Alas +! the Poor Indian.

A citizen Of Los Angeles, California,
tells tho following story Of wrongs to the
Indians. he writes to the United States
Indian commissioner:
lam astunished and disguised at the
course OF the government toward the
Temecula Indians. That poor people
once owned this entire country, and
havo been driven back, back, back, until
they finally settled in cone OF the San
Bernardino mountains, where they and
everybody thought they were out Of tho
way OF civilization. But one Frenchman
aud two Scotchmen camc to America
and bought sheep, and in searching for
pasture for their herds they discovered
that tho land occupied by these poorIu-
dians would make good grazing ground
for them. They have secured from tho
government OF America title to land
occupied by these poor, helpless crea-
lures, and have secured the officers OF
the government rs aids to drive two
thousand poor women and children out
OF their little cabins aud away from their
little crops and orchards, where they
have lived for, thirty or forty years.
Now, at tho beginning OF winter, they
are forced to leave everything and go
out into tho winter storms without
shelter and Without cd.
The agent is exceedingly anxious to do
something for the Indians, but tho ne.
cessary instructions OF the department,
for want OF authority Of Congress, arc
such TINT he is helpless. If this land
really does belong to the Frenchmau
md Scotchmen, which is doubted by
some, few thousand dollars, il it could
have been secured OF Congress accord
ing to the recommendations OF the com.
missioner of Indian affairs, would have
purchased 1t, and these Indians would
have supported themselves comfortably
OIL it, and never have been charge to
the government. They are not savages,
but civilized, kind and friendly. But
they arc driven away for the benefit Of n
few sheep. shall not be surprised il
they become very savage and do much
harm md cost tho government hun
drcdfold more than the sheep and land
will ever bring.
write rs M impartial man, have no
particular love for the Indians, having
fought them for twenty years i'll Texas,
but | know whereof l speak. These
poor Indians have been shamefully treat.
ed by the government anttsome Of the
citizens.
Can you not go to the department and
get some MD for thcml The cheapest
thing that cal he done is to buy land
and give it to them. A half township
would accommodate them all.
