Kaw Indian Payment.

The farce of paying the Kaw Indians
their annuity came off the present week.
The Indians received about $4,000 in hand,
the balance-amounting to some six or seven
thousand dolars-was taken from the table
by the direction of the Agent, and paid
over to traders. The Indians submitted
very reluctantly to this novel mode of pay
ment. It is alleged that certain parties, in
Guiding the Agent, had previously induced
the Indians to buy goods, during the winter,
when they were in dire need of the support
which they usually received from their pay
ment-which, except this extraordinary
payment, came off in the months of Septem-
Der OF Ocober--thus affording means to
clolhe and feed themselves at a season of the
year when they could not hunt to advan
tage, and gain subsistence on the Plains.
These are times when Government officials,
and others having little brief authority, do
very much as they please, and there seems
to be no power to call them to account.
The Kaw Indians have certain and indispu-
table rights on their Reserve, and their cap
ital consists in the value of the lands that
are now held in trust by the Government,
sud to be sold for their benefit This fund
Is now being spent on men in the employ OF
the Government, and nobody knows what
these men accomplish beyond their pay of
some So per day and travelling expenses,
to do what might eaisly be done by the
Aansas Indian Agent proper, without any
considerable sacrifice of time or convenience.
The farce, when fully played out. will re-
suit in the Indians being swindled and a
few unconscionable sharks making good
thing Gas they call it) out of the operation.
Ii is due to the public, to the community
and to the Agent himself, that he should ex-
plain his present suspicious position.
