INDIANS Of SANTA ROSA
SEEK TO ENJO|N LANE
Claimed That Department Of In
terror Desires to Issue Land
Patents in Town.

The town of Santa Rosa. Ariz., in
habited by Papago Indians. has filed
suit in the District Supreme Court for
an injunction to prevent Secretary Lane
Of the Interior Department and Gay
Tallman, commissioner of the general
land office. from issuing patents of land
within the boundaries of the town. The
land in controversy is worth 100000.
The court is told that from time I'M
memorial and before the first discoveries
by the Spanish explorers in America the
town of Santa Rosa has been in existence
and inhabited by Papago Indians. The
crown Of Spain during its sovereignty
over that portion of the United States
recognized and in no manner disputed,
il is said, the rights of the Indians to the
property The same course was pursued
by the Mexican government, 1t Is alleged
which recognized the Inhabitants as Next
can citizens.
Say Area Belongs to Them.
The land is located within the bound
aries of the Gadsden purchase, but the
inhabitants claim that the treaty OF
Guadalupe Hidalgo guaranteed estab'
lished property rights. Under their
construction of that treaty the Indians
claim the area of the town belongs to
them.
A different view is taken by Score
tary Lane, who claims, it is stated
that the Indians had only use" ir
the land and that the title passed to
the United States with the Gadsder
purchase.
The department also alleges that {
private land claims commission fol
Arizona was appointed and that nc
claim was sought to be established By
the Papago Indians. The law estab.
fishing the commission provided linn
itation of two years, after which al
unestablished claims were to be barred
Any claim now made by the Indians
would require action by Congress, the
department held.
Declare Land Is offered.
The Indians complain to the court
that under this ruling land within the
bounds of the town is being offered
for entry by the government and some
patents already attempted to be Is
sued. Unless restrained by the court
It Is claimed. the department by grant
ing this land will work irreparable In
jury to the Indians.
Attorney Henry P. Blair is loca
counsel for the Indians.

Savings banks. as rule, will show
but few important changes, while the
trust companies, by reason of the with
drawal of funds of other institutions,
to a certain extent, will show unimpor-

It is an invariable fact that July, Au-
gust and September are not cumulative
months. Vacations cut into savings and
also commercial accounts. Crop move
ment also reduces cash on hand. The
