Suspects the Provision of Congress to
Sell the Grand Ronde Indian Res
ervation to One Man.
Washington, May 21. Secretary
Hitchcock has expressed his disap
proval of the provision of the bill
passed by congress for the sale of the
Indian lands on the Grand Ronde res
ervation, In Ynmhin county.
The bill provides that the land may
be sold in separate tracts or ln one
body to suit the purchaser, and as the
reservation consists of 27,000 acres,
the secretary sees a scheme of some
friends of Congressman Hermann to
take over the entire body, against
the spirit of tho government, which
Intends tho remaining vacant lands
for the use of the actual settler.
If the land Is hid In by one person,
or if the bids show collusion on the
part of land sharps to pain control
of tho entire body, the secretary will
reject all their bids, as prescribed by
law.
