From the Philadelphia Record.
There is no authority to make the
leases these men have obtained but
congress; but the legislative power
has been carefully avoided and igno-
red in their procurement. Even were
they regular in form there could be
no countenanclng lease like that to
the Colorado Live Stock company,
which disposes with six million acres
-avast principality-for merely n
nominal annual rental. The unauthor-
lied and illegal operation of which
these fraudulent leases are the result
should be at once disvowed by the
Interior department, aud every pre-
caution should be,taken not only to re-
store the Indians the land which they
have been dcfrauded, but also TO pre-
vent by lasting and eilectual means

such magnificent larceny and CONVEX
