1t is provided in the Oklahoma bill
that no part of Oklahoma proper, or OF
the Cherokee lands shall be open for
settlement until the commissioners
provided for in the bill shall have OBJ
tanned the consent of the Indians.
When their consent is given, the fact
shall be made known to the president,
who will in public proclamation so
announce, and declare the lands open
for settlement.
But any one going upon the lands
contrary to the orders of the executive,
or before such proclamation, shall not
be permitted to make entry on them,
nor acquire any claim in them. 1t
therefore behOoves gentlemen and 9TH
ers with booming proclivities to have a
care, lest they cut off their noses to
spite their faces. The only way in
which you can make an entry or ac-
quire title to land in the territory Is
by complying with the law. By at
tempting any short cuts, or crossing
lots, you will get nothing.
The law is as memorable as that OF
the Medes and Persians. Stay at home
and go TO work, and bide your time.

it does, Sill must you wait. Don't be
