An Ancient Ostrich.

A specimen of the extinct bird with
teeth. called the hesperornis, was recent
ly discovered in Kansas, so perfect in
preservation that its feathers were still
in place. These feathers, Prof. Marsh,
of Yale, says, are 'the typical plumage
of an ostrich" Remains of the hesper-
ornis were first discovered by Prof.
Marsh about 81 years ago, and he was
led to assert that the bird was proba-
bly, a ''carnivorous, swimming ostrich
The recent discovery confirms his origi-
nal opinion, while showing what won

living, and an equal interest in
the remaining land of the Chero-
kee nation-that is, the original
ones. The claim is simply mon
strous and unreasonable. The
majority of the Delawares them
selves oppose it. The thing The
CHIEFTAIN objects to is the inde-
cent haste with which the Dawes
commission accepted the Della
ware claim and advised the secre-
tary of the interior to set aside
157 900 acres of land to the Della
wares in addition to their rights as
citizens.
As to the railroad claim, it
means a great deal to the citizens
of the Cherokee nation. Under
the terms proposed by the Dawes
commission the tribal government
was to be relInqulshed, In which
event, accordingly to the treaty,
the title 20 the land would revert
to the government of the United
States and the railroad land grant
would be good. The Cherokees
demanded that these claims be
settled prior to entering into any
treaty. This is about the status
of the case. The fault lies with
Dawes commission in failing TO
treat with the Cherokees. In so
far as allotment is concerned, 1t is
"a consummation devouuy to be
wished -

WHILE so much is being said
about the failure or refusal of the
Cherokees to treat with the Dawes
commission, the reasons for that
failure should not be lost sight of en-
tirely. A very large and intelli-
gent portion of Cherokee citizens
were in favor of treaty until it
developed that the Dawes COM
mission favored claims against the
nation that simply meant robbery
and ruin to the Indians. The Dawes
commission never had a better
friend than The CHIEFTAIN, as
long as it showed disposition TO
deal fairly, but when the commits
sion took Dick Adams into part
nership then the paper and the
commission come the ''parting OF
the ways"

SOME of the territory papers a

SOME of the territory papers are
having a good deal to say about
"Wat Duncan and his faxen haired
followers" indicating presumably
that Duncan is not an Indian.
Now the facts are, Duncan is a
Cherokee Indian, and while his
hair and beard are white, it is by
the "snows of many winters" and
by a long and honorable record
among his people. Politically he
stands with the fullblood element,
and like a great many others
doubtless believes that there is
more safety in such a course.
Watt Duncan is one of the men
who have recently saved the Cher
okee government from extinction.

LAST congress passed an act

LAST congress passed an act to
permit the Osages to draw 1,0oO,-
poo of their invested funds "to
|pay them out of debt" But the
Osages, like most other Indians
possessed of any money or valu-
able property, have a citizenship
incubus. The Lumby families,
living in St. Louis, and sundry
other white Indians to the number
of 146, have within a year or SC
been taken off the roll and as soon
as this money became available
they tied it up by legal means and
thus the expected big payment has
pe~cTNme off.
