Frank Byrd, nne of the wealthiest and
most influential Indian from the Chicln-
saw Nation. was here this week on pri-
vate business, and was seen by The Post
correspondent, to whom ne conyersed freely
on Territory topics. Byrd is brother OF
William Byrd, late governor OF the Chicka
saw Nation, VINO was succeeded by Gov
ernor Harris.
Byrd is possibly the wealthiest Indian in
the Nation; he lives at Franks, small
place, and conducts a general merchandise
store, Touring mill, cotton GIN grist mill
power. His possessions In the way OF cat
tie and ranches are large. and his bust
ness has always proven successful. He Is
nso National agent for the Chickasaws in
the Choctaw Nation, position that pays
him handsomely. Mr.. Byrd is an unusually
shrewd business man. and above the ordi-
nary native Of the Territory in intelli-
gence.
Speaking OF the feeling among his people
on the Dawes treaty recently passed by
the Territorial legislature. Mr.. Byrd said
that the reports are that the Indians OPP

that the measure will carry, but thinks II

people are about equally divided on the
matter. Mr.. Byrd says that tribal rela-
tionship will not be abrogated until June
next. He remained over for day or SO
