Our Relations With The Indians Have Been

It Is Unfair To Suppose That One Party Has Invariably Acted Rightly, And That The Other Is Responsible For Every Wrong That Has Been Committed.

For A Time During The Early Settlement Of This Country Peace And Goodwill Prevailed, Only To Be Followed Later By Violent And Relentless Warfare.

These Are Hallowed Moments, When Every American Has Reason To Express His Gratitude To Almighty God That It Has Been Our Good Fortune To Witness The Light Of This Auspicious Morn.

Whether Or Not Our System Of Indian Management Has Been A Success During The Past Ten, Fifty, Or Hundred Years Is Almost Answered In The Asking.

The More We Study The Indian's Character The More We Appreciate The Marked Distinction Between The Civilized Being And The Real Savage.
