Accordingly the appointments Of
Commissioners of Towns" last
made and confirmed by the Senate,
was made by authority of both acts

and their duties are defined bv both
acts-the provisions ofthe latter
taking precedence in cases Of con-
fiict.
This appointment therefore con-

Section 2nd refers 10 each side of
the railroad lines running through

ervation" as set apart in confOrmi-

two descriptive phrases must ex-
plain each other. The town strips

ly so much of the space described
in the surveys and referred to in the
act, as r. Z. Reservation, as they
may from time to time actually re-
quire for the successful operation
of their roads, and the remainder
will, until such time comes, be and
remain under the control and
subject TO the use of the Cherokee
Nation, which in this case devotes
it to the free and unobstructej pas

the pit Of error, but, if SC, only re-
grcts thai ~Voter," instead of ex-
tricating him from il. has sunk him
deeper.
The simple point is this: That

owns a single head of kline, and
either marks or brands il, viii
d ace that animal unless he regis
.ers, under the provisions of the
Law, which, while it seems to ap-
ply only to those having fifty OF
more head, in fact applies TO al
owners.
The optics keen of "Votsr, 7"
which have never "seea q cali
branded unless some sort Of a
brand has been used, !" viii readily
see thak his reference to unregis-
tered brands applies to unregistered
marks, and that the law is compul-
sorry upon every one The talk
about The ability Of a person to own
