INDIVIDUAL ENTERPRISE.
COMMUNICATED.

In all Nations except this, the
largest liberty or rather license to
Individual Enterprise is given and
from that fact everything that has
any vital interest to the public is =
success. While We are at a stand
still and begging our rights before
the Congress of the United States
instead Of demanding them, and
pointing to the World that we are
a success and capable of self gov
ernment in every particular, we
are representing ourselves as "poor
Indians" and often sending dele
gates to Washington dressed in the
garb Of our forefathers. Is it any
wonder that the press and people
Of the United States should consid-
er Indian civilization failure and
demand that such people should
stand back and not be allowed to
hinder the onward march of pro-
gress? We have heard enough of
this begging and stimulation. We
are able to cultivate every acre of
ara bic land in the Cherokee Ma
ton and to redeem and replant
every hillside and rocky point
also. BY planting it in white
clover, bluegrass, etc., also to pro-
duce hundreds of tons of cotton,
tobacco, etc., if demagogues and
sectionizers are not allowed to car
ry out their schemes. We learn
that bills are already drafted to
abridge the rights of the Cherokee
citizen to the cultivation of the
soil saying he shall but 60 SO far
north, east, west and south with
his plow as to include 100 acres.
Who ever heard an old Cherokee
citizen talking about how many
acres he had in his field? 1t was
always a big or little field and he
held IA of mile around that i'm
provcment. The oiiginators of
such bills must have an eye to al
lotment or office. We will admit
that the Council should take steps
to control syndicates that are or
ganizing to fence s and 20 miles
square for pasturage, but let the
Cherokee run his plow ten miles
square if it is his desire and COM
pei him TO turn every acre enclos-
ed and plant corn, cotton, tobacco
or the tame grasses. Give us the
liberty of freemen and the right to
spread in any direction that devel-
ops our soil and products, with
out monopohzing Natures gifts of
water, grass, shade, etc., and the
right TO use any material TO fence
we may choose to use.
