THE INDIANS.
Special Attention Called to Secretary
Bliss Report on Five Civil
lied Tribes.

The special attention of the congress Is
called to that part of the report of the sec
rotary of the interior in relation to the Five
Civilized tribes. 1t is noteworthy that the
general condition of the Indians shows
marked progress. But one outbreak of a
serious character occurred during the year
and that among the Chippewa Indians of
Minnesota, which. happily. has been sup
pressed.
While it has not yet been practicable to
enforce all the provisions of the act of
June IS. 1885. for the protection of the
people of the Indian territory. and for other
PURPOSES il is having a Salutary effect
Upon the nations composing the Five
tribes. The Dawes commission reports that
the most gratifying results and greater
advance toward the attainment of the OBJ
jects OF the government have been secured
in the past year than in any previous
year. 1 can not too strongly indorse the
recommendation of the commission and or
the secretary of the interior for the ne
cessity of providing for the education of
the 30.0O0 white children resident in the In
dian Territory.
