Taxation Ct lndi," Lands.

The principal plank in Charley
Cartera first platform was remOavl
OF restrictions and taxation Of lands.
The passage Of the restriction bill,
which removed restrictions on nine
and one. half million acres Of land of
the Five Civilized Tribes and carry
ing a provision making same taxable
was principally due to Mr.. Carter
efforts. The fact that the taxation
feature Of this bill has been declared
unconstitutional by the United States
supreme court is no fault OF his.
In his speech on this restriction
bll on March u, 1903 (more than
four years ago.. Mr. Carter made The
following observation:

You have exempted the Indians
land from taxation, when the most
casual glance into history viii dis
close the fact that it has always pro-

class of people from taxation. It Is
