Ip,pector PoIIoek's Grievances.
There is considerable unfavorsble com.
ment in Interior Department official cir
clcs over the recent letter of Indian In
spector Pollock, who some time ago was
suspended by order OF Secretary Teller.
His criticism of Indian Commissioners
Price are regarded as uukind and an uu-
grateful act. 1t is now regarded as certain
| that Pol ock's suspension will amount to
virtual dismissal, s cr.tary Teller having
said that should Pollock take 70 the news
pspers to air his alleged grievances In
matter to which the public was not party,
that he would be compelled to dispense
| With his services. There is excellent au-
| ,boriIy for the statement that had Pollock
submitted ouietIy TO 4 suspension, in a te =
| weeks he would have been relnstated.
