Organized efforts to Christianize the people are
the business of the churches and of institutions
relying on them for sympathy and support.
Roman Catholics continue to draw about $780,
900 year from the government for their In
dian schools. Public sentiment will, we be-
lieve. insist that these appropriations shall
cease. Last year the American Missionary
Association received from the government for
Indian schools $21, 93o.37. This sum must
hereafter come from our churches. We are
confident that they will willingly assume the
burden and show their willingness by increaS-
ing the smount Here is afforded an opportu-

great principle and to affirm loyalty to lU.-Ine
Congregationalist
The Congregationalists at their last
great gathering, following the Methodist
and other Protestant denominations, had
passed resolution similar to that passed
by the Episcopal General Convention.
Thus every Protestant denomination,
guided by spirit of true patriotism, has
voluntarily relinqqished the important
aid heretofore received from the public
treasury for the support of it's schools,
and although by this act their churches
assume burden hard to bear, each de-
nomination will hereafter support it's
own schools without public aid. This
wise action will commend itself to the
Judgment of thoughtful and patriotic
men, whatever may be their creed.
The Roman Catholic church is the only
one which has thus far taken no action
in this matter, and is the only one which
is now receiving public support for it's
schools. 1t is hoped and believed that it
will follow the noble example of other
Christian churches.
