SWINDLER5 R0B INDIANS
LAND GRABBERs LOOK UPON
 THEM AS LEGITIMATE PREY.
Allotments Purchased Alter the Death of Owners at Rtdicu-
 ious Prices

Sulphur Ok-tIt seems that every inch of land owned by Indians is looked upon as the legitimate prey of the land grabbers. This statement was made by member of the com mittee appointed by the house of rep resentattyes to investigate Indian land contracts.
 Besides the charges of Senator T. P. Gore tbat an offer of S50.000 bribe was made to him to boost the MeMurray contracts in congress, the committee has been inquiring into other land conditions.
 Some of the land grabbers' schemes certainly will be called to the attention of congress" said a committeeman. "One man. we have found out, has become rich He kept list of the Indians who owned allot- ted land. Whenever all Indian died he rushed into court, had a guardian appointed, and, with the connivance of the guardian demanded that the land be sold under a ridiculously low valuation for a few hundred dollars. He has bought whole sections of land. This man, who is only one of many starting with no capital, who now owns 10000 acres for which he paid the Indians no adequate compensa- tion As there are in Oklahoma something like 20,000, GOO acres of In dian lands, it seems absolutely imper- ative that congress take prompt steps to prevent further land grabbing.
