The Nes Perce Indians are greatly exercised over reports that have been In circulation and have gained wide credence, that the Indian forests are to be opened for settlement and that in some cases filings have been ac cpted, says the Spokesman-Review.

It Is said that many of the Indians are to hold a tribal conference and that the long-haired, blanket reds are clamoring that the matter be taken up at once. The Indian department recently turned the administration of these forests over to the forestry depart ment and surveyors have been making plats for the department - and It Is probable that the rumor started from this. Filings have been offered on these lands by white people who have heard the report, but all have been rejected, and because of this some Lewlston at torneys have started a fight to open the lands. The result will, It Is believed, be a failure, for the forests are given to the Indians by treaty and only a supplemental treaty, ratified by con- TEA Wc sell tons of poor stuff; but our name isn't on it.
