LEASE " IS DISPUTED HI T ACTION IS BROUGHT TO ESTABLISH VALIDITY. Caldwell Claims Unwarranted Inter ference Which Cut Him Out of a Irofltablo Contract for the Use of Indian Land Question for Decision Is: Is a Lease Valid That la Made Without the Agent's Consent? Deputy U. S. Marshal Blowers was In the city Saturday for the purpose of serving papers in the case of Wil liam Caldwell vs. George Perringer, G. W. Rlgby, J. J. McKoin, et al. which is to be tried in the federal court at Portland next Thursday. The above case Is In regard to the leasing of section 30, township S north of range 84, E. W. M. The. above described land Is allotted land upon the reservation, and the plaint iff, Caldwell, claims to have leased it in September, 1903, from the In dian . allottees for the period of two years for the price of 12.50 per acre per year. The Caldwell lease is admitted to have been made without the sanction of the Indian agent, but Is held to be valid because of an order of the com missioner of Indian affairs directing that such leases be enforced by the Indian agents, althtough they were not made In accordance with the rules governing such leases. The complaint also states that the defendants, Perringer and Rlgby, per suaded the leasers to repudiate their contract with Caldwell, and to make a subsequent one ' with Perringer, also that to accomplish this one of the Indians was Induced to resign his guardianship over one of the minor allottees, and Defendant Rlgby was appointed as said guardian and as such was a party to the lease with Perringer. In the complaint it Is alleged that the plaintiff has been deprived of the use of the land, and thereby has suf fered a loss of 62000. Damages to this amount are asked by the plaintiff and also an injunction restraining the defendants from interfering with plaintiff's use of the land. R. J. Slater Is the attorney for the plaintiff, and the defendants are rep resented by Hailey & Lowell and James A. Fee. The above case la of considerable importance, because it will show the strength of a lease made without the agent's consent. ' Operation for a Tumor.
