! agent at Lapwai, Idaho Territory, writes
to Commissioner Smith as follows: Have
| the right, this being the Presbyterian
: agency and mission, to exercise such con-
troll over the morals of this people as will
enable me to prohibit the teaching of a
Catholic Father holding Catholic service
among them even though the Indians de-
sire it and clamor for it. To which, in
quiry and some others Commissioner Smith
= made answer Il have to say that the
fact that your agency is under charge oi
the Presbyterian Church does not warrant
any intolerant exercise of power and that
while it is desirable in all eases that mis-
sion work should be done under the direct
ion Of a religious body, yet where there
are persons having another faith and desire
e religious services of their own, it is not in
l. accordance with public policy or the spirit
of religious liberation to forbid OF hinder
- such services in any way
