Bill 10 Settle the Claims Of Citizens Of ansns.
The House Committee on Claims have made a
report on the bill authorizing the appointment OF
commissioner for the settlement OF the claims OF
citizens OF Kansas. These are claims upon the gov
ernment Tor Indemnity for losses of property by clti-
xens OF the territory AT the hands mainly OF govern
ment onlclas or parties acting under them, at a
period when, under the organic act, they were
made the legal wards OF the government,
and could look to no other authority
Tor redress. Much oi the property for
winch Indemnity is claimed Is proved
to have been taken for public use without the con-
sent OF the owners ana caims for such losses are
recognized by the highest law officers known 10 our
governments; but still more OF 1t was destroyed by
the bands OF punderers, in some cases called q
posse, In other cases military forces, under the lead
OF United states marshals or military commanders
acting under authority OF the general government.
And now II would be the most utter fallacy To an
nounce that the government may deny these
parties compensation OF redress anu at
tempt 10 fsubstitute for Justice somc vague
declaration OF public law that Is only
operative between beliigerenr nations independent
Powers. In view OF all the facts the committee re-
commend the massage Of bill appointing the Judge
of the United States Circuit Court for rhe district
