a NEW INDIAN POLICY.

Radical Changes to be Made III the
Management of Our Indian Affairs.
WASHINGTON, Dec. The Indian COM
mittee of the house will in due time report
he bill to transfer the Indian Office to the
war department. The measure will re-
ceive the unanimous support OF the demo
crat members of the committee, and one
republican will also support it and possi-
bly, two The bill has not yet been entirely
perfected, but the general outlines
have been agreed upon. 1t will make
some radical changes in the management of
our Indian affairs. The practice of trea:-
ing with the various Indian tribes as sep
arate nations will he abandoned. and the
government will assert its authority over
the InSians simply as the wards of the
nation They will first be made to respect
this authority, and then. as an inducement
to good behavior and progress IN the
civilizing arts, the right to hold property
as individuals ana acquire citizenship will
be held out to them The bill will pro-
vide either for the extension of the laws of
the United States and tribunals to enforce
them, or provision will be made for the
framing of laws specially adapted to the
exigencies Of the new order of things. To
enforce the laws it will be necessary to
have a police. and this the army is to
supply. The entire management of the
new system, save the administration of
judicial functions, will be committed TO the
war department, and all its agents will be
selected from the army. They will be
amenable to military regulations, and
| thus the chances of fraud upon the
| pavernmaut as waiI as iuiusflea m the
Indians will. it is thought. be greatly less
ened The cardin-l principle of the new
Indian policy that is to be inaugurated by
this bill is exact Justice to the Indians, and
firm administration of the law for their
protection as we'll as for their restraint.
1t is believed by the speaker and the
chairman of the committee on Indian af-
| fairs that such law can be framed as will
meet the general appreciation OF the house
and that it viii pass the senate
