LETTER FROM MR.. RExRoAT
Suaqests to Oklahoma Consressmen
Means of Relief From TAX Case

Suggests to Oklahoma consressmen
Means Of Relief From TAX Case
We are reproducing herewith a let
ter from L. T. ReXroat present mem
Der OF legislature from this county,
to Congressman Charles ID. Carter,
on the question of the release OF GER.
tain Indian lands from taxation. Mr..
Rexroat has always paid his taxes
without mllrmur, never seeking to
avail himself of the tcehnicalities OF
the law, or of the Atoka agreement.
In this letter, one similar to which
he has addressed to members in
congress Ferris and Davenport and
to United States Senators Gore and
Owen, Mr.. ReXroat asks that the In
dian be permitted by congress to
carry out the clause of the Atoka
agreement which provides that the
restrictions as set forth in the
agreement be eliminated, one-fourth
in one year. one-half in three years
and the remainder in five years. BY
doing this, Mr.. ReXroat urges that
"our troubles in this part of the state
will he eliminated" and one-half of
the allotted lands will be placed on
the tax rolls. The letter follows:

in the good old fashioned game OF
