REJECTS INDIAN BILL
House Turns Down Senate Ap-
preparation Measure-Fraud
Charge Is Made.

When the House today took up the
conference report on the Indian appro-
priation bill, Minority Leader Mann
charged that certain Senate amend
ments operated to rob the Indians OF
their inheritance. He referred spe-
officially to one amendment providing
for the deposit Of Indian lease money.
now in the hands OF officials. with the
First National Bank OF Douglas, Ariz.
with. he said. virtually no restriction
and no provision for repayment.
THE amendment in this form is scan
dalous.' he declared, with emphasis, land
It's intent is fraudulent"
Mr.. Mann also criticised nearly q score
OF other amendments dealing with the
disposition of Indian land and providing
fees for attorneys engaged in Indian lti-
CATION.
Practically all the Senate amendments
were criticised by the House, republicans
and democrats alike joining in condemna-
ton.
Majority Leader Underwood declared
that the practice of attaching new leg
islation to appropriation bills should
never be resorted to except in the
gency existed. he declared to excuse
the new legislation fastened on the
bill by the Senate
BY n unanimous vote the House re-
jected all the Senate amendments and
demanded a conference. Representa-
tives Stephens Of Texas, Carter of Ok
lahoma and Burke of South Dakota
were named as managers for the
House.

FOR CABINET
IF WILSON IS ELECTED
Democrats in House Predict
Texans Appoint
ment.

Representative Albert s. Burleson of
Texas is being spoken OF as the Score
tary OF State III case Woodrow Wilson
becomes the next President. Democrats
all over the Houses of Representatives
are talking with each other and to Rep
resentative Burleson as to the POSSIBLE
ity-some call it the probability-of the
Texas mans being member Of the Will
son cabinet.
The devotion of the Texan to the
democratic nominee is marked to such
a degree that he is considered Will
son bulwark among the legislators in
Washington, and has done probably as
much work for Wilson as any man i'll
Congress has done for any candidate
Whether or not Woodrow Wilson, il
President. will appoint Representative
Burleson to a place in his cabinet, is, of
course. not to be predicted. The fact is.
however. that Mr.. Burleson is being talk
ed OF as a cabinet member by other
democrats. He is a member of Wilson )
campaign cabinet at least and is al
ready one of the big wheels of the demo-
crat machine which hopes to roll up to
the White House door.
Representative BurIeson, having been
a Wilson man in season and out, is in his
element now that Wilson has the nomna-
ton. Before the convention he was at
Wilson'S beck and call. having coursed
through the country from Michigan to
the Carolinas when the Princetonian
wanted work done in those localities.
incidentally. the possibility of Repre-
sentative Rurleson in the cabinet brings
up the fact that he is a democratic man
aser on tn" part of the House in the con-
ferences over the legislative executive
and judicial bill. and is one Of the bull
uarks of economy. Representative Bur
Lesson is strongly of the opinion that the
appropriation bin should stand exactly as
the House passed it.
