INDIAN CHILDREN PROTECTED.

Washington. Sept. 2d--The Indian bureau has IN
dertaken prevent the continuance of what the
Commissioner considers has been abuse in the
Of procuring Indian children for attendance
non-reservaton Indian schools. by issuing cir
culars prohibiting the schools for sending can
vassers te the reservations to obtain business. The
government allows s167 year for every Indian at
tending those schools, and there has been much
rivalry among them IN procuring pupils Many of
the canvassers have carried children off at night
in order TO prevent the required examination, an
suited in the taking of numbers of children to
climates entirely unsuited them, with consequent
illness and death in many cases.
He characterizes some of the schools as ''herding
places" and finds that the food and the h-4ting
ARRANGEMENTS in them are calculated to cause and
encourage the growth of disease in manner i'm
possible under different conditions. The effect has
tendency to prejudice the parents against all eff
forts TO educate their offspring
The new orders provide that hereafter the agent
or superintendent on any given reservation shall
name the children who shall be sent away 10
school and to what schools they shall be sent
These officials are instructed not TO discourage
parents from putting their children in outside inst-
t1tions but rather TO guide those who are inclined
in that direction with a view to selecting the
most suitable schools Some of the schools have
made bitter complaints against the order but Sec
ratarv Garfield has sustained the Commissioner, and
they are thus left without recourse except TO the
President or Congress.
