fourteenth, if not the fifteenth century.
and the tendency to brigandage is SO
strong among them that it amounts to
a disease. In many districts the paying
of tribute to robbers IS considered the
regular thing, no more out of the way
than taxes. Our task now is to give
them good government in their munich
palities, to protect them against
themselves until they learn a taste for
from active interference, leaving the
towns one at a time. as we see that they
can be trusted, but having our troops

after we leave any district, 50 as to in

much robbery and brigandage and pill

And since the United States has for hall cen
