GeneraIPope Report.

detailed history of the Indian troubles in
Colorado and New Mexico, which he states
has not been wholly settled lie contributes
the outbreak of the Utes to tho determined
purpose of the Interior department
TO eiiec. the removal of this band to San
Carlos agency, in Arizona, and says, 81 do
not know tho reason Of the Interior depart
ment for insisting upon this removal, but Ger.
tainly they should be Ontent to Justify the
great trouble and severe losses OCCASION
ed by the attempts TO coerce the removal.
The situation in tho Indian territory is com.
plicated by the fact that we have
not only to secure safety against
any Indian outbreaks or raids
upon the settlements of Texas and Kansas,
but also to protect the territory against the
invasion of white immigrants and SETTLERS
who seemed determined to settle in such part
of it as they consider open to preemption
claims. In relation to the attempt of Captain
Paine to colonize the Indian territory, Pope
saws: at is certain that Csptsin Paine and
his followers fully believe in their right to
make such settlement in the Oklahoma dis
trict AS they appear, and he doubts not
they are in, to test the question In the United
States courts 1t is very desirable that the
question of their right to settle in the Indian
territory be passed dpon as soon aspossible."
