DusatUncd with prevailing condi
tions on the Klamath Indian reserva
tion, and desiriug to become citizen
of the United State, a general meet
ing of all Indians ha been called for
July T.th at the old celebration
grounds, near Fort Klamath, to con
sider plans for bringing this matter
about.
Clajton Kirk. William Crawforu.
Abraham Charle and Garfield Jack
are among the leaders of the move
ment, and are among the Influential
men of the tribe.
The Indians feel that they are now
capable of undertaking the responsi
bilities of citlsenshlp, and can look
after their own Interest better than
they arc now taken care of by the In
diau department.
Clayton Kirk has recently returned
from a trip to Washington, D. C.
where he went as a delegate In tribal
Interest. He Is not satisfied with
the way the Indian problem are han
dled In the department, and desires
the Klamath to take steps to prove
their ability to handle their own af
fair. The committee also desires the
reservation land to be thrown open.
.
Mr. and Mr. Jaf Pelton are
here for a brief visit from Fort Klam
