214 THE DOMINION ADMINISTRATION. Indians in Canada fall into two classes, (1) Enfranchised Indians and (2) Unenfranchised Indians. Those of the former class practically enjoy the same rights and privileges as other subjects of the Crown in Canada, whilst those of the latter class possess a special status, that is, they have special rights and are under special disabilities. ting: An enfranchised Indian is defined by the Indian Act as indians. follows: —*“ Any Indian, his wife, or minor unmarried child who has received letters patent granting to him in fee simple any portion of the reserve which has been allotted to him or fo his wife and minor children by the band to which he selongs, or any unmarried Indian who has received letters patent for an allotment of the reserve” The effect of enfranchisement is, that the person enfran- chised is no longer deemed an Indiun except as regards his right to participate in the annuities and interest moneys, rents and councils of the band to which he belongs. The general management of all matters relating to Indians is placed under the control of this department. Subject to the provisions of the Indian Act the Superin- tendent locates Indians on reserves, removes trespassers, registers sales of land, decides disputes regarding descent of property, sees that bridges and roads are kept in repair, grants licences to cut timber, and grants certificates of anfranchisement. In order to carry out the duties of the department the Superintendent is assisted by a Deputy, and the Governor- General has power to appoint Indian Commissioners and Assistant Indian Commissioners for Manitoba, the North- West Territories and British Columbia 15.
