The plea that the Cherokees
would be unable, to protect their
landed interests in case of allotment
is about the weakest argument that
has appeared. The Cherokees
have very recently passed through
an ordeal that would have tried
the prudence Of any people on the
face OF the earth, and.tbeir cautious
foresight carried them through un-
scathed. At the different places of
payment every allurement has
been held out, every indrcement
has been used, to weedle them out
of their money. The smooth gam
bier, the silver-tongued fakir, the
shrewd confidence man, the fair.

all their arts to lead our people
from the path Of rectitude TO dis.
aster, and they have failed. The

THE stock Of enthusiasm on
hand in the Cherokee nation to be
expended in the coming compaign
is unusually small this year. One
can hardly surmise what the issue
will be this tune. The Strip is sold
and the old chestnut" will be at
last laid aside that has done service
in so many campaigns. The com.
mon people are opposed to monop-
oily, but woe unto the candidate for
chief that raises his little finger
against it.

PRoposIrIox TO THE cHERoKEEs.

The commission TO the Five Civ
ilized Tribes appointed by the
president, under section 16 of an
act of congress, approved March
3, 1898, propose to treat with the
Cherokee nation on the general
lines indicated below, to be modi-
fed and extended as may be
deemed wise by both parties after
discussion and conference:
First Divide all lands now
owned by the Cherokee nation, not
including town sites, among all cit
izens according to treaties now in
force, reserving town sites and
minerals for sale under special
agreement. Sufficient land for
good home for each citizen to 5e
made inalienable for twenty. five
years, or such longer period as
may be agreed upon.
Second. The United States
agrees TO put each allottee in pos
session of the land allotted him
without expense to the allottee.
That is, TO remove from the allot-
tees land all persons who have
not written authority from the al
lottee to be on the same, executed
after the date Of the evidence Of
title.
Third. Town sites and coal and
minerals. discovered before allot-
ment, TO be the subject Of special
agreement between the parties,
such as will secure to the nation
and to those who have invested in
them, just protection and adjust
ment Of their respective rights and
interests therein.
Fourth. A final settlement of
all claims against the United
States.
Fifth. All invested funds, not
devoted to school purposes, and
all monies derived from the sale
of town sites, coal and minerals as
well as monies, found due from the
United States, to be divided per
capita among citizens according to
their respective rights under the
treaties and agreements.
Sixth. All monies due the citi-
zons Of said nation, except that de-
voted to school purposes, to be
paid per capita TO citizens entitled
thereto by an officer Of the United
States, to be appointed by the
president Of the United States.
Seventh. A board OF three per-
sons, 10 be agreed upon, to whom
shall be referred all questions Of
citizenship and right to allotment.
excepting freedmen, to consist Of
one member of this commission
and one by Cherokee blood, and in
case they fail to agree upon such
third member he shall be APP
pointed by the President
Eighth. A board Of three per-
sons, to be agreed upon, TO consist
Of two members OF this commission
and one Cherokee by blood, who
shall revise the roll Of the freedmen
known as the Wallace roll, and
erase the names Of such as may be
improperly placed on said roll, and
such as may appear TO be entitled
thereto, Including such as may have
been born since that roll was made
to be added
Ninsh II an agreement shall be
reached with :.iho Cherokee nation,
a territorial government may be
formed by congress and established
over the Cherokee nation and such
other Of the five civilized tribes as
may have at that time agreed TO al
lotment Of lands and change of
government.
Tenth Sdch agreement when
made shall be submitted for ratif-
cation 10 the Cherokee government
and If ratified by Il shall then be

II the United States should put
all the intruders out that were here
before August IL, 1885, according
TO the act Of March Ord, 1892, the
country would hardly miss them.
There are probably three. fourths
more intruders here that have
come into the country since that
date than were here before, and
there are a vast number that have
come in within the last year. This
intruder matter is getting alto.
gether unwieldy.
Indian chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1882-1902, 1894-08-09

If the additional appropriation
is made to carry out the intruder
clause in the Strip agreement, the
authorities of this nation should
see to it that nothing is left un-
done on our part to effect a fair
settlement with these people, and
insist on the removal of those who
are really intruders, and restore
to full citizenship those who are
not. This matter is of great mo-
ment to the Cherokees and should
be dealt with intelligently and
actively.

ONE can hardly realize the rapid
ity with which this country is be-
ing changed from a grazing to a
farming community. There is
probably more wheat grown within
a radius of ten miles of Vinita now
than was grown in all Cooweescoo-
wee and Delaware districts five
years ago. The people of this coun-
try now use -four made of home
grown and home ground wheat,
whereas five years ago one firm in
Vinita alone sold a car load of -four
a week shipped in from the states.
Fhe transition is altogether profit
able, and the possibilities Of this
northern portion Of the Cherokee
nation as wheat growing section
can hardly be imagined.

GROCERIES.


In good times people buy
what they wish; in bad
times they buy what they
must. When money.comes
most easily it goes most
readily; but when a silver
dollar looks as large as a
Kansas Jimmi-cane and is
fearfully lonesome its own
er clings to it until he finds
a bargain. He has a big
dollar and wants a big dol
lars worth, and he is right.
We have endeavored at all
times to sell Groceries and
Provisions at prices that
satisfied the most eXacting.
And now with a fair pros
pect of good crops, together
with the Strip money float
ing around, we are still in
the front. We want your
trade, and if low prices and
fair dealing be any induce
ment we are bound to have
it. You will find everything
that may be had at a first
class Grocery Establish
ment. Call and see what
the purchasing power of a
dollar will do for you.

Sheriff Cline yesterday offered . re-

shot Rev. Andrew Carson at Whittier
last Saturday morning. The sheriff has
made every effort to capture the would
be assassin.
The dispatch from Whittier yesterday
in which it was stated that had Mr..
Cline taken due diligence the man would
have been caught, was not in keeping
with the facts. The tragedy was not
reported to Sheriff Cline until seven
hours after its occurrence, when he i'm
mediately wired all towns in Southern
California and sent two deputies from
this Office in pursuit OF the burglar.
The sheriff returned from Verdugo
csilon and the San Fernando valley last
night, where he went to investigate q
clue which at first looked encouraging.
The man was not the ons who shot the
