Indian Land Proclamation VIII
Provide For Registering.

Private advices received by the Santa
Fe passenger departmen from its
agents in washington assert that the
proclamation for the opening of the In
dian lands, to be made on Monday. will
declare in favor of the lottery plan Of
distribution. but will make it absolute
Iy imperative that every one who wants
some of the land shall register at the
government land Office in one of the
following towns: Guthrie. Oklahoma
City. Perry, Alvah and Woodward. All
these points are in Oklahoma
It is necessary that the person who
registers shall appear in person. No
proxy signing will be accepted
This is in the nature OF a compromise
between those who were radically in IA
vor of a free for all rush. and those
who wanted everybody in the United
States to egt a free chance in the lot
terry It will now be necessary for any
one who desires to get free home to
manifest considerable of a. desire to do
so by making the trip to one of the gov
eminent land Offices of the territory.
