SMALL COMFORT FROM THE PREMIER. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. Received 5, 5.3 p.m. Ottawa, March 4. Ninety-six Indian chiefs, delegates representing all the British Columbia tribes, formed a deputation to the Premier, Mr. Mcßride, asking for the establishment of the tribes' proprietorial rights to all unsurrendered lands throughout the province.
The Premier refused to consider that the Indians possessed any rights to the land, and attacked the white men who were stirring up the tribesmen to raise the question.
