Lo. THE POOR INDIAN.

The bureau of the census has Just
issued a bulletin relating % Indians
that develops some very interesting
facts. In 1910, there were in the
United States, xclusive OF the terri
tories 265 1858 Indians, and in Alaska
1881. An examination OF vital sta
tistics shows that larger number of
children, born of mixed marriages,
survive than OF marriages between
full-bloods, and that fertility is great
er in parents of mixed blood than In
parents OF full blood.
The same observation is borne out
in a consideration of Indians with
respect to age. In 1910, more than
onelhalf (51.5 per ent) o, rae Indians
in the United States were under 20
Years of age, more than one-third
1851 per cent? from 90 to so years,
and about one-eighth az per cent? 81
years and older. The fact that stands
out most prominently is the high pro
portion OF young persons among the
mixed bloods as compared with the
/ full bIoods. A similar difference is
I to be noted between the mixed tribal
bloods and the full tribal bloods.
