English: Schurz counsels a settler holding his head to be patient. A band of marauding Indians is riding off in the distance and the immediate neighborhood is devastated with destroyed buildings and murdered settlers lying on the ground.
PATIENCE UNTIL THE INDIAN IS CIVILIZED — SO TO SPEAK.
Secretary of the Interior. “There are two methods of Indian
management possible: either to herd and coral the Indians under the walls
or guns of a military force, so to speak, so as to watch them and prevent
outbreaks; or to start them at work upon their lands, to educate them, and to
civilize them ...... There are in the Army a great many gentlemen who have
good ideas about the Indian Service, but it is one thing to have ideas, and
another to carry them out, and I think that the patient labor and care of
detail necessary to raise the Indian tribes to a state of civilization would
not be found among the officers of the Army.”
