Senator La Follette Faults Indian Roll Handling in Senate Speech
In Washington on June 12 Senator La Follette charged an assistant to the commissioner of the Five Civilized Tribes aided a legal firm in preparing the Indian roll and then reviewed it in his official capacity. He quoted a brother‑in‑law of his who helped report a court system for Indian Territory as having been appointed to the court. The remarks came as he opposed the conference report on the Indian appropriation bill, which was nonetheless adopted. The day also saw passage of the diplomatic appropriation bill and the oath of office for William Pinckney Whyte as Gorman’s successor. Discussions touched on the Choctaw enrollment, Butler and other attorneys’ claims regarding the Colville reservation, and A J Brown’s directorship of Seminole children. A Tillman probe into Chicago National Bank affairs was briefly raised, with Aldrich promising action.
