Approved the Bill.

From Denison comes the news
that the president has returned
with his approval the Chickasaw
law fixing the marriage license fee
at ST., 900 to nom citizens who wish
to take unto themselves Chiekasaw
wives.
The law provides that all young
white men who desire to marry
Chickasaw girls must first prove
that they are of good moral charac-
ter and must pay a marriage license
fee to the Chickasaw nation in the
sum of $1,000. This will keep
many of them from marrying, but
those who prefer half loaf to no
loaf at all will still go on to the
Territory, select a bride bring her
to Texas, and marry her under the
Texas laws. He will then be privi-
legged to select an allotment of
approximately 500 acres of good
land, half the amount he might
have secured had he been married
under the Chickasaw law. Then,
of course, if he takes up an allot-
ment for himself, be must put up
bonus of So an acre for his allot-
ment, which the new Chickasaw
law means. The fact that he has
to prove himself of good moral
character is the strong point of the
bill.
