Tho Indian PROBLEM.

The Indian and the Chinese prob
lens seem to be the absorbing topics
of the hour. There has been q great
misunderstanding in the popular
mind in regard to the former because
ofa studied obscurity thrown around
the Department by our officials. The
San Francisco Post takes correct
view of the matter, and in its express
sions shows that its opinions are based
upon thorough study of facts. 1t
truthfully remarks that SIT is not an
extravigant estimate to say that dur
ing the last quarter Of a century the
losses in moneys and goods stolen or
wasted aggregate, with the Indian
wars caused by the plundering alli-
ance, as much as hundred millions
of dollars. Experience has proved
this singular fact: That the average
cost of supporting the Indians has in
creased just about in proportion with
the increase in numbers of those draw
ing help from the Treasury. Forty
years ago there were 10000 Indians
drawing annuities and supplies from
the United States. The total nun Der
so returned officially last year was
2O6, 900. In 1880 it cost an average of
sl2 for each of the 10000; or $40, 900 a
year. In 1875 it cost an average of $40
each; or So, ,240, 900. In ordinary af-
fairs-in our asylums for orphans, for
the insane and other charities lit is
found that the average cost of main
tenance decreases as the number in
creases. A thousand can be fed and
clothed at lower rates for each than a
hundred, because the purchases in
larger can be more cheaply made than
In smaller quantities. This is well
recognized rule in all commercial cir
eles. But not 30 with the Indian ring.

Pueblo OF Los Angeles.

The following dispatch received un-
der date of Washington, May 29th,
will be read with interest by the peo-
pie of Los Angeles. For thus shut
ting off the blackmailing teaches Con-
gresham Wigginton deserves the
thanks of the entire community:
Wigginton has to-day obtained from
the Interior Department certified
copy of the patent, signed in 1866, for
the Los Angeles pueblo lands, but
heretofore withheld Oh account of a
defect in the publication required by
law. Attached to this copy is a GER
tificate setting forth all the facts of a
long series of unsuccessful efforts
which have heen previously made to
obtain a certified copy. Wigginton
says 1t is asked for by all the promi-
nent citizens of Los Angeles, being
desired for use by the city and county
to protect her title against speculative
and outside claimants.
