retary OF the interior, for this reas-
on, fixed eighty acres as the
amount to be selected by each
citizen prior to final allotment.
This arrangent is intended to en-
courage citizens in the settlement
OF homes upon the public domain
and to facilitate the work of final
distribution of the lands ofthe
tribe; and certainly no reasonable
objection can be made thereto by
any person, except by one who de-
sires to continue to hold more than
his share.
Such selection, therefore, may
be made by acitizen, at his option.
He is not compelled to do SO. If
at the time of general allotment
his selection is found to be, in val
ue, his full share, he will receive
no more. If less, then other lands
will be allotted to him, in order to
make up his full share. + in ex-
cess of his share provision of some
kind will be made by which his
allotment will be reduced and made |
equal to that of other citizens.
Selections thus made under the
rules of the secretary, are not
intended to and cannot in any
manner. affect the rights of a citi-
zen to hold lands according to the
provisions of the Curtis bill, which
authorizes. him to occupy, use and
receive the benefits from his APP
proximate share in value of the
whole lands of the tribe until final
allotment, but require that he hold
no more.
No expression, either oral or
has ever gone out from the
Dawes commission contrary to the
of the Curtis bill and
rules of the secretary as hereinbe-
fore given. On the contrary, mum.
srous letters have been written to
citizens throughout the territory,
many Of which have gone to citi-
ems of the Cherokee nation, in
Ieeping with this construction.
The editorial to which you refer
Ipd others OF like character, could /
lot, therefore, have been predica- {
ed upon any expression coming
rom this commission.
The only duty enjoined upon q
be commission in the premises, is
o establish an office within the
limits of the Cherokee nation for
uch purpose, which will be done, c
s early as it may be able to do t
MS work properly efficiently. O
With the further execution of the |,
Nv, this commission has nothing t,
hatever to do. This is left to C
theirs in whom the government has s.
sposed its confidence, and these S
lay at all times be assured of the S
iendly cooperation and hearty S
lpport of the members of the ri
in the execution of 1t
le law as tits written. ir

CROSSED THE RUBlCoN

My previous discouTses on real estate
are bearing fruit: those who have read
them, ana, judging from the number Of
inquirers. they are up in the thousands.
are investigating the subject. The vacant
lands in and near Savannah have assum-
ed a value that non-thinkers did not
think about a month ago. My discourses
have opened the eyes of the blind TO the
steady growth Of the city and the increas-
ing value of building lots. There is one
thing very observable in this movement;
il is that the city's extension is southeast.
It has crossed the Rubcon," as it were,
that means the right of way and tracks
of the Plant System, TO the neglect Of
property directly southwark; the back
bone which heretofore has been considered
the only true line Of Improvement, has
given way 10 the east side.
The farthest lots on Ninth street are not
as far east as that lovely settlement,
THE Meadows" 1 mention this so that
you can &c. your geographical bearings
adjusted. If you buy lot on Ninth street
and build a house you can look out of
your window and see nice houses farther
from the thickly built up part of the city
than yours.
If there was ever a time when a man in
Savannah could afford 10 buy real estate
1t is this. Money is cheap, whether you
want TO build a house, or buy lot or lots,
to hold for a rise. Just make an enquiry
as to the present price of that lot you
looked at and would not buy in 1897 or 1898
and ascertain what is asked for II in
this year. A. d. 1897 1t will surprise you'll
Just wait until next year when the steady
reliable old city closes up its vacant spaces
and you will be surprised again. I believe
that this is the time to invest in real estate,
and there is no better chance to do that
than in Ninth street lots. / don't like the
word boom" but don't know any word
that suits better, and I therefore use 1t.
Savannah may not be on BOOM" but it
is on the edge of something very like it.
and If there is not a big advance in the
prices of real estate before this season is
over 1 am no judge of the indications.
Let all those who want pointers on real
estate call on me. shall be glad to talk
with them. especially about Ninth street
lots. With kind regards. I am faithfully
yours, c. H. DORSETT,

NEGROES TALK OF REVENGE.
Crowd of Them Preparing to Visit

Palmetto sunday.
Atlanta, May "A report reached the At

mustered out of the army, in which he had
served as a sergeant, was engaged in or
gauizing a crowd 10 go down TO Palmetto
next Sunday to visit the scene of the burn
ing Of sam Hose.
According to the information in the
hands of the police, an the negroes who
have been approached have been told to
go armed as there might be trouble in
store for the crowd at Palmetto. Steps
have been taken TO guard against the ma
FERTILIZATION of the plans OF the negroes,
and if any considerable number of them
essay TO make the trip they will be closely
watched and measures taken to keep them
in order.
The Hose affair has had several out
groupings here that cause some apprehen-
sion of trouble. The letter to DR.. Brough-
ton, advising him TO leave town was one
Doint
Another is the fact that Mr.. Walter
Forbes, the owner of the blood hounds
which We're sent to Newman to track Hose,
has received three letters during the past
three days purportlng 10 be from negroes
living in the neighborhood of Palmetto.
The letters are fun of abusive language
and close with a warning that the negroes
have marked him. as Wen as all others
who were foremost in the pursuit and ex-
ecution of Hose, for their vengeance.
1t is said that other Atlanta people have
also received similar letters purporting to
be from committee of Palmetto negroes,
warning them of negro vengeance.
