Touching the general discussion going on
Just now in regard 10 the management OF In
dian affairs, the point is made in behalf of
the Department OF the Interior that that
branch OF the government should not be held
responsible FOR the alleged malfeasances aud
shortcomings Of the Indian a gents, since OFF,
GERS OF That class are appointed, not by the
Department, but By the various religious de-
nominations OF the country which have or
are supposed 10 have the spiritual and tenn
poral welfare of the red man particularly at
heart More correctly speaking, they are ap-
Pointed, pro gor7n1, by the Department. but
this upon the recommendation of the several
churches as stated; and such recommenda-
tion Is invariably considered sufficient guar
anty of the fitness Of the appointee, who gets
his commission thereon without farther ex-
animation or other endorsement, political or
otherwise. The case OF Agent SayiIIe, at
present the target of a very hot fire. is cited
as one which exactly and forcibly illustrates
this principle or rule. This gentleman, IL
appears by the record, had the endorsement
OF The authorized representatives of the
Prote- INT Episcopal church. and upon tina,
endorseiI- ut and recommendation alone he
received his appointment and entered upon
his duties. The rest the public knows, OF
doubtless soon will know.
This state of facts should, and with every
lair-minded person doubtless Will, go far to-
ward relieving the Department from direct
responsibility in the premises, and especially
II me particular case under notice. A. the
- r:le time, however, 1T shows most conclu-
- y the folly or worse than folly of the
T.aetice which places so delicate and dan
~ous a power as the appointing or naming
UGH agents In the hands OF any irrespon-
