No INSURANCE AGAINST IyDIASs.- A
great number of bills have been introduced
In the House this session for the relief Of uer-
sons who have suffered from Indian deureda.
tions. Although Congress has never fairly
adopted policy of paying these claims, a
certain number Of them have at every session
been allowed, and the aggregate sum thus
taken from the Treasury has been eonsidera-
bic. This session claims of this nature
amount to many millions Of dollars, one sin
gle bill of this kind providing for the appro-
priation Of more than 100000. The
House committee on Indian affairs. in eonsi5-
ering this subject, has agreed 10 a resolution
which will prevent it from reporting any Of
these bills favorably. At its meeting Prof
Seelye moved that il was the sense Of The
committee that 10 claims for Indian depreda-
tions ought to be paid, except in cases where
the United States was made responsible for
them by treaty stipula,ions This resolu-
tiOn, after being thoroughly discussed by
the committee, was passed. The theory
on which this action is based is that the
United States Government is in no sense an
insurance company; that persons who settle
upon the frontier do 20 knowing the risk they
incur, and because they expect TO be remu-
nerated for any loss or suffering to which
they may be subjected In this respect they
are like persons who settle in a miasmatic
swamp, or who n other wars incur risks of
life or property. IN certain eases, Indians
who have been placed on reservations have
been promised, in treaties made with them,
protection from depredations by other In
dicns, and few such cases as these may be
made exceptions to the rule adopted by ths
committee. This action Of the committee. it
will be seen. Will make it wholly useless for
anyone interested IL one Of these claims for
Indian depEedar.ons to attempt 10 press l. be-
fore Congress at this :, ssiOn.
