Washington, D. c., Sept. 2S.--There

1t is because the treasury has a
stock of $2O,OO0,OOO in quarters and

RoBBING THE INDIANS,
iExorbitant Fees Charged Wards of
the Government.
Kansas City Star.


The government Is under especial obliga-
ton to prevent the robbing of the Indians
through the medium of exorbitant at
torneys' fees as we'll as to investigate the
charges of bribery made by Senator Gore
in connection with certain contracts be-
tween the Indians and their private at
torneys. ..
In all their tribal relations, at least the
Indians are wards of the government.
Therefore, in all their tribal affairs where
legal service is needed. the government
should furnish such service, and it should
be as efficient as it is possible for the
Indians to procure by any other means.
There should be no place in the prosecu-
ton of any claims advanced by the In
dams for a private attorney. He is an in
terloper. He is a wholly unnecessary mid
dleman. At least. il the government is
not now prepared to furnish as good SER
vice, free Of COST to the Indians as he can
get by paying enormous fees to private
lawyers, then the government should put
itself in readiness to render such service.
The Indians should not be able to get
from the government, through private at
torneys with influence in Washington, any
thing to which they are not entitled. And
anything to which they are entitled should
be procuTable through attorneys pro-
vided by the government.
The group of attorneys presenting the
present Indian contracts for approval are
said to have a 10 per cent arrangement
with the Indians which would net them
several million dollars in one instance
and still more millions in another II the
contracts are allowed. The same interests
already have taken from the Indians
$75O,O0O for procuring the governments APP
prevail of certain contracts represented In
a single case.
Yet the attorney general of the United
States, head of a cabinet department who
represents all the people-that is, the gov
ernment-recenves only $4,000 per year
He would have to serve fifty years to
earn as much as one OF the private at
torneys iii the present case is reputed to
have received for former service involv.
ing much smaller gross fees.
The Department OF the Interior employs
a special solicitor for the Indians. 1t pays
this man $500 per year. 1t would take
this solicitor 100 years to earn, in this OF.
fetal capacity, what one OF the private
attorneys received for single transaction
II this man is not competent to procure
for the Indians all they are entitled to
then some other man should be employed
II the pay is not enough to procure the
right kind OF man, then the pay should
be increased. The government should elm
mate the private lawyer from the Indian
business at least SO far as tribal affairs
! are concerned.
| For that matter the same thing should
apply to all private contracts with the In.
dians, tribal or individual. Indeed, the In
dian fee scandal is only another argument
In favor of the government-paid counse
in general, whether in criminal or civil
cases,
