses of the OST President, Dick Wilson, particularly his alleged use of tribal program funds for personal purposes, led Wilson to press the Bureau for his removal. The BIA conceded, and he was transferred to that agency's offices in Albuquerque, N.M. There, in virtual exile, he decided to retire early from federal service and run on a reform ticket for the presidency of the Oglala Sioux Tribe.

In 1975, in a campaign marked by violent attacks on him and his family, Trimble won the election by a decisive margin, and set out on a campaign of healing and reform. First, measures had to be taken to change the tribal governance from a virtual dictatorship to one responsive and accountable to the electorate.

Under the new Indian Self-Determination Act, his first action was to secure tribal control of the reservation police, and set up citizen review panels to help curb abuse on their part. This action also served to disband the hated goon squads.

He decentralized the tribal government, giving the districts more autonomy and resources, and pushed the council into an annual round-robin schedule of meeting in each of the districts. To further their confidence, he secured funds to build district meeting centers throughout the reservation. The tribal seat at Pine Ridge he saw as a colonial outpost and he sought to move political control from Pine Ridge to the districts, and he envisioned a new tribal capital in the geographic center of the reservation. This, he felt, would also move the economic center inward for greater benefit to all tribal members. The new capital would be called Piya Wiconi, meaning ''New Beginning'' in the Lakota language.

But, sapped of strength by the strenuous schedule and a congenital heart condition, he had little energy to mount his re-election campaign, and lost his bid for a second term. However, the reforms he put in place were etched into the hearts of the people, and to this day they are loath to surrender them.

He lived to see the first building constructed on the high grassy hill where he envisioned Piya Wiconi would be located. The tribal college, Oglala Lakota College, would be headquartered in the modern structure that crowned the prairie horizon there. That institution keeps alive his dream of a new capital.

Although in his final months he served as executive director of the National Congress of American Indians, the greatest honor to him personally was the presidency of his tribe, and his greatest achievement was the reforms he instituted in tribal government there.

At the memorial dinner ending the customary year of mourning, Suzan Harjo summed up his life in a written tribute: ''We have lost a great leader as well as a great healer.''

Charles E. Trimble is an Oglala Lakota from the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. He was principal founder of the American Indian Press Association in 1970, and served as executive director of the National Congress of American Indians from 1972 - 78. He is president of Red Willow Institute in Omaha, Neb., and a columnist for Indian Country Today.²

     Also known as Sungnuni Wi.¹ Bessie Trimble was born on February 25, 1915 at Interior, Jackson Co., South Dakota, USA.¹ She was the daughter of John Guy Trimble and Lucy W. Randall. Bessie Trimble was employed after 1935 at State University of South Dakota, Brookings, South Dakota, USA.¹ She married John Lionel Cornelius Sr. after 1935.¹ Bessie Trimble was honor in 2000 at Indian Living Treasure Award; The winner of the 2000 Indian Living Treasure Award, Bessie was recognized for a lifetime of sharing her many talents and abilities with others.

Bessie fostered many artists, in a number of mediums, including oil painting, water colors, charcoal drawing, wood sculpture, and pottery. And she believed that art was also expressed through the use of fabrics in both sacred and profane presentations - quilts, wall hangings, clothing, and decorations. She was one of those responsible for the revival of the Lakota Star quilt in the 50's and 60's. Among the many talents she shared with friends and family were her gourmet cooking and outstanding clothing designs. When Blue Cloud Abbey was established in Marvin, SD, Bessie wove the cloth for and designed some of the Abbey vestments.
