Cherokee Contest
Whites Fighting Full Bloods For
Share Of Tribal Lands and Funds

Muskogee 1. r., April s-The
evidence in the case Of the adopted
white citizens Of the Cher
okee nation against the fullbloods
has been taken and the case will be
heard by the court of claims in
May. This is a case involving
the rights Of 4 600 whites who have
intermarried with Cherokee Indians
and are fighting for a right to share
in the tribal lands and moneys of
the nation, OH the same footing as
a fullblood Indian.
According to the old Cherokee
law, when a white man married
into the tribe he was adopted at
the same time, the marriage giving
him that right. To secure a mar
iage license, however, he had to
secure a petition signed BY ten
Indians and to pay to the clerk a
fee Of $40, which went to the ma
tion. The fullblood Indians have
always contended that this gave
the adopted citizens a right only
to the protection Of the laws Of the
nation and the privilege 10 live
among them, and did not eutitle
them TO any land or money held
by the tribe in common to be dis
tributed in severalty.
In thi. fight the fullbloods stand
alone, as the national council does
not dispnte the rights Of the adopt
ed whites and instructed its attor-
neys not to contest the case, 4
provision having made, they assert
in the Cherokee treaty Of 1895
But the fullbloods have made up
purse and succeeded in getting th'
mattel into court. The Ketoowal
society is backing this move to ex
clude the whites
The whites have pooled theiI
claims and have employed William
T. Hutchings 10 defend thei
interests.
