The following letter sent to J. W.

Washington. Sept. 4, 1903. lion. J. 11. Mitchell, United Slates Senate. Sir:—This office is in receipt of your communication dated August 18, 1903, in which you transmit a letter from Hon. J. W. Hamakar, of Klamath Falls, Oregon, in regard to the conclusion of allotments on the Klamath Indian Reservation, with a view to tlie disposal of the surplus lands. He states that In June last lie was led to believe that the final allot ments would be made by the Indian Agent, but it now develops that no I authority to make them has been j I given him, hence the matter is simply dragging, which is an injustice to the I community at large, and especially to some individuals. He speaks of several cases where this is working a i hardship, and states that it would seem there are men enough in (Ids I country in order to do this when | authorized, and that immediate steps I should be taken to have the proper allotting agent appointed to do this work. You ask to be advised of the situa tion and of the action taken. In reply you are informed that un der date of May 22, 1903, this office advised Agent Applegate, in charge of the Klamath Agency, that the I office had then recently received from ' the Commissioner of the General' Land Office a list of lands in the I Klamath Reservation selected as re verting to the State of Oregon under the swamp land grant: that this list SAFE CONSERVATIVE RELIABLE Your Policy Carries Itself Over Hard Times and Helps Carry You.
