A NOTABLE INDIAN.
Red Cousin of senator Morgan ana m
Leading Citizen of the Cher
olNee Nation.

The Hon. Gideon Morgan Is an en-.
rolled citizen Of the Cherokee nation.
He is a half-breed, a cousin Of United
States Senator Morgan, Of Alabama.
and holds a position Of much promf.
nence and influence among both In.
dams and white men throughout the
indian territory. He was the per.
manent chairman Of the single state.
hood convention recently held al
Oklahoma City, and presided in such
dignified, able and impartial way
as 10 cali forth the praise and admira.
ton of the delegates and everybody
else present. The "Oklahoman," In
Its reports of the meetings Of the con.
vention, particularly extols the con-
duct and work of Mr.. Morgan, saws
the Kansas City Journal.
But the compliments bestowed upon
the Indian statesman for the ability
and good judgment be displayed on
this occasion is not so interesting as
the fact that a leading Oklahoma
paper calls him. who Is only half In
dian, Representative Cherokee in
every sense of the word" and "a per.
feet type Of the civilized. educated
American Indian" The "Oklahoman"
has an intimate knowledge Of Indian
life and affairs, and undoubtedly has
advisedly used these terms and
phrases. And the natural conclusion
20 be drawn therefrom is that II Mr..
Morgan is a perfect type Of az Indian.
there are no full-blood Indians now
existing in the country. This idea.
however, is not a new one. II pre.
walls to n wide extent among the
people of the United States. and is
justified by the appearance and Gus
tom of the Indians themselves nova
days. IL is the accepted belief that
the red men were originally so-called
because of their color. The Indians
OF the territory are perhaps as near
TO their primitive state as the Indians
in any other part of the nation are
and yet IL would be impossible TO find
very many there the color of whose
skin would warrant the epitbet Of
red men," In fact, Of the 81. 600 in
the territory which the government
classes as Indians, only ten per cent.
are recognized as full-bloods. and even
the latter have copper or muddy gel
low complexion.
There were hundreds Of thousands
more Indians in this country when
Columbus discovered it than Is shown
to be here in the last census. But Il
would seem that the disappearance
Of the noble redman has been brought
about not as much by war as by other
and gentler influences.
