Is their intention to defeat the
measure or simply to amend it.
There are a number Of newspapers
down in the southern end Of the
territory that have been especially
clamorous for change Of govern
ment in this country, and now that
it is about to come, they are op-
posing it with all their might. But
the change Is coming and in less
than year from this date the In
dian citizens Of al the FIVE tribes
will be quietly and peacefully TAX.

The Secretary OF the Interior issues an
Intruder order.

Washington, ID. g.. January n
Secretary Francis issued an or.
der today directing that all claim
ants to citizenship in the FIVE civ
ilized tribes OF the Indian Terri
tory whose applications were re-
jeeted by the Dawes commission,
and who failed to appeal to the
United States courts within sixty
days Of rejection, and all non-cili-
zens who did not apply for citizen
ship and who are now occupying
lands belonging TO the five tribes,
shall vacate these lands of the
tribes by February 6 next. This
action affects a host Of people
throughout the territory, many OF
whom are preparing to plant and
grow crops, and is mainly directed
against the Cherokee intruders.
The Indian agent is daily ex-
pecting his orders TO make the ev.
ictions Of those who do not vacate
voluntarily aud their receipt will
probably be announced next week
ia these columns.

AFTER a good deal of wrangling
aud discussion on the subject OF
land titles, the citizens Of the
Cherokee nation have at last strug.
gled up to a position from which
they can appreciate that clause in
the constitution which says: "the
lands ci the Cherokee nation shall
remain common property" When
they have thoroughly reached this
indisputable conclusion. little sleep
will be lost over the sale Of parks
or the purchase Of imaginary titles

shall remain common property un.

THERE are some provisions in
the Platt bin printed in this paper
that would certainly be fatal to
tribal relations as they now exist
for instance, the section making
bribery and embracery a crime.

TIE outlines OF the change in
this territory that has been talked
OF for a quarter Of a century can be
very plainly discerned in the
Platt bill. Between the lines can
be seen the new government, ADD
a brighter and better day for this
Indian country. But watch the
leaders Of this Cherokee nation

position to this sweeping measure
comes from. While the common

The return Of Gus Ivey, the de-
faulting secretary Of the board Of
education last week, ought to be
sufficient to remind the people OF
the Cherokee nation that OF all the
defaulting district clerks aud other
Cherokee officials, not one OF their
bondsmen was ever made to make
good a cent of tie money stolen.
There has been money enough
taken by the officials Of the nation
TO pay the public debt twice over.

The order Of the secretary of the
interior issued from Washington
City last Friday providing for the
summary removal Of intruders
would seem 10 indicate that the
government was at last convinced
that the time TO act in this matter
had arrived. As has been so often
said before, this is the beginning
Of the end. The order effects those
who have been decided against
by the Dawes commission and
have not appealed their cases.
