CAUSES DEEP DISAPPOINTMENT.
Defeat Of Cherokee Treaty Prompts
Some Severe Roasts.

Muskogee, l. T., May p
There is little doubt that the
Cherokee treaty has been de-
feated from 500 to l,200 votes.
The result is indeed a surprise
IN the way of returns, as dis
tricts and men who were SUP
posed to be for the treaty are
against it. The district attor-
ney. Soper, who is in town,
stated today that the Curtis bill
would be enforced to the letter.
This will mean much litigation,
for wherever il has been at
tempted TO enforce the Curtis
law lawsuit has followed, 10
some cases the coustitutionality
of the bill has been questioned
by the courts
Senator Jones Of Arkansas,
and Senator Quarles Of Wiscon-
sin, who are here on an investi-
eating committee of the senate,
both of whom are members of
the Indian committee stated
that this was the last opportun-
| ity the Cherokees would have IN
making a treaty, and that they
had shown by their votes that
they preferred the Curtis bill,
which would be enforced to the
letter and at once. Senator
Jones Istated that Burlington,
while in Washington, seemed
quite anxious to make the treaty
but upon his return to the terri.
tory had begun to fight it.
Chairman Bixby, of the Dawes
Commission was asked about
the result, and stated that he
was indeed disappointed, as he
had hoped the treaty would car
ry. He added that the only
thing left now was the division
of the land in the Cherokee Ma
tion according to value, which II
some cases, would give citizen:
only forty acres on account o.
its rich value. This land feature
was one of the causes of the de
feat of the treaty.
