on the road has suffered a bad smash up.

worry lest No. .0004 comes along and

Do you think it wise for the L. S.
government to employ an Indian police
in part to cooperate with white sherlffs
in the execution of laws in which In,
dams are involved.
ANSWER.
Doubtless there are such circumstan
ces, for example, where the Indians are
so located, or so low in the scale of civil
lization, that such police woul | hardly
be practicable. But there is, l think
to better method of governing Indians
than through Indians. It is the same
in war and in peace measures.
Ia 1872 1 instituted an Indian police
under pay among. the Navajas of New
Mexico. The result was that stolen
stock was very soon returned to the
owners, and the percenta re of depreda
tons by these Indians were diminished
seven fold. And | believe it was false
economy that caused its abolition after,

the interesting incidents of history that
you embody therein you drop this pro-
phetic remark: judging from the past,

While | agree with you that there is
danger of u conflict in at least two local,

ment. still l think our authorities can
and will take proper preventive meas

that are always consequent upon an In

am driven from time, to make very brie
answer to yaur several questions. YOU
