hercnty savage, prodigal and careless char
acter of the Indians themselves. 10 take
narrow view of these circumstances, to segre-
gate one of them and name it as the cause, Is
the more dangerous because our present duty
is TO find a remedy for the evils existing and
the remedy to be effectual needs to be compre-
hcnsive, and by so much rs public sentiment
is misled the movement for a real remedy is
weakened.
The Indians. or some of them, are starving
there is no doubt Of that, but not because
they are not as we'll provided with food as they
should be. Destituton and hunger are not to

agents. Ii would be possible TO remove them
only By combining the Indians under lock and
KEY in an asylum where they would be fed and
clothed as cOnyictS are. 1t IL true that
we have not performed the promises made in
our early agreements as 10 ratiOns, but, how
ever much we are TO be blamed for breach of
faith there can be no doubt that the effect of
an fort to redeem those promises now would
be disastrous to every interest involved in the
Indians prosperity. To go on feeding anu
clothing them. except so far and 80 long as may
be necessary while they are being settled on
lands in severalty would be fatal kindness
II is true that their long list OF grievances con-
tains breaches Of treaty engagement on our
part which, at first glance. seem shocking ana

in 1851 until the Treaty Of 1889 we have Vlo-
