INDIAN SPEAKER 1 — . 1 Samuel Miller, Last of Mohicans, Spoke at the Zion’s Lutheran Church. » ON LAST EVENING 111 Interests of Indians, Their Education and Christianization. The lecture on the American Indians given lant evening at the Zion's Lutheran church by Samuel Miller, him self a lull blooded Indian, u mem lx r of tin* Mohican tribe, wa- very interesting. Mr. Miller is from the Sloe! bridge Indian reservation. Wi.ieonsiu and Is finely educated, being a grade ate of Carlisle university. Pennsylvania. lie Is also a iiue Christian gentleman. He and his family are mom hers of the Lutheran congregation and liia lectures over the country are lie Ing given in the interests of the mission there. Mr. Miller lias been strong ly influenced to study for tlte ministry and then to devote himself to mta-dtm work, but tills lie lias not yet fully determined. _ He tidd of the Indians in general and of his particular tribe. He stated that people in general bail a w rong impres sion of tlie Indian that lie is not like lie was four hundred years ago. any more titan the whites are like they weri/at that iime. Ho stated that the Indians have been wrongly treated by the whites, and tlm! their various uprisings have lieon due to injustice, and wrong treatment on the part of officers as well as others, and not to a rebellious nature. He spoke of the great good education is doing thein. and also of the good that Christianity is accomplishing for them. Ha thinks, however, that liw lanitoU employed by the white, that of confining them to reservations. Is wrong and not for Dullest interests of tlte country in general. instead of allowing them to mix with others and thus merge the civilly ing influences, they are segregated Hi states that they should he given tinsame opportunities for education that the whites are. a tiling which is given all foreigners who come hern, and denied the indiuns. who are here at home in their own country. While here. Mr. .Miller is a guest of the Rev. 11. Wchmeyer and family. HASTEN WARNED When Bluff ton Officers Went After Foreigners They Had Disappeared.
