tee of the senate committee ON Ia.
dian Affairs will visit Indian Territory
before the next session Of Congress.
It's mission will be- 10 look into the
disposition of the mineral lands, as
well as that Of permitting the allena.
tlon Of part Of the surplus allot
ments ~ the Indians. 4 resolution
directing that this be done was passed
by the Senate yesterday afternoon.
The committee will be composed OF
Ave members. Senators Clarke Of Wy.
omlng. who offered the resolution. and
Senators Long Of Kansas. Brandigee
Of Connecticut. Teller Of Colorado and
stone OF Missouri.
The committee Is also authorized TO
hold hearings in Washington during
the recess Of the Senate. but is not
apt to avail itself Of this privilege. at
least not until later In the fall. Sen
ator Clark said yesterday afternoon
that he could not say even approXima-
tly when the committee would visit the
Territory. for the reason that the
members would first have To deter.
mine when II would be convenient for
them to go.
The committees notion of Just what
kind of inquiry II will make Is rather
vague The fact Is the whole Senate
has been much pcrplexed by the prob
lens growing out of the conditions In
Indian Territory. and II will go more
In the hope than In the expectation
that II will be able To gather such In
formation as To the situation Of affairs
and the disposition OF the people as
will facilitate EOme settlement Of the
questions which. at this session, were
set aside largely because Of lack OF
knowledge The chief obstacle "a
the alienation OF surplus allotments
was the suspicion that there are some
richer mineral lands outside than In
the segregated area. The president
has suggested that the Federal Gov
ernment ought TO pttchase these coal
lands and lease them as a means OF
preventing their monopolization.
Mr. La Toilette is an advocate OF
this policy. and there are number OF
other Senators who look favorably on
H. The question is certain to come
up during the next session OF Congress
and Il Is not unlikely 20 be one OF the
big questions that will confront IT,
For this reason IL was thought adyis
