OLD CHIEF GERONIMO
REsENTs LATEST OPENING OF
INDIAN LAND TO SETTLEMENT.
Hates and Always win Hate the
White Man for HE Taking Posses
sion Of Land Of the Indians.

There is no Indian living to-day VINO
has so hated the white man as Geron-
imo This fierce, bloodthirsty and
crafty chief of the Apaches has prob
ably given the government more trou-
bic and been the direct and indirect
cause of the death of more whites
than any other half dozen chiefs who
might be named. And all this because
OF the objectionable sin on the part
of the white man that he has taken
the Indians lands. Geronimo is now
an old man and unable, II he had
the opportunity, of resenting by VIC
lence the further intrusion of the
white man. For this reason, perhaps,
the latest opening up Of Indian lands
In Oklahoma comes with a sharper
thrust of bitterness in his heart than
1t would years ago when he could
have found relief for his indignation
in open rebellion and violence.
The last month of this old year has
seen the last of the Indian lands in
Oklahoma given up to white settle.
