"The Indian and Hi. problem.r

creditable contrast to civilians as In
dian agents by Ex-Commssione of In
dian Affairs Francis E. Leupp in his
book, just published b. Charles Scrib-
ner's Sons, The Indian and His Prob
lem" In referring to the many mis-
takes OF the old-;ime Indian agent
/ and the injustices that grew up under
that system, Mr.. Leupp pays fine
tribute to the officers of the army when
he says: "As relief from a certain
class OF political agents. who used to
be the curse of the service, a military
officer was godsend but his best in
fluence upon the Indians themselves
was found upon tribes still in very
backward state. There his independ-
ence. his promptness to shoulder re-
sponsibility, his exercise OF arbitrary
power in any emergency which called
for such demonstration, made a
strong impression on the wayward
spirits. whose only conception OF au-
thority was the ability to strike ef-
fectively and without delay and 10 com
pei good order by force when admoni-
tions had ceased to avail"
OF one army officer who was most
shamefully treated by calun1niators.
Mr.. Leupp writes: "a few years ago
there appeared in a Senate document
mass of ISLANDERS aimed at one of
the most excellent servants the govern
ment has ever had. He was retired
officer OF the regular army, who, be-
cause life full OF dangers, exposure
and hard work had left him with an
ailing body and lean purse, had peen
glad to accept for a short time an m
dian agency. He carried into MS du-
and energy which of old he had car
ried into battle; yet this document
charged him with conspiracy to rob
the Indians under him of lands and
money, with cruelty TO them in individ-
ual cases, and with several particularly
contemplate frauds upon the govern
ment. The President ordered a special
investigation, with the design, If the
charges proved true, not only of dis
gracing him publicly by removal from
his civil Office. but of bringing him
before court-martial which would
drum him out OF the army. The in
quiry, which consumed some months,
ended in complete triumph for the
accused officer. The falsehood and ma
Lightly of the charges were proved
from the mouths of the witnesses for
the prosecution and from public rec
ords accessible to every one. without
calling a single witness for the de-
tense. In the meantime q good mans
heart was nearly broken, and he suf-
fered a stroke of paralysis from the
suffering he had undergone at the
sheer thought that all his long career
of upright living and devoted service
had not shielded him against such in
dignity at its close. Nevertheless, the
authors of the criminal assault upon
an honored name have undergone no
punishment"

of Richmond. Ninety cents net.
Maurice Hewlett explains the publi-
cation by Charles Scribner's Sons of
lowing note, which precedes the intro
duction to the handsome little volume:
"A desire has been more than once
expressed that the letters upon affairs
at large which my friend Mr.. Senhouse
addressed to his friend Miss Sancha
Percival should be published in a con-
Venlent form. and as nobody can be
more anxious than myself that his
opinions should be widely known, I
have prevailed on my publishers to
allow me to extract them. together
with the necessary matter Of explana-
ton, from that true tale. Open Coun-
try in which ! was first allowed to
put them before the world. 1t is prop
er that 1 should now explain that the
introduction and the sections of the
text within square brackets are only
varied from what appeared in Open
Country SO far as is rendered neces-
sary by this present edition of the let
tiers. The letters themselves are re-
printed verbatim"
Mr. Hewlett explains in h.s introduc,3
ton that the letters reproduced by him
are written by man and woman still
living. For these reasons actual names
are withheld, and the writer's of the
letters appear as John Maxwell SEN
house and Sanchia Percival.
