Acting commissioner Upshaw, of the
Indian Office, has issued the following
letter of instructions to agents upon the
various reservations, where under the
existing laws and treaty stipulations,
the allotment of lands in severalty
may be made: The business of allotting
and patenting lands to Indians should
be pressed with the utmost vigor. The
Indian is awakening TO the Importance
of individual ownership in soil, and
agents must foster and encourage this
feeling by all the means in their power.
The Indian asks for "paper title" for
his land, and with that in his possession
he has some guarantee that the land he
improves will not be taken from him.
The Indian must be impressed with the
fact that if they desire to make their
stay on the reservation sure and stable
they must take up the lands and get a
regular title to them from the gyvern-
ment. Mr.. Upshaw said that to-day
many tribes are now as clamorous fol-
allotments and patents as they were
formerly tenacious of holding all the
lands in common.
