Chief Seathl accepted the white man's offer because he knew that if he didn't, they would march into their territory and occupy it forcibly.
Explanation:
- This is a question from "The Simple Philosophy" chapter.
- Chief Seathl was approached by an American Chief who expressed an interest in purchasing their land in exchange for allowing them to live happily.
- It sounded fair to him because the Red Indians' rights to be honored had lapsed.
- Chief agrees to the offer on the premise that his folks be free to roam around their property and visit their ancestors' graves.
