ANNUAL REPORT OF INDIAN COM
MISSIONER MORGAN.
Who Has jurisdiction Over Buxxard's
Bay Largo Number OF Suits Com
menoed Against the Government.


Bay Large Number Of Suits Com
menoed Against the Government.
WASHINGTON, Oct. issioner
Morgan of the Indian bureau in his an
nual report to the secretary of the interior,
says of the Indian question generally that
there has been for ten years or more pro-
gress in the right direction and the out
look for the future is encouraging. 1t has
become, says the commissioner, the set
tied policy of the government to break up
reservations, destroy tribal relations, set
tie Indians upon their own homesteads,
incorporate them into national life and
deal with them not as nations or tribes or
bands, but as individual citizens.
The American Indian is become the In
dian American. A public school system
is being rapidly provided whereby every
accessible Indian boy and girl of school
age is to be afforded an opportunity of ac-
quiring the rudiments of an English edu-
cation and the elements of an honorable
calling. The Indians themselves are COM
ing to understand the present policy of
the government, and are showing an in
creasing readiness, and even desire, to ad-
Just themselves to it. During the past
year have had personal interviews with
prominent chiefs and representative In
dians everywhere, and, almost without
exception, they have pleaded for more and
better schools.
Great Improvements, he continues, have
been made at the government industrial
schools. Competent instruction is now
given to boys in blacksmithing, broom
making, carpentering, dairying, farming,
fruit culture. harness making, printing,
tailoring, tinsmithing shoemaking, stock
raising, wagon making and wheelwright-
ing, and girls all the orninary duties of
housekeeping. Upon the subject of In
dians in the public schools, the commits
sioner says that, believing that the public
schools are the most effective means of
Americanizing our foreign population he
is desirous of bringing the Indian school
system iuto relation with that of the pub
lie schools. Not only so, but wherever
possible he is placing Indian pupils in the
public schools.
The commissioner favors compulsory
education and upon the subject says: am
in favor of compelling every Indian child
of suitable age and health, for whom ac-
commodations are provided, to attend
school ten months out of the twelve. A
general law, however, could not now be
applied, for the simple reason tnat school
accommodations are provided for less than
half the children of school age. The ques-
/ ion is not so much one of filling the
schools as it is in finding room for the
pupils With few exceptions, every res
lvation school is crowded, and hundreds
OF children who are willing to 20 to school
are prev nted by want Of proper accom-
lnodations.
