"For our subsistence here, the means hitherto hath been the yearly access of newcomers, who have supplied all our wants, for Cat

tle, and the fruits of our la[b]ours, as board, pale, smiths work etc: If this should fail, then we have other means which may supply us, as fish, viz: Cod, bass and herring, for which no place in the world exceeds us..Our civil Government is mixed: the freemen choose the magistrates every year...and at 4 courts in the year 3 out of each town (there being 8 in all) do assist the magistrates in making laws, imposing taxes, and disposing of lands: Our Churches are governed by Pastors, Teachers ruling Elders and Deacons, yet the power lies in the whole Congregation and not in the Presbytery [not in a larger council of churches] further than for order and precedence. For the natives, they are near all dead of the smallpox, so the Lord hath cleared our title to what we possess." -Letter written in Boston from John Winthrop to Sir Nathaniel Rich Mounting Conflict with Native Americans by John Winthrop (05/22/1634) Which statement best describes the colonist’s attitude towards Native Americans?

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

The given text is taken from John Winthrop's letter to Sir Nathaniel in 1634. In his letter he described about the rising conflict with the Natives. He described about the deaths inccurred on the Natives because of epidemic of small pox.

Through this letter we can infer that the colonist's attiude towards the Natives was that they felt that had a calling to reach out to the Natives and preach Christianity to them.

This claim is evident in the last line of the letter in which Winthrop writes that the <em>'Lord has cleared their title.'</em>

So, the correct answer is option D.

Gelneren [198K]

c. Separation of Powers

Madison refers to all of the power of a government in one branch or in one person's power is how corruption and tyranny exist against a country's people. He would be supporting the idea of separating the powers between people so no one person had all the power.

The US creates separation of powers through the three branches of the federal government. The executive branch contains the president, their staff, and cabinet members. The legislative branch contains the Congress and the power to create laws. The judicial branch contains the court system which has the power to interpret and apply the laws of the land.
