Answer:

D. peace, tradition, and honesty.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chief Joseph's message in "An Indian's View of Indian Affairs" shows the Nez Percé value the importance of maintaining peace among everyone, be it among themselves or even after the arrival of the white men. Along with that, their traditions are also something they can't let go of, holding on firmly for their traditional ways of living to be left to them without any disturbance from the white men. And also, while narrating the stories and instances of broken promises that are a part of the reason why his people are dead and scattered, far from their home, he reiterates the need fr the government to maintain honesty in dealing with people. they have been promised so many things, the most important of which is that they will be given land and a safe place to dwell and live peacefully, but those are just "Good words (that) do not last long unless they amount to something".
