What is the cause of the miseries of
Chief Crazy Snake and his tribe of Creek
Indians of Oklahoma?
Although different reasons may be
given for the troubles of Chief Crazy
Snake and his followers of the Creek tribe
of Indians of Oklahoma, upon investigation
it will be found that the basic cause OF the
miseries of this people (as in most cases
OF Indian troubles) arises from a disregard
OF the treaties made by the United States
with the Indian tribes.

that the Creek tribe or nation Of Indians,

Whether or not the Creek Indian country

upon the erroneous doctrine that congress

who proved the mascot of that New Jer-

the gentle COW to increase her yield of
milk. The Swiss girl brought with her
from, the mountain republic knowledge
of the art of yodling and she yodled free

Jerseyman's farm. For a time il is
nrobable that the farmer did not realize
the full benefit he was receiving from
these free concerts, but presently he no.
ticed that the cows were yielding larger
and richer supply of milk. and 1t dawned
unon him that the Swiss warbler pos

alas. II was matrimony that took away
the luck of the original comic opera pos

that robbed the dairyman OF his yodlng
