Baum

Baum's editorial shows a very strong hatred of the native Americans. He describes them as "despicable beings" and "untamable creatures." He states that the white man has pushed the natives to the brink of extinction for years and should just finish the job while they can. His disgust of the natives is quite apparent with phrases like, "History would forget these latter despicable beings"and, "better that they die than live the miserable wretches that they are."It's really disgusting that people were this hateful to a race that were the original owners of North American.
