Washington, D. C.—March 25.
I —The McGuire bill removing re v
strictions on all but a forty acre
I homestead of the sixteen hun-
] dred Indians under the jurisdic-
tion of, the Quapaw agency in
Ottowa county in the extreme
I northeastern portion of Oklaho-
ma has passed the house. The
bill removes restrictions on about
130.000 acres of land and will add
at lea9t a million and a half dol-
lars to the taxable valuation of
the eastern part of the state of
Ul^ahoma.
Old Oklahoma is interested in j £
the removal of restrictions in
what was formerly the Indian
| territory as the land which can
i not now be taxed would be placed
! on the tax* rolls thus tending tojil
equalize the burden of taxation
between the two portions of the 1
st te. The Quapaw bill is the
first step in this diraction taken (
by either house at this session.
The Five Tribes restriction bill
also introduced by McGuire in |
house, and Clapp in the senate,
will soon emerge from the com-
mitter. McGuire predicts the
house will report the bill this
