INDIAN TERRITORY.
Bills Before the House Affecting the
Lands In the Territory.
SPECIAL 10 the Register.

Lands In the Territory.
SPECIAL 10 the Register.
WASHINGTON, March l5.-Duripg the
past week much mas been said in the
House about the Indian Territory, and it is
very probable that much more will De said
upon the subject before the session ends.
There are a number Of bills pending
which affect the Indian Territory. They
propose to extend Safe laws over that
country; to organize it sll into Terri
tory; to make q Territory of the uaoccu-
pied portion and opsn it up to settlement,
etc
The most plausible proposition seems to
have been suggested By Mr. Cannon, OF
Illinois, who is well verSed in Indian affairs.
Speaking of the Oklahoma boom today ne
said
There are fl, 900 600 acres Of land in
the Indian Territory Altogether there
are 70 900 Indians upon the land; but all
Of 1t is not occupied BY them. Over I,OO0,-
900 acres have been leased 10 cattle men,
and they hold it, while the army is used 10
drive out settlers, whose highest ambition
is for so or 100 acres of land for home.
But the settler can not get upon the land
on account of teehuicslity.
What is the technicshty2
That it was obtained for q specific par
pose-for the Indians" replied Mr.. Can
non. These leases TO cattle kings are
but qualified sales. If you can lease for
Eve years, why not for one hundred years.
What do you think Congress ought to
do in the premises? / asked.
Justice to the Indians and to the peo
pie who want to settle upon these lands,
replied Nr. Cannon; and that can be
done by giving to each of these Indians,
man, woman and child, so acres cf land
in severslty. would put them on the
land allotted to them, and there protect
them. Then there would be left IN the
Territory about $4,000 scres of land.
| would make it lawful for settlers to go In
and buy this land in trso:s OF so and lGO
acres at 81 or l.25 su sere Tor settlement,
and nothing but settlement would let
the honest, lsw,sbidipg white man who hee
never and who does not mean to harm the
Indian intentionally, take bis farm imp!e-
meuts, his Bible, his civilization and his
industry and settle Cmopg the Indians"
Don't you think the Indians would
6nauv become destitute if deprived Ct the
Goyerumen.. "a supper, and thattheV would
lose their lands9'
mo, l do not, if proper precautions are
taken" said Mr. Cannon. " would give
the Indians the proceeds from the sale OF
the surplus lands, and the lands they re
tanned would be made inaliesbIe Tor al
least a generation, or two generations.
The funds created By the sale OF the
35, 100000 acres of land could be held IN
trust By the Government and would Keep
the Indians from becoming paupers,

deeply grieved to lose the old gentleman,
whose life has, while among them, been
one of probity, honesty, gentleness and
