200 MILLIONS IS
INDIANS DEMAND
Chickasaws Will Press
Claim for Payment for
Land in Oklahoma.

Oklahoma City, Okla.-Payment for
100000 acres of land in Oklahoma,
once designated as LEASED district"
that now has a value of probably
S2OO,000,0O0, is to be asked of the
United States government by the
Chickasaw Indians, according to
Douglas H. Johnston, governor of the
Gently from Washington, where he re-
mained for six months looking after
the interests of his people.
In controversy, out of which suit
for payment will grow, are involved
doubtful construction of treaty made
in 1865 between the Chickasaws and
the United States government and the
pride Of race exhibited by the Chicka-
saws when they declined to adopt
freedom-negroes who have been
slaves of the Indians-as members Of
the tribe, a consequence Of which Is
that the Chickasaws have remained
singularly free from intermixture with
the negro race.
Were Lease Contracts.
The leased district, in what later
was Oklahoma territory, covered
lands once occupied by the Wichita
and affiliated tribes. The Chickasaws
hold that contracts covering it were
lease contracts. This was an opinion
expressed by the Court of Claims
when the matter first was appealed.
The United States Supreme court,
however, held that contracts involved
conveyances and that the lands were
sold. The area was regarded by the
government as public domain and sold
to settlers for many millions Of dol
lars.
"Under the treaty of 1885," says
Governor Johnston, "the Chickasaws
and Croctaws 'ceded' these western
lands to the United States for certain
specific purposes. These purposes
were, among other things, for the set
tlement Of friendly Indians, for the
freedmen and the settlement Of such
members of the tribe as might desire
to remove thereto. The treaty also
provided for a fund of 100000, which
was to be held in trust by the United
States pending the removal or adop-
ton Of the freedmen. 1t was provid-
ed that the Chickasaw and Choctaw
freedmen were to be removed If the
tribe failed to adopt them within two
years, in which event the 100000
was to be used for removal. If the
tribe adopted such freedmen within
the time specified, they were to have
the benefit of the 100000.
Freedmen Never Adopted.
'@The Chickasaw freedmen never
were adopted. The tribe never has
claimed nor has 1t ever received any
part of the consideration. Whether
the Choctaw freedmen legally were
adopted always has been question.
Certain friendly Indians were set
tied on these lands under the pro-
visions Of the treaty. The right Of
Chickasaws and Choctaws to addi-
tional compensation for the land so
used has been established by the ac-
ton Of congress in its direct appro-
priation of money for the payment Of
the same to the tribes This money
was paid out per capita in 1893 and
is referred to as the leased district
payment. The lands for which COM
pensation now Is asked were COM
prised in the same area.
sThe Indians hold that they made
a lease and not a conveyance" says
Governor Johnston. 1.-TWO great courts
differed. The language of the treaty
was sufficiently uncertain to support
conflicting opinions of the courts"
