CLEANING OUT
The GRAFTERS
BrOsious and the Indian Rights
Association Still After
Dawes Commission.

William O. Beall head Of the Choe-
taw division Of the Dawes commission
and recently slated for secretary 70
the commission, 10 succeed Allison
Aylesworth. is IN Washington looking
after territorial matters His selec-
tion as secretary IS being opposed aud
notice has been given the Secretary
Of the Interior by 5. NJ. Broslous that
statement OF objections to Beall will
be filed az once. Through B-osius 1t
seemingly Is proposed TO force eonsid-
Grafton upon the Secretary OF the In
terror, who has taken a strong aversion
10 the Indian Rights people, repre-
sented by Broslus. eliminating In the
employment Of Bonaparte.
The objections to Beall are based on
his Official action at the head Of the
Choctaw division. There IS little
doubt but prompt attention win be
given the matter, together with some
other things Of recent development.
Il Is now clearly defined that the
strong aversion to Office shown hy the
members Of the Dawes commission IS
due % the Brosius report, followed by
the Bonaparte recommendation. 1t
is quite well understood Why the butt
end Of the report should be left un-
covered while the small end Of It fires
Others openly. But this Is tie plan
that has been followed The result IS
possibly better, Tor Il makes plain
that the power OF the investigator Is
effective.
Some more charges are booked %
come from the Indian Rights people.
II is not known whether Broslus Is to
be the responsible agent or not. But
the cleaning up Of things grating has
not ended merely commenced.
