the games pleaded with Mr.. Sharsig
for permission to continue making

II IL in the effect that may follow
the practice that the evil exists. Dur
ing the seventies the gamblers formed
a combination with the players, with
such dire results that In 1915 the
Philadelphia Club was expelled and In
1876 similar action was taken In the
case Of the Athletics of this city. and

EFFECT OF TREATY

ARGUMENT FOR RATIFICATION.
If Pending Agreement BE Reject.
ed, Applications Long on File
Will BE Promptly
Passed Upon.
The Republic Bureau.

Washing on, April 6.-AdvIces from the
Indian Territory are to the effect that there
is serious opposition in the Cherokee Ma
agreement or treaty. This opposition is
principally on account of section 19 OF the
treaty. which Is as follows:
Section 20 That nothing in this act contained
% y or T per e1 v ar 20 r Eli rh hepe
3tore acquired by lsass location deys:onmnt or or
validate any such rights.
This provision was inserted at the very
last moment. before the bill was reported
TO the House. II was prepared by Senator
panies had appeared before the Conference
Committee and urged recognition of their
leases. one was a coal lining company
which claimed certain leasehod privileges
for mining surface coal on the lands occu-
pied by Edwards a Cherokee citizen. near
Collinsviile. Edwards favored the claims
of the coal company. and no other persons
claimed any interest in the matter. 1t was
of little or no consequence TO the general
public; and 1t made no difference to the
Cherokee people whether the companys
claims were recognized in the new treaty
or not. The committee gave the matter but
little consideration. and was not disposed TO
take any notice of II.
Purpose of the Provision.
The other mining company which ao-
peared before the Conference Committee
was known as the. Cherokee on and Gas
kansas. and the stock in which was owned
by citizens of Arkansas and the Indian Ter
ritory. 1t appeared to have no connection
with the Cudahys the Standard Oil Com
pany. 1t claimed leaseEcld rights on
large body OF land-about 5000 acres-near
Chelsea. west of the st. Louis and san
Francisco Railroad.
The lease which was exhibited to the COM
mittee was executed by the Treasurer OF
the Cherokee Nation more than ten years
ago, and by its terms it had expired. and
there was no pretense that It had been re-
newed. The attorney for the company
Claimed that the company was entitled to
renewal by reason of the fact that 1t had
developed oil in commercial quantities. hav-
ing. as alleged. expended about $4,000 in
upon the lands. The committee
were of the opinion that the company had
no rights whatever in the matter and de-
clined to recognize the company any way
In the new treaty.
But some Of the committee thought It
best to make declaratory statement of It's
position in reference to mining rights In the
Cherokee Nation: ard hence section 70 was
inserted. Its purpose was to advise all
parties concerned that the new treaty was
not intended to settle any dlsputed uues-
tions in reference to mining rights. but that
all such questions should be left in the
same condition az they would be II no
treaty was made. The section inserted
means that and nothing more. Nothing in
the act or treaty shall be held or construed
to change. alter. modify or impair an: ex-
listing coal or oil rights heretofore acquired.
or to ratify. confirm recognize or validate
any such rights.
