INDIAN RACE NOT
REGARDED AS HOSTILE.
DR.. Lymon Abbott. at Indian Conference,
Points Out Where There Condition
May Be Bettered.

LAKE MoNoNK. N. Y, Oct. l5-At
yesterdays session Of the Indian confer
ence, Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbott, chair
man Of the business committee, pre-
sented the report OF platform for dis
cussion and adoption by the conference
as follows:
Great progress has been made in deal
ing with the Indian race in this country.
The nation no longer regards them as
hostile people or even as a foreign peo-
pie. The reforms inaugurated under
President Grant have been carried for
ward toward their logical results; the
policy of disseminating the reservation
system had been accepted and in many
of the reservations the land had been
allotted in severalty and the surplus
land sold for the benefit of the Indians
Less money is expended in rations which
pauperize and much more in schools
which prepare for self support.
The government has recognized the
value of the education of the Indian
woman, In their homes and in the do
mestic arts, and has appropriated in
creased sums to carry on this anamo-
lous partnership between the nations
and the churches has been discontinued,
and now only one UNCONVENTIONAL body
looks to the government for aid in sup
port OF its schools.
The schools of the other denominations
are supported by themselves and the
government itself has organized and is
carrying on with comparative efficiency
the work of the similar education of al
Indian children of school age on the res
! ervations.A
! Nevertheless. the Indian problem is
still far from solution. A needlessly
expensive system is maintained to care
for the Indian, and In a large measure
to care for party and political favorites
The schools, the clerks in the bureau al
washington and the agency physicians
have been brought under the civil ser
vice law, but with these exceptions tkt
Indian bureau remains a political ma.
chine, subject to change in all its per.
