Indian Education

When we speak of the education of the Indians, we mean that comprehensive systems of training and instruction which we convert them into American citizens, put within their reach the blessings which the rest of us enjoy, and enable them to compete successfully with the white man on his own ground and with his own methods. Education is to be the medium through which the rising generation of Indians are to be brought into fraternal and harmonious relationship with their white fellow-citizens, and with them enjoy the sweets of refined homes, the delight of social intercourse, the emoluments of commerce and trade, the advantages of travel, together with the pleasures that comes from literature, science, and philosophy, and the solace and stimulus afforded by a true religion.
