Synopsis
Excerpt from Indian Affairs, Vol. 1: Laws and Treaties; (Statutes, Executive Orders, Proclamations, and Statistics of Tribes); Compiled to December 1, 1902
An accurate compilation of the treaties. Laws. Executive orders, and other matters relating to Indian affairs, from the organization of the Government to the present time, has been urgently needed for many years, and its desirability has been repeatedly emphasized by the Commissioner of Indian Affairs in his annual reports to Congress. The present work was undertaken by the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs in pursuance of the recommendation of the Commissioner and to meet the pressing need which the committee found for a correct compilation, convenient in form and properly indexed, so that any law, treaty, or order could readily be found. Much difficulty and vexatious delay have heretofore preceded the finding of the text of Indian treaties, orders, laws, and subsequent amendments thereto, in the scattered form in which they have only been obtainable.
Owing to the great mass of matter to be examined and edited, much caution and judgment had to be exercised to keep the volumes within bounds. It is believed that the two volumes comprising this work contain everything necessary to a proper understanding of Indian legislation.
