Show .' Senator Teller, who accompanied Mr. Hewett to the Department vmen presenting this application, desires that the subject be investigated by some Special Agent who will report the facts for tho consideration and action of the Department, or for the information of Congress in the event Die Department shall decide that legislative action is necessary before anything can be done looking to segregation of the portion of the land referred to from the reservation. I can hardly believe it to be tree that the reservati on selected by a corrmission, after going over the ground, contains no agricultural land". It may be that tho strip which is the subject of this paper is not agricultural land, but whether it will be wise to segregate it from the reservation and restore it to the public domain by Executive action, is a question for consideration. Respectfully submitted to the Secretary for .instructions -- y^yy^yy<y^ 1G84, ind. Div- '89- / K~ <-.Ya |
