Mr.. Warner, of Los Angeles, has offered a
bill in the Assembly which proposes for a
consideration Of $4,000 per annum from
the General Government, and upon the pay

We believe the Indian tribal system should
be broken up by apprenticing the young
male and female Indians, and col ectng the
older ones upon Reservations. 70 prevent
the frequent Indian troubles in the State, a
system something like this must be adopted.
