AMPLE PRECEDENTS TO BE FOLLOWED.

"Precedents to be followed are ample. In private corporate trusts that

have been mismanaged a basis of appeal has been found only when some

favorable circumstance has brought to light conditions so shocking as to

cause those people who have possessed political power, as a matter of

self-protection, to demand a thorough reorganization and revision of

methods. The same motive has lain back of legislation for the Indian.

But the motive to political action has been less effective, for the

reason that in the past the Indians who have acted in self-protection

have either been killed or placed in confinement. All the machinery of

government has been set to work to repress rather than to provide

adequate means for justly dealing with a large population which had no

political rights."--Edict Magazine.
