Indian RiII

Mr.. la Toilette Addresses Senate on
indian Bill.
Washington, March 3.-The senate
began its session by agreeing to the
conference report on the joint resolu-
ton astending the tribal government
Of the fndian tribes in Indian Terri

The bill for the settlement of the
affairs Of the Five Civilized tribes of
Indians was then laid before the sen
ate, Mr.. La Follettes amendment pro
hibiting the sale of coal lands in In
dian Territory to railroad companies
being the pending question.
Mr.. La Toilette continued his speech
in support of the proposition He said
senators had said to him that his
amendment went too far, but, meet
ing that contention, he said that legis.
lation to be effective must be positive:
that to attempt to do less than is pro-
husks instead Of the kernel to the
people who were crying out for relief.
Mr.. La Toilette laid especial stress
upon the necessity Of prohibiting rail
road stockholders from acquiring the
lands. It had been said that if the
railroad companies want the coal
lands they will get them regardless of
what congress may do. He could not
agreeato that doctrine. 81 want he
said, ssto put on record the protest of
one individual against the doctrine
that the railroad companies can Sc
cure the mastery of any of the ma
tional products of the country so as to
interfere with their being fair and
even handed transporters Of the prod
ucts Of the country. I would write it
in the statutes that the railroad com
panies must be common carriers and
nothing else and write it so as to
make it effective"
