first acts of . Senator Boll upon tho
assembling of council will bo tho
Introduction of a measuro provid-
ing for a commission to muct thu
United States' commission which
desires to negotiate for tho Chcro-
kco strip.
The first attempt to fill tho
Chcrokco commission vacancy by
tho appointment of n gentleman
named Halsoy failed; ho would
not accopt tho place. There
nro plenty of applicants but tho
president has sot tho standard too
high for most of them.
The U. S. commissioners who
aro charged with the work of ne-
gotiating lor Indian lands wcro at
Sao and Fox last week. Tho In-
dians heard them through in si-
lenco but evinced no disposition
whatovor to dispose of any of their
territory. In vain the aluring
proposition wis hold out that
enough land could well bo spared
to bring $500000 which with their
prcsont fund would produce an an-
nuity of $100 per capita. The Sacs
and Foxes had as good a thing as
they wanted and would not swap.
DON'T YOU BELIEVE IT ALL.
In a two column communication
in last week's Indian Journal ap-
the following paragraph:
It is well o know whence comes
this domand for a chnngOEo radic-
al and complete. Guy backed by
tho intermarried whites of that na-
tion which class tho last legisla-
ture has declared disfranchised
or ratherhas determined their po-
litical position in tho nation; Por-
ter upheld by tho negroes of tho
Creek nation and hissed on by in-
terested politicians of the adjoin-
ing states and Henderson encour-
aged by the intermarried whites of
tho nation as woll as tho negro citi-
zens and sustained by railroad
capital form tho trio who seem to
be therccognired leaders.andthero
Moms to bo some reasonable
grounds for tho apprehending their
ultimate success in accomplishing
allotment after all that has been
Baid against it by thoso most intor-
estcd tho real ownors of tho soil
viz. tho Indians.
Wo aro not championing Mr.
Henderson's cause nor fighting
his battleB butsjesi uur esteemed
cotemporary at Eufaula may be
still further imposed upon we will
givo him a "pointer." Mr. Hen-
derson has not been "sustained by
railroad capital" nor was ho dur-
ing the campaign; in fact there
wasn't any financial sustenance in
tho gentleman's canvass. Don't
believe all you hear or all your
correspondent has to say; his
statement may bo exaggerated in
moro cases than that of Mr. Hen-
derson. ON A BLUFF.
Below will be found an editorial
from last Monday's Globe-Democrat
under tho . caption "The
Cherokee Outlet" As tho article
intimates tko government will
doubtless in tho ond secure the
Chcrokeo strip for while settle-
ment but it will not got it on a
"bluff" and that 1b what tho arti-
clo in question strongly savors of :
Tho latest reports indicato that
tho Chcrokeo commission is not
progressing very fast in the impor-
tant work of preparing tho way for
the opening of tho Chcrokeo strip
to whito settlement. It is evident
that tho Indians are determined
not to part with their legal titlo
to the tract in question on any
reasonable terms. They seem to
think that by stubbornly refusing
to accept what is offered thoy can
compel t-ho government to pay
thorn their own prico; but thoy will
discover that such a result is out
of tho question. It is by no means
certain that thoy havo tiny definite
right of ownership. Their claim is
ntbtfstn very doubtful one nnd
uie prouauuity is mat n nut to a
strict legal test it will bo declared
in valid. Tho government has con-
fidcrntcly and generously sought
to avoid nucli a proceeding und
tu fuouro nn nmicablo adjustment
ui me matter in tno interest or all
concerned; but if these friendly
overtures ore to la treated with
lofty dlsdnhiMlion it will become
nooewnry to roBort to measures of
a mow positive npd nibitrary char
hUt. It is useless for the Clioro
getjg o Mjpposo mat limy can prot
vtpl tho opening of tho lntuls.
T4m lino lin come wIica that
Jnrjte tsHil kHU ideco of territory
iuut Iw ftturcudvrod to thu use of
Davis Hill
civijlsatlon if not wjlllngly lh6n
otherwise
It is asserted that tho Indian ti-
tlo in tills enso it) tho samo ns that
by which tho various tribes bold
Ihoir p6rmanont reservations; but
such is not tho fact. By a treaty
effected in 1828 tho Cborokoos
woro given 7000000 acres of land
ns a permanent homo tho reser-
vation which they now occupy
and which nobody proposes to
tako from them. At tho samo
time they were guaranteed a por-
PQltial outlot wost for hunting and
trading purposes. This gunrnntoo
gavo only a right of way. and not
a titlo to tho soil. Nothing moro
hn& over been granted by any trea-
ty or act of congress. In 1800.
however tho Chcrokccs consented
to tho settlement of friendly In.
dinna Upon tho lands embraced in
said outlot and received $348000
as a consideration. It has been
held by tho courts that this was
equivalent to a salo of all their in-
terests in tho uropcrly. Judge
Brewer said in a decision rendered
in 1887 "Whothcr the Chcrokces
held eaid outlot by titlo in foe
simple or whether it was tho com
mon muion titlo or merely a
road to tho hunting-grounds thoy
havo parted with thoir title what
ever it was." Under such circum-
stances it is not at nil likely Dial
tno covcmmoi.t will nesitato to
tako possession of tho lands nnd
to disposo of them to sottlcrs un-
der the general laws governing tho
palo of tho publio domain. The
Chcrokccs cannot afford to invito
'a situation of that sort. It would
almost certainly deprive them of
any rccomponpo whatever whero-
as they now havo n chanco to so-
euro a very liberal amount it
they caro to risk it thoy nro at
liberty to do so of courso; but it
would manifestly bo wiser for
them to tako what is offered and
srnciously yield a claim which
rests upon sucn a sienucr uasis oi
law and justice.
THE SECRETARY WILL TAK
A HAND.
A Washington special to tho
Globe-Democrat dated October
23 says:
1 no secretary ot tno interior is
preparing a lettor to tho Chcrokeo
authorities upon tho subject of
tho lcaso of tho Cherokee strip
which it in suspected .will contain
some rather pertinent and valua-
ble suggestions. Tho secretary
refuses to disclose in odvanco just
what it will be but it is under-
stood that his reasoning in the
matter is based upon an opinion
just received from tho attorney
general ot the department mere
is little doubt that the department
will lake a urm stanu against the
present lease system and that tho
forthcoming letter together with
tho opinion f will tend to bring
matters to a crisis so far as the
cattlemen of tho Chcrokco strip
aro concerned. The precedents
thus far established opposo tho
lease of tho Chcrokco strip and
there is every reason to believe
that the present administration is
net disposed to see the cattlemen
nolo possession ot tno surplus In-
dian lands in tho exclusion of the
settlers. The hist administration
put the cattlemen out of Oklahoma i
and the Cheyenne and Arapahoe
reservations ana it declared their
occupancy of tho Chcrokco strip
unlawful but toon no measures
looking to their exclusion. A
similar opinion already lias been
incidentally rendored by tho pres-
ent administration but no delinito
or determined action has been ta-
ken and the cattlemen still re-
main in possession. This fact
has probably been found embar-
rassing to the Cherokee commis-
sion now in the territory endeav-
oring to negotiate for thoso lands
and it is surmised that the forth
coming letter and opinion is calcu-
lated to aid tho commission in
bringing tho matter to n speedy
settlement.
The commission has at present
only two member owing to tho
recent tlcath ol den. ilartranu.
but tho vacancy will bo filled in a
few days. Thcro are several can-
didates under cons deration but
no determination will likely be
reached beforo Saturday.
THE CHEROKEE STRIP.
Following is an interview atrl-
buted to Ex-Chief Bushyhead up-
on what occasion wo do not know:
"Unquestionably tho outlet will
bo opened to settlement. Con-
gress will sec to that. It can bo
opened in either of thrco ways.
Article 19 of tho Cherokee treaty
of 1800 provides that friendly In-
dians may be settled on the strip
by tho United Stato3 on terms to
bo agreed upon by the friendly
tribe and tho Cherokee and in
case of their nonagrcemout the
prico per aero to bo fixed by the
president. Under that treaty fivo
tribes have been settled tho presi-
dent fixing tho price por acio at
forty-seven and forty-nino hun-
dredths cents. East of Oklahoma
aro five tribos occupying about ono
million acros purchased from the
Crooks and Scminoles last winter.
All these tribes can be moved up-
on the outlet und settled thereon
fur 47i cent por aero. Besides as
tho government has been having
much troublo about opening Bomo
reservations in Kansas. New Mexi-
co Colorado nnd other western
territories it would bo easy to
tuko tho Indians from their reser-
vations and locate them upon the
outlet. This would throw opon to
settlement twelve million acres in
tho southwestern portion of tho
Indian Territory eight million
acres cast of Oklahoma and other
lands in tho territories. The coU
of tho outlet on this basis would
bo but $3O0QCOO. Should tho
government docida to pay $1.25
por aero for tho strip tno Chey-
ennes nnd Arapahocs would ex-
pect to bo paid for their four mil-
lion ncres. Tho oiler of llio gov-
ernment of $1 25 per aero for the
outlet aggregates over $3000000
which tho Indians can rccuiyfi and
divide per eunilu or lenvo with the
govurnmont mid reeuivo fivo pur
cunt intciust yearly amounting to
$400000 wlienms they now fit-

A CENSUS OT THIS TERRITORY.
Tho superintendent of the con-
bus had a conforenco with tho In-
dian commissioner last Monday
says a press dispatch tho subject
undor consideration being tho best
method of taking tho census
among tho Indians and also what
it shall embrace It has been do-
cidod to pay particular attention
to tho census in tho Indian Terri-
tory in order to nscortain what
classes of residents aro thcro tho
number in each class their occupa-
tion and other facts in relation to
them such as nro usually embrac-
ed in a complcto dccotinial enu-
meration. Tho recent report of
Agout Leo Bennett of tho union
agency which wan publishod in
tho Globe-Democrat of Octobor 4
has drawn tho nttcntion of tho de-
partment lo tho necessity for somo
action in regard to "intruders" in
tho Indian Territory. It is thoro-
foro with a viow to securing somo
basis for action that especial pains
will be taken with tho census of
tho inhabitants of tho Indian Ter-
ritory. Tho report of Agont Bon-
nclt states that within tho bounda-
ries of tho fivo nations thoro is n
total population of 177200 of
which 45000 aro whito farm labor-
borors and mechanics nnd their
fnmilies under permit; 25000 nro
licensed traders government
employes railroad and mino em-
ployes and their familios; 35000
are interlopers nnd criminnls nnd
their families principally refugees
from tho surrounding states; 4000
nro claimants to Indian citizenship;
and 3000 aro sojourners prospect
ors and visitors. It will be ob-
served from Mr. Bennott's figuros
that about one-fifth of the popula-
tion is composed of "interlopers
and criminals and their families"
and that not less than ono -fourth
of tho inhabitants of tho fivo na-
tions nro such persons as really
havo no businoss or right to bo
thcro nnd who anight nil be
classed ns "intruders." Tho cen-
sus bureau proposes to get tho
facts concerning the population of
tho territory nnd it is likely that
a number of special agents will bo
detailed to aid tho census enumera-
tors when tho proper timo comes.
The matter was informally con-
sidered to-dny by Supt. Porter and
Commissioner Morgan but n plan
will be eventually adopted. It H
not improbablo that tho political
status of tho Indian Territory will
bo somewhat changed by tho time
tho census enumeration begins
and that tho whito population of
that region outside of tho five .na-
tions will bo materially increased
by homestead settlement; but it is
proposed that "intruders" shall
get out of the fivo nations and keep
nit tho oilier Indian lands in the
territory. A comploto census will
be taken and then whatever addi-
tional action is doomed necessary
and advisable will be accom
plished.
THE WHITE CITIZENS.
At a mooting of tho white adopt
ed citizens held at this placo Oct.
28th 18S9 about thirty persons
wero present. V. L. Benton was
elected chairman and Jess W. El-
liot secretary. Dr. M. Frazeo
ond Dr. J. T. Davis spent somo
timo in discussing the object of the
meeting. After the argument
closed a motion was mado by Dr.
Frazee and tho samo carried that
a committee of three be appointed
to call a general meeting of all tho
adopted citizens at such time and
placo as the said committee may
designate. Tho following named
persons woro appointed as such
committee: Dr. J. T. Davis
Huston Smith and Thomas Howie.
It was then agreed by tho commit-
tee that thoy meot at Vinita Nov.
2nd to maLo arrangements about
calling the meeting.
Meeting then adjourned.

THE OHUKOH IN THE CENSUS.
Below will bo found a circular
letter from Robert P. Porter su-
perintendent of census which
should enlist lively interest among
tho clorgy of this as all other sec
tions of tho country and wo trust
will do so:
Editoii ov The Chieftain
Dkau Sm: Having determined to
include church statistics in tho
special inquiries to bo mado for
the eleventh census I wish to an-
nounce to you and through you lo
your readers my desire and purpose
to obtain tho fullest and most accu-
rate results possible in this special
department. I need not enlarge
upon the value of such results to
any who nro in any wise intor-
oslod in church work mid progress
nnd wish to know tho numerical
strength of tho various religious
denominations of tho United
States.
Tho inquiry w.ill bo broad enough
in scopo to embrace every religious
body of whatever uamu or crcod
however few or many its churches
and members and it will be con-
ducted with the utmost fairness
and impartiality. The informa-
tion sought will bo nrrangod under
fivo bends: (I) Organizations or
societies; (.2) Church edifices (3)
Seating capacity; (i) Value of
church property; (fi) Communr-
oanlB. 'i'hW Is us much in my
judgment ns it will bo wiso to un-
dertake in this directum of tho
oluvt'iith census.
In order to prosecute this plan
Btitces3fulland to iniiko tho re-
Milts so thorough and accurate 1
that they i-nimot be impt ached
Provisions Hardware giasware
the government will havo to count
largely on tho prompt and gener-
ous co-operation of thoso in oach
denomination who aro in a position
to furnish tho information desired.
This information cannot bo gath-
ered by tho enumerators. Thoy
nro nlready fully burdenod; nnd
tho appropriations available for
tho census will not admit of tho
appointment of special onumtra.
tors for this work. It is nocessary
therefore to make church statis-
tics n special inquiry nnd they
must bo gathered chiefly by sched-
ules placed in tho hands of somo
competent porson in cnoh of tho
minor cccloslaitical subdivisions
of tho various churches.
Tho conduct of this spocial in-
quiry has boon committed to a
gcntloman whoso qtialificationj
for tho work will I am suro bo
iiiBtnntly recognized. II. K. Car-
roll LL. D. editor of "Tho Indo-
pendent" of Now York has con-
sented to assumo tho duties of tho
position. Dr. Carroll is now on-
gagod in preparing plans for such
a 'division of tho torritory of each
denomination ar will mako it com-
paratively easy for thoso to whom
hisMnquirics will bo addrcssod to
givo a prompt and faithful re-
sponse I ask for him and I am
suro you will heartily second mo
such cheerful and genorous assist-
anco as ho may require from
officers of tho denomination you
represent.
Very respectfully
