The Yinita Chieftain says that
the innocent little clause attached
to the last Indian appropriation
bill comforting c hE nship on the
Indians Of the i've tribes is giving
the authorities up that way some
thing serious TO think about. and
states further that Mr. J GeeEge

know where he stands and be
called for meeting Of leading
lawyers OF Muskogee to consider
the matter and help him unrayel
the problem. The Chieftain says
that the following questions aud
conclusions have arisen during
the discussion Of the act;
.In case the Indians are feder-
al citizens, can they still maintain
a tribal government
Have they a right to provide
for revenue to support such q
tribal government.
Ifthere are no Indian citizens

Ifall residents are citizens Of
the United States have they not
the same right under the federal
constitution to act independently
Of the general governmental and in
diydually In property aud per-
aonal affairs the same as eiiizons

Because of that "innocent little
clause which really means moth

made that the dockets of the
courts viii soon be heavily laden
with new actions at law. The
opinion Of several men well yers-
ed in the law is that a former

sell his birthright-his right to
ever is to be allotted to him as a
share Of the Cherokee lands and

Another matter that sooner or

tribal taxes. If the Indians are

Washington, Dec 20.-It is Secretary
Treasury portfolio as soon as President
Roosevelt can find suitable successor,
and he has so informed the President
Mr.. Gage would like to be relieved be-
fore spring. The President has done all
he could to dissuade Secretary Gage from
retiring and will probably continue to
use his efforts in that direction.
Secretary Cages determination to re-
tire was made known to the President
some little time ago. just how long is
not known.
long conference between the Presi-
dent and Secretary Gage was held before
| the Cabinet meeting today. But it had
nothing to do with the question of the
Secretary's resignation. 1t related t.
the matter of the removal Of Appraiser
Wakeman, whose resignation Secretary
! Gage requested few days ago. APP
praiser Wakeman wrote a letter to Score.
tary Gage declining to resign, and in the
course of which he took occasion to re
fleet upon the secretary. The President
did not approve the spirit of the letter,
and at the conference 1t was decided tC
summarily remove Mr.. Wakeman.
After the Cabinet meeting Secretary
Gage declined to say anything about tho
rumor of his resignation beyond the
simple statement that he had not form
ally" resigned" What | may or may not
do eventually, / am not prepared to say
now" said the Secretary. But l can
say that the relations between the Presi-
dent and myself are perfectly cordial
He would do almost anything l ask, ana
would do almost anything he might
ask
Later the official announcement was
made at the White House that Mr. Wake
man had been removed and that George
w. Whitehead. late Collector of Customs
of Porto Rico, had been appointed 20
succeed him. No further announcement
was made at the Treasury Department
Secretary Gage decline to make public
Mr.. Wakeman's letter. Alfred W.
Brown, the appraiser of merchandise at
the Port of Boston has been ordered TO
Few York to take charge of the ap-
praiser's office there, pending the nomi-
nation of George w. Whitehead to succeed
