Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, for the Year 1866 The voluminous report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs exhibits in tie tail the condition of this difficult and important branch of the public service. The numerous treaties recently negotiated with various Indian tribes have greatly augmented the labors of the department, and the constant pressure of emigration into the Indian territory produces conflicts of interest which require judicious management to adjust and control. The Commissioner sets forth the terms and stipulations of those 'treaties. The Indian tribes of the southwest have resumed their former friendly relations with the government, and it is hoped that they will succeed in fully adjusting the differences which have heretofore existed among them in consequence of the different attitudes they were induced to assume towards the United States during the rebellion. There are before the Senate some important treaties with the Indian tribes in Utah, Kansas, and Dakota, to which the attention of that body is respectfully invited. Several treaties recently negotiated with Indian tribes in the northwest will he submitted to you at an early day, to be laid before the Senate for its consideration and action. It is believed tlt, should they be ratified and faithfully executed, peaceful relations will be established with powerful tribes occupying a vast extent of country, who have recently been in hostility to the government. The Commissioner suggests the necessity of further negotiations with some of the Indians in Kansas, with a view to their removal from that State; and also with the Indian tribes in Idaho, New Mexico, and Dakota, lor their removal to and settlement upon reservations to be set apart for their exclusive occupancy and use. These suggestions will receive the early and careful consideration of the department. Collisions and hostility have been of less frequent occurrence between the whites and the Indians during the past year, than has been generally believed. Occasionally, depredations have been committed, and raids made upon emigrants and settlers; but these arc believed to have been greatly exaggerated, either by the fears of the inexperienced and timid, or the cupidity and selfishness of interested and designing speculators. Peace appears to have been tho rule, and hostilities the exception, between the Missisippi river and the Rocky mountains. It has been tho settled policy of tho government to establish the various tribes upon suitable reservations and there protect and subsist them until they can be taught to cultivate the soil and sustain themselves. It is no doubt the best, if not the only, policy that can be pursued to preserve them from extinction. Numerous recommendations looking to the amelioration of the condition of these wards of the government, arc contained in the Commissioner's report, and will no doubt receive the attention of Congress.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to the Secretary of the Interior for the Year 1880 In closing, I would request that, in consideration of the valuable services rendered by members of the police, they having aided the government and white men, as against their own people, an effort be made to induce Congress to allow something' more than the somewhat ridiculous compensation of $5 per month for service. These men have been led to expect more, and it should be given them, for if ever laborers were worthy of their hire, these certainly are.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs: To the Secretary of the Interior for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1929 When the War Department was created by Congress under the act of August 7, 1789, the duties assigned to it included those "relative to Indian affairs." A Bureau of Indian Affairs was organized in the War Department on March 11, 1824, with Thomas L. McKenney as its chief, and among the duties to which he was assigned were: The administration of the fund for the civilization of the Indians, under regulations established by the department, the examination of the claims arising out of the laws regulating the intercourse with Indian tribes, and the ordinary correspondence with superintendents, agents, and subagents. He was succeeded September 30, 1830, by Samuel S. Hamilton, whose successor about one year later was Elbert Herring. By the act of July 9, 1832, there was created in the War Department the office of Commissioner of Indian Affairs, who, subject to the Secretary of War and the President, should have "the direction and management of all Indian affairs and all matters arising out of Indian relations." On June 30, 1834, an act was passed "to provide for the organization of the Department of Indian Affairs." Under this enactment certain agencies were established and others abolished, and provision was made for subagents, interpreters, and other employees, the payment of annuities, the purchase and distribution of supplies, etc. This may be regarded as the organic law of the Indian Department. When the Department of the Interior was created by act of March 3, 1849, the Bureau of Indian Affairs was transferred thereto, and hence passed from military to civil control. Section 441 of the Revised Statutes provides that "the Secretary of the Interior is charged with the supervision of public business relating to the Indians." Section 463 of the Revised Statutes reads: "The Commissioner of Indian Affairs shall, under the direction of the Secretary of the Interior and agreeable to such regulations as the President may prescribe, have the management of all Indian affairs, and of all matters arising out of Indian relations."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to the Secretary of the Interior, 1890 The first authentic information we have in regard to the canning of hermetically sealed goods dates back to the first part of the present century, 1810, when a work was written on the subject by Appert, and published by authority of the French government. Successful experiments had already been made in this direction, but we owe to Appert the discovery and clear exposition of the principles that underlie the beautiful processes of what has grown into one of the most important of modern industries. But conceding to the discoverer of this great industry all the honor we owe him, we must note that there have been so many improvements on his methods that his book is now of little use to the practical canner, and is interesting chiefly as a bit of history. But little progress was made until 1825, when Thos. Kensett and Ezra Daggett obtained a patent from the United States on an improvement in the art of preserving.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to the Secretary of the Interior, for the Year 1878 Department of the Interior, Office of Indian Affairs, Washington, November 1, 1878. Sir: I have the honor to submit herewith the annual report of the Indian Bureau. Changes And Improvements. Many changes have been made since my last report in the methods and management of both the office and agency business. Rules previously established have been enforced, and accountability on the part of employes and of those who have had business with the office has been insisted upon, and the affairs of the office generally have been put upon a strictly business basis. The property and cash accounts of agents have been closely scrutinized and the service purified of such agents and employes as have been found unfaithful to their trusts or inefficient in their management. Claims have been critically examined, and as a result large sums of money have been saved to the government. Contractors have been held to the fulfillment of their contracts, and attempts to put upon the government inferior goods have been met by deductions which have fully protected its interests and have served to deter others from making similar experiments. Some dishonest contractors and employes have been and are now being prosecuted and convicted. Many attempted frauds have been detected and thwarted, and some which had been successful in previous years have been discovered, and it is hoped that the perpetrators may yet be brought to justice. There have been thirty-five new appointments of agents, and it is believed that most of the changes will prove of great benefit to the service. Specific and detailed instructions as to the manner of inspecting, weighing, and issuing cattle, flour, and other supplies have been given, also as to the disposition of funds and the keeping and rendering of accounts at the various agencies. The attention of agents has been called to the necessity of bringing their Indians to self-support at an early day, and education in the fields has been made a prominent feature in the teaching of the school children.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to the Secretary of the Interior: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1902 Cutting ofl' Rations. - In previous reports some space was given to the discussion of the Indian's progress and the difficulties to be over come on his way to civilization. It was pointed out that among the obstacles to his self-support the first and perhaps the principal one was the then prevailing ration system, which was justly condemned as encouraging idleness with its attendant vices and as foreign in its results to the very purpose for which it was designed. At the same time, while an evil, it was admitted to be a necessary evil, to be endured only while the Indian was learning the art of self-support, or at least put in a way where, by the exercise of ordinary industry, he could support himself. The continuance, however, of the practice of the indiscriminate issue of rations to all alike, without regard to their worldly condition, was earnestly opposed, and it was laid down as a correct rule of action that only the old and helpless should be sup ported, while the able-bodied, if not already self-supporting, should be given the opportunity to work and should then be required to take care of themselves. Faith without works is dead. Realizing this the office set to work to show by its acts the sincerity of its belief.
