INDIANS WANT LANDS
Prepare Memorial Asking Congress to
Right Wrong.

Port Townsend, Wash, Nov. IL
After having been homeless more than
half a century. the Clallam Indians
to congress asking the government to
comply with the Indian treaty of 1855,
and to restore to them their lands. One
squaws met in council and elected two
Washing ton.
making a last effort to enforce, stip-
ulates that the Clallams abandon their
lands which extended from a point near
Cape Flattery to Hood Canal and re-
ceive in exchange 3.S40 acres at Point
No Point. The Indians were to move
from their native lands within one year
from the PRONUNCIATION of the treaty.
This was done, but when they arrived
at Point No Point they found the gov
eminent had given possession of their
new reservation to another tribe, and
they were unable to take possession.
Since then they have been homeless.
The Clallams have made appeals to
the government to right the wrong, but
received nothing but promises until a
few months ago, when the government
made an offer to give them land in the.
Quinault reservation reserving the
right to remove the timber. The offer
is not satisfactory to the Indians, who
want the government to comply with
the original treaty. The squaws took a
prominent part in the council and were
leaders in debate insisting that the
tribe stand firm and demand its rights.
