FIVE MILLIONS
GOVERNMENT CLAIM PAID
AFTER SEVENTY-FIVE YEARS
Matter has Been Litigatcd Since 1850
Original Amount Due From Lana
That Is sold to Uncle Snm--Con'cst
Is Bitter and Carried to Highest
Court.

Washlngton.-A $5,000000 melon
that has been ripening for nearly 10
years is at last being sliced by the
government for distribution among
the Cherokee Indians.
1t has been a standing claim OF the
Indians against Uncle Sam since 1852
In that year the government owed the
Cherokee's. for land purchased, the
sum of $1,1OO,OOO, which lay in the
treasury to their credit with Interest
/ at 5 per cent,
Then one fine day an error was
made in the auditing department or
the treasury and it appeared, accord
ing to the books, that the Cherokee's
had nothing to their credit Their
head men took up the matter, hired
lawyers ana for 65 long years labored
to establish their claim. They tried
the executive officials and besieged
congress but without making an i'm
preston worth a cent, to say nothing
of the millions they were after. They
were told that the books showed they
had nothing coming and, government
records being infallible, there was no
ground for argument SO it was, year
after year. as the Indians made their
! pilgrimage to Washington.
About 10 years ago the aspect of
things changed somewhat when Rob-
ert L. owen, an attorney in Musko-
gee, 1. r., was given charge of the
claim. He was a member of the
! Cherokee nation through his mother S
side while his father was Robert L.
owen, Virginian and president of
the Tennessee railroad. Attorney
owen was highly educated, he had
wit and Judgment besides, and he
proceede TO make things move. The
first thing to do was to get permis-
sion from Congress to proceed against
the government in the court of claims
and prove that the rusting dollars OF
the ancient Cherokee fund really lay
IT, the vaults of the treasury. He got
II and afterwards repeated the acn-
Iievement. two hearings in the court OF
claims being necessary to prove up
the claims OF the Indians. In the
seven years campaign he conducted
Mr.. owen induced congress to pass
three bills and two resolutions neces-
sary in his work. Anybody feeling
that it is not much of job to get that
much action out Of the greatest legis-
lotove body in the world has never
undertaken any little old task like
moving the Rocky mountains
