Status ii Citizens.

Indian territory has put many per-
picking questions to be answered and
one Of them is the status Of citizens
in the Choctaw and Chlckasaw ma.
tions, who We're given judgments by
the federal courts Of the southern and
central districts, says a recent Deni-
son (Texas) dispatch.
Il was alleged. after many citizens
were refused enrolment by The Dawes
commission that such citizens had
been deprived of their rights. Hun
dreds Of cases were filed in the courts
at South MeAlester and Ardmore to
compel the commission to enroll these
rejected applicants. and the Indians
made no defense and the applicants
were admitted to citizenship by the
federal courts Upon the hundreds Of
cases passed on, there were other hun
dreds of cases depending, and by the
decree of the courts some two thou
sand people we're adjudged entitled to
enrolment as Chickasaw ami Choctaw
citizens In 1901 the Choctaw and
.Chickasaw citizenship court was Gre
ated by act OF congress, ratifying the
supplemental treaty with the Choctaws
and Chicbasaws. which provided that
all court citizens" should again file
suit, this time in he citizenship court.
and determine whether or not the
judgment Of the federal district courts
shoud stand as rendered.
Many cases were filed, but man
who were admitted to citizenship By
the federal courts refused to Gle. Now.
the Dawes commission wishes to know
where these citizens stand in the eyes
of the law The Chickasaw and Choc.
taw attorneys allege that these peo-
pie, having permitted the time to
elapse in which they could file their
claims, are forever barred from tlti-
zenship, as the decision in one case
by the citizenship court, knocking out
all claims to citizenship, has had the
effect Of adversely disposing of all
other cases depending upon like proof.

Muskogee, /. T., Dec. 26.-The
Dawes commission heard Wednesday
the arguments of the Delaware attor.
neys, ex-senator James X. Jones and
Richard Adams of Washing on, rela-
tive to the manner Of the segrega-
ton Of the Delaware lands. Under the
recent decision of the commission the
segregation was to be made TO include
the group Of improved Delaware hold
ings in the northern part of the Cher
okee nation and the remainder, suf-
ficient to make the requisite $4,000
acres. is to be taken from the public
domain This the Delaware attorneys
wanted changed so that Delawares
could have selections Of land here and
there over the nation where they
claimed improvements
The attorneys for the Cherokees op-
posed this on the grounds that such
ac ION would allow Delawares to hold
excessive lands under the improve
iment claim The contest arises from
the fact that the Delawares claim GER
tain Improvements on land near Bar.
tlesyille ana on some Of the property
there are good oil wells This oil de-
velopment they hold as improvements
and want their lands outside the prin-
cipal segregation selected on and
close to the oil fields instead OF the
flint hills and low grade land that
win constitute the public domain. The
commission decided not to change
