Assistant Attorney General Shields of
the interior department decided that
Jane Waldron, who is the daughter of o
white father and a half blood Indian
mother was born a citizen OF the United
States and that her claim that she is an
lrdian by virtue Of being born of an In.
dian mother cannot be allowed. Neither
can IN longer be permitted to draw IA
tons n annuities as such from the
government, nor can she receive lands in
severalty. 1t is said at the Indian bureau
that this case practically decides from
1000 to 1900 cases IN all parts Of the
west. In many cases, however, the right
OF half bloods to be regarded under the
law AS Indian is fully acknowledged in u
number OF treaties.
