thrown into the ranks of the opponents of
the Oklahoma liil. could not have created
greater coiiktornatioti than the invssajre of
- the President sent ta both houses of Con-Ijre-s
yisterduy afternoon announcing the
cession of the Oklahoma and other lands
to the United Slates. It was seen at once
that by this cession every possible argu
ment against the ci fat ion or the Territory
cf Oklahoma would fall to the ground.
It will Ikj observed that the agree
ment with the Creek, which was
consummated at the Inteiior Deport
ment January 1, won ntu-r the
successful coudusion of General Wearer's
pailntmentnry fctruggle, U an nbsolute
cession of the land, and that the agree
ment was prompt y i utitied Uy the Creek
Council, nnd returned to the President,
vl.olou no tim in laving it before Con
gress. Tlie friends of 0lahojna are over
w helmed with joy at the nimpicious result
of the negotiations. The mo-sage and
ngre-ment will be referred to the Indian
Committee of the House and Senate and
there is no douLt but thut it will be rati
fied. The following is tho full text of the
IV-sident's message:
2o tit Cntijrctt:

Tenltory, ceded hy them respectively to the
V lilted States by the several treaties of August
11. 1-KA March 21. Ibfio. and July 19, lvj." This
section also contains an appropriation in
furtherance of Its purpose, and requires that
the action of the President thcriMind-r should
tie reported to Congress. The unas-ineJ lands
thus referred to should be construed to be
those which have not tteen transferred by the
Tinted Suites in pursuance of the treaties
mentioned in the section quoted.
The treat with the Creeks is dated July 14
lsi,c. it was confirmed by the Senate resolution
passed July 1U, 1-W, and was proclaimed August
ll.lf.fi. (11 Stats., TK1). Tho third ar icle of
the treatv makes a cessiou of lands in the fol

of the United States to Incite other Indians

Thus by three executive order the following

act of May 13. li (17 statutes ir.9) bv which

tract, though but v cry few Indians have selected

f rov isions of the law. The enure quantity of

This shows the Quxutitr of lands uuassigaed
but to -ome extent appropriated to Indian
Uses, by the Government amounting to
1 270M)3!.
Fv" he lands which are not only unassigned
"but are nnoccupicd. and which have been in no
wayappropnated.it appears clcarlv jnt and
right that a price of at least li.vi should be al
lowed to the Creeks. They held more than the
ordinarj Indian title, for they had a patent in
fee from the Government. he tHagcs of Kan
as were allowed f l-iV per acre ujK?n giving up
their reservation, and this lantl of the Creeks is
rej-orted by those familiar with it to lie equal
to any "land in the country. Without
regard to the proent enhanced value of
tmjland. and if reference be only had to
"tSMtonditlons when the cosion was made no
1sV V'ic" ought to be paid for it than the
ordinary Government pnee. Therefore, in this
provisional tgrecment which has been made
with the Creeks the pnee of tl.23 has been set
tled upon for such land wita the deduction of
the thiry cents per which has already
tjeenpaid by our Government therefor. Ato
the remainder of the unassigned lands in view
of the fact that some use has been made of
them of the general character indicated by
the treaty of 1 SOfi, and because some portion of
fcexs should be aUeiMd to Indians safer
tbe Generai Allotment aet and to cover tfce ex
penses of surveys aaa adjustments, a diminlsa
ment of ) cents per acre has been ccede4te
Therc is no diRerenee in the character of the
lands, thus combining the unassigned and en
tirely unappropriated land being the Oklahoma
country containing I,3i7i4 TO acres at V, sentn
per acre and the remainder which has been up
propnatedto thy extent above stated being
l,277.0G0.in acres at TS cents per acre the total
price stipulated in the agreement has been
reached j,2sijc7.
But as it was desirable that the Indian title
should be beyond question extinguished to all
parts nf the lands ceded by the Creeks in 1M,
with their full consent and understanding the
agreement of cession has been made to em
brace a complete surrender of z.11 claim
to the western half of their domain, including
the assigned and the unassigned lands for the
price named. So the agrtement takes the form
In the first article of such a cession, and In the
second anicle U stipulated the price in gross ot
all the Ian 's and interests ceded with no de
tailed reference to the manner of the ascertain
ment, Theovertt-res which led to this agreement
were made by representatives of the Creek
Natioii who came here for that purpose. They
were intelligent and evidently loyal to the
interests of their people. The terms of tho
aretment were fully discussed, and concessions
were made by Iioth parties It was promptly
confirmed by the National Council or the
Creek Indians, and its complete consummation
only awaits the approval of the Congress of the
United States. 1 am convinced that such rati
ilcatfon will be of decided benellt to the Got
crnment, and that the agreement is tntirtrlj
free from any suspicion of unfairness or injus
tice toward the Indians.
I desire to call e-p-cial attention to the fact
that to become effective the agreement must

work aecompli.hed. The worms are

1 ttnttally swallowing the earth and de-
positing it the surface, and working

I young readers to estimate the quantity

I single acre in a year, I fear they would
not place the amount as high a- Mr.
Darwin, who states that the vegetable
I mold, thus transported, in some places
I amounts to ten tons an acre. Think
! of it! If vour ten-acre farm is in one
of these farming localities, these silent
workers, say to the number of a mill
ion, have plowed up about one hun
dred tons; of earth for you, giving you a
"fine top-dressing.
The worms not only carry all this
material to the surface, but they drug
vast quantities of leaves and other
matter down, that serve to enrich the
soil nnd render it capable of producing
larger crops. The earth-worms ot
Australia attian a large size, some
times several feet In lentil, and have
been seen climbing trees. Some casts
found in India are a foot in length.
The worm- evidently live in complete
darkness; hut it is known that at
certain times and under certain con
ditions they are luminous, so that a
