The Society Of American
Indians and the Indian
Bureau.

The Quarterly American Indian
Magazine in its last issue contains
some very spicy debates between
DR.. Montezuma, the noted Apache,
and Rev. Sherman Coolidge, ex-
president Of the society.
Doctor MonteZuma paid his re-
spects to the Indian Bureau as u.s.
ual in his straightforward and
drastic way.
Mr.. Coolidge undertook to de-
fend the Indians, who are employ
ed by the Indian office, by saying
<that an Indian who is employed
by the government can be loyal to
his race as we'll as to the Indian
bureau of the government.
In reply to this Doctor Monte
yuma made the following state
ment: "A hirellng only that is to
do service. AS a hireling he is
not himself, he cannot be. There
are Indians in tie service, and
thas is what / am trying. to eS-
.<p1ess Ire ar e,>aHnot supposed 70
do anything that will embarass
the Indian department, not only
the whites but everybody. If |
went into the Indian service !
would shut my mouth on good
many things>''
The statement made by Doctor
Montezuma is as true as gospel.
There is not member of an In
dian tribe who resides on an IN
dian reservation who does not
know that an Indian who is en-
ployed in the Indian service can
look forward to immediate dis
missal if he undertakes to criticise
an Indian superintendent even If
the latter commits a violation OF
United States law
This has been the history of the
policy which has been followed by
the Indian bureau for fifty years
and more, and more especially dur
ing the past fifteen or twenty
years. u
II an Indian wishes to retain his
position ia the government Indian
service he simply becomes a ma
chine, and must wink at all kinds
Of frauds that are perpetrated up
on Indian tribes even it this comes
within his knowledge.
It. is true that few, but very
few. Indians. have shown their IN
deper d.nce by not hesitating to
exnose the fraudulent acts of some
of their superior officers. but these
persons did not remain long IN the
Indian service thereafter.
1t has been the policy Of the In
dian Office to sustain its superIn-
tendents regardless of the crltl-
cisms of Indians who were pre-
pared to prove what they charged,
and even the charges Of congress-
men have some times been ignored,
and this policy has not been
changed even by the present Con-
missioner of Indian Affairs. 80
that Doctor Montezuma is right In
his contentious.
But without regard to the de-
,fects of the present policy of the
Indian Office Of sustaining its sup
erintendents regardless Of what is
right, the adjustment of the In
dian bureau should be we'll con
sidered before any radical. steps

to have the Indian office thorough
