Loughran, Joseph, Washington, D. C., to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1871 November 7
Scope and Contents
Loughran suggests that McMaster write an editorial on the President's sham Indian policy. Recent affairs in Arizona are damaging to the administration, where the Indians were given to a Jew in place of the Catholic clergy. He refers McMaster to his article on Feb. 24 and to an enclosure on the Mexican treatment of Catholic Indians. He gave McMaster a pamphlet on the Rev. M. Spalding presbyterian church among the Nez Perus Indians. The purpose of the action is to get possesion of 640 acres of land, but the Indian Bureau will not give it up and it will probably be brought to the Congress. :: I-1-o A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
