"Our delegation favors a removal
of til restrictions, exccitt upon
the full blood Indian's homestead,
cin,l the taxation of all Indian lands.
I believe we will bo able to get tho
removal of restrictions some placo
along tho scale between the
secretary's ilan and the demands of
our delegation.
"I have sincere hopes that wo will
succeed In getting legislation Just in
accordance with my platform: that Is,
tlie removal of all restrictions except
on tho full blood Indian homestead.
"Of course, wo might be nble to
drive n measure like thN through
even with tho Influenco of tho Inte
rior department against us, but I
havo serious doubts, and feel that
wo havo .1 much hotter show to
get good wholesome legislation with
tho assistance of Mr. Garfield than
by making a fight against him. If,
however, wo should bo unablo to
get the secretary to assist us In
some measure which wo think equit
able to all parties, we will then put
up tho strongest fight we can with
out that Influence.
"Mr. Oarflold appears to be n plain
sensible business man, and I feel
sure he will not oppose a measure of
this kind which Is fraught with so
much good to tho people of Okla
homa.
"Wo will make a strong fight to
secure this legislation when no re

the Incident has revived tho bitter
est of feeling,
Last night tho Vancouver Trades

that If there wns no legal ma
chlnery by which tho pollco could go
through all tho houses of Japanese In
thu town to search for knives and
revolvers and thoroughly disarm thu
Japanese, then tho laboring men
should arm themselves with rovol

Tho situation is admittedly very
serious,
Somo people get very angry with
