WASHINGTON. Feb. lo.-The military
committee c>lled up the senate bill au-

Passed.

whole on the bill to provide for the APP
pointmcnt Of an assistant secretary OF
war. After sos1s debate the 81. vas fay
orAblY reported to the house and the Ok
lAhoms bill taken up.
Hooker CAV notice that he would
strike out ali of the bill after section rs
~(providing q judicial system for the In
dian territory. He said the bill pro-
posed 4 grand robbery eaualled in the
history of civilization only by the spoila
ton Of Poland. He declared the bill
violated no property rights Of t~heIndians.
and in his opinion there could be no
crime against civilization to leave 80. 900
people in a territory without any govern
ment at all
Perkins said there was not a single pro-
vision of the bill thai infringed on the
the rights of the Indians.
Morey said the bill should include all
of the Indian territory. There wa no
necessitv for . division Of that magnif-
cent territory. The Cherokees were the
only nation obiecting to the extension of
the territory lines to Oklahoma, aud it
was . significant fact that not an Indian
appeared to protest The men who had
appeared before the committee protesting
against including the Cherokee lands in
the new territory were all white men.
Springer briefly maintained the abso-
lutte right Of the government to the land
embraced within the Oklahoma lines.
He said there was not an Indian living on
the outlet and the lands we're leased to q
cattle com pany.
At this point the committee rose and
the house adjourned.
