INDEPENDENT PLArFoRM
Adopted at Carey's Ferry, Ind.
Ter, Monday, July 24th, 1899.

We the people Of Delaware district
In mass convention assembled, do or
dain and adopt the following platform
OF principles, ard invite all men with
out regard to race, color or previous
party afiiliation, to unite with us in
carrying out the policy herein indi-
Gated.
let, we believe this Cherokee gov
eminent should be of, for and by It's
citizens in opposition to rings and
syndicates.
End, that sovereignty is Inherent ia
the people, and that our public officers
should be public servants and not
public masters.
Bird, We believe II to be the duty Of
our representatives to obey the will Of
the people expressed in convention or
by petition, and that honesty and
competency should be the only tests
In filing positions OF public trust.
4th, We favor an honest, economical
administration of our affairs and
rigid enforcement Of our laws.
9th, We. condemn the reckless ex-
penditure Of our public moneys and
their misappropriation TO private uses
that has fastened upon us public
debt OF more than two hundred thou.
sand dollars bearing six per cent. in.
terest.
9th, We oppose the appropriation Of
one dollar Of the proceeds Of the sale
Of our strip lands for the payment Of
said debt, but demand that it shall be
/ paid by those who are monopolizlng
our farming, grazing and mining priv
ileges.
7th, We favor the equal rights Of all
classes Of our citizens.
s,h. We favor the speedy enactment
Of such laws as will break uI and for
ever destroy monopoly OF the lands
Of the Cherokee nation, by limiting
each citizen TO bis or her pro rata
share Of the public domain.
9th, We favor system Of taxation
that will take the burden OF govern
ment of the shoulders Of the poor and
place 1t upon all in proportion to their
ability to pay.
10th, We demand that every dollar
of the proceeds Of our bonds be paid
out to the people per capita; and
should our authorities fail TO cash said
bonds at an early day on account of
the stringency of money matters or
from any other cause, we ask for a di-
vision Of the bonds and that they be
issued to the citizens per capita and
thereby prevent the bankruptcy Of our
merchants and the stagnatlon OF our
business generally.
