The Penobscot Indians have by an
imperoeptible metamorphosis been chang
ing gradually from A1gonquins to Ganis.
The last fullblooded Indian died several
years ago, leaving. however, enough APP
proximato full bloods to form an Old
Tribe party. This party will ask the
Legislature to expel from the tribe all
having less than fifty per cent. of Indian
blood. II this were done the tribe would
be- reduced to less than $50. The average
loss in population in Indian colonies that
are kept Co themselves is between three
and four per cent year, and thus at the
and of 40 or 90 years, by which time the
Islands will be worth s., cO0, 600 or 5000
Co., the last Indian is likely to be the
richest man In Maine. Upon his death
the whole property will probably escheat
to the state.
