Changing Is Not Vanishing
Who says the Indian race is vanishing?
The Indians will not vanish.
The feathers, paint and moccasin will vanish, but the Indians,—never!
Just as long as there is a drop of human blood in America, the Indians
will not vanish.
His spirit is everywhere; the American Indian will not vanish.
He has changed externally but he has not vanished.
He is an industrial and commercial man, competing with the world; he
has not vanished.
Wherever you see an Indian upholding the standard of his race, there
you see the Indian man—he has not vanished.
The...Indian is here, there and everywhere.
The Indian race vanishing? No, never! The race will live on and prosper
forever.
