Could not turn myself in bed without help. I was under the care of four doctors, and they gave me up. Then Mr. Mills, the druggist, persuaded my husband to try a bottle of Milks Emulsion.

Indians Coming Into Their Own

Hastening to Acquire Citizenship as Soon as Competent, Says Cato Seiis. GREAT PROGRESS IH MEARS Not Only Numerically and In Wealth, but Also In Education and In. dustry—lndividual Deposits Show Big'lncrease. Washington.—Answering a criticism on the legal status of the American Indian as contained In resolutions recently adopted by the Women’s Civic center of 'San Diego, Cal., Cato Sells, commissioner of Indian affairs, in a lengthy letter sets forth the general progress of the American Indians under his administration. Mr. Sells is decidedly opposed to the withdrawal of federal supervision over all Indians at this time. The result of such a step, he points out, would be that a large number of did or incompetent Indians would soon be fleeced of their property and thrown upon the states as paupers and mendicants, and public protest against neglected conditions yvould surely follow. “Confusion as to the legal status of the Indian,” says Mr. Sells, “rests largely with those who have not studied the subject. The general allotment act of 1887, providing for the allotment of lands in severalty, with the amending provisions of the Burke act of 1906, made the issuance of a fee-simple patent the primary legal requirement for citizenship of Indians, but also provided for . the citizenship of any Indian by his voluntary separation from tribal relations and the adoption of the habits of clvlllzeu life. The later act o/ June 25, 1910, also provides for the allotment of lands to Indians from the public domain with the Issuance of a fee patent as provided for in the ciise of reservation allotments.

Become Citizen,. “Under my administration the In* dtan bureau has made special effort to extend. citizenship to the Indians and prepare them for its duties and responsibilities. In the declaration of policy issued April 17, 1917, I announced that every Indian as soon as found to be competent to transact his own business affairs would be given full control of his property and have all his land and moneys turned over to him, after which he would no longer be a ward of the government. In furtherance of this movement I instructed the superintendents of the various reservations as follows: *You are requested to submit to this office a list of all Indians of one-halKor less Indian blood, who are able-bodied and mentally competent, twenty-on, years of age or over, together with a description of the land allotted to said Indians, and the number of the allotment. It is Intended to issue patents In fee simple to such Indians.’ “Under this broadened policy Indians, both mixed and full bloods, are being released from government supervision as rapidly as their condition warrants. Whenever an Indian Is found to be as competent as the average white man to transact the usual vocations of life, he is given a patent fee, full control of Mb lands and mom eys, and made a citizen of the United States. About 225,000 allotments of land have been made to Indians, and during the last three years 10,956 feesimple patents have been issued, or 1,062 more than In the ten years preceding.” Mr. Sells has gone further In this direction and has taken the position that the citizenship of Indians should not be based upon their ownership of lands, tribal or in severtilty, in trust or in fee, but upon the fact that they are real Favorable report Jias been made, on a bill introduced In congress having for its purpose the of citizenship on all Indians but retaining control of the estates al incompetents. •- Bays Restriction Is Wlie, -I am tonvtoced of the win-

dom of this restriction, and tiat competency must precede the control of property, otherwise great injustice would follow to thousands of Indians. In my last annual report I said in this connection; “ ‘Of the large number of Indians still under the supervision of this bureau, it should be understood that more than 75,000 are situated practically the same as the reservation Navajo, Hualapai, Hopi and Apache, whose property cannot now, nor for many years to come, be wisely allotted. There are thousands of fullbloods and near full-bloods whose personal possessions and ■ prospects are suggestive of a capacity for independent self-support, but who are not qualified, to withstand the competitive tests that would follow a withdrawal of federal guidance. To abandon these at the point in their progress where elementary requirements are shaping into self-reliance and a comprehension of practical methods, would be to leave them a prey to every kind of unscrupulous trickery that masks itself in the conventions of civilization.’

“Few things have been more obstructive to Indian welfare than the professional agitator who claims the abolishment of governmental supervision as the salvation of the Indian. “The Indians are growing in knowledge and general intelligence. Threefourths of their children eligible for attendance are enrolled in some school, federal, state or mission. Nearly two-thirds of their entire population speak English and about one-half read and write English. Their gain In the use of civilized speech has been remarkable in the' last seven years. “Too much has been said about Indian school graduates going back to the blanket. Any assumption that more than a negligible percentage of such students are non-progresslve is unwarranted? In some instances Where pupils not long in school have returned to backward home conditions the results have been disappointing, but by no means an entire loss. If these boys and girls carry no more than a speaking use of English into homes still under the thrall of barbaric ignorance, they have started a lifting force and planted imperishable seeds of civilization. Considering the effect of previous environment, habits and prejudice,- the school-trained In-

dian compares favorably with the average white student whose home surroundings as a rule are generally to his advantage. Evidence of Progress. “The Indian’s progress is too frequently measured by his garb. We want the Indian to cut his hair and wear citizen’s clothes. We urge him to live in a whife man’s house, but if he does not entirely and promptly respond tn all of these respects it is not proven that he is not a progressive man. Sometimes young men returning from our schools to the reservations resume certain outward forms of tribal fashion as a matter of expediency or social deference to their elders, but their activities, show what they are; their farming, their stockraising, the homes they build and*the way they furnish them, and their desire to have their children go 'to school are the bes{ evidences of their progress. “The social and domestic life of the Indians is steadily Improving. Marriage by tribal custom is notably giving way to legal rites. At present there is hardly more than one-fourth the drunkenness among Indians that prevailed ten years ago. The missionary workers have been a powerful aid and their number among the Indians has doubled since 1900, * with a corresponding increase of churches and church attendance.

“The Indian’s industrial progress is especially noteworthy. Their individual funds on deposit have increased in the last eight years in excess of $20,000/XX). During that period they have expended for homes, hgrns and modern farm implements $18,000,000 and have added $13,000,000 to their capital in livestock. The Indian’s transformation from a game hunter and wanderer to a settled land-holder and home-builder is everywhere evident. Nearly 87,000 Indian farmers are cultivating almost 1,000,000 acres, 47,000 are engaged in stock raising, and their livestock is worth close to $38,000,000. Their last year’s Income from the sale of crops and livestock was approximately $14,000,000. “The Indians are dependable wageworkers. Their annual earnings to public and private service exceed $3,000,000. Their number receiving rations and supples not paid for in labor has decreased one-half in the last seven years."
