TREATED UNFAIRLY.
A. q. Clark Of Rosebud, s. o. Makes
Protest.

Rosebud. s. d.. April 3.-The New
York Tribune OF March &c contains
letter from A. II. Clark. missionary at
the reservation here. dated February
%, In which he complains that the In
dian department IN not treating the IN
dams fairly I'm the matter OF reductions
from their annuities To pay Tor edu-
cation OF those Indian children whose
parents elect to have them educated IN
sectarian schools rather than In the
government schools. He quotes Indian
Commissioner Leupp to the effect that
the Indians may contribute To Sec
tartan schools for their own educa-
ton and the amount they contribute
may be deducted from their annuities
whenever they understand clearly that
they are paying for their own educa-
ton outside OF the government schools.
A telegram OF instruction from the
commissioner TO the Indian agent at
Rosebud says: Payment OF contract
(for scctarian schooling) VIII be made
out OF all trust and treaty funds named
In the petition To the extent OF the
shares OF the petitioners and petition
crs' children. the total of which viii
be deducted from the total amount
OF said funds whenever "A distribution
II mad. thus reducing To such an ex-
tent the shares OF all Rosebud In
diuns"
Mr.. Clark gathers from this that the
payments TO the sectarian schools are
To- be taken out OF the trust and treaty
funds and charged up to the Indians
regardless OF whether they attend sec
tartan schools or not. This provokes
n protest from Mr.. Clark, who wants
to know III there Is n political or CO.

sufferance OF this wrong"

Clark. In which he says: Mr.. Leupp
called on me last summer ut Sioux
Falls and assured me that everything
would be aboveboard and fair here
after"
when these communications were
brought TO the attention OF Commits
sioner Leupp, he replied. outlining the
plan OF utilizing the Indian trust funds
I'm payment OF education ut scctnrian
schools and criticising quite severely
Mr.. Clark and Bishop Hare for riiscon-
ceiving oT misstating the plan OF the
department. He contends that IL Is
rtlli the purpose OF the department 90
allow the Indians. when they desire
TO contribute 10 their own education
I'm the sectarsa ssSools, but that IL Is
not the intention OF the government
that any one who does not wish To 40
contribute shall be compelled To do SO
In view of this position assumed by
Mr. Lcupp. his telegram quoted above
does not clearly state his position. He
does not intend TO make every Indian
pay pro rata for the sectarian edu-
cation enjoyed by comparatively few
althoui 4 ne does not make his inten-
ton very distinct and clear In his tcle-
gram. This much. at least, can be
stated: that when the balance sheets
are made up II will no doubt appear
10 be tho preference OF rae president
and the policy OF the commissioner
TO avoid carefully any discrimination
In favor OF or against any sect engaged
In teaching and preaching TO the In
dams.
