Because Washington send General Anthony Wayne to put down the Native American resistance by force.
During the presidency of George Washington (1789-1797), tensions between American settlers and Natives increased primarily for one reason: still more settlers passed from the American East Coast into the 'wild western' lands beyond the Appalachian Mountains, thereby increasing contact (and friction) with the resident Natives. This movement was due in part to the intentional encouragement of westward settlement by the United States government, particularly in light of the continuing British presence in what was at the time largely called the 'Northwest Territory.'

During George Washington's presidency, Little Turtle and Blue Jacket led raids against American settlers primarily in the Northwest Territory, which encompasses parts of present-day Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. These Native American leaders were prominent figures in the resistance against American expansion into their lands during the 1790s, particularly around the time of the Northwest Indian War. Their efforts were part of broader conflicts between Native American tribes and American settlers, as settlers encroached on indigenous territories.

George Washington recognized the complexities of the conflicts between Native Americans and settlers, often advocating for a policy of assimilation and land negotiations.

However, Washington's administration also supported westward expansion, leading to military actions against Native Americans when negotiations failed. Ultimately, this dual approach contributed to ongoing tensions and the loss of Native lands.
