INDIAN IDEAS OF THE FUTURE.


Charles Gibson, the Indian poct
and writer, has the following to say
of the Indian and his idea OF Christ
mas, according to the Dallas News:
THE Indian knows nothing of
Christ child having been born on De-
cember 25, or any other month, to
save the so-called sinner. He knows
no sin; he says he came here with
out his own consent, and II he does
any SHINING in the body he sees no rea-
son why his soul should suffer for the
sins of the body. and If his soul Is
sent to hell for his sins. all right. let
it go to hell and suffer, as he will
know nothing about the matter nor
the suffering of his soul. He says
there Is no fear of hell In his make
up, as he Is nothing but an Indian M
I'll death removes him, and then he Is
lit for nothing but worm food. AS to
he happy hunting ground. he knows
nothing OF 1t. This happy hunting
ground has been gotten up by the
palefaces. The Indian says he does
not go to hell or heaven just as soon
as he dies; claims that the life that
other life by being bird. cat, dog,
wolf or most any animal that has
life. They are very careful about
abusing little animals as is pictured
by the white man. The old bucks
always cautions the little bucks re-
garding being cruel to animals Or
birds that are not to he eaten. The
indian believes there are certain ami
mails and birds that are for food and
certain animals and birds that
are not for food The little
| ones of the Indins are always careful
| about hurting "A cat, dog or anything
else wantouly, as they are told that
| after their death they are liable to
be dog. cat. bird or something OF
the kind. a full-blooded Indian never
kills or cripples anything he doesn't
| eat. The Indian on his native heath
is not as savage as he Is pictured.
| They were little savage on the
white man in early days, but, like
other men, when the conquerors foot
Is upon his neck he has surrendered.
Once In great while you will find an
| idlan who hates n white man, be-
cause Che Indian has been mistreateh
| by the white man. On his native
heath he has no religion; he says
that he was not placed upon the earth
by anyone: that he came out OF the
bowels of the earth-out OF what he
terms the navel OF the earth"
