PER CAPITA
PAYMENT
To INDIANS
LETTER FROM GOVERNOR D. H..
JOHNSTON TO CONFERENCE
COMMITTEE OF HOUSE AND
SENATE BEARING HIS VIEWS.

Tishomingo, Okla, Aug. 23.-Gover-
nor Douglas II. Johnston, chief eXecu-
tive of the Chickasaw nation, has made
public the following letter which he
wrote last month while the Indian ap-
preparation bill was under consider
Iation by congress:
Washington, ID. c., July ~ 1914
To the Members of the Senate and
House Conference Committee, the
Speaker of the House and the Inte-
rior Department. Gentlemen: With
high regard, profound respect and an
mated solely by a sense of duty to
my people, | call to your attention the
violation of certain treaty obligations
by the national congress
"By the Atoka agreement of 1898 We
were pledged a distribution of the
ChOctaw-C Chickasaw funds per capita
BY the supplementary agreement of
1902 we were again promised a distri-
button of said funds per capita. The
act of 1906 provided for the payment
of same per capita.
Many years have passed since the
execution of said agreements and the
passage of said act My country has
been visited by famine and drouth
Many of my people are destitute and
in poverty and in want. Many have
mortgaged their alienable property
and are without funds to meet the in
debtedness. Many were allotted unim-
proved lands and are without means
to improve same, and without stock
and without implements with which
to cultivate same. And yet their mon
ey, to the amount of millions, is
molding in the treasury vaults, and
their agreements are broken and ig-
nored.
"Who is responsible for this condi-
tion? Who should answer for this
breach of contract? Why have these
payments been withheld? Are wards
of the government to continue to suf
fer from hunger and lack of clothing
and be deprived of the means of earn
ing a livelihood when they have in
the United States treasury more than
$7000,000 in cash, and more than $2O,-
100000 due and coming due?
should not this condition appeal
to the conscience of fair minded men
having charge of the administration
of their affairs, and should not pro-
vision providing for per capita pay
ment prevail?
"The Indian committees of the
house and senate have favorably re.
ported an item providing for the pay.
ment of 500 per capita from the
Observation-Disclosures tribal funds. The
department of the interior has re-
ported several million dollars to the

vance of May corn to "A cents appar-
entity guarantees the presence of July

an entire destruction OF our 1913 wheat,

creates an uneasy situation for bears

September oats started the crop

supply and realization that oats were
too cheap brought a rally to 80 cents

Liberal weekly decreases in the
