HENRY S. PANCOAST.
My predecessors have frequently called attention to the startling fact that we
have within our midst two hundred and seventy-five thousand people,
the least intelligent portion of our population, for whom we provide
no law, either for their protection or for the punishment of
crime committed among themselves.-Report of the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs /or 1876.

for his rifle.-General Crook.
