OSACES ARE WORTH

THE Osages are still blanket In

are worth $4,000 a piece, person by
person. The youngest of them is
worth as much as the oldest. They
own a certain sum in the United
States treasury and receive their
quarterly stipend. Each Of them
owns $50 acres of land, and in that
land they are finding coal and oil and
valuable minerals. They will not
work. Why should we work? they
say. If they want anything done,
they hire a man to do it for them.
Gambling is common among
them. / was told of a 13-year old
Usage boy, who in the morning had

cherokee Children
Share With Elders
THOSE BORN IN 1902 DURING
ENROLMENT ENTITLED TO
PART OF EXCESS LANDS.

The right of $500 Cherokee Indian
children near Tulsa to share in an un-
distributed allotment of five tnd one
half million dollars from the govern
ment to the Cherokee nation, has
been confirmed by the district court
of appeals at Washington. The court
declares the children are entitled to
share with the six thousand original
members of the Cherokee nation In
surplus lands and money belonging to
the tribe.
The children were born in 1902,
when the Cherokee enrolment was
made. Their right to share in the
surplus fund was denied by the SEN
ior members of the tribe in test
suit brought by Levi V. Grltts Rich
ard NJ. Wolfe and Frank ]. Boudinot
against Secretary of the Interior Fish
er and Secretary of the Treasury
MacVeagh.
The original members of the tribe
were allotted 10 acres of land each.
There was an excess of 100000 acres,
and 1-2 million dollars in cash, all
claimed by the original members.
Fisher and MacVeagh had planned to
distribute the surplus pro rata among
the adults born since 1902, as auth
orized by Congress.
Today the court of appeals said
that congress has authority to delay
enrolment of the tribe so as to in
clude new born children. The decis-
ion was written by Justice Van Ors-
del of the court of appeals, who had
been interested In the litigation be-
fore his appointment to the appellate
bench.
