REGARDING CHEROKEE PERMITS.
Indian Agent Wisdom's Letter Of In
structiOn to Treasurer ID. w. Lipe.

Tahlequah Arrow:
Agent Wisdom has issued the
following letter to Treasurer D. w.
Lipe, of the Cherokee nation, au-
thorizing him to issue licenses TO
United States citizens to trade in
that nation, and to collect the tax
es due the nation from such busih-
ess, and also authorized the solicit
ors of the several districts to assist
Major Lipe when so authorized by
him as treasurer. Article s of the
treaty made by the United States
with the Cherokees in 1866 provid-
ing that no license to trade in
goods, wares OF merchandise shall
be granted by the United States to
trade in the Cherokee nation, un-
less approved by the Cherokee
national council, etc, has been
held to be imperative on account
of being in conflict with section
212S, U. S. revised statutes which
is of subsequent date TO that
treaty.
Col. Wisdom's action in this
matter is approved by United
States Judge John r. Thomas.
and i. is believed will result in a
large increase in the revenues of
the Cherokee nation.

Prosperous Alton.

The citizens of Alton are deserving
of credit for the assidious qualities dis
played IN the rebuilding of that un-
fortunate place. The entire business
portion of the city was destroyed by
fire Sept. 24th, of last year. Since
that time there has been built twelve
large stone buildings, five of which are
two story, and material is on the
ground for five more similar struc-
lures. In addition there have been
several frame buildings erected for
business purposes.
III. +. Hills building is said to be
the longest building in the Cherokee
nation, being l20 feet in length. Mr.
Hill has in this building large stock
of hardware.
Alton now has a bank which is said
to be doing an excellent business.
Travelling men and Others need not
now fear the bill of fare at Alton, as
Phil Bates, formerly Of NeoshO, has
opened the new Hotel Patterson, and
it can safely be said that no better
accommodation can be found in the
territory.

The school board met last night and
decided to hold a special election to

ing and to make other necessary i'm
provements.

Stephens. are also aldermen. and they
were engaged at the city hall.

to draw up a notice for a special cleo
ton. at which the bond question will
be submitted to the electors of the dis

complete the building. There Is only

will doubtless be the handsomest ward
school in the state.
After disposing of the report of the
finance committee the board adjourned,
subject to the call of the president.
