E. W. WHITTLESEY, Secretary Board of Indian Commissioners, Washington, D. C. SIR : I will now attempt to answer your favor of April 5 to the best of my ability : 1. Five hundred and fifty-one.
2. Five hundred and forty-one.
3. About 100 families.
4. All raise fairly good gardens ; most of them raise a little hay, about forty raise oats, and at least thirty have a surplus to sell each year ; this year it will reach 10, 000 bushels.
5. Only seven of them have leased their lands, and as a rule the...y get more out of the land than if they worked it themselves, besides the land is kept in better condi- tion, fences in better repair; in fact, the leasing so far has been a benefit to the Indian, for the parties that lease generally have more than one place and would attain little or no benefit if it was not rented.
6. I believe the allotment of sufficient land to each Indian for a home was the proper thing to do and was about the first step in the right direction, yet the classi- fying of all Indians as Indians, and the withholding of the patent in fee simple from all alike, irrespective of their ability to manage their own affairs, is a serious mistake and a wrong; it leaves no hope or encouragement to those that are progressive and trying to advance ; it is not so much the fact that they are not to come into posses- sion of their land as the humiliating knowledge that the Government still holds a string to them.
