Business Men
Hear F. S. Lint
Tells Plans of State Purchasing
Department. Unfavorable
to Local Merchants.

F. 5. Lint, state purchasing agent
was an Orofino visitor this week
and met with the merchants of the
county seat, III the Orofino Club
rooms, Monday afternoon, to discuss
the new state system of purchasing
supplies for the several state insti-
tutions. 1t is intended to call for
bids, to be opened at Boise, for tha
entire state.
The proposed system is not satis-
factory to the Orofino merchants in
bidding for supplies for the North
Idaho Sanitarium located at this
place. Heretofore bids were ad-
dressed to Superintendent j. w.
Owens and opened at the asylum.
1t is almost necessary for bidders to
be on hand with samples and also
to be present to explain or defend
their bids under the new system 1t
would be necessary to SEND samples
to Boise, and possibly, under some
circumstances. bidders would almost
have to attend in person to guard
their interest.
The Oroflno merchants feel that
they will be greatly handicapped
under the arrangement of opening
bids In Boise, while the business men
of Boise, and vicinity would have
an undue advantage on account OF
their proximity to the state capitol.
, Again, big contractors might,
through collusion, drive smaller
competitors from the field and by
: arranged combination finally In
crease their prices.
The Orofino sanitarium stands
first in the state as an economically
managed state institution, and this
enviable record can be ascribed to
w. Givens and the reasonable
prices charged by the merchants of
this locality in furnishing supplies.
When the asylum first located here
/ there We're bids from firms outside
y OF Orofino who finally dropped from
: the list on account of the Orofino
$ merchants being on the ground and
: with lower prices. Prices were how
d ever kept down by local competition
$ and the close buying of the superin-
). tendent.
d All the Orofino merchants ask Is
o that bids and samples be examined
at the asylum where they will take
their chances with bidders from any
part of the state.
The creation and maintenance OF
"a purchasing department is move

economy, as prices can be scruten'
! lied and compared with purchase.

W ant Land Civ
en- to Indians
Treaty Expires Next Year and
Will not Be Extended Ac-
cording to Information.

A great many farmers in the
recently asked me to investigate and
lind out in what way the people in
this territory can assist in getting
as much of the Indian land as
possible turned over to Indians who
are capable of handling their bust
ness at the expiration of the treaty
next year.
Much of this land has been very
poorly farmed under the present
lease system, the leasee having paid
very little attention to keeping
down weeds. eradicating pests, max
ing improl ements, etc, and farmers
feel that if the patents We're given
to the Indians and this land made
subject to taxation, these conditions
would soon change.
l have taken the matter up with
our Honorable Representative Bur-
ton L. French, at Washington, ID. c.
in an effort to find out what the
policy of the Indian Department
will be, in regard to giving the
Indians patent to the land, or ex-
tending the treaty.
In a recent correspondence from
Mr.. French, l am informed that un-
der the present laws the treaty will
not be extended, but that the u. S.
Indian Department has power TO
with hold the patents of land be-
longing to Indians who are not
apable handling their business, and
that it will be the policy of the
Indian Department to issue patents
! to as many Indians as possible who
can be found capable of conducting
personal affairs.
The Indian office proposes to send
Representatives of the office to
make careful inquiry into the fit
ness of the Indians to handle theil
business so that mistakes will not
be made. but Mr.. French could give
me no information as to when the
Committee will arrive, and is of the
opinion that their course will not bt
marked out for them from Washing
ton. l am of the opinion that thu
Representatives from the Indian of
flee at Washington will want to Sc
lect their source of information re
garding the Indians rather thar
| have II submitted to them but I be
lieve if the Farm Bureaus of eacl
of the counties interested were t
select or apoint Committee in eacl
county or community to Investigate
and get what information they cal
as to the Indians capability, sucl
information would be of great valu
to the investigating Representative
. when they arrive. providing the
, care to use 1t.
| There are any number of Indian
In this territory who are entirel
, capable of handling their busines
and should have patents to the land
However. there are many Indian
, who are not capable. and who,
given their patents would in
short time have their land filche
from them and be thrown upon tn
