THE MAIN QUESTION.

There is no question so interest
ing to the Cherokee people at this
time as the allotment of land. The
proposition uppermost in the
minds Of all interested is that each
may get his or her share Of the
common estate Of the tribe. What
ever is being done or has been
done in the way Of the abolition Of
the Indian governments, and all
work along the lines laid down by
the Dawes commission, is prelimi-
nary TO the great end to be OBJ
tanned, namely, the division of the
land among those entitled TO share
it. The work of surveying the
country is now progressing again
and will be finished in due time,
and the Dawes commission has
taken steps toward making cor.
rect roll of the citizens Of the FIVE
tribes who are entitled to share in
the allotment. So the matter is
progressing perhaps as rapidly as
is desirable under the existing cir
cumstsnces. There is little doubt
now that allotment will come
through congressional action IG.d
against the wishes and over the
protests of a real majority Of the
citizens Of the Indian country.
Real allotment and not so much
red tape and talk is the thing the
Indians are beginning to long for,
and the sooner the government
takes hold and accomplishes it the
better it will be for all concerned.
The mistake the Dawes commits
sion has made has been in acced-
ing to the tactics Of delay Of the In
dian politicians. Had the Dawes
commission been clothed with the
authority ii would have been inf
nitely better to have proceeded at
once TO the task ultimately TO be
performed, the allotment Of the
land

to make the necessary arrange
ments for placing within the reach
of the commission all the informa.
ton obtainable that will in any
manner be helpful to them in max.
ing such rolls. To this end, | re.
spectfuliy recommend that you
give authority and make the neces.
sary appropriation for the employ
ment of such legal assistance as
this department may need in prop
erly presenting the rights and in
ierests of the Cherokee nation TO
the said commission.
Already persons have made APP
plications to the commission for
enrolment at Fort Gibson, Indian
Territory, aad copies served on me
as chief of the nation. BY a rul-
ing of the commission, within
thirty days Of such service the ma
tion must file its answer and evil
dence in support of same; thus, it
will be seen that the employment
of legal service is necessary and
should be provided for at once,
with proper instructions in the
premises by your honorable body.
This department is in receipt of
communication, dated June 2Sth,
1897, from the Hon. Frank Z.
Armstrong, acting chairman of the
commission to five civilized tribes,
requesting that the commission be
furnished with the last authenti-
Gated roll of citizens of this nation
made prior to June 10, 1896, and
all other rolls made since that
date; likewise copies of all acts of
the national council passed, and OF
all judl lments OF duly authorized
courts rendered since the date OF
such authenticated roll, admitting
! persons to Cherokee citizenship,
that they may be used in assisting
the said commission in making the
rolls under the acts of congress
approved June 10, 1896, and June
Z, 1897.
To comply with this request, il
will necessitate a great deal of cler-
ical work to prepare the documents
wanted; therefore, ] recommend
that a sufficient sum be appropria-
ted for the purpose Of employing
cjpyists to complete the work as
early as practicable.
In the making of this roll as lit
tie expense and trouble as possible
should be given our citizens whose
citizenship is confirmed by the acts
of congress before referred TO, and
the furnishing Of the documents
requested by the commission will
very materially aid in this direc-
tion. Also, care should be exer-
cised to drop the names Of all de-
ceased persons from the rolls.
Herewith l hand you, for your
information on the subject sub.
mitted to you for legislation, the
acts of congress dated June 10,
1896, and June 7, 1897, a letter
from the United States commits
sion to this department, and a cir
cular letter from said commission

Your obedient servant,

appearing on the rolls of 1880 will
be accepted by the Dawes commits
sion and transcribed TO the new
rolls to be made by it, together
with the descendants of same. In
addition to this will be added the
names of all who have been ad-
mitted by act of council, by the
duly authorized courts of the Cher
okee nation, by the Dawes COM
mission, and by intermarriage with
Cherokee citizens. All these last
enumerated classes appear on the
last roll made, save children born
since the making OF that roll, but
they may be stricken from those
rolls by the Cherokees themselves
or by the Dawes commission. The
question as to whether white inter-
married citizens whose names do
not appear upon the rolls of 1880
should apply to the Dawes COM
mission or not, is a matter TO be
settled by each individual for him
self or herself as the case may he.
But if any are left off, it will be
their own individual loss. The
way is open and the case stated
clearly in the act of congress, and
let no man deceive you, or laugh
you, or drive you away from pro-
tecting your own individual in
terests.

Don't Forget the Dale, Adg. 14th.

Lahay, Of the Downing ticket,
seems to be in the lead, ana the
race appears TO be between the two
National candidates, Judge Coch.
ran and Judge John Scrimsher,
with the chances slightly in favor
Of Scrimsher. Daniel Windy"
Vann will get the smallest vote
probably ever received by a candi-
date for the senate in the, district.
The word has been pretty gener-
ally passed around that Windy"
is mo good" and he don't seem
to have any friends working for
him. As to the candidates for the
lower house in this district, no in
terest OF account is manifested.
Ward for sheriff will probably get
hree-fourths of the entire vote Of
the district.
over In Delaware the interest
centers around two or three candi-
dates for the senate. Frank La
mar seems to be in the lead, with
his colleague, j. r. Hastings, close
behind him. l.. B. Bell heads the
National ticket, but is trying to
rally the disafIected element in the
Downings to his support. The
better element of all parties seem
to be dead set against him.
This election,i all human prob
ability, will be the last regular
election of the Cherokee nation as
now constituted, and as to whether
this is an important one, opinions
differ.

REGARDING ENROLMENT.

There seems to be a great diver
sity Of opinion as to the real inn
port Of the circular recently issued
by the Dawes commission relative
to who should apply for enroll
ment. The circular is to some ex.
tent misleading, as it recognizes
no roll save the last authenticated
roll, or in other words the roll of
1880. II should certainly explajn
that the names Of descendar Of
persons appearing on that roll
whose names have appeared upon
subsequent rolls need not apply.
The whole thing in a nutshell
seems to be that the census roll Of
1880 must be taken in toto. and all
other rolls are open for investiga-
iion. Or IN other words the names
Indian chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1882-1902, 1897-07-29

As to whether white intermar-
ried citizens should make applica-
ton TO the Dawes commission for
enrolment is a matter for each one
to settle for himself, but it would
seem to be the part of wisdom for
each one TO see for himself that his
name Is placed on the roll. If the
10Th Of August comes around and
any are lett on account of not hav-
ing applied to the Dawes commits
sion as instructed in the circular
sent out, the loss will simply fall
upon the individual; nothing more.

In all the love affairs in the
world, none can surpass the love
of big boy for his mother. 1t is
pure and noble and honorable in
the highest degree TO both. We
do not mean a mere dutiiul affec.
ton. We mean a love that makes
a boy gallant and courteous to his
mother, saying to everybody plain
ly that he is in love with her.
Next to the love of a husband
nothing crowns a woman's life
with such honor aud happiness as
this. We never yet knew n boy to
turn out hopelessly bad who
began by being in love with bis
mother. Any man may fail in
love with fresh-faced girl, and
the man who is gallant to a girl
may cruelty neglect his worn and
weary wife. But the boy who is a
lover of his mother in her middle
age is a true knight who will love
his wife in her sear-leaved autumn
as much is he did in her daised
spTingtime.

THE latest from Tah!equah in
dicates the enactment of measure
providing for the copying of the
census rolls made since 1880 to-
gether with ell acts Of council and
judgment sof courts pertaining TO
citizenship since that date, for the
use of the Dawes commission in
making up its final roll. The act
carries an amendment abolish
ing the Cherokee commission ap.
pointed last year for the purpose
of negotiating with the Dawes
commission. The bill also pro-
vides for the appointment by the
chief with the consent Of the SEN
ate Of attorneys to represent the
Cherokee nation before the Dawes
commission and to assist in max
ing up a final roll Of citizens. 1t
is believed that council will ad-
journ Saturday, If not earlier.
