It is advised that during the coming winter allof the rooms of every pf in the cities and towns which have suffered from yellow fever should be opened to the outer air for a sufficient length of time to subject them to a freezing temperature. Car- pets, bedding, clothing, trunks, &c., should be ex poset to the open air and toa temperature below the freezing point. Unless this is done, Sporadic cases may be anticipated, when the warm weather returns, from yellow fever pol- son which ts liable to survive the winter in dwellings which are kept continuously at an elevated temperature.

The ob; sought to be obtained are as follows: First, the reduction of the number of agencies and consequently a large annual re- duction of the expenses attending the elviliza- Uon of the Indians and the management of their affairs. Second, tie consolidation of the Indians upon reservations where they may be best pro- lected in their personal and property rights. ‘Third, the sale of the lands vacated by the con- solidation, and the use of a portion of the turds arising therefrom in the removal of the Indians from the present reservations and thelr settiement on the consolidated agencies, the balance of the money to be funded for their use, the interest thereon to be expended in lieu of direct appropriations. ‘The Indians embraced in the bill now occup 2 yy 86 reservations contain- 507 acres of land wader charge of 20 Upon the proposed reduction they will 9 reservations containing 4,239,082 acres th ents.

The expenses attending the proposed yemoval and consolidation will be more than inet from the sale of lands vacated. The timber and arable lands and those increased in value by surrounding settlements will sell for an amount far in excess of that fixed by law. By this plan the cost of the Indian service will be reduced to the lowest possible limit consistent with the interests of the Indians, the dangers arising from encroachments by the whites will be placed at a minimum, and the 74 azencies now existing will be reduced, with materia! benefit to ail concerned, to a very small num- ber. A bill giving wider scope and more perina- nent direction to the scheme will be drawn up for presentation in the next Congress. PERMANENT LAND TITLES FOR INDIANS. The question of greatest import to the present and future welfare of the Int is that of the ue to their lands. Their constant removal from place to place in spite of solemn guaran- tees to the contrary has impressed upon them the belief that their ttle to lands assigned them is entirely without permaneney. Until they receive patents they decline in the main to Make improvements on the tracts allotted them. The evildoes not end with the issue of | ee The Indians are then defrauded of heir property by unscrupulous white men in every way that human ro | can devise. There are two kinds of Indian ttle to land of which the older and more common is that by occupancy. Certain tracts of lands thus ac- guired have been ratified to them by treaty forever, But gradually the encroachments by whites have compelled the Indians to seex for other reservations, or their lands have been selzed by settlers and they have been ousted from lon. Most if not all of our Indian Wars have arisen either from the bad faith of the government in the observance of treaties with 1 to Indian land or from the selzure of the same by its citizens in violation of ved. T wma expiess treaty stipulations the reser- vation tothe Indiansin perpetuity. The sec- ond kind of Indian title is title in severalty in tee simple which has been given in some case3 to individuals fora certain quantity of reser- vation land. Experience has shown that even the mest advanced and civilized of our Indians capable of defending their lands when lille in fee is once vested in them.

As the steamboats carry guvernment goods and wood is necessary to thei they should be enabled to obtain it honestly, as well as regu- larly and aply; which ikey cannot do in the present condition of affairs, THE BANNOCK WAR. The conditions which led to the Bannock war are traced. These are said to be the long neg- lect by the government to carry out the treaty supulations of 156s; the insufiieient appropria- Uops made for Uie subsisteace of the Bannocks by Congress; the futile repressive measures at- tempted against them by the military, which exasperated them without lessening their power to injure; and lastly the failure of the railitary mprehend the situation, which led to ule al withaniwal idiers in spite of protests of the {1 the remaining Was too sinall 10 Ceteci or tiation oF e €S Of the tronb! sent and received by the preceding the outbreak printed.

OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS. ‘The necessity of a careful and thorough re- visionof Indian statutes is pointed out. Por- tons are obsolete. The duties of superintend- ents are laid down when there is now no such officer, There are defects in the way of omis- sion. An Inspector can — an agent and substitute another in his the executive ofticer of the bureau is given ho such power. ‘As reace or war may depend on the acts of a subordinate, power to remove instantly for cause should be lodged with the head of the bu- reau, seas Subject to the approval of the Sec- retary of the Interior. ‘The Department should be allowed discretion- ary power to vary Indian police salaries accord- ing to the conduct and needs of tribes who have outgrown the ration system, in which tribes the remuneration fixed by law is inadequate. The police organization should be followed up by the adopticn of a code of laws for Indians. ‘The erection of a warehouse at some convenient spot on the Missouri river, where a collection of Seco hae. and icultural implements may be kept constantly in store to on a ply the need of such articles at agencies, anithas to avoid the expease of open inarket purchases, is recommended.
