THOSE INDIAN ALLorMENrs.

The point raised by Rev. j. c. Post
in his interview in yesterdays EAGLE,
in regard to the Indian allosmerts in
the strip country is corroborated by
Col. 3. III. Campbell of this city, than
whom there is no better posted man
on anything pertaining to those lands
in the country. Colonel Campbell was
a member Of the Cherokee Live Stock
association, which for years held a lease
on the Cherokee lan6s recently opened
for settlement. Col. Campbell says that
he has slept on every acre of ground in
the strip and knows every foot of it.
In talking to reporter yesterday about
the opening Of the strip Colonel Camp
bell said:
.'The whole thing was farce from
beginning to end and the manner in
which the opening was managed was
unworthy of a great country like this of
ours. In the first place there was fraud
in the allotment Of land to the Cherokee
Indians. They were given seventy
farms Of eighty acres each on the sup
position that there were that many i'm
proved farms there. I know. and will
stake my reputation on the statement,
that there was not one improved farm in
the strip, and Everyone OF these reserva-
tions Is under town-sites.
In regard to the opening of the lands
the method employed and the result
ing Determinations and outrages-Col.
Campbell says:
''The certificates of registration were
a most useless and burdenous thing, and
only helped the soonsr to cover his
tracks. The whole country was played
into the hands of sooners. spectators
and rings. There were 400 soldiers on
guard on the strip border, and even if
these had been honest men, the force
was not sufficient 10 keep cut sooner5.

too. We were headed for the bottom
lands twenty miles away. When we
reached the top of the divide. where~we
could first see the bottom lands, we saw
the soonerS emerge from the brush Ill
droves, and when we got there the land
was all taken. Every quarter section of
desirable land in the strip was taken by
sooners who had been III hiding in the
brush for days, and not one single man
who made a run for land got it. One
from a Kansas town, which
had been hiding in the timber for days,
came out at 10 o'clock and staked out
whole watercourse, and when the home
seekers, who had been waiting for four
years for this opening got there they
found the land all taken aud the owners
guarding it with sho!guns. 1t was a
miserable farce from beginning TO end"
