Striking Review of Indian Territory Conditions in Robinson Essay
The Indian Territory, an anomaly in the U S body politic, is examined by Indiana's James M Robinson. He cites lack of general government, five civilized tribes as nations, and a growing white influx expanding to 326000 residents of 400000. He notes vast agricultural and mineral wealth yet missing reliable law and education infrastructure, with insane care and justice courts strained across states and distant asylums.
