In May 1875, Lakota delegations headed by Red Cloud, Spotted Tail, and Lone Horn traveled to Washington in an attempt to persuade President Grant to honor existing treaties and stem the flow of miners into their lands. The Native Americans met on various occasion with Grant, Secretary of the Interior Delano, and Commissioner of Indian Affairs Smith. He told them on May 27 that Congress was ready to resolve the matter by paying the tribes $25,000 for their land and resettling them into Indian Territory. The delegates refused to sign such a treaty, with Spotted Tail saying about the proposal:
"When I was here before, the President gave me my country, and I put my stake down in a good place, and there I want to stay. … You speak of another country, but it is not my country; it does not concern me, and I want nothing to do with it. I was not born there. … If it is such a good country, you ought to send the white men now in our country there and let us alone."
