Show Uinta Council, 66. discussing is already past, and all your talk on that line amounts to nothing. You are on record as being op.osed to it. The reservation, ray friends, will be opened up notwithstanding your protests. I will repeat what I have said before, that it is unnecessary to discuss on that line any further. The question that you should give your attantion to is whether you want to accept allotments or not,- not the opening of the reservation because that is already provided for. Quinn: These people, what do they say to you? Where did you find the key to this reservation to open it? That's the reason I don't understand even if you do say it is provided for. I don't believe it. You say you are here, and that you have this paper as your authority. If they find the key to this reservation, to open it we will give it to you. YOU coma and throw it on the table and say,"Hera, I have the key to this reservation. Throw it down here so I cam see it. When you throw your key to the reservation out here, I will believe you. These people who are taking this land, have they money to bjqr this land? Will -they give us all the money the land calls for? I will not give it to you even if you say that. Inspector McLaughlin: It is not to me the land i3 going: I am not taking it. Wanrodes: My friend, I like these mountains and I like this water; I like the timber; I like the coal in the coal mine. The mountains have range for my horses. I do not think Washington will take away what he told me I had got. Here am I and Henry Harris and seme others around here. We want to keep this. They all say we want to keep all these things. We want a place for our horses to graae. |
