Distinguished Indians
TCPAC AMARC


territories now constituting the
South American republic Of Be-
livia formed part Of the great Pc
ruVlan empire, and to this day
nowhere are SO many of the de-
Scendants of the abOrigineS found
as in the country named after
Bolivar, our great South Ameri-
can liberator. Immediately after
the subjugation Of those portions
of the new world by Pizarro and
his followers, the Spaniards cs-
tablished what they called the
"mita," a law by which a pro
portional number of Indians from
each district were compelled to
work one year in the mines. So
badly were they treated that very
few of them ever lived out The
year, and the greater number died
few months after being set to
work. So closely was the mita
associate with death in the minds
Of the natives that the Indian,
on hearing that the lot to serve a
year had fallen on him, would
make all arrangements as to the
leaving his family and disposing
Of what property he might have.
BY the old Spanish colonial rec
OrdS we find that one mine at
Potosi for some years called for
the lives and labor of $4,000 In
dams annually. In a few brief
years, in working a few mines,
persisted S,2S5,OOO of these down.
trodden people. Seeing that they
would soon depopulate the land
and leave themselves without
laborers, the Spaniards abolished
the mita and substituted the law
Of ''reparmiento,' by which all
Indians were obliged to work from
the ages of Is to 55 for the neigh
boring planters, who in their turn
were supposed to give them all
the necessaries of life and paw
annually t. tie Spanish govern
ment IS per capita for the use of
the natives.
By ignoring the law and by
claiming that the Indians were in
debt to them, the planters forced
them to work from the ages OF Is
to IS, fed them badly; and so that
they might increase in numbers
and supply the labor market, they
compelled them to marry when
not much more than children, as
we'll as forced them into alliances
with soldiers and criminals from
Spain; the consequence being the
rapid physical, intellectual and
moral degeneration Of the more
important Indian tribes.
Things went on from bad to
worse until 1880. Then as now
the Indian population of Bolivia
consisted of the Quichua and the
Aymara, two divisions of the
great Inca race, who had become
settled down, and were the farm
ers of the country. The Cholos,
half-breed Indians and Spaniards,
were and are still the bust
ness men, the aggressive element
of the country. Besides were the
powerful and unconquered Potor-
ros, Guaranacos, Hichilos and
