THE Vinita Leader suggests Sc
quoyah as an appropriate name for
the state that will eventually lie
formed out of the Indian Territory.
Two of the sages of the Cherokee
nation, John l.. Adair, now dead,
and William Eubanks, of Table
quah, as early as three years ago,
to the writer's certain knowledge,
contributed IN article each to the
Indian Sentinel on this question,
and Adair wanted the name of Sc
quOyah placed in the next treaty
made between the United States
and the Cherokee nation and a
certain portion of the public do
main set apart to be sold after al
lotment for the purpose of erecting
monument in honor of the man
who invented the Cherokee alpha

always hoped that if the Territory
should ever become a state that
SequOyah would be its name.
