AN indian REPORT
Committee Of Senator's Investigating
Conditions In Territory Announ- !.
ces Its Recommendations.
AGAINST FOREST RESERVE
Finds HIteheoek's Action Without
Warrant Of Law---Would Sell Sur
face Of Coal Lands--7emove
Sestrlctlons.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE selec
committee Of the senate appointe,
during the last session Of congress +
investigate conditions In Indian Terri
tory made its report to the senat,
Wednesday through its chairman, Sen
ator Clark of Wyoming. The com
mittee's recommendation may b,
summarized as follows:
That the surface of the 100000 acre.
of coal lands segregated In 1902 b.
sold, but that the mineral rights be in
definitely retained as the property o.
the Indians.
That all restriction be removed from,
the surplus lands Of all citizens Of the
five civilized tribes except minors.
That the restrictions as to home
steads of the members of the tribes
who are not Of Indian blood, includ
ing inter-married whites and freed men
be removed.
That the restrictions on the home
Steads Of Indians of either full or miE
ed blood should be retained.
On the question Of restrictions, the
committee says that the effect Of
past legislation has already clouded
and II unrepealed will continue to
cloud the title of much land in Indian
Territory.
TT WILL" the committee adds, "pre
vent the Indians from obtaining a fair
price for their lands and has been and
will continue to be fruitful 'source
Of dishonest transactions. 1t will not
prevent sales being made at the e&
piration of the periods designated IN
the supplemental agreements and has al.
ready resulted In contracts being made
for such sales. This provision is gen.
orally considered to be invalid and
should be repealed"
In this connection the COMMITTEES
points out that the preservation Of
homesteads will insure sufficiency OF
lands to the Indians, giving familleA
from 240 to 900 acres and In the Choc.
taw and Chickasaw nations from 49,
to 10000 acres.
With an oil-producing capacity of
100000 barrels daily and only two pipe
lines, the committee reaches the con-
clusion that Indian Territory's trans
portstion facilities are entirely too
limited. Evidently" II says, what
they need is more pipe lines"
Your committee approves Of strin.
gent regulations to prevent rnonopo-
lies, but they should be Of such a char
acter that they would not work
forfeiture Of property without due pro.
cess Of law. We believe congress
should provide appropriate general
regulations with reference to oil and
gas leases and the transportation Of
said commodities In the Indian Terri
tory"
Referring to Secretary Hitchcock's
of land for forest reserve
the committee says:
"The committee has carefully con
Iidered this matter and Is of opinion
hat the order Of withdrawal was with.
tut authority of law. The agreement
With the tribes and the act of congress
approved July 81, 1902, authorized and
ERECTED the allotments to be made as
Don as practicable and that law the
