Indians.

Probably about 30,000, quite quiet, over the whole mainland and island; rather saucy on west coast of Vancouver Island and in Queen Charlotte Island; useful as common labourers, and not without capabilities as artisans; some take to fanning and have cattle, others carry on mining with "rockers" on the Thompson and Eraser Rivers; altogether, the Indians contribute very Largely to the trade of the province. They use large quantities of flour.
