Excerpt from Our Indian Wards IN the preparation and publication. Of this work the author has been moved by a sincere desire to render service in the amelioration of the condition of our Indian population, now numbering about two hundred and seventy-five thousand souls. The condition of this population, and the relations existing between the Indians and the white people dwelling on the border, is not satisfactory. This fact no intelligent man will deny. There is. Diversity of opinion as to the causes which produce the discontent and disorder that prevail, as well as the wars that result therefrom. These border wars began at a very early period, and may be traced through our whole history, and the record is a sickening detail of outrage, robbery, and murder. The careful student of history should have no difficulty in discovering the origin of our Indian complications, as well as the causes that have stimulated conflicts between the white and red man, and which have formed such sad chapters in our annals.

Excerpt from Indian Policy and Westward Expansion The time during which these problems had to be solved added to the difficulty of the solution. During the earlier part of the period considered, the question of slavery and sectional rivalry had not become so acute and at that time had little influence on the situation. However, by the time of the annexation of Texas and the settlement of the Oregon question, sectional rivalry had become one of the dominant factors in any consideration of measures relating to west ward expansion and even threatened to make impossible any solution of these problems. These difficulties could not but be reflected in the formulation and execution of Indian policy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The California Indians: A Clever Satire on the Government's Dealings With Its Indian Wards No aid was given by government beyond the grants of land necessary for missionary purposes; yet they soon grew wealthy, owned immense herds of cattle, supplied agricultural products to the ranch eros, and carried on a considerable trade in hides and tallow with the'united States. If the Spanishpriests could do this without arms or assistance, in the midst of a savage country, at a period when the Indians were more numerous and more powerful than they are now, surely it could be done in a com paratively civilized country by intelligent Ameri cans, with all the lights of experience and the co operation of a beneficent government. At least Congress thought so; and in 1853 laws were passed for the establishment of a reservation system in California, and large appropriations were made to carry it into efiect. Tracts of land of twenty-five thousand acres were ordered to be set apart for the use of the Indians; oflicers were ap pointed to supervise the affairs of the service; cloth ing, cattle, seeds, and agricultural implements were purchased; and a general invitation was extended to the various tribes to come in and learn how to work like white men. The first reservation was establish ed at the Tejon, a beautiful and fertile valley in the southern part of the state. Headquarters for the employes, and large' granaries for the' crops, were erected. The Indians were feasted on cattle, and everything promised favorably. True, it cost a great deal to get started, about but a consider able cr0p was raised, and there was every reason to hope that the experiment would prove successful. In the course of time other reservations were establish ed, one in the foothills of the Sacramento Valley, at a place'called Nome Lackee; one at the mouth of the Noyo River, south of Cape Mendocino; one on the Klamath, below Crescent City; besides which. There were Indian farms, or adjuncts, of these res ervations at the Fresno, Nome Cult or Round Val ley, the Mattole Valley, near Cape Mendocino, and other points where it was deemed advisable to gim aid and instruction to the Indians. The cost of these establishments was such as to justify the most sanguine anticipations of their success.

Excerpt from A Visit to the Mission Indians of California In my report of a previous visit, published by the Indian Rights Association, it was stated that At my earnest request the Government has appointed special counsel to take up and defend the rights of these Indians, but appointed him to serve without compensation. It seems evident, therefore, that this effort must be sustained and pushed by our Association. It is known to many that the Indian Rights Association became responsible for the fees of Mr. Ward, the special counsel appointed by the attorney-general, neither the Department of Justice nor the Interior Department having any funds to use for such purposes. The case of Byrnes m. The San Jacinto Indians came to trial last summer, and was decided in favor of the plaintiff, and, failing to induce the Government to stand sponsor for the case, and assume responsibility for costs and indemnity to plaintiff pending an appeal to the Supreme Court, the Secretary of the Indian Rights Association gave his personal check for which has been deposited with the clerk of the Court for San Diego County, California, to await the issue of this appeal. By the timely arrival of this check, the immediate ejectment of zoo Indians from the homes and lands on which, by con cession of plaintiff, they have lived continuously since 1815, was delayed at least until the Supreme Court of the State shall con firm the decree of the lower court.
