Please allow me space for a lew
words about the delegates' brief
in your issue of the ISth inst.
The first proposition to which
they call attention is "That the
lands and moneys of the Cherokee
people are common property in
which every citizen has an equal
interest." We believe this prop-
osition is true. We have ever held
this view. It is only very recently
however that the Cherokees
adopted it. In all of the legal
documents and papers that I have
seen from the Cherokees since the
controversy was carried to the
courts they have always contended
that the Delawares did not have
an equal interest with the Chero-
kees but an interest as defined by
the Cherokee-Delaware treaty of
April S 1S67 viz: 157600 acres of
land. For proof of the above see
the communicition of the Chero-
kee delegation to the senate com-
mittee of Indian affairs in report
of committee of Indian affairs for
the year 1895 page 430 which is
as follows: "As has been seen the
Delawares purchased 157600 acree
of Cherokee lands lying east of
the 96 s. This was an absolute
and unconditional purchase and
in which the Cherokee nation has
no title or interest."
The next contention is tiiat the
Dolawarea gave up their tribal
government and became a compo-
nent part of the Cherokee tribe of
Indians with the additional rights
guaranteed to them in the agree-
ment of April Sth 1S67 by and be-
tween the Cherokee nation and the
Delaware tribe which gave the
original regist red Delawares on
the Delaware roll at the time they
were incorporated and merged
their identity into the Cherokee
tribe the right to have when the
land shall hereafter be allotcd not
less than 160 acres each of the tri-
bal lands.'' To this proposition
we also subscribe and that conten-
tion in my judgment settles the
whole matter in favor of the Dela-
wares. For if the Delawares are
entitled to the additional rights
Guaranteed them by the treaty of
April 8th 1S67 as the brief of the
delegation admits the controversy
is at an end as it is just what the
Delawares claim and ever have
claimed for the treaty expressly
states that in case of an allotment
of Cherokee lands each registered
Delaware shall receive 160 acres of
land. After quoting the treaty by
which provisions were made for
the locating friendly Indians in
Cherokee country which is not
germane to the subject they refer
to the decision of th- supreme
court in the case of Journe3'cake
vs. the Cherokee nation which is
as follows: "So far as the provis-
ions of the agreement for the pur-
chase of homes is concerned it
is perceived that no absolute
title to these homes was granted.
We may take notice of the fact
that the Cherokees in their long
occupation of this reservation had
generally secured homes for thun-
selves; that the laws of the Chero-
kee nation provided for the impro-
priation by the several Cherokees
of lands for personal occupation
and that this purchase by the Del a
wares was witn a view oi securing
to the individual Delaware the like
homes; that the lands thus pur-
chased and paid lor still remained
as part oftbe Cherokee reservation
And as a further consideration for
the payment of this sum fur the
purchase of homes the Delawares
were guaranteed not merety the
continued occuparcy thereof but
also that in case of a subsequent
allotment in severalty of the entire
body of lands among the members
of the Cherokee nation they should
receive an aggregate amount equal
to that which they hid purchased
and such a distribution as would
secure to them the homes upon
which thej' had settled together
with their improvemmts. So that
if when the allotment was made
there was for any reason not land
enough to secure each member of
the Cherokee nation 160 ncres the
Delawares were to have at least
that amount and the deficiency
would have to be borne by native
Cherokees pro rata. In other
words there was no purchase of a
distinct body of lands as in case of
the settlement of other tribes with
in the limits oftbe Cherokee reser-
vation." Why the Cherokee dele
gation introduced mis portion ol
the decision I am at a loss to un-
derstand. It appears to me to
make and clinch the point the
Delawares are contending far be-
yond question or controversy.
Bear in mind the decision says:
"And as a further consideration
for the payment of this sum for the
purchase of homes the Delawares
were guranteed not merely the
continued occupancy thereof but
also in case of a subsequent allot-
ment in severalty of the entire
body of lands among the members
oftbe Cherokee nation they should
or particulars. That just suits our
side of the controversy. If the
contracting parties used the word
in the sense above mentioned as
all the circumstances show they
did the Delaware view is sustain-
ed But the treaty itself is the
best of evidence as to the meaning
the parties attached to the word.
It reads: The Cherokees parties
of the first part for and in consid-
eration of certain payments and
the fulfillment of certain conditions
hereinafter mentioned agree to
sell to the Delawares. for occu-
pancy a quantity of land east of
the line ot the 96 s west longitude
in the aggregate equal to 160 acres
fir each individual of the Delaware
tribe who has been enrolled on a
certain register made Feb. IS
1S67 by the Delaware agent and
on file in the office of Indian affairs.
How much land did the Cherokees
sell the Delawares by that transac-
tion? Evidently as many acres as
160 multiplied by 9S5 the number
who removed to the Indian coun-
try which equals 157600 acres.
The word aggregate as used in the
treaty above quoted beyond ques-
tion or civil means all or the sura
total. We will now see how much
land the Cherokees agreed the reg-
istered Delawares should have in
the event of allotment. The treaty
read?: "In case the Cherokee
lands shall hereafter be alio ted
among tin- members of said nation
it is agreed that the aggregate
amount of land herein provided
for the Delawares (which means
ail of the land herein provided for
the Delawares) to include their
improvements according to legal
subdivisions when survei's are
made tnat is to say 160 acres for
each individual thall be guaran
teed to each Delaware incorporated
by these articles into the Cherokee
nation. That the Cherokees agreed
to allot to the registered Delawares
the same amount of land they
agreed to sell them is fully estab-
lished by the language of the co i-
tract. In speaking of the amount
to be sold the same terms are u?ed
as in speaking of the amount to he
allotted. The' agreed to sell
them an amount of land in the ng
gregate equal to 160 acres for eacli
individual on a specified roll.
They agreed in the event of allot-
ment to allot them an aggregate
amount of land equal to that which
they had purchased.
The opinion oftbe attornev Gen
eral is next introduced and is as
follows: A careful consideration
of this agreement in connection
with the treat' between the United
States and the Cherokee Indians
in the light of the discussions
found in the respective decisions
of the court of claims and the su-
preme court shows that several
propositions relative thereto must
be accepted beyond dispute.
Among these the following may be
mentioned: "That t u registered
Delawares who removed to the
Cherokee country became members
as individuals of the Cherokee
nation with the same rights as na-
tive citizens that they did not in-
dividually or collectively acquire
the title to anv specific tract of
land; that they did however as
individuals have an interest in all
of the lands of the Cherokee nation
in common with all other citizens
of the nation: that this interest or
right of property was the sa ne as
that of the Cherokee citizen with
the added guarantee that they
should in case of an allotment in
severalty receive not less than the
specified quantity of 160 acres to
include their improvements; and
that the children of these adopted
citizens are citizens of the Chero
kee nation on exactly the same
footing in every particular as citi-
zens of Cherokee blood." If I
understand the opinion of the at-
torney general above quoted it is
the Delaware idea to u dot viz.:
that the registered Delaware was
guaranteed 160 acres of land in the
event of allotment.
The opinion of the assistant at-
torney general is again resorted to
in which he argues that as the
lands are communal they are n-1
descendible aud consequently can-
not be heiredjWhich is in effect say
ing that owing to the tenure by
which the Cherokees hold their
land the Delawares cannot get
what they bought. It is a re-
markable proposition to say the
least. To assert that the Chero
kees and Delawares and the Uni-
ted States as guardians of both.
could not make an agreement rela-
tive to a specific amount of land
which in the event of certain con-
tingencies could be carried out is
to ignore all precedents and lay
aside common sense. But in re-
ality the advisorof the government
and the delegation are fighting a
man of straw of their own making.
They are talking about communal
land being descendible or the re
verse as though the Delawares
had ever set such a claim. Not
yet gentlemen. We are talking
about what the registered Dela-
wares bought and endeavoring to
show that the understanding was
to have that amount allotted to
them when the land should cease
to be communal endeavoring to
show (what in reality should re-
quire no argument to prove) that
parties legally capable of making
a contract could agree to the bar-
gain and sale of a specific quintity
of land and live tip to it. After
the land ceases to be communal
after each registered Delaware gets
what he bought 160 aires of land
it will be time enough to raise the
question of the descent of property.
Tho next point in the opinion
referred to is "that the conten
to mean sum mass or assemblage and the delegation introduce por
tions ot the decisions of the su-
preme court and the court of claims
iu effect declaring the Cherokee
nation a communal estate in which
all citizens are equal aiid argue as
a consequence that tho registered
Delaware claim is barred. They
fail to consider that those tribunals
were rendering decisions relative
to a time when the land and money
of the Cherokees were common
property when the issue was
whether the Delawares had an
equal interest or not the Cherokees
taking the negative view and
where reference was had only in-
cidentally to the question at issue
now but whenever they did allude
to it they found for the Delawares
As a matter of course the Dela-
wares were not entitled to the land
in controversy while the commun-
al character of the government ex-
isted. They have never claimed
they were. They have always
insisted that when the land was
individualized that they were to
have amount they bought but not
till then.
It may be proper to state a few
ofthe more important reasons why
the clause in the treaty giving the
registered Delawares 160 acres of
land when the land should be
allotted was made a onspicuou-i
part ol the agreement. A treaty
had been made between the Chero-
kees and the United States which
provided for the locating of friend-
ly Indians on the lands of the
Cherokees It was not known how
many would be brought within our
borders whether there would be
160 acres for each citizen or not in
the final division. Then the
Cherokees had aright to admit to
citizenship whom they pleased
and every one thus admitted di-
minished the amount per head of
the public domain and of the it -vested
fund. The Cherokees and
Delawares were then as now op-
posed to the individualization of
land they preferred to live where
land and money was com-
munal. But the former experience
of both taught them that the com-
munal character of their govern-
ment at farthest was to be of
short duration that the onward
march of Anglo Saxon ideas and
customs would soon ciipplam land
ownership in common with land
ownership in individuals. Ac da-
ted by these and other ideas of a
similar character they agreed to
live together under the government
of their fathers under a communal
government as long as the logic of
events would allow and then make
such a division as justice to both
pariies under all the circumstances
seemed to require. Some of the
laclors tor determining tl i- were
unknown and at tha. lime unknow-
able. At the time of allottment
there might be 500 acres per head
or m'ght be only one hundred i

What is the meaning of the purchase and a'so to an allotment in
phrase aggregate amount equal to
that which they had purchased?
Does it not mean the whole amount
or the sum total which they had
purchased? I am aware that the
word aggregate like most other
words has more than one meaning
and may properly be used in differ-
ent senses. But I do not believe the
word could be legitimately used to
convey the idea that only as many
of the registered Delawares as
were living at the time of allot-
ment should receive 160 acre3 of
land. Webster defines aggregate
the remaining portion of the lands
cannot be sustained." I do not
think that point can be sustained.
I believe when the registered Dela-
ware gets the 160 acres of land he
bought he gets all he is entitled to.
I am aware that Mr.Adams and Mr.
Bullett have set up that claim and
that it is supported by some reput-
able witnesses. Tho Cherokees and
Delawares may have had a verbal
agreement to that eflect but they
certainly never put it in the agreement.
