The daily chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Ind. Ter. [Okla.]) 1898-1902, 1901-04-26

The republican executive COM
mittee succeeded in their mode Of
disciplining United States Marshal
Bennett, who is also a member of
the territorial committee.
When the committee met ia
January they requested the mar
shal to turn the dem ocratic depu-
ties and assistant marshals, etc.,
from his office and to give their
places to "good republicans Of the
northern district"
Mr.. Bennett smiled, sawed a
little wood, and still the federal
prisoners were being fed by a
democrat whose "pickings" are
said to ata0ant to about $4,000 q
year before division. At yester-
days meeting Mr.. Bennett was
present and when be asked that
the committee endorse him for re-
appointment there was stormy
few moments. lie was told plain
ly that the committee not only
would refuse to endorse him, but
would, as a body, protest against
his re-appointment if he did not
promise, and promise "good and
hard upon his honor" that be
would remove the Objectionable
democrats and give their positions
to republicans.
1t is said that Mr.. Bennett
promised and all be wanted was q
little time to get rid Of them grad
ually.
An authentic report is to the ef-
fleet that the marshal gave his
word that be would not have q
democrat in his department at The
end of four months. The commit
tee then adopted resolution en-
dorsing his candidacy for reap
pointment.

THE JUNK ETEERS
Senate Subcommittee onIn-
dian Territory Af-
fairs Will Go
SOUTH TOMORROW.
They Will Tour The Country and
Study Conditions But The IT.
reverent Assert That Their
Visit is to Choose Allotments
And Look For "Plums.

The sub committee of the senate
on Indian Affairs are expected to
pass south over the Katy tomor-
row on their way to Muskogee.
From there they will make tour
of the territory on atrip tor the os-
tensible purpose OF examining con-
ditions. Some people, however, are
irreverent enough to assert that
the gentlemen are coming down
after their allotments and will see
for themselves the trees upon
which the choice "plums" tgrow.
The members of the sub-com-
mittee who will compose the party
will include Senators Joseph V.
Quarles, of Wisconsin; Porter j.
McCumber, of South Dakota; Jo-
seph L. Rawlins, of Utah, and
John L. McLaurin, Of South Da-
kota. With theparty will be Mil
ton W. Blumberg, one of the Of
fetal reporters of senate debates
and one OF the most expert short
hand writer's at the national capt.
tai.
The party expects to be in the
territory for several weeks. It is
not the intention Of the COMMITTEES
to let it be known what it's plans
for route will be, as it desires to
view conditions as they may be
found without preparation for
their coming. One of the main
objects of the trip will be to OBJ
serve the workings OF the Dawes
commission. Each of the mem
bers Of the Dawes commission will
be seen, and they will place be-
fore the senators the exact status
of the work in the territory among
the five civilized tribes, with {
view to enlightening them in pass
ing upon future requests for legis-
lation which comes from thesouth'
west.
1t has been contended by those
who have interested themselves
in legislation for the benefit Of th'
Indians that a majority OF the
members Of both house and sen
ate do not interest themselves il
Indian affairs, and are not in po
sition to act on desired legislatiox
because of unfamiliarity with con
ditions in the Indian country. /
is to meet this lack of knowledge
that the committee comes to th'
territory. The first point wher
they will assemble is at Muskoge
on the 29th inst.
