| Washington Feb 1O.--Eor the fourth
| time the house has passed bill to re-
| mburse the Santee Sioux Indians for
! defaulted payments on u treaty under
! the terms of which they sold some OF
! The richest lana in Iowa and adjoining
| states to the government for consid-
Grafton of from l 10 80 cents an acre.
Three times before the bill passed
| the house, but was rejected by the
senate because it did not recognize
exorbitant claims of attorneys for fees.
WHAT its fate will be in the senate this
time is uncertain, but it was limited IN
the house debate that If the senate
continues to fight for fees for the at
torneys there will be some plain speak
ing in the house about the activity OF
two men formerly in the senate OF
the United States who are now lobby
ing for the bill" The quotation Is
from remarks made by Congressman
Mann
Prior to 1887 the Santee Indians
owned a large section Of land In ILL.,
nois. They ceded it TO the government
for the consideration of an annuity OF
SIS 900 a year forever. In 1851 they
ceded all the land they held in Iowa
and Minnesota tor a consideration OF
$4,000 a year, to be paid for fifty
years,
During the Indian outbreak of 1862
these Indians went on the Warpath.
al ta1
with them. and they have not been
paid a dollar upon these annulties
since this abrogation. Congress re-
stored the annuities Of other Indian
bands, forgiving them their depreda-
tions. but the Santee Sioux have re-
manned the lone outcasts. and while
cuugless believes in justice to them
they should be paid, efforts to get d
bill similar to the one now pending
passed have failed for twenty 1--WE
years owing t. contending factions and
attorneys who sought big fees.
