MIR. BLAINE'S VISITORS.
Crowds of People Who Call at the State
Department.

The popular idea of Mr.. Blaine's influence
and power is well evidenced by the crowds of
people that daily haunt the corridors outside
of his Office in the State department. Ever
since his first official day. now nearly two weeks
ago. this crowd has been one of the features of
the place; men of all ages. Sizes nationalities,
colors; men who would like to be ministers to
foreign lands or consuls in pleasant cities: men
who would be content with consular agencies,
anything in the form of crumbs from the diplo-
matte table. There are some who come claim
old Offices wrested from them by the last ad-
ministration. and they enter the precincts of
the department with air of familiarity and
freedom that betrays some little sign of sur
prise. as the absence of the old iron gates and
barriers is noted. But these men are few in
number.
A majority of those who call on Mr. Blaine
do not want places under him. but seek his in
huence aid to their success in other lines
They believe that word from the Maine
statesman will carry with it much weight
Mr.. Walker Blaine Is doing good service in
helping his father to receive his visitors There

THE OKLAHOMA LANDS.
Nearly Two Million Acres Soon to be
Opened for Settlement.

The President has approved the deed by
which the Seminole Indians cede to the United
States all their right, title and interest to the
land held by them III the Oklahoma tract The
recent cession OF lands made by the Creek or
Muscogee Indians and the Seminole
Indians embraces an area of about
five and half millions of land
lying west of the Creek country occu-
pied by the Creek nation i'll Indian Territory.
and between the Canadian river on the south.
the Cherokee outlet on the north and Texas Oh
the west. Prior to the recent cession the
United States, under provisions contained in
treaties with the Creeks and Semnoles in 1866
located certain tribes of Indians part of said
land, reserving therefore about three million,
seven hundred thousand acres of the five-and-a
half million acres recently ceded. The occu-
pancy rights of those Indians prevent the pres
ent issue at least of any proclamation opening
to homestead entry of the lands upon which
said Indians are located. There are, however,
over million, eight hundred thousand acres
of said cessions upon which no Indians have
been located, and which are unassigned and
unoccupied. This tract is known as the Okla
homa tract proper.
In short time the President will issue a
proclamation declaring this land open to set
tlement and after thirty days from the date of
said proclamation settlers may come in and
take possession. Two land offices will be estab-
lished The establishment of a United States
court at Muscogee, with jurisdiction over this
country, has been authorized by Congress. The
court officers. as well as the land officers will
soon be appointed

An important question comes before the law
courts to-day raising the right of women TO sit
upon the newly established county councils.
Two women. Lady Sandhurst and Miss Golden.
daughter of the famous politician, were elected
IN London and have sat and voted. Lady Sand
hurst has been made an alderman. The cam
didate next below Lady Sandhurst on the poll
now petitions the court for her seat. Women's
right to a vote in the county councils is eX-
pressly conceded by the use of the general
word person" but the courts will probably
say the right 10 vote does not carry the right
TO SIT which latter does not exist unless specially
conceded.
