CARING FOR THE
NATIONS INDIAN WARDS

In dealing with the Indians our aim
should be their ultimate absorption into
the body OF our people But in many
cases this absorption must and should be
very slow. In portions Of the Indian
Territory the mixture Of blood has gone
on at the same time with progress In
wealth and education. so that there are
plenty OF men with varying degrees OF
purity OF Indian blood who are absolute
ly indiBtinguishable In point OF social.
political, and economic ability from their
white associates. There are other tribes
which have as yet made 40 perceptible
advance toward such equality. To try 70
force such tribes too fast is TO prevent
their going forward at all Moreover.
the tribes live under widely different
conditions. Where a tribe has made con
siderable advance and lives on fertile
farming soil il is possible TO allOt the
members lands in seyeralty much as is
the case with white settlers. There are
other tribes where such a course IS not
desirable. on the arid prairie lands the
effort should be 10 induce the Indians TO
lead pastoral rather than agricultural
lives. and 10 permit them 30 settle in
villages rather than 10 force them inio
isolation.
Educating the Red Man.
The large Indian schools situated re-
mote from any Indian reservation do a
special and peculiar work OF great i'm
portance. But. excellent though these
are, an immense amount OF additional
work must be done on the reservations
themselves among the old. and above all
among the young. Indians.
The first and most important step
toward The absorption OF the Indians IS
20 teach him 10 earn his living. yet ~ a.

each community all Indians must be-
come either filters OF the soil or stock
