saying good deal. for many of them
in Oklahoma have struck OIL and
are very wealthy. In the 1920 report
of the secretary of the interior are
found these facts and figures:
The Indians in Oklahoma constitute
nearly one-third of their race in the
United States and about five-sixths
of them are members Of the five CIV
iliZed tribes.
There are on the Usage reservation
in Oklahoma nearly 5000 oil wells,
producing from 2 to 1900 barrels per
day each, with daily total produc-
ton of about $4,000 barrels. During
the year three Oil-lease sales were
held, offering at each sale approx
mately 200 auarter-section tracts. APP
proximately 9S,S66 acres were leased
at these sales for bonus consldera-
ton of $12 110,1OO. Oil leases embrac-
ing 54O.S66 acres are included in lands
leased for gas. In addition to bonus
royalty is paid on oil of 1914 per
cent and upward and the same on
gas based on a value of Is cents per
1000 cubic feet for gas at the we'll.
Nearly S1S,O00,000 were received by
Usage Indians from oil and gas during
the fiscal year.
AS to the five civilized tribes, the
superintendent receipts and disburse-
ments for the year were nearly $40
100000, the largest of any year in the
history of that office. There were 81
800 oil and gas leases disposed OF DUR
ing the year. Nearly $4,S00,OOO in
bonuses and royalties were received
by the restricted Indians. Federal in
come tax in excess of $350,000 was
paid by 242 restricted Indians.
When America entered the World
war, the Indian was willing volun-
.teer. The American Indian is-or used
TO be-the finest natural fighter the
world ever saw. The bucks of serv-
ice age enlisted in large numbers
made splendid soldiers and covered
themselves with glory. Many were
decorated for extraordinary gallantry
under fire.
| During the war Barnett showed his
martial spirit in the only way it was
possible for him. While others of his
race shouldered arms and marched
away to France, there to do battle side
by side with their white brethren. Bar
nett was too old to heed the wal
dance. He soon showed, however, thai
while age prevented him from takins
an active part in lowering the colors
of the Hun, he could do the next hes
thing and support Uncle Sam through
the medium of his vast riches.
When the government. after enter
ing the World war, issued the call fol
financial assistance Jackson Barnet
answered as readily as the youngel
members of his tribe answered tn,
call for men. He was one of the frs
of Okmulgee county citizens to show
his patriotism in the purchase of Lib
erty bonds, and by most liberal con
tributions to all of their war aids
AS each successive bond issue wa
placed on the market, Barnett becam

that today he is millionaire in Lib
erty and Victory bonds alone, ownin;
more than 100000 worth of them.
