IT is known to our readers that the General Land Office, for the Interior Department of the United States, is now engaged in making an accurate survey of the metes and bounds of the Indian Territory.
 The unsurveyed lands of this sec tion of our country contains not less than fifteen million acres, or 32,0O0 square miles, the whole terri tory being as big as three or four New England states. Many people in the East suppose that Oklahoma embraces almost the whole of the Indian Territory, whereas it is only about 5000 square miles larger than the latter. All this outlying region
 which is opulent in resources to be developed, will, in few years, swarm with the civilizing influences of the times. No customs or tradi- tions can withstand the resistless tide. The blow, the mill, the store.
