Excerpt from The Cherokee Indians: With Special Reference to Their Relations With the United States Government The obj ect of this study is to exhibit the principles and policies of the Federal Government in its treatment of the Cherokee tribe of Indians. The Cherokees, known as one of the five civilized tribes, are probably the most intelligent Indian nation and the one farthest ad vanced in civilization. For years the Cherokees have been at least nominally Christians. For these reasons the Government's treatment of them is peculiarly in structive as it is unobscured by many of the difficulties which tend to befog the main issue. We have here a tribe with a government similar to that of the United States; with its newspapers, with its schools, churches, asylums; with its leaders comparable in ability with many of the leading men of the United States. Where a tribe is grossly ignorant and degraded, it is very dif ficult to discover the Government's principles, or inter pret its policy in its dealings with them. If then we would be enlightened in regard to the white man's treatment of the red man we could scarcely find a more illuminating illustration than the story of the Chero kees.
