GEN. T. J. MORGAN, United States Commissioner of Indian Affairs, in a recent address in Chicago, expressed the opinion that the Indians should be taught the English language, that they should be given a knowledge of the use of machinery and tools, and that they should be induced to become Christians. He made it clear to his auditors, however, that schools supported by the Government had no right to teach religion. His idea was that missionaries should give the needed religious instruction.
