LANDS.
FOX
SAC AND
Agreement llescbeil and Nearly 400,000
Acre of Lund Open for frtllrmeiit.
Sap ami Fox Am'acy, IJ ''-. June a
Tho Sacs and Foxes havo come to an
agreement with the Indian Commission
and the articles will be put In formol
shape to-day, and as there Is no objec
tion from nny of thn trlbo or the Com
uilsslonerM, there is no doubt but that In
a few months thn tiovernmentwlll havo
3II.V000 acres of fertile soil ready for
whlto settlers.
The agreement was finished late Sat
urday evening, after a whole day of con
ference between tho Commissioners and
thn Council.
In tho morning Chief Keokuk an
nounced that tho Council was willing
that the Oovcrniuent should pay thn
'Indians 5401,700, provided they would
lie allowed o aelert, Und. vyho.ro they
should choose. The proposition of the
Commissioners thnt 94WV.000 nhould bo
paid It the Indians should taku their
allotments south of tho Dorr Fork and
400,000 If they wanted the whole reser
vation to pick from. It cm bo thus
seen that thn only material dllfnrencn
between the Commission and the Coun
cil was regarding tho location of tho
severalty lands.
Chief Keokuk In arguing the point
culled attention to the fact that thn
Council had made all thn concessions
thus far, and In justice tho Commis
sioners should make at least one. Tho
judgment of the Council, ho said, was
that If the Government wanted to civil
Ire the Indian as rapidly as poslble It
should offer them inducements to scat
ter out rather than go Into ono commu
nity to themselves.
"Here are men," said Iho chief with
pride pointing to the councillors, "they
aro not boys. They make you meet
ttoys at other places, tint these men in
front of you know the Government's
wishes and policy, and they want to
promote the effort of the Government to
teach the Indian to work and do like
white men. They think it would bo
tnst for the Indfans to lo near neigh
bors to white men."
This speech had the desired effect and
the Commission agreed to give NSS.OOO
and let the allotments bo Uken any
where.
The atw,000 acres of tand which the
Government has obtained for settle
ment Is already Ising made the subject
