INDIAN POLICY.
American Bar Association Up-
holds Severalty Act as Wise
Measure.

ST. Louis, Sept. 25.-The final session
Of the convention Of the American Bar
association was occupied today in re-
ceiving committee reports, the election
OF officers, and the transaction Of
routine business.
The report of the special committee
on Indian legislation embodies the con-
clusion that Gin the majority of In
dian reservations the prompt carving
out of the provisions Of the severalty
act , approved Feb. s, 1887, is apparent
ly the best practical solution of the In
dian problem The report states:
Our policy toward the Indian is neither
wise nor humane. We require Of him no
labor. We feed him and allow him to
spend his time in listless idleness. This
naturally leads to vice, degeneracy and
extinction Yet he can work. We think
that in the greater portion of the coun :
try the time. and circumstances are ripe
for the applicat ton of the severalty act
In the arid lands of the southwest a diff
ferent problem confronts us. I'VE think
that thruout this arid region the federal
courts should be given jurisdiction of all
litigation, civil and2 criminal, to which an
Indian is a. party. -.
The special committee on penal laws
and prison discipline reported favorably
on the resolution submitted to it two
years ago, relating to the proposition to
establish a laboratory in the department
of Justice at Washington for the study
Of the criminal, pauper and defective
classes.
