Sunday, October IL. 1885.

AMONG the important results of the
introduction of a new broom in the
Indian bureau, is the alleged discoy-
cry that, while the government pays
enough money every year for Bibles
TO supply every Indian with half a
dozen copies, many Of these much
abused wards of the nation are unable
TO obtain as much AS single copy. In
all probability this will account for
the restlessness and turbulence OF
many of the tribes. Their hunger for
Bibles becomes at times overpowering
and in sheer desperation they break
out of the reservations and go scalp
hunting. Now that the cause of so
much trouble is discovered, measures
will of course be taken by the admin
istrstion to make sure that, whatever
else may be stolen by the agents and
traders, the supply Of Bibles shall
al ways be sufficient to satisfy the most
eIacting of the tribes. The depreda-
tors will have to keep their hands off
the Bibles.
