INDIAN SCHOOL
FOR CARSON SINK,
TO be 'Established by the Government Near the Allotments Between Fallen and Stillwater
TO EDUCATE YOUNG MINDS
There seems to be no doubt but what an Indian day school will soon be under way near the main Indian allotments between Fallon and Stillwater.
While at Carson the past week the editor of the EAGLE was informed that plans an specifications have already been submitted and that the contract will soon be let for the construction of the buildings. The school„ it is under' stood is to be located at the ,.crossing of two public /roads and at -a convenient point for Indians Jiving .on ',their allotments, The buildings will include a school building, kitchen, dining room, and quarters for the teacher and cook.
This will be a day school, the Indians staying at their homes and being given a warm meal ,at noon, that being the system in vogue at five Indian schools at which C. H. Asbury has charge. His headquarters are at the Carson Indian school of which he has charge. The other five schools are located at Fort McDermott, Oregon, Walker River, Nev., Bishop, Big Pine and Independence, Cal.
The Carson school is different from the others, in that sleeping apartments I are provided for the pupils and they make the school their home.
It is expected that an effort will be made shortly to ascertain what Indians are entitled to allotments in this county. A. good many Carson Sink Indians drifted away to Pyramid reservation and the question to be decided is whether they are now entitled to land here. As yet no allotments have been matte at Pyramid reservation, but it is stated that the work will be taken up, probably before any distant day-
Mr. Asbury has charge of the allotments on Carson Sink and is anxious to have provisions made for the education of the young Indians of this vicinity.
Notice has been given that "Proposals for the Fallon Day School Buildings" will be received by the Commisioner of Indian Affairs at Washington 1 up to June 22nd for furnishing and delivering the necessary materials to construct a school house and employee's quarter for the Fallon Day School,. Plans and specification are on exhibit on at the Gazette office, Reno; News office, Carson, and at the Stewart Institute. Information can be secured by addressing Calvin H. Asbury, Supt., IStewart, Nev.
