Of TOO LATES To
FIGHT FOR ENROLMENT
Meeting Held Here Tuesday Mght---Prepare
to Have Citizens of Old Cherokee Nation
Write Letters to Their Representatives in
COngress---Declare Frank BOudinOt is
Not Representative of CherOkees

Frank Boudinot to represent the Cher
okee people before the courts or before
the departments at Washington, still
he appears and signs his name as rep
them. We think letters and
kilograms should be sent from every
community in the old Cherokee ma
tion to Senators R. L. Owen, Chas.
Curtis, T. P. Gore; also Congressman
P. p. Campbell and Chas. H. Burke
and secretary of the interior and the
commissioner of Indian affairs. These
letters, we think, should set forth in
substance:
/. That our people are practically
unanimously in favor of the enroll
ment of the minor children.
2. That Frank ]. Boudinot does not
represent any one in our country.
3. Make such other statements as
| you may think desirable, and under
this head we would suggest that both
tribal parties in 1903 had a clause in
each of their platforms favoring the
enrolment of minor children. and that
the Cherokee council in September,
1906, passed a resolution unanimously
instructed the Cherokee delegation to
Washington to have these children en-
rolled If possible.
To be frank about it, the time has
come when we people at home should
take some action. We should get to-
gether and go at this matter as we
would any other business affair We
think the people who are interested
should be active and energetic in let
ting congress. the department and the
courts know that the statements per-
sistently made by Boudinot that he
represents the Cherokee people are
not true.
The people interested throughout
the Cherokee nation should organize
at once and see to it that stream of
letters and kilograms from all over
the Cherokee nation reach. the parties
named and that at once,
