INDIANS RAISE KICK.

Land Ruling.

Land Ruling.
Holdenyille, l. T.. Sept. S-A new
ruling sent ont from the interior de.
partment at Washington requiring In.
dians Of the Greek Nation who would
sell their lands to put up a fee Of 81. so
with each petition before the land will
be posted for sale. is causing mucn
dissatisfaction among Indians in this
vicinity, who have received notice
from the Union agency at Muskogee
Of the requirement Many of the In.
dians, especially the full-bloods. have
difficulty in getting ready cash and
hence will be prevented by the rule
| from selling their lands. Some OF the
leaders in the tribe are angry ana
express the opinion that the fee re-
Guirement was secured through the
misrepresentation of the land graft
.'- Of the territory to he in .,rior de.
p rtment so that the Indians may be
/ prevented from selling their lands
until the tribal government is dissolv.
.l. in 1906 and the restrictions from
'h sale of property are removed.
One of the officers in the triba! gov.
crnmcnt of the Creek Nation said to-
day that many of the land grabbern
are anxious for the in1ians to holl
onto their land until rce,-ictions are
removed. hoping to T., much of the
ground up by leasing it for a period
OF several years, just before the tri.
bal relations are dissolved In this
erty at a low price or hold IL for
mining purposes. The lald SHARKS.
it is argued by some of the leaders of
the tribe, are of the opinion that
when restrictions are removed most
of the Indians will want to sell at
once and that land can be purchased
cheaper on that account.
At present there are about 2Ol
pieces of Creek lanls which are post
el for sale at the Indian agency In
speaking OF the ruling from the stand
point of the Indians, an officer of the
Creek tribe said:
The requirement of a fee of St.5C
from each Indian who would sell hi.
land will amount to heavy tax upor
the large number of land holders who
get permission to sell Since the re-
strictiOns are to be entirely removed
in the near future the Indians, espe
cialIy the full-bloods, would profit By
selling their lands now. We ar,
strongly opposed to a fee. In case.
where an Indian has pieces of Ian,
> not adjoining he would have to pa,
S for each separate piece which woul,

4 On the other hand, those who favo

y should hold onto his land until restriC
tions are removed argue that the new
p. requirement will prove a blessing T.

Will Irwin, who collaborated with
GeIett Burgess in 1.-THE Picaroons" and
"The Reign of Queen Isyl," has recent.
ly left his native California to come
East and join the forces of the New
York Sun. He was formerly Sunday
editor of the San Francisco Chronicle,
A rather "spooky" incident lies behind
his decision to accept the Sun offer. A
short while ago letter came to him,
and, when he opened it, he received
quite q shock of surprise in recogniz-
ing the handwriting of his friend, the
novelist, Frank Norris, who had been
dead some months. The friend to
whom the letter had been entrusted
had delayed in mailing it. In it Norris
advised Irwin TO "Get Co New York"
and the delayed epistle arrived just in
time TO help Irwin decide to accept the
offer to come East.

asked for an allowance of 800 a
week for the support of herself and

that she had worked in the hay field

receiving the visitors. Dinner will be
served at the Auditorium at noon. A

and camp fire will be held in the ev.
ening, at which time it is expected that
Senators Alger and Burrows and other
speakers will deliver addresses. A dress
parade will also be held on the first day.
On the second day there will be a
street parade, business meeting and
election of officers, to conclude with a
dress parade and camp fire. The old

being unable TO come on account of

menIs were made for other work, q lady

very industrious and of happy dis
position. She makes fancy articles of
various kinds for sale, such as
crocheted doilies, handkerchief cases,
tides, and dozens of other things so

can see, wonder how she does 1t. She
has bought piano, which is all paid
for by her own industry and little sun
shine assistance just at the last, which
probably would not have been need
ed, had she not had long and serious
illness during the past year. Mrs. Geo
Mcclure, the president of Marvin
branch, will order bonnets for her two
little girls of Miss Stewart and the
young lady will undoubtedly receive
many orders through the efforts of
Marvin branch.
Mrs. Hill, an old lady who believes in
sunshine, and having so few of this

has the will can do something, though
being well on to three score and ten

she has picked number of pals OF

things for her beloved Sunshine"
