The American Indian.

There liz no more interesting proof OF
the Indians adaptability to modern
ways than that the military stations Of
the west have lost their former impor
lance AT the present time there IL
not single army post maintained east
of the Missouri river for fear of i'm
Indian outbreak.
When Europeans settled on the
American continent the Indian popula-
ton within what is now the United
States was estimated to be aboNt
100000, In 1885 the commissioner of
Indian affairs issued a report which
showed that>there were 100000 Of the
race in this country. There are now
about 100000.
But, while the latest estimates may
convey the impression that the race Is
diminishing in number. careful inves-
tigation shows that there has really
been amalgamation on very extern
sive scale. This has been particularly
noticeable In Oklahoma among the
Five Civilized Tribes. Red Man.
