LEASE THEIR LANDS,

An Indian Territory Merchant Talks In
teresting:y of the Sac and Fox.
j. b. Charles, a merchant of Sac and
Fox agency, says the Indians owning
land iii the vicinity of the town have
leased a considerable portion Of it to
white settlers. There are SOME 500 IT,
dams in the reservation, and every one
has 100 acres of land. The title at pres
emf consists of a certificate from the gov
crnment that patent will be 1ssdeu
Is wears after the land was allotted.
The certificates pass for deeds in the
territory: rgfhe lenses are drawn up by
Special Agent Oglesby, in the employ
of the government" said Mr.. Charles.
"a 16O-acre tract brings from $50 10
500 a year, and the leases are for me
years. AS every Indian in the reserva'
ton at the time of the allotment - en-,
titled to 16O acres, the land represented
by an Indian father, mother and three
children will amount to 500 acres ana

allowance from the government, vary
