Grazing Lease
Funds Being
Paid AT Agency

Will begin payment of grazing

The sum is approximately 500,
900, it was said at the Agency
administration office yesterday.
$40, 600 will be paid out locally.
the balance to be mailed to men,
bers living off the reservation.
In comprehensive letter ex-
planning the grazing fee situation,
which is being mailed to Tribal
members, Agency Supt. Guy
Robertson expresses regret at the
delay of the payment and attrib-
utes it to a partly unsettled con-
troversy that arose between the
Bureau of Indian Affairs and the
Tribal Council over the increas-
ing of grazing lease fees.
Some of the pertinent excerpts
of Supt Robertson's letter are as
follows:
These are some of the reasons
it is not all ready for payment
now:
! On August 81, 1850 we asked
the Tribal Council to permit US
to increase the leasing rates from
the old r Of $3.50 per head
yearlong for cows and 80 cents
yearlong for sheep to S7.20 for
cows and ST. 80 for sheep.
/ On September IL, 1850, t h e
Tribal Council passed a resolution
establishing the rate at $3.50 for
cows and S1.20 for sheep.
Our investigation showed that
the average rat e in Montana
were more than $7.2O for cows
and $3.50 for sheep and we could
not agree to the low prices of
81. so and S1.20 which the Tribal
Council demanded. The lands
belong to all the Blackfeet people
and they are entitled to the best
price we can get for them. In
Mr.. Pambrun statement Of facts
submitted to the Commissioner on
October &c, 1850. he stated that
approximately on e f i f h of
the grazing land was allocat-
ed to Indians n d fOur-fifths
receive the benefit of competitive
bidding. This would indicate that
for every Indian who would be
benefited by the low prices, four
non-lndians or competitive bid
ders would receive the benefit
and it would all be at the expense
of the Blackfeet people who own
the land. This seemed to US to be
very unfair to the Blackfeet
people.
| Up to this i m e the Tribal
Council has not sent any leases
for Tribal lands within the graz
ing units to the Indian Office. If
the Tribal Council had not insist
ed that you be paid 81. so for cows
and Sl.20 for sheep for your land
instead of t h $7.20 and $3.50
which you should receive. your
lease money would h ave been
ready May l. AS you can see by
this letter the matter is not settled
yet. The Chairman of the Tribal
Council informed that they were
acting under instructions from
Mr.. Felix Cohen.

Her election to the City Council
Job came right after the war. The
clubwomen put her there. she says.
She had served only year of
her two-year term when Senator
Frear's election brought him to
Washington and she resigned be-
cause she felt that her real job
was to be with her husband
The Frears have two children
Fred, aged Is. and an 8-year r-old
daughter, Claire Louise. Because
she and Senator Frear thought it
would interrupt their school life
too much to move them to Wash
ington and since home is just a
few hours drive away, Mrs. Frear
decided to leave them in Dover
in the care of a dependable family
housekeeper.
Every week end, the Frears make
the trip home to see the children.
And often during the week, Mrs.
Frear drives to Dover for the day.
Neither the Senator nor Mrs.
F'rear minds autoing a bit and
both love to travel.
