Former Indian Uprising.
Sooth McAleeter I T.' Jan 26
It has been so long since there
has been au Indian uprising iu
this country that people bad al-
most forgotten that such a thing
was in bounds of reason. The
Jones-Locke war in the Choctaw
Na'ton some twelve years ago was
the last unpleasantness to disturb
the nsual pear able aarenity iu
this nation and few yeara be-
fore that the Creek fullbloods
uudertood to do just w. .at the
Gainesville County Choctaws are
now doing rebelled against the
regnlarly elected Chief who was
J M IVrryman if Eufaula and
elected Esperhechar Chief aud
brought on what is known as the
Ksparhecbar wur which how
ever was brief and compamtively
bloodless though 'he United
States authorities had .o be in-
voked to quell both rebellions-
Old Spi never go over his defeat
ou that memorable occasion until
after be was vindicated by being
elected ChieT three yeara ago
when he made a good official and
towards the last he advised his
people to accept the inevitable
ad take their allotments and he
iet the example himself by visit-
ing tbe land offie at Muskogee
and filing on aeveral quarter
sections of the best laud in tbe
Deep Fork Valley. This old man
bad always enter. ai-ed a bitter
hatred of the whites and his
action in this respect was quite a
surprise.
Tbe present opriaiug seems to
have a new leader oue of tbe
Ueijo crowd being its inspirator.
Both the leader sad the men are
Ignorant of the power they have
oeted and of course will come
very promptly to grief. The siin-
ultaueoas outbreak of the Gaines
County Choctaws would seem to
prove that there exists sn under
standing if not a collusion be-
sen the diss-tisfled menbers
of both tribes and it is highly
probable that the Cherokee Ke-
tcowahs are in the deal. Ihere
are enoagh of the dissatisfied
Indians iu each of the tribes to
make a good deal of trouble
So far as known none of the
Choctaws have committed any
sets of violence. D Bell whom
the; have put op for their chief
is a quiet unobtrusive Indian
quite well kuown and generally
liked here aud the news thai he
was at tbe head of the movement
to overthrow the Dukes govern-
ment was received with incredu-
lity. Tbe Creeks however have
given evidence of what they in-
tend to do aud the action of tbe
marshal and other authorities
show that tbey consider the situa-
tion to be a very serious one.
'When Capt Jack Klha was snt
by the Indian agent last summer
to talk to tbe 8aake Creek baud
be reported that there were rest
less characters from all of the
trbes present and that they were
hatcbiug up some sort of devil-
ment. Tbey listened to him re-
spectfully but did not take him
into their confidence.
