I'm guessing the letter is L, and sadly, that provides no assistance...I don't know any of these!!!

1. Mount Logan is the highest mountain in what country?
No idea. Canada?

2. The Battle of the Little Bighorn was fought between the 7th U.S. Cavalry and a combined force of Cheyenne and what other “L” Indian tribe?
Ummmmmmmmmm no....I can't think of any L tribe so unless I make one up I can't answer. I went to foxwoods this weekend so unless it's the mashantucket peqots, I don't know.

2. How many Lagrange Points are there in the Earth-Moon system?
Ooh a how many question, I can randomly pick a number. My favorite number, 8

4. The Boston Cannons, Philadelphia Barrage, and Denver Outlaws are all teams in the Major League of what sport?
I don't know of any major leagure sports that start with L. I don't know of any minor leagure sports that start with L. I don't know any of these teams. They sound rough. And all I can think of thanks to a Gilmore girls rerun is skeet shooting. I have no answer.

ANSWERS

1. Mount Logan is the highest mountain in what country?

Canada. And it's the 2nd highest mountain in North America.

2. The Battle of the Little Bighorn was fought between the 7th U.S. Cavalry and a combined force of Cheyenne and what other “L” Indian tribe?

Lakota. The Lakota are the westernmost group of Sioux.

2. How many Lagrange Points are there in the Earth-Moon system?

Five. They are points where objects can remain balanced between gravitational and orbital forces of larger bodies. There would also be five in the Earth-Sun system and pretty much any other two large bodies. Here is a good diagram:
