WILL ASK GOVERNMENT To INVESTIGATE

That n complete investigation of
the affairs of the Umatilla reservation
is to be asked of the government is
declared by those who during the
past week have been active in disclos-
ing the methods used by Agent O. C.
Edwards and w. L. Thompson, guar
dian of minor Indian .heirs. Just
what form the charges against Ed
wards and Thompson will take and
when they are to be made is not dis
closed. But 1t is understood the mat
ter will be taken up Immediately with
the department by Senator Fulton,
and that he will be given valuable
assistance by Senator Ankeny of
Washington, and by Senator Dubois
of Idaho.
The reason why the matter VII be
handled by the above-named sena-
tors is to insure a real and thorough
inquiry by the department of the in

terror. Should an ordinary complaint
be filed with the Indian bureau il is
feared 1t might meet the fate that
befell the meritorious petition OF the
county court for public roads across
the reservation.
As far as is known nothing in the
nature of criminal charges have been
preferred against Edwards or Thomp-
son, and unless local people take the
subject before the United states dis
trict attorney, ii is generally believed
that official will refrain from any ac-
ton.
j. A. Kennard, representative of the
bonding company which is upon the
bond of Agent Edwards, and also on
w. L. Thompson's guardianship bond,
has been here for several days. He is
from Tacoma. However, Mr.. Kennard
has given no public statement regard
ing his mission here.

San Francisco, Nov. Politics was
more strongly injected into the graft
investigation today than at any time
since Langdon and Heney sprung their
sensations when p. H. Mccarthy and
O. a. Tveitmoe, president and scores
tary respectively of the State Build
ing Trades Council in signed state
ments declared the sole object of the
investigators is to bring about the de-
feat OF Theo. Bell, democrat, whose
gnbe rnatoial candidacy has the in
dorsement of union labor, and place
Gillette IN the governors chair.
Tvitmoe says it is proposed to take
sufficient from Bell TO beat him, while
LangdoE is to be sustained and re-
e'ected as district attorney in order to
insure "a Peabody governor for Cal
ifornia.
Mccarthy and Tveitmoe say that
stan lard Oil, the Southern Pacific
Citizens Alliance and the republican
politicians are working both end,
against the middle in their effort &c
raise enough dust to blind the voter.
Of this state, hut that hey will not
succeed.
The Langdon people declare the
statement is entirely inconsistent Will
actual conditions, in support of which
they point to the fact that Mccarthy
and Tveitmoe supported Ruef in the
present campaign and were very
largely instrumental in bringing about
the nomination of Gillett, who is
known 20 he friendly to the Southern
Pacific.

At the instance of the trustees of
the Pendleton academy. the subject
of improving the old cemetery was
taken up by the council at its meet
ing last night and a movement is now
on to see what disposition can be
made of the abandoned burial ground.
If proper title can be secured to the
tract it will be improved and made
into park, as suggested often in the
past.
AS representatives of the academy
trustees, Congressman Ellis and Sem
ator c. ]. Smith appeared before the
meeting last evening. They were ac-
companied by President Bleakney and
Rev. H. B. Knight, financial agent Of
the school. In a brief address Judge
Ellis laid the matter before the coun-
Gil in a very reasonable manner. He
called attention TO the deplorable con-
dition at. present and said the reason
for bringing the subject up at this
time was so that a measure could be
prepared for the legislature in case
legislative action should be necessary,
before the bodies could be removed.
Following the judge. Mayor Fee ex-
pressed his views upon the question.
He had decided objections to allowing
the tract to pass into private hands,
and also declared it would be an in
suit to the dead to have the place
condemned as a public nuisance.
According to the mayor he had in
vestigated the status of the cemetery
before. and he regarded the quit-claim
deed now held by H. F. Johnson as
worthless. for the reason that a quit
claim deed cannot be given when the
donor has not title at that time.
The proposition of allowing one
grave to remain, so as to prevent the
title from reverting to the heirs of the
original donor. and to transform the
place into a public park was suggest
ed by Councilman Hinkle. This met
with favor from the trustees. and DR..
Smith suggested that the remains OF
former Congressman LaDow be left.
However, in the opinion of the
mayor such a procedure might not
hold the tract. as the city would be
doing indirectly what it cannot do di-
rectIy. He suggested that perhaps
Mrs. Raley. widow of the original
srahtor, might give warranty deed
for the tract, which act on her part
would make it possible for all the
graves to be removed and the city still
hold valid title.
Upon motion of Councilman Hiukle
the city attorney and mayor were in
structed 70 investigate the subject
further, and it was decided To secure
a conveyance of title from Mrs. Raley
If possible.
