Approved on February 8, 1887, "An Act to Provide for the Allotment of Lands in Severalty to Indians on the Various Reservations," known as the Dawes Act, emphasized severalty – the treatment of Native Americans as individuals rather than as members of tribes.
1887 年 2 月 8 日批准的《在各种保留地向印第安人分配若干土地的法案》(即《道斯法案》)强调了“若干”——将美洲原住民视为个人而不是部落成员。
Federal Indian policy during the period from 1870 to 1900 marked a departure from earlier policies that were dominated by removal, treaties, reservations, and war.
1870 年至 1900 年期间的印第安联邦政策标志着与早期以迁徙、条约、保留和战争为主的政策的背离。
The new policy focused specifically on breaking up reservations and tribal lands by granting land allotments to individual Native Americans and encouraging them to take up agriculture.
新政策特别注重通过向美洲原住民个人分配土地并鼓励他们从事农业来打破保留地和部落土地。
It was reasoned that if a person adopted "White" clothing and ways, and was responsible for their own farm, they would gradually drop their "Indian-ness" and be assimilated into White American culture.
据推测,如果一个人采用“白人”的服装和方式,并负责自己的农场,他们就会逐渐放弃“印第安性”并被美国白人文化同化。
Then it would no longer be necessary for the government to oversee Indian welfare in the paternalistic ways it had previously done, including providing meager annuities, with American Indians treated as dependents.
这样,政府就不再需要像以前那样以家长式的方式监督印第安人的福利,包括提供微薄的年金,并将美洲印第安人视为家属。
On February 8, 1887, Congress passed the Dawes Act, named for its author, Senator Henry Dawes of Massachusetts.
1887 年 2 月 8 日,国会通过了《道斯法案》,该法案以其作者、马萨诸塞州参议员亨利·道斯的名字命名。
Also known as the General Allotment Act, the law authorized the President to break up reservation land, which was held in common by the members of a tribe, into small allotments to be parceled out to individuals.
该法也称为《一般分配法》,授权总统将部落成员共同持有的保留地分成小块分配给个人。
Thus, Native Americans registering on a tribal "roll" were granted allotments of reservation land.
因此,在部落“名册”上登记的美洲原住民获得了保留地的分配。
“To each head of a family, one-quarter of a section; To each single person over eighteen years of age, one-eighth of a section; To each orphan child under eighteen years of age, one-eighth of a section; and To each other single person under eighteen years now living, or who may be born prior to the date of the order of the President directing an allotment of the lands embraced in any reservation, one-sixteenth of a section.”
“对于每个户主,四分之一的份额;对于每个十八岁以上的单身人士,八分之一的份额;对于每个十八岁以下的孤儿,八分之一的份额;对于每个十八岁以下的现存单身人士,或可能在总统指示分配任何保留地所包含的土地的命令之日之前出生的人,八分之一的份额。”
Section 8 of the act specified groups that were to be exempt from the law.
该法案第 8 条规定了不受该法律约束的群体。
It stated that "the provisions of this act shall not extend to the territory occupied by the Cherokees, Creeks, Choctaws, Chickasaws, Seminoles, and Osage, Miamies and Peorias, and Sacs and Foxes, in the Indian Territory, nor to any of the reservations of the Seneca Nation of New York Indians in the State of New York, nor to that strip of territory in the State of Nebraska adjoining the Sioux Nation on the south."
它指出,“本法的规定不适用于印第安领土内切罗基人、克里克人、乔克托人、奇克索人、塞米诺尔人、奥塞奇人、迈阿密人和皮奥里亚斯人、萨克人和福克斯人所占领的领土,也不适用于纽约州塞内卡印第安人保留地,也不适用于内布拉斯加州与苏族相邻的那条领土。南方。”
Subsequent events, however, extended the act's provisions to these groups as well.
然而,随后发生的事件将该法案的条款也扩展到了这些群体。
In 1893, President Grover Cleveland appointed the Dawes Commission to negotiate with the Cherokees, Creeks, Choctaws, Chickasaws, and Seminoles, who were known as the Five Civilized Tribes.
1893年,格罗弗·克利夫兰总统任命道斯委员会与切罗基人、克里克人、乔克托人、契卡索人和塞米诺尔人(被称为文明五部族)进行谈判。
As a result of these negotiations, several acts were passed that allotted a share of common property to members of the Five Civilized Tribes in exchange for abolishing their tribal governments and recognizing state and federal laws.
这些谈判的结果是,通过了几项法案,将共同财产分配给五个文明部落的成员,以换取废除他们的部落政府并承认州和联邦法律。
In order to receive the allotted land, members were to enroll with the Office of Indian Affairs (later renamed the Bureau of Indian Affairs [BIA]).
为了获得分配的土地,成员必须在印第安人事务办公室(后更名为印第安人事务局 [BIA])注册。
Once enrolled, the individual's name went on the "Dawes Rolls." This process assisted the BIA and the Secretary of the Interior in determining the eligibility of individual members for land distribution.
一旦注册,个人的名字就会出现在“道斯卷”上。这一过程协助 BIA 和内政部长确定个别成员的土地分配资格。
The purpose of the Dawes Act, and the subsequent acts that extended its initial provisions, was purportedly to protect American Indian property rights, particularly during the land rushes of the 1890s.
《道斯法案》以及随后扩展其最初条款的法案的目的据称是为了保护美洲印第安人的财产权,特别是在 1890 年代的土地抢购期间。
But in many instances the results were vastly different.
但在许多情况下,结果却截然不同。
The land allotted to individuals included desert or near-desert lands unsuitable for farming.
分配给个人的土地包括不适合耕种的沙漠或近沙漠土地。
In addition, the techniques of self-sufficient farming were much different from their tribal way of life.
此外,自给自足的农业技术与他们的部落生活方式有很大不同。
Many did not want to take up agriculture, and those who did want to farm could not afford the tools, animals, seed, and other supplies necessary to get started.
许多人不想从事农业,而那些想从事农业的人却买不起开始农业所需的工具、动物、种子和其他用品。
There were also problems with inheritance.
继承方面也存在问题。
Often young children inherited allotments that they could not farm because they had been sent away to boarding schools.
年幼的孩子常常会继承一些他们无法耕种的土地,因为他们被送到了寄宿学校。
Multiple heirs also caused a problem; when several people inherited an allotment, the size of the holdings became too small for effective farming.
多个继承人也造成了一个问题;当几个人继承一块土地时,土地的规模就变得太小,无法进行有效的耕作。
Tribes were also often underpaid for the land allotments, and when individuals did not accept the government requirements, their allotments were sold to non-Native individuals, causing American Indian communities to lose vast acreage of their tribal lands.
部落获得土地分配的报酬也往往偏低,当个人不接受政府要求时,他们的分配土地就会被出售给非土著个人,导致美洲印第安人社区失去大片部落土地。

An Act to provide for the allotment of lands in severalty to Indians on the various reservations, and to extend the protection of the laws of the United States and the Territories over the Indians, and for other purposes.
该法案规定在各种保留地向印第安人分配多块土地,并将美国和领土的法律保护范围扩大到印第安人,以及用于其他目的。
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled , That in all cases where any tribe or band of Indians has been, or shall hereafter be, located upon any reservation created for their use, either by treaty stipulation or by virtue of an act of Congress or executive order setting apart the same for their use, the President of the United States be, and he hereby is, authorized, whenever in his opinion any reservation or any part thereof of such Indians is advantageous for agricultural and grazing purposes, to cause said reservation, or any part thereof, to be surveyed, or resurveyed if necessary, and to allot the lands in said reservation in severalty to any Indian located thereon in quantities as follows:
美利坚合众国参议院和众议院在国会中颁布的规定,在所有情况下,任何印第安人部落或部落已经或今后将位于任何供其使用的保留地上,无论是通过条约规定还是通过国会法案或行政命令将其划定供其使用,美国总统都可以并且特此授权,只要他认为这些印第安人的任何保留或其任何部分有利于农业和放牧目的,对所述保留地或其任何部分进行测量,或在必要时进行重新测量,并将所述保留地中的土地分批分配给位于其上的任何印第安人,数量如下:
Provided , That in case there is not sufficient land in any of said reservations to allot lands to each individual of the classes above named in quantities as above provided, the lands embraced in such reservation or reservations shall be allotted to each individual of each of said classes pro rata in accordance with the provisions of this act: And provided further, That where the treaty or act of Congress setting apart such reservation provides the allotment of lands in severalty in quantities in excess of those herein provided, the President, in making allotments upon such reservation, shall allot the lands to each individual Indian belonging thereon in quantity as specified in such treaty or act: And provided further, That when the lands allotted are only valuable for grazing purposes, an additional allotment of such grazing lands, in quantities as above provided, shall be made to each individual.
条件是,如果任何上述保留地没有足够的土地按上述规定的数量将土地分配给上述类别的每个人,则此类保留地所包含的土地应根据本法的规定按比例分配给每个所述类别的每个人:并且进一步规定,如果划分此类保留的条约或国会法案规定分配的土地数量超过本文规定的数量,则总统在进行分配时根据此类保留,应按照该条约或法案中规定的数量将土地分配给属于其上的每个印第安人:并且进一步规定,当分配的土地仅对放牧目的有价值时,应按上述规定的数量向每个人额外分配此类牧场。

That all allotments set apart under the provisions of this act shall be selected by the Indians, heads of families selecting for their minor children, and the agents shall select for each orphan child, and in such manner as to embrace the improvements of the Indians making the selection.
根据本法规定分配的所有分配应由印第安人选择,户主为其未成年子女选择,代理人应为每个孤儿选择,并以接受印第安人做出选择的改进的方式进行选择。
where the improvements of two or more Indians have been made on the same legal subdivision of land, unless they shall otherwise agree, a provisional line may be run dividing said lands between them, and the amount to which each is entitled shall be equalized in the assignment of the remainder of the land to which they are entitled under his act: Provided, That if any one entitled to an allotment shall fail to make a selection within four years after the President shall direct that allotments may be made on a particular reservation, the Secretary of the Interior may direct the agent of such tribe or band, if such there be, and if there be no agent, then a special agent appointed for that purpose, to make a selection for such Indian, which selection shall be allotted as in cases where selections are made by the Indians, and patents shall issue in like manner.
如果两个或两个以上的印第安人在同一块合法土地上进行了改良,除非他们另有协议,可以划一条临时线将这些土地分开,并且每个人有权获得的金额应在分配他们根据其法案有权获得的剩余土地时平均分配:但如果任何有权分配的人在总统指示可以在特定保留地进行分配后四年内未能做出选择,内政部长可以指示该部落或族群的代理人(如果有的话),如果没有代理人,则为此目的指定一名特别代理人,为该印第安人进行选择,该选择的分配应与印第安人进行选择的情况相同,并且专利应以类似方式颁发。

That where any Indian not residing upon a reservation, or for whose tribe no reservation has been provided by treaty, act of Congress, or executive order, shall make settlement upon any surveyed or unsurveyed lands of the United States not otherwise appropriated, he or she shall be entitled, upon application to the local land-office for the district in which the lands arc located, to have the same allotted to him or her, and to his or her children, in quantities and manner as provided in this act for Indians residing upon reservations; and when such settlement is made upon unsurveyed lands, the grant to such Indians shall be adjusted upon the survey of the lands so as to conform thereto; and patents shall be issued to them for such lands in the manner and with the restrictions as herein provided.
如果任何未居住在保留地上的印第安人,或其部落未通过条约、国会法案或行政命令提供保留地,应在美国任何未经勘察或未勘察的土地上定居,则该土地所在地区的当地土地办公室向该土地所在地区的当地土地办公室提出申请后,有权按照本法案中为居住在保留地上的印第安人规定的数量和方式,将同样的土地分配给他或她及其子女。预订;当这种定居是在未测量的土地上进行时,对这些印第安人的补助应根据土地测量进行调整,以使其符合规定;并应按照本文规定的方式和限制向他们颁发这些土地的专利。
And the fees to which the officers of such local land-office would have been entitled had such lands been entered under the general laws for the disposition of the public lands shall be paid to them, from any moneys in the Treasury of the United States not otherwise appropriated, upon a statement of an account in their behalf for such fees by the Commissioner of the General Land Office, and a certification of such account to the Secretary of the Treasury by the Secretary of the Interior.
如果这些土地根据公共土地处置的一般法律进入,这些地方土地办公室的官员有权获得的费用,应从美国财政部中任何未拨款的资金中支付给他们,并由土地总局专员代表他们开具此类费用的账户报表,并由内政部长向财政部长提供此类账户的证明。
