Miller of Minnesota Contends That

PAYS RESPECTS TO AGENTS

Former Speaker Cannon and Repre-
sentative Miller of Minnesota both had
something to say about Indian claim
agents in Washington in the long and un-
finished debate in the House Of Repre-
sentatives yesterday over an old-time In
dian claim bill which has been framed to
make the United States pay for savage
along the western frontier
In the days when the prairie schooners
were being carried westward on the tide
OF empire.
This bill comes up before the House
and although its proponents
say it carries only $5OO.oOO. it's opponents
say that If the bin is enacted the govern
ment will have to pay perhaps $2,OOO.0OO
for the harm done to the ancestors of peo-
pie now living in the states which were
the scenes of Indian slaughter and ruin.
Fears for the Treasury.
Mr.. Cannon let it be known that he
thinks this claim is merely the "camers
nose and that If passed the entire un-
calmly beast will jump into Congress and
carry OF many millions, in claims. He
said he is afraid the bill will reappear

presumably have contingent fees in this
