department officials that these offers al
legged to have been made by the cattle
com pany, aud many of the most intelli-
gent Indians are perfectly aware of the
action of the United States to get these
lands; that the Indians can neither sell or
lease them without the consent of the gov
ernmen'.
Secretary Noble was questioned as to
the purpose of the government in the
event of an attempted consumation of
the proposed lease or sale. He said he
did care to discuss the matter at present,
but would say, however, that the govern
ment would recognize no competition for
these or any other lands which IL had an
interest in. II the interests of private
parties conflict with those of the govern
ment the former, he said, must certainly
be put to one side.
