Browns Valley Footprints: Much

fees received by Mr.. Crossfield, for
his services in securing the opening
of reservation and the payment to
the Indians of the $50O.0O0 due them,
and many congratulations have been
expressed by his friends in all parts
of the country. They will now be
sorry to learn that, all reports to the
contrary, Mr.. Crossfeld has not and
will not receive one cent of this sum
for his very valuable services. The
act provides that all attorneys whose
bills for services had been approved
by the secretary of the interior would
be paid upon the distribution of the
money. Through some oversight Mr..
Crossfeld's bill was not put through
the necessary process, and from this
mere technicality he will go without
the fees that are justly due him. He
has received few hundred dollars
from this town to pay part of his ex-
penses, but his valuable time and in
fluence will go unrequited. There is
not man who has any knowledge of
the work he has performed who will
not deeply regret this i'll luck and
