They had long ago promised to come OF
their reservation themselves to some prope
place to be served with notices, as they ar
willing to allow the Poncas to try to recove
| their reservation; but they were prevented
| by watchful Government officials, who wert
acting, no doubt, under instructions from
! Secretary Schurz. These suits are based upoI
the fact that the treaty between the Govern
ment and the Poncas vested the title abso
lutely in the Poncas, and that the subsequen
! treaty giving these lands to the Sioux has NJ
| validity. This litigation will determine tn
| legal status Of the Indians-whethey the
can sue and be sued in State and Fedora
/ Courts, and the result will be awaited with
| great deal of interest The management o
! these suits, as well as ether Ponca litiga
ton, is in the hands of Hon. A. J. Poppleto1
! and Hon. J. l.. Webster, who do the ,veri
gratuitously. The expense of the litigation
will be paid out of the Ponca fund now il
the hands of committee of Omaha gentle
men.
