Answer:

Bradstreet hated the Native Indian and Johnson believed in a friendly relation with them.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sir William Johnson was an Irish military officer of the British army. He had a good relationship with the Native Americans in America after he arrived in the province of New York in 1738. Johnson becomes involved in trading with Indians especially with the Mohawk (the Six Nations of the Iroquois League). Johnson was given name Warraghiyagey and called him as sachem. After the French and Indian War, he was appointed as British ambassador to the Iroquois and became head of Indian Affairs for the northern colonies in America.

John Bradstreet hated the Native Indians as he calls them savages and brutes. Bradstreet did not want any relationship with the American Indians.
