The rapidity with which the news
OF orders given out from the union |
Indian agency and the Dawes CON-
mission spreads to the remotest cor
ners OF the Greek nation Is contin-
ual source OF wonder to the federal
officials. When, In October, the reg
ulation compelling Indians to accept
the pay for their land In iustaliments
OF $40 month was announced IL
seemed that every Indian In the
Creek country knew IL at once, for
the petitions for sale dropped of i'm
mediately. a few days ago. when
the order was revoked and the Indian
was allowed to pay for his land at
the rate OF Sc u month, practically
everybody knew II the next day and
business In the Creek land sales de-
partment suddenly became lively
again.
When 1t is remembered that there
are several thousand full-hlood In
dams In the Greek nation who can
not speak or read a word OF English
and have no way OF learning the
news of the day except by word OF
mouth, the speed with which in
