Little announcement for the Kiclza-
poOs to Move to Wisconsin.

Washington. March 27=There has
been considerable talk this year in
Kansas Of pending measures to enable
the KiCkapoO Indians in Brown county
to exchange their lands for tribal land
in Wisconsin, and remove to the latter
state. Tt is not likely, however, that
the interior department viii sanction
the proposed step. Their removal has
met with opposition from several ad-
Manifestations. on the ground that the
government should not favor any steps
calculated to allow the Indians, whose
lands have been allotted, and who
have become citizens, to go back into
a tribal state.
The matter has been agitated for a
number of years, and about $50 In
dams moved to Wisconsin about five
years ago The Pottawatomies in
Jackson county started the ball and
number of them. with the KickapOos
in Brown county. have been anxious
to join the band now living in Wiscon-
sin.
Some time ago Mr. Curtis, of Kan
sas asked Commissioner Leupp what
his attitude would be toward a bill au-
thorizing these Indians to exchange
their allotted lands for tribal lands in
Wisconsin. The reply was not favor
able and the Kansas mem Der dropped
the matter. He sold last evening that
no encouragement would be extended
70 such a policy, although their right
to exchange their lands and move to
another state was vouchsafed to the
Indians under the treaty of 1873
There are 25S KickaDoos in Kansas,
owning about 10000 acres, and $50
Pottawatomies, with 10000 acres in
jackson county.
