It Is reported thnt tho Indians of Ing. It Is not believed that anything
tho Klamath Reservation nro very excet1 8n nct of Congress repealing
much opposed to tho Modocs being
brought hero from Oklahoma.' Tho
recent act of Congress provided for
the return of tho survivors of Cap
talu Jack's band of Modocs to the
Klamath Reservation. Thcso Indians
havo already been given allotments
In Oklahoma and tho; arc to bo al
lowed to aell or Icnso thcso for a
term of five )ca:3, n:.d will In uddl
Hon bo given c ther t'lom ints on
the Klnmnth Re ci n U.n. Vhcy arc
also to bo all w il to slant In thu
tribal funds of tho Klnmatks.
This latter provision is what has
caused tho greatest objection to the
return of tho Modocs. Tho Indians
aro not any too nnxlous to having
the Modocs brought back to live
with them, but they certainly object
to sharing with thorn their funds.
They claim that It looks like the
government was trying to reward
tho Modocs for fighting against the
whites during tho war. The Kla
math wcro peaceful and assisted the
soldiers, but Captain Jack's band ot
Modoc Indians fought tho soldiers
and massacred tho settlors and some
of the officers. For ilolng this they
aro now about to receive their sec
ond allotment of lands and arc to be
allowed an equal proportion with the
Klamnths In tho distribution ot tho
money received from tho said ot land
belonging to tho latter.
Superintendent Wilson of the
Klamath Reservation recently re
ceived a letter from tho agent In Ok
lahoma enclosing a copy of tho Act
of Congress, and stating that the
Indians wcro turned over to him. It
Is not known bow many thero are
left of tho trlbo or when they will
be sent to Klamath. There aro sup
posed to bo about 10 of tho original
band left, but the number of tho
children Is not known definitely.
As soon as tho Indians hero learn
ed that preparations wore being
made to remove th'e Modocs to their
reservation they entered a protest.
A telegram was sent to the Secretary
and In reply the department asked
to have their objection put In writ-
their former act will prevent tho Mo
docs being brought to' tho Klamath
Reservation.
DAIRY MEETING SATURDAY

Arnngcmcnts aro being made for
tho big mooting to be held at 2:30

The meeting Saturday will be held
In tho audience room at tho Court
House. Invitations have been sent
out all over the county. A number ot
prominent speakers will address tho
meeting. The farmers are display
ing an unusual Interest In the new
organization, and It Is believed that
tho farmers will be able to benefit
themselves greatly by ttirlr assnrla
tlon In this cause. '
A series of meetings tn different
sections ot tho county will be ar
ranged for later, and a number ot
Instructors at tho Agricultural Col
lego at Corvallls have agreed to bo
