The government is under especial
obligation TO prevent the robbing OF
the Indians through the medium OF
exorbitant attorneys fees. as well as
to investigate the charges of bribery
made by Senator Gore in connection
with certain contracts between the In
dians and their private attorneys.
In all their tribal relations, at least.
the Indians are wards of the govern
ment. Therefore. in all their tribal af-
fairs where legal service is needed. the
government should furnish such serv.
ice. and it should be as efficient as it
|is possible for the Indians to procure
by any other means. There should be
mo place in the prosecution Of any
claims advanced by the Indians for a
private attorney. He is an interloper.
He is a wholly unnecessary middle
man. At least. if the government is
not now prepared to furnish as good
service, 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 pri-
vate attorneys with influence in Wash.

entitled. And anything 70 NAieh they
are entitled should be prOcursble
through attorneys provided by the gov
eminent
The group Of attorneys presenting
the present Indian contracts foE ap-
proyal are said to have a 10 per cent
arrangement with the Indians which
would net them several million dol
lars in one instance and still more
millions in another. if the contracts
are allowed. The same interests al
ready have taken from the Indians
threefourths million dollars for pro-
curing the governments approval of
certain contracts represented in a
Single case.
Yet the attorney general Of the
United States. head of a cabinet de-
partment, who represents all the peo-
ple-thaf is. the government receives
only s12.0 600 per year. He would have
TO serve fifty years TO earn as much
as onc of the private attorneys in the
present case is reputed to have re-
ceived for a former service involving
much smaller gross fees.
The department of the interior en-
ploys a special solicitor for the In
dians 1t pays this man $4,000 year.
1t would take this solicitor 12O years
to earn. in this official 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
If the pay is not enough to procure
the right kind of man. then the pay
should be increased. The government
should eliminate the private lawyer
from the Indian business. at least 50
far as tribal affairs are concerned
For that matter. the same thing
should apply to all private contracts
with the Indians. tribal or individual.
Indeed. the Indian fee scandal is only
another argument in favor Of the gov
ernment-paid counsel in general.

There are sufficient reasons why
the Grandfather Clause should be
adopted but the democratic press bu-
reau is OVERRIDING the matter somewhat
when it assumes that the Cherokee
country is in danger Of negro domina-
Ition. The Cherokees have never miS-
ed with the negro race and in several
|of the counties embraced in the old
Cherokee nation have practically no
negroes in them. Adair county for
instance at the last state election had
only one negro voter in the county
The negro win never control the north
east part of the state.

1t was Bird Mcclure who stated in
Ia speech here before the last state
election that if the democrats carried
the election land would be as cheap in
Oklahoma as it is in Mississippi and
lon the other hand If the republicans
were successful land here would be
as high as it is in Ohio and Indiana.
The facts are generally against Nc
Guire.

GARNER IS STILL ALIVE.

Bonneville, March 4.-Will Garner, negro, was to have been hung in the jailyard at this place today, but the original schedule was not carried out. Governor Donaghey, during the month of February, commuted his sentence to 21 years Imprisonment.
 Work on the scaffold has been al- most completed and the 25 invitations to the execution had been issued and accepted But instead of swinging from a scaffold his lifeless body sway ed by the breezes which stir the lofty pines of this section of Arkansas, Garner is now doing daily labor for the state. He was convicted of mur- dering Will Springer last October, and it was believed every effort to save his neck had failed.

PLAN TO ENTERTAIN
 AZ. W. C. CONVENTION

The Local Nine of the Shakespeare Club met with Mrs. Jo Frauenthal on Tuesday afternoon to discuss and ar range business connected with the en- tertainment of the A. F. w. C., in April These little meetings are full of interest and enthusiasm. Each member of the Local Nine is chair man of some special committee. One feature of the entertainment of the Federation, agreed upon at this meet ing, was that each hostess should pro vide box luncheons for her guests for the noon hour, so that there need be no returning home for dinner. Of course this is not arbitrary, but will probably be a great convenience to those ladies who wish to attend the meetings of the Federation.
