A REMEDY,

(From~'Our Indian Bureau
System, by Joseph w. Latimer. }
What is remedy for all this 2
All true friends of the Indian, who
are interested in him as a free
born man, know that the Indians
unrestricted citizenship; his child
ren in our public schools; and .
just division of his property 90
long promised) can all be safely
and intelligently accomplished.
All Indians should at once have
unrestricted citizenship, as have
all our native born humans, with
all rights in our established Courts.
Many tribes are now entitled to
full allotment and are capable of
handling their own property, with
the ordinary protection Gas all citi-
zens) of our Courts. When neces
sary. as incompetency may re
quire, provide separate legal
trusteeships of the Indians prop
erty individual or tribal, as either
may be the logical need) admin
istered by the Courts having jnis-
diction over such citizen Indian,
as similar trusts are now admin
istered in our Courts. Abolish the
segregated, wasteful Indian Schools
and put the Indian in our public
schools, the same as all other
races.
Can anyone seriously claim that
the Indian, as any other race, or
person, should not have, or that
ne would be unsafe with, the pro
lection of our Courts, both in bis
person and propertya Shall we
longer tolerate that our System
alone be Judge, Jury and Sheriff
over the Indian and his property,
with its own private Court"
which has its own private laws Of
procedure9 Shall our System con-
tinue it's own exclusive probate
Court" for administering and dis
tributing tie dead Indians estate Z
From neither of these Courts is
there any appeal, or change of
venue, and at the Courts" pleas
ure the Indian is heard or not.
Where, in our scheme of Govern
ment. is justification for any of
this9
Clearly necessary at once is q
complete reversal of the present
methods of our Indian Bureau
System (so evilly ft,stered for the
past thirty years. through new
Executives who shall have an
honest and efficient purpose to
