After months of effort to bring about Interest of the Government officials in the Improvement of con ditions for the Indians under his jurisdiction. Supt. t K. Coe, of the local agency, announced this morn ing that action was practically as sured. The Indians concerned are located In Northern California and full authority is expected in the next few months which may make pos sible one of the biggest benefits for the red man that has so far trans pired in this section of the country. 'Twenty years ago." stated Mr. Coe -this morning, "the Indians were grnnted their allotments con sisting of Itlii acres -each, which amount in all to about 2000 acres situated in the northern part of Cali fornia. As It happened, no great care was taken by the officials at that time to look Into the nature of the land and as a result many of the allotments consisted of land that was wholly or most untillable and little suited (or agricultural pur poses. Many of the Indians have consequently had to abandon their iittcnipts to make a living on the land, and several have had to live altogether on other property. "It Is the purop of the depart ment. If the plans that are devised ate car red out, to take back these-j unworkable lands nto the Govern- j ment Domain and give in exchange land that can be used to obtain a, living. There Is plenty of agrieul- j tural land in the domain at present I which can be usn In the exchange and provided we are given the au thority, the work will proceed im mediately.' l no mcai uuice uecaimi nnniwc In the Indians' side of the question soon after the arrival of Mr. Coe. j and the latter offh lal has made every effort to secure the Interest of the Government. Recently the matter was brought to the attention of Mr. Cuto Sells, the Indian Com missioner, through a California rongressmrm, and from present re ports the local office will probably soon he given the required author ity. Mr. Coe has been in communi cation with California officials for some time and has made a number of recommendations to that Htate. which has finally brought about the favorable notice A report concern ing the lands i being made at the local office at Up present time.
