Scores of bids will be submitted to

bids for fire engines and other fire de-
partment apparatus; bids for the steel
work on the Washington avenue bridge;

bids for minor contracts.
Most interest centers in the mean

DISPUTES INDIANS CLAIM
William Beaulieu Declares Majority
Not Represented by Wright.

Rev Charles r. Wright an Indian whose In.
dian name Is Wan-ben-oquad, or White Cloud,
tells the Pioneer Press that he carries with
him 3S3 signatures of full-blood Ch1ppewas to
petition. protesting against the recent allot-
ment of lands at White Earth This petition
Mr.. Wright will take to Washington in the
hope Of seeing the president and Secretary
Hitchcock Il and inducing them to set aside the
| allotments. He asserts the allotments were
unfair to the full l-bloods, cutover tracts and
undesirable pieces Of land falling to them.
while men Of mixed blood, non-residents, and
others got fine tracts covered with good timber.
Mr.. Wright is minister of the Episcopal
church at Cass Lake, an intelligent and edu-
Gated man.
William Beaulieu Of the White Earth reser-
walton says, however, that Mr.. Wright mis-
represents the situation; that when vote was
taken recently at White Earth on whether the
allotment should stand all but fifteen Of the
| Indians interested stood for confirming the
allotments. He does not believe that the secre-
tary will make any changes in the action of
the agent, Mr.. Michelet, who is credited with
having administered the affairs of the agency
with strict integrity in the past, who has the
confidence of the Indians in a high degree and
who is believed to have conducted this allot.
ment with absolute fairness. It may be that
some Of the mixed bloods got better land than
some OF the full-bloods. but this was no fault
