EDUCATING THE INDIANS.

Tho Tucson Citizen sees a brighter
future for the Indians. Il says:
For two generations the Indian
wards OF the government were alter.
nately coddiod and robbed. They had
no votes or taxes, they were pennod
on reservation and forbidden 20
travel. and were told that they were
only good when dead. The agency
system was continued not for their
sake, but for the profits Of the aFeats
anG supply contractors a not ignoble
race was pauperized boy "a monthly
issue of groceries and beef on the
hoof
Indian Commissioner Jones, Jus,
before his retirement a few days ago
reported a different condition today
one Indian OF every six Is In school
Tribal lands are being sold for their
owners benefit. reservation lines are
obliterated, the Indians are free "a
10 whore they please, and are Cit
gems among citizens. Only old and
helpless Indians can live without
working. The newly chosen commits
sioner. Mr. Leupp, will pursue the
same means for the seine end Of self
support
For Indians as we'll as white men
tho best policy Is that which gives
every man a square deal and then
expects him 70 look out for himself

The Kansas City Star says that the
objections to- the admission of New
Mexico aud Arizona as one state are
uutwoighod by the practical aaydn
tagos ct dealing with tho matter 90
ihis time Political rxigpncics have al
ways determined the admission OF new
states. In order o. secure action ON
the claims Of Oklahoma aud Indian
Territory % has seemed necessary To-
take mp also the question of the future
of the other two territories.
Another important reason for set

would end the agitation in favor of
separate statehood for Arizona and

Naturally local pride la the two
territories is against consolidation But
the most powerful influences are the
special private interests that hope 20

These are DOING everything possible

while the essence OF the religion OF
Jesus Christ Is service for the sake Of

that OF Christ. and all people by their
