in ChOefaVv Nation

Ardmore, I. T., May 29.-Henry c. Kess-
Ter chief appraiser in Camp No. II, at
work in the Choctaw nation, gives the
following report of the work thus far.
He says: I'VE have just completed the
appraising of the agricultural lands in
the Choctaw nation. Camp No. u has
been located about thirty miles from

all agricultural lands IN the five civilized
tribes excepting in the Cherokee nation,

are fast finishing up the appraisement
Of Indian agricultural lands, and their
work viii be completed by August /.
The timber appraisers are now work
ing in the timber belt in the Choctaw ma
ton. The Choctaw country has a great
deal of fine timber lands, and these are
being appraised separately from the agri-
cultural lands. Six camps are at work

camps have finished their work it viii

to the Indians.
THE Dawes commission is now working
hard to complete the rolls in the Chero-
kee and Creek nations. the rolls of the
Seminoles having long ago been com
pleted and alIotments of lands now in
progress. The rolls in the Chickasaw
and Choctaw nations have practically
been completed. ready for allotment, but
the supplemental treaty made between
the Chickasaw -Choctaw commissioners /
and the Dawes commission having fail
ed Of ratification by congress. the rolls
in these nations have not been closed /
and cannot be closed, therefore allotment !
cannot proceed. The governors Of the +
Chickasaw nation and the Choctaw ma
ton are trying TO get an agreement for /

the yield viii be as large as II was last
year. There may not be as many bush

opinion, that IN some localities in the ter
ritory there viii be Just as good a yield

OF the western counties where the land
owners never raised much wheat before
this year. there are large fields and It IS
in good condition too. Some of the fields

suited Ia the above name organiza lions,
and the general open hostility between
the two factions.
The farmers went armed and drove
the cattle from their crops. occasionally

them to their owners until the damage

The cattle men insisted that they had
a right 70 turn their cattle out under
the existing herd law, but went further
and denied fhe right Of the farmers to
drive the cattle from their crops unless
their farms were fenced.
The cattle men secured an injunction
from the probate court Of Custer county
and in the absence of Judge Irwin, which
prevented the farmers from even driving
the cattle from their crops.
This action brought about a revolu-
ton among the farmers. who immedi-
ately banded together for the purpose Of

curbings has been used, the earth being
of a very loose. sandy character. Whilst
Stone was at the bottom the pressure Of
the loose sand behind one OF the curbs

to pour in. Recognizing his peril. the

at this juncture the plank caught on
