The constant clash of the American and the Indian civilizations is undoubtedly a nerve- racking annoyance. “Of course, the poor Indians really did give a civilization to the world. They were a simple and a natural people, having a real art and a real literature. “The Indian at least has blood andthe Osborne case described as one of Natur-|the charms of their “Oliver.” not machine oil in his veins. ally, there are some savages, the good being always mixed with the bad.” The Americans are frequently called “the Germans of the New World.” New York City is regarded as the beginning and end of the Unit- ed States.
