Mrs. Susan Saunders, a Cherokee and
rcsiaent < t Vinita, Indian territory has
been 111 Washington ior several weeks
looking after matters pertaining to the
tribe oi which she is a member. Mrs.
Saunders, while -oinewliat erratic, has
taken it upon herself to correct many
oi the abuses which have been inflicted
upon the Cherokee nation by the feder-
al government, and her story of the
imposition by the federal government
upon the Cherokee nation t.- an itiier-
I est ing one.
i In 18^5 the government entered into
a treaty with the Cherokee nation,
j whereby that tribe agreed to surrend-
' cr their lands in l'cnnesscc, Alabama , .
tiie 10 Washington, reaching here two
weeks ago. to discover that thc delega-
tion had done absolutely nothing of
practical value. She is here to insist
that the treaty of iS.?5 be followed to
the litter in tiir allotment of lands, and
that none save those who arc citizens
til the nation he allowed to participate
in thc benefits resulting therefrom. She
has already disposed of thc claims of
colored pet ons in a way that puts thc
matter beyond controversy.
An old law of the tribe provides that
any Cherokee who marries a negro
shall forfeit his property and citizensbi
rights within the nation, and thai ne-
groes are not entitle 1 to any of the
money due the tribe from the govern-
ment The Indian office, she states,

tn; mi objection to the recognition of
tin claims by the Dawes commis ion,

charaeterl7.es this folly properly when
it says: "There arc parents who. not
content with the studies which their
daughters have to grapple with at
school, load them down with a few
special studies in the finer arts. I have
in mind now several young girls be-
tween the precarious ages of 12 and
IT, who. after they return, from
school, have an extra dose of painting
music or languages. 'Rut my daughter
must know something of these things,'
is the protest of the fond mother. 'She
must be able to hold her own with
other girls of her set.' Of course, the
girl at this tender age, with such a
mental load, soon goes to pieces. She
becomes anaemic, listless and nervous.
and then the mother wonders why! To
ottild her up everything under the sun
is tried except a lessening of mental
work and the unnatural strain upon
the nervous system. The girl develops

members 01 this tribe expressed a de-
sire to remain behind, all of which was
grr.ntcd under the terms of the treaty,
ion condition that they surrender their
Icitiicnship in thc Cherokee tribe, and
' became citizens of the United States,
| taking their lands in the states above
j mentioned in part payment of the mon-
I cy due the tribe for the area they rc-
1 linquished.
1 Those who remained after the tribe
left for the territory were, for the most
: part, half breeds and quarter breeds,
■and very soon lost all trace and recol-
lection of their Indian descent. \\ itliin
the past year, however, it has been
i proposed to wipe out tribal organiza-
tions among the Indians; to allot them
lands, and to make them citizens oi thc
( United States, and the few tribes that
i expressed a willingness to agree to
I whatever the government desired in
I the matter.
| This is now no longer the case. As
I soon as this measure was proposed, a
i vast number of people, both white and
colored, most of them living in Geor-
I gia. Tennessee and Alabam 1. came tor-
ward, and. 011 oath declared that t'tcy
wt rc of Cheroke e descent, claiming re-
1 latienship with divers and sundry per
j sons and families whose names appear
1 on the Cherokee rolls of 18^5. One
I lawyer, who is a resident of this cit>
has 500 such clients throughout the
steles above mentioned. Their object
j in so doing is. of course, to share in
the allotment of land embodied in thc
Cherokee reservation whenever it is
made.
Now the worst feature of this phase
of the allotmnt question is, in the eyes
! of the thrifty and prosperous Cherokee
i farmers, that the Dawes commission
j has shown a willingness to recognize
1 the claims of such persons, and, what
'is still worse, claims presented by nc-
I grocs, who were at one time the prop-
erly of Cherokee masters. Last sum
mer the Cherokces sent a delegation
to this city to enter a protest against
such action on the part of the Dawes
commission, but this delegation railed
to accomplish much.
It was then that Mrs. Saunders, a
descendant of the famous Corntass"l
family, determined that her tribe should
not be driven to thc wall, hitched up
her btigy one morning, and in three
months' time drove all over the Cher
okce nation, securing thc signatures of
8. 0 land holding Indians of the better
class to petition, protesting against the
recognition of the pretenders aforesaid
by thc Dawes commission, and settin g
fotth in clear terms that unless such
claims were ignored the CliTokejs
were not willing to accept allotment.

T>nnrison of the number of
f plants known to the vari-
. iad men. who have lived dur-
past 2,000 years, and whose
ire more or less familiar to us.
says Prof. F. H. Knowlton in
the Plant World, how marvelously
our knowledge of plants has been in-
Teased. Thus Hippocrates, called the
"Father of Medicine," who lived be-
tween 500-400 B. C., knew only 234
species or kinds of plants. Theoph-
rastus, 371-225 0. C., who was perhaps
Ihe first real botanist whose name has
been handed down to us. described
about 500 species of plants which ho
divided into trees, herbs and shrubs.
By Dloscorides ,77 A. P.) th number
was raised to TOO species, and by Plinv
(23-75 A. to R00 species. During
the ensuing 1.500 years an'i more, com
paratively little work vas nccora
pllshed Ray, who wrote between
IG&5 and 1704, enumerated and de-
scribed IS,525 pp. ties of plant?. The ^
number of plants known to Linnaeus .a
