Good Cause for GIfeKauce- Viola
ton Of Guardianship Confidence.

Omaha, April % Two hundred and
ten Of the Thurston county settlers
have been summoned TO appear in the
federal court at Omaha in Il case
wherein the Flourney company asks a
permanent injunction restraining Cap
tain Beck, agent of the Winnebago
Indians, from ejecting settlers on the
reservation who have subleased In
dian lands from that company. The
case has been a feature of disturbance
on the reservation for months. 1t will
be tried on its merits today. United
States District Attorney Sawyer, who
las charge Of the case for the gov
eminent, asserts that there is danger
of trouble from the Indians unless
the litigation Is adjusted one way or
the other at an early day He has
just returned from the reservation
and is inclined to think the danger
Is imminent. Conversation with others
ELECTED the fact that is was with real
difficulty that pacific members of the
tribes have counseled and enforced
patience and obedience TO the wishes
of Captain Beck, who fayors a peace
full settlement Of the difficulty.
Captain Beck said the Indians had
good cause for grievance. Even money
collected for Indian children had not
been paid. It is clear violation
of guardianship confidence, and when
an Indians child is wronged 1t gen
prglly finds resentment in the hearts
of the tribe
