The Nature of Indian Policy Actually it is necessary to determine what we mean by policy before we proceed to an examination of it.It is suggested that there are three policy levels to be considered. The first consists of basic ideas that have influenced the actions of the United States toward Indians from the beginning of our history; the second would include the guiding princi- ples adopted and pursued by the government at a given time; and the third would include the rules laid down by Bureau officials to put the guiding principles into effect. The latter is sometimes referred to as "management policy." This survey considers chiefly first and second level policy, or basic ideas and guiding principles that have been followed in our relations with Indian tribes and Indians individually during our history. Management policy is referred to only as necessary to make valid judgments in relation to the evaluation of policy or to determine its effect on the object of Indian policy, the Indian people. Indian policy has historically been influenced by each of the three branches of government:legislative, executive, and judicial. Although policy changes may be officially effected through laws orig- inating in Congress, the executive branch may and does strongly influ- ence policy through the President's constitutional charge to "give to the Congress information on the state of the Union, and recommend to their consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient; ...." For the first few decades of our national existence the presidents expressed themselves often and rather fully in regard to Indian affairs. More recently executive opinion has tended to be expressed through the Secretary of the Interior or the Commissioner of Indian Affairs. The federal judiciary, and particularly the Supreme Court, has also influenced policy by its interpretation of cases in a manner normally without prejudice to the Indian. The executive branch, knowing well the attitude of the Supreme Court, has usually tended to avoid recommending to Congress measures they know will not meet the challenge of the court. The philosophy of the court has also influenced congressional consideration of measures supported by local interests that would be prejudicial to the Indians. Although the executive branch and the judiciary do influence legislation through the system of checks and balances mentioned above, it is finally the responsibility of Congress to enact the measures that become the laws which thePresident, through the Interior and the Bureauof Indian Affairs, Department of the by his personal oath is by the Constitutionand bound to see "faithfullyexecuted." Although we agree that may be influenced currently guiding principlesor top level policy by all three of thebranches of the national government, it is alsonecessary to remernber that affect the operation of some policies that the Bureau todayhave grown out of laws by Congress duringthe past century. passed heavily upon governmental The dead hand oftime rests slowly, and sometimes agencies of long standing.Change.occurs 't is discovered when it appears thata change has been effected that practices are stillbeing followed thatare dia- metrically opposed to thepolicy then invogue.Even a policy change as far-reaching as theIndian ReorganizationAct did not repeal all former laws havingto do with Indian affairs.

    FEDERAL RECLAMATION AND RELATED LAWS ANNOTATED (PRELIMINARY) UNITED STATES BUREAU OF RECLAMATION FEDERAL RECLAMATION AND RELATED LAWS ANNOTATED (PRELIMINARY) SUPPLEMENT II 1983-1998 SUPPLEMENT TO VOLUMES I-IV INDEX UNITED STATES BUREAU OF RECLAMATION John W. Keys, III, Commissioner Donald L. Walker Editor iii PREFACE The original three volumes of Federal Reclamation and Related Laws Annotated, published by the Department of the Interior in 1972, have proven to be an invaluable reference source for everyone interested in knowing the legal history of the Federal Reclamation program authorized by the Reclamation Act of 1902 and the related hydroelectric power marketing program that was transferred to the Department of Energy in 1977. In 1988, two additional volumes, Volume IV and Supplement I, brought that legal history up to date through 1982. These two volumes, Volume V and Supplement II, bring the legal history up to date through 1998. These two volumes do not include interpretative annotations concerned with solicitor opinions and court cases. For this reason, these two volumes are viewed as preliminary and, therefore, printed in paperback form, rather than hardback. These two volumes are a compilation of the Federal Reclamation laws and other statutes that directly affect the program responsibilities of the Bureau of Reclamation, power marketing agencies of the Department of Energy, and other selected statutes that relate to these programs. John W. Keys, III Commissioner, Bureau of Reclamation v FOREWORD This Supplement II to Volumes I, II, III, and IV, together with Volume V, updates Federal Reclamation and Related Laws Annotated through 1998. Supplement II contains amendments to laws included in the first four volumes.

Hilwig ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Rangelands and dissertations have much in common. Both require a significant amount of time to navigate. Both also have their fair share of dangers, whether they take the form of a rattlesnake, a split infinitive, or an ardent defender of a particular range claim. Surviving these hazards demands individuality and companionship. Writing a dissertation can be as lonely as traversing a sagebrush plain, but the process is full of watering holes, colleagues, and close friends that can help one stay on the trail. Traveling across the western range requires money as well as water, and I am grateful to the financial support provided by the Department of History, Graduate College, and Graduate Student Senate at the University of Oklahoma. Grants and fellowships provided by the American Heritage Center at the University of Wyoming, the Charles Redd Center for Western Studies at Brigham Young University, the Oklahoma Chapter of the National Society of the Colonial Dames of America, and the Wyoming State Historical Society further sustained this project.
