II is little known that the affairs
OF the Osages are administered sep

unto themselves. They We're original

Their lands have been allotted but oil
company was with the council which
the time OF their removal from Kansas
the government paid the tribe $4,000

also demanding that this money ho

There are now about 2,2O0 members
Of the tribe. Their holdings are cstl-

cinservatively estimated that they arc
worth about $4,000 each. They arc
by far tho richest nation. individually

that last week the government had a

to that raised by Sir Frederick Ban

precedents for the course proposed.

Mr. Bonar Law replied that the

Mr.. Asquith, white and indignant,

The air was thick with papers and

stalked to the door, greeted with yells
Of defiance and approval. Suddenly
the unionist member, Ronald McNeill,
rushed to the clerks table and seized
a heavy volume. He hurled it at the
first lord of the admiralty, Mr.
