Book The Indian and His Problem  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Indian and His Problem Classic Reprint written by Francis E. Leupp and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indian and His Problem The foregoing statement will, I trust, excuse the somewhat frequent reference found in these pages to matters which fell to me to handle officially. Of any departures from my methods which may have been made or are likely hereafter to be made by any suc cessor in office, I cannot speak with the same authority. On the other hand, as the solution of our problem has been progressive, and as it had just entered a critical stage when I was called to take charge of it, any ex tended discussion now of questions which were settled before that time would be a little like treating ancient history as a current topic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indian Question This, however, is the Indian of history. The Indian for whom the government is called to pro vide subsistence and instruction presents no such psychological difficulties. Curious compound and strange self-contradiction as the red man is in his native character, in his traditional pursuits, and amid the surroundings of his own wild life; yet when broken down by the military power of the whites, thrown out of his familiar relations, his stupendous conceit with its glamour of savage pomp and glory rudely dispelled, his occupation gone, himself a beggar, the red man becomes the most commonplace person imaginable, of very simple nature, limited aspirations, and enormous appetites.

Book The Indian  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Indian Classic Reprint written by George Bird Grinnell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-12-30 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indian This volume might be called one of recollections, for in it have been set down many memories of Indian life. The scenes described I have witnessed with my own eyes; the stories related are those which have been told me by the Indians themselves. These stories are introduced freely because the con crete example conveys a clearer idea of an event than an abstract statement, and because the story of the Indian should not be told wholly from the point of view of a race alien in thought, feeling, and culture. No narrative about any people can do them justice if written by one who is not in some degree in sympathy with them, and acquainted with their ways of thought and with the motives which govern them. Before an intelligent account of it can be given, the stranger race must be comprehended. Long association with Indi ans enables a white man ultimately to share their thought and feelings; and he who has reached this point understands the Indian. He understands that the red man is a savage and has savage qualities, yet he sees also that the most impressive characteristic of the Indian is his humanity. For in his Simplicity, his vanity, his sensitiveness to ridicule, his desire for re venge, and his fear of the supernatural, he is a child and acts like one.

India means the greatest customer of England; India means the greatest employer of the best of English intellect and manhood; India means the noblest achievement of England. Again, what would India be without England? Who would protect her from the Central Asian free hooters? Who would guarantee the internal peace? Who would bring her deserts and jungles under cultivation? Who would give her the benefits of modern science and modern civilization? The unity of England with India is therefore a Divine dispensation for the good of both the countries. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from In Red Man's Land: A Study of the American Indian N the pages which follow I'have tried to avoid I going over any of the ground covered by The Indian and His Problem. The purpose of that work was to set forth the larger relations of the aboriginal race to our governmental mechanism, and to indicate the lines of legislation and administration necessary to their proper adjustment. In In Red Man's Land my aim has been to deal with the In dian as an individual, as if I were introducing an Old resident to new neighbors. As the two books present respectively the civic and the human aspects of the Indian, they are designed to supplement each other Wherever they appeal to the same readers. The gen erous reception accorded my earlier volume encour ages 'me to hope for equal consideration for its successor.

The nations of colonial times, and the high contracting parties whom the Republic met as apparent equals during its first ninety years, have come down to) draw rations under the to be blanketed and continental tramps. In the last analysis of the Indian, in Congress and on the border, he is discovered to be simply a man, and more or less like all Americans; and the recent and so far final proposition is to treat him as an American. In coming to this we have had a tedious, annoying, nugatory, and mortifying series of theories, experiments, and makeshifts. Meanwhile, there has been an apparent decline in their numbers, from the highest official maximum, of about in 1872, to in 1885.

Book Shut Your Mouth

Download or read book Shut Your Mouth written by George Catlin and published by . This book was released on 1869 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Catlin discusses how closing one's mouth during sleep and day to day will foster improvement in mental and physical condition. This edition contains all of the original illustrations the author made. Walking among and studying various Native American tribes in the 19th century, the author noticed that many of the elders possessed a serene and well-preserved appearance. The young members of the tribe seemed especially healthy, with an innate resistance to certain illnesses and congenital conditions. Seeing the tribe's members sleeping, he noted that they all did so with closed mouths. Catlin pondered whether this habit contributed to the physical vigor of the people, and investigated further. After venturing back to the towns of the Midwest, he attests to witnessing how terrible many people who had practiced mouth breathing throughout life appeared, and became deeply opposed to its practice. This book details how children and young people can be encouraged against mouth breathing, and notes how different the facial countenance appears between mouth breathing people and nose breathers. Today, the notion that mouth breathing promotes physical ugliness or decrepitude is wholly disavowed as an eccentric idea with no basis in fact. However, sleep researchers have demonstrated that breathing with the mouth open while asleep can result in more snoring and thus a lower quality of sleep and therefore health. Overall, one could venture that Catlin's ideas possess a certain merit, even if his book is an exaggeration. Although primarily known today as a painter and traveller who became an emissary of sorts to the Plains tribes, George Catlin was also an enthusiastic if occasional writer. He admired the Native American peoples for their traditions and distinctive appearance, and took to painting them - his marked talent led to their respect for his gifts, and they duly welcomed him with friendship.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our National Problem: The Sad Condition of the Oklahoma Indians For a number of years, those of us who have kept in touch with the Indian situation generally in the United States have known that a very bad condition obtained among the Indians known as the Five Civilized Tribes, and living in the State of Oklahoma. On May 17th, 1912, the Chairman of the Board of Indian Com missioners, Honorable George Yaux, Jr., visited Oklahoma and spent some time traveling through the Cherokee, Creek and Seminole countries. He was accompanied by Dana H.Kelsey, Esq., superintendent of the Union Indian Agency, having in charge the Five Civilized Tribes. Air. Vaux sfindings were published in the 43 rd Annual Report of the Board, 1912. Briefly, he finds that while some of the Indians are progressive and well to do, the bulk of them are in far from satisfactory condition. Mr. Vaux, in addition to his able report on the situation, spoke at some length at the Conference of the Friends of the In dian and Other Dependent Peoples, at Lake Mohonk, in October, 1912. He advocated more protection for our wards. Desiring to study the Oklahoma situation in its broader aspects, I visited Oklahoma in March, 1913, in company with J.Weston Allen, Esq., who represented the Boston Indian Citizenship Commit tee and other organizations. We spent considerable time not only in consultation with various Government officials and private citizens, but also in driving over the Creek, Seminole and Cherokee countries. Mr. Allen remained after I returned east, and drove many miles through the region inhabited by the Choctaw and Chickasaw Indians, and made a report to me on the situation as he found it. Exclusive of railway travel, our overland trips about the state totalled some 6 oc miles. Both of us took numerous photographs showing the actual conditions under which the Indians are living. It is neither a pleasure nora personal satisfaction to me to present to the American public so sad a story as is outlined in the pages which follow. I do not wish to be a pessimist, but the American people should knowr precisely and exactly what has been going on in the new state of Oklahoma. The sole purpose of this expose Is To Arouse, if possible, the American conscience, and to bring pressure to bear on Congress in order that we may end an in tolerable condition. It has been stated in the public press of Oklahoma that I wish to attack the fair name of that state. This is not correct. I make public the wrongs of the Indians and expose what has been done to them. Whether our national Government or the State of Oklahoma are to blame, readers may decide. In this pamphlet I expand my original report and findings, made to Honorable George Vaux, Jr., Chairman of our Board; and my briefer reports to the Honorable Secretary of the Interior.

Book A Great Indian Problem and a Suggested Solution  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Great Indian Problem and a Suggested Solution Classic Reprint written by Rai Bahr Ganga Ram and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Great Indian Problem and a Suggested Solution What is the Indian Problem? It has two aspects. (1) In Great Britain it appears to be a spirit of "unrest" and "discontent." Now and again, one sees in the London and Provincial newspapers, the ugly words "Sedition in India." (2) In India, the problem is one that daily presses upon the millions of its people, the problem of making two ends meet; of the food supplies for the ever growing population, and wherewithal to buy the needs of life? Where there is smoke, there is fire, and there is a cause for "unrest" and "discontent," but it is Economical and not Political. A great solution lies, in my opinion, as I will attempt to show in this pamphlet, in the development of the produce of land, and in freeing the cultivator from the harassment and hardship of the present system of cash fixed payment, according to a periodical or any kind of assessment. Before proceeding to outline my scheme in somewhat greater detail, I will here just say that from the knowledge of my own countrymen, I firmly believe that a revision of the Government of India's Land Revenue Policy in some accordance with my proposed solution of the problem will speedily lead to a development of land produce which will tend to alleviate, if not terminate, the "unrest" and "discontent," the evidences of dissatisfaction with the outward conditions of life.
