To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We know that it threw all power into the hands of the Indian Bureau, which made all treaties, attended to their execu- tion and fulfillment, and was therefore, in a great degree, responsible for the honest performance of contracts arising under them. If they have been faithfully carried out, the Indians must have received asufiBcient amount of teaching to permanently impress the dullest of natures, and enough substantial aid to win their continued gratitude. Educa- tion and the spirit of thankf...ulness have not, however, been so largely developed as to repress their savage pas- sions, nor to cement a lasting friendship. As a rule, they have been ready to break off amicable relations with the Government, whenever their strength promised them a suc- cessful issue to hostilities. A distinguished bishop of the Hosted by Google INDIAN TREATY SYSTEM. 147 Episcopal church, who has labored zealously in the field of Indian missions, and who has given considerable study to the causes of border disturbances, publicly asserted a few years since, that Indian wars had cost us five hundred millions of dollars.
