"Tho time iB coming when the
white man can go into the Indian
Territory and purchase land upon
which to build a home" said In-
spector Wright who represents
the Interior department in ita
dealing with tho Ave civilized
tribes this evmi' g.
"At present there are only two
small towns in which land can bo
purchased from the Indians.
These lands can only bo Bold in
town site lots. It Ib impossible to
purchase farm land from '10 In-
dians. Thero is a great deal of
business being done in the Indian
Territory by while persons but
the land upon whiph their build-
ings are located is owned hy tho
IndianB to whom the merchant
pay rent.
"An agreement has been reached
however that will make it possi-
ble for the white men to purchase
land. After all the land has been
appraised by the DaweB commis-
sion it will ho allotted to the In
dians each one getting his share
Tillo will then pass lo the Indians
aB individuals. Tbey will be able
to sell a portion of the land out-
right and the purchaser will re-
ceive a clear title to the property.
A certain amount hpwevpr must
bo retained by each Indian as a
homestead. The rest of tho land
ho can disposo of to whomever be
pleaseB
"It will take a long while for
this land to be appraised and the
allotments made but eventually
the whlto men wi)l be allowed to
own land in the territory. In tbic
event the land will bo subject to
tax. As it is now the merchants
in small towns have a municipal
ity. They lax themselves pay a
porbonnl tax but cannot tax the
land owned by the ndiaus. When
the land has been allotted it will
be subject to taxation.
