GORE REGRETS
HE DISCLOSED
Saved the Indians Several Millions of
Dollars-Says 1t Was Thank
less Job.

Washington, Jan. Ia, Ny experience
has demonstrated how much easier it
is to remain silent and secure than to
wage war against wrong doors of a
certain character" said Senator Gore
Of Oklahoma yesterday in his eonclud.
ing statement to the house committee
which has been investigating charges OF
attempted bribery in connection with
legislation bearing upon contracts OF
certain western attorneys with Indians,
calling for large fees.
MY fate has been the common fate
of every man who makes such dis
closure as ] felt compelled to make to
the Senate" said the senator. Il know
that all the malice and money could
do to diseredit me would be done, and
the results have justified my anticipa-
tions.'
Senator. Gore characterized the coun-
ter criticisms against him as a pro
digality of perjury" He said that he
believed silence on his part would have
cost the Indians millions Of dollars. As
it is, he believed that Indians had been
saved at least S3,000000 or S4,000,000.
Cecil Smith, the Texas lawyer who
closed the arguments in behalf Of j. +.
McMurray of Muskogee, former attor-
ney for the Choctaw and Chickasaw ma
tions. who was one of the chief bene-
ficiaries under the contracts in question,
declares that there was no evidence in
the record to connect Mr.. McMurray
in any way with the bribery which Sen
ator Gore alleged had been attempted.
Mr.. Smith said the evidence proved that
if Jacob Hamon made a proposal to pay
$4,000 to Senator Gore in return for
his influence in Congress, as charged by
the senator, the offer had been made
as Joke, or else That he proposed to
get Cores support for his own bill, and
then made deal with McMuray where
by the latter would ultimately pay
the freight"
