East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-03-06

Deputy U. s. Marshal Blowers was
in the city Saturday for the purpose
of serving papers in the case of Will
liam Caldwell VS.. George Perringer,
G. w. Rigby, ]. ]. McKoin, ct al,
which is to be tried in the federal
court at Portland next Thursday.
The above case is in regard to the
leasing of section 80, township 8
north of range "a, E. w. NJ. Tho
above described land is allotted land
upon the reservation, and the plaint-
iff, Caldwell, claims to have leased
it in September, 1908, from the In
dian allottees for the period of two
years for the price of $3.50 per acre
per year.
The Caldwell lease is admitted to
have been made without the sanction
of the Indian agent, but is held to be
valid because of an order of the COM
missioner of Indian affairs directing
that such leases be enforced by the
Indian agents, although they were
not made in accordance with the
rules governing such leases.
The complaint also states that the
defendants, Perringer and Rigby, per-
suaded the leasers to repudiate their
contract with Caldwell, and to make
subsequent one with Perringer,
also that to accomplish this one OF
the Indians was induced to resign his
guardianship over one of the minor
allottees. and Defendant Rigby was
appointed as said guardian and as
such was party to the lease with
Perringer.
In the complaint 1t is alleged that
the plaintiff has been deprived of the
use of the land, and theIeby has suf-
fered loss of $4,000. Damages to
this amount are asked by the plaintiff
and also an injunction restraining
the defendants from interfering with
plaintiffs use of the land.
r. ]. Slater is the attorney for the
plaintiff, and the defendants are rep
resented by HALEY & Lowell and
James A. Fee.
The above case is of considerable
importance, because 1t will show the
strength of lease made without the
agents consent.
