Facts Arrived at by Recent Surveys and
Last Census of Indians.
BY comparing recent surveys OF the
Oneida Indian reservation, near Green Bay,
and the last census of Indians on that res
eryation, it is ascertainod that the amount
of land in reserve will admit of allotting TO
each head of a family but S. acres, and to
each single man over b years, 45 acres; and
to each orphan child under Is years, a.
acres This is considerably less than the
allowance under the Dawes act, but with
this pro rata division there viii be ! 70 dcres
left which viii be absorbed by the excess of
births over deaths since the last census
These facts have been arrived at by the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs, in arrang-
ing for allotting the lands of the Oncidas,
which win soon be undertaken by Special
Agent Dana c. Lamb
