Office report Of March g 1890. recon-
mended approval of inspector Wrights
recommendation as follows:
I'm view Of the fact that Mr. oPrter IS
attorney for, and partner Of, Mr.. Nor
ris in the town site transaction. attorney
for the coal company, and also for the
railway company, and that ne did not
advise Inspector Wright Of the business
relations existing between him and Mr.
Morris when he complained of Mr..
French's action It would seem that he
has acted in bad faith. Therefore this
Office conours in Inspector Wright's sug-
geston, and recommends that the tenn
porary. permission heretofore granted Mr. I
Edwards. or the Fl .se. Pen Coal and Min
ing company, to take coal from certain
Cherokee lands be revoked"
