INDIAN SCHOOLS.
They Form the subject OF Discussion In
tho senate.

WASHINGTON, July 24-ln the Senate
consideration Of the Indian appropria-
ton bill was resumed. An amendment
which provoked discussion was one in
creasing an appropriation Of 100000
for the support OF Indian schools to
$3.50, 1000.
Senator Vest tMo.) opposed the
amendment as the Introduction OF
system intended To abolish denomina-
tional education among the Indians. lie
spoke OF an official visit which he had
made TO an Indian agency seven or
eight years ago and OF his observation
OF the work Of the Catholic church in
educating tho Indians. A school build
ing which had been erected there by
the Catholic church was then standing
unoccupied because the agent would not
permit the Jcsuits TO teach any OF the
Indian children. His opinions on the sub
iect were fixed. The Jesuits had succeed
ed better than any other people living in
the education OF Indians. Whatever pre-
judicc-if that was the proper word
he might have against the Society OF
Jesus, he had to say that much as an
educated Protestant. Senator Vest ex-
planned his position to be: That II the
Catholics were doing better In educating
the Indians than other denominations
he was in favor Of the Catholics and
that IL the Presbyterians or the Eaptists
were doing better he was in favor OF
them.
The discussion was continued by Sen
ator Teller (Col.) who also spoke Of the
Catholics as the most successful edu'
Gators OF Indians; and by Senator Jones
(Ark.) who gave figures to show the
great difference in expense between the
Government schools for Indians and
those carried on by the religious denom-
nations. The cheap contract schools
ought to be maintained, and no feeling
OF sectarian prejudice ought to be
allowed to operate against church
simply because it had shown DISPOSE
ton to go forward and spend more
money and exercise more thought
and labor and diligence in the
good work than other churches or de-
nominations had done.
