By ELMO SCOTT WATSON A NEW chapter is about t© bewrltten In our Indian history--not in ai terms of armed warfare, as it was in the old days, but In terms of court litigation, the results of I which may be more far-reaching than were those of any Indian war ever fought on this continent. For the Poncas, the Iroquois, the Cherokees and the Sioux are going into the white man's courts to seek restitution for haying been "illegally deprived" of their ancestral lands. Up until recent times Indians could not sue the United States except by permission obtained through a special act of congress. Legislation passed during the last four years, however, has removed this barrier. Now the red man is to have his day In court--the United States Court of Claims. In many respects the case of the Poncas Is the most interesting of them all. It recalls another legal battle in which this tribe figured nearly a half century ago, at a time when the red man was more accustomed to attempt to right his wrongs with the hutchet and the scalping knife than with writs, appeals and court orders. In 1877 the government decided to remove the Poncas from their homes in Nebraska to Indian Territory because the reservation confirmed to theni by treaty had been included in land granted to the Sioux. Despite the protests of Standing Bear, a1 leading chief, he and nine others were taken south to select a reservation and when they declined to do this, their request to be returned to Nebraska was refused. So with only a blanket apiece and a few dollars in" their possession they started hack on foot. It took them 40 days to cover the 500 miles and when they arrived they fonlfd that officials of the Indian department hadjfffiled upon the military for aid In removing their tribesmen. So the Pon* cas, losing hope, abandoned their homes and went to Indian Territory. The change of climate brought great suffering; within a year^t third of tlfe tribe had died--among them a son of Chief Standing Bear-- and the survivors were ill or disabled. Standing Bear decided that his son must be burled in the land of his fathers. In dettunce of orders from the government, he, accompanied by a few followers, set out for Nebraska In January, 1879, bearing the bones of his son for burial In the North. In March, the party, dressed in rags and almost starving, arrived at the Omaha Indian reservation, where they asked the Omahas for the loan of seed and land. But when they were about to put in a crop, soldiers appeared with orders to return them to Indian Territory. Again they were started back to the hated reservation in the South. While camped near Omaha, the chief was interviewed by T. H. Tibbies, a correspondent for an Omaha newspaper. His story of the wrongs of the Poncas resulted in two Omaha lawyers offering their services to the Indians and suing out a writ of habeas corpus in their behalf. The government denied the right of tht> prisoners to such a writ but in April Judge Dundy ruled that "an Indian is a person within the meaning of the law," and ordered the Poncas released. The next winter Standing Bear, accompanied by Tibbies and Susette La Flesche, an educated woman of the Omaha tribe, as interpreters, went on a tour of the East to tell the story of his people. He attracted national attention and sympathy. The President and other government officials were flooded with protests and in 1880 the senate pointed a committee to investigate the case, a result the Poncas, who chose to remain in Indian Territory, were given better lands, those who lmd lost property were pjiid for it and Standing Besr was granted a home near the village site of his ancestors, where he remained* until the day of his death In 190S. Now the Oklahoma Poncas are, suing the government for approximately $11,000,000. the value of the land in Nehrfttika and South Dakota which they maintain was taken from them forcibly at the time of their removal to Indian Territory. They affirm further that there was no agreement with them when late in the '80s President Benjamin Harrison declared their title to that land extinguished. The territory in question Includes some 18 townships, covering five or six counties in Nebraska, and extending as far as the Black Hills. The Sioux are asking even more from Uncle Ram. They are bringing action for an aggregate of $219,000,000, which, with interest accrued, brings the total up to the staggering sum of three-quarters of a billiqn of dollars, making it probably the largest amount ever asked in any suit ever filed THE BEST RECOMMENDATION -- FOR -- Bare-to-Hair Is the number who are trying to imitate it.

The biggest item In the bill Is for $lo0,000,000 In payment for the Black Hills and surrounding territory taken froiy them by armed force, they assert, in 1874 and 187f». They are demanding payment at the rate of only $100 an acre for the gold-bearing lands of tits region, although included in it is the fknious lloniestake mine which has produced hundreds of millions of dollars in gold. They also set « price of $50 an acre on the timbered areas, now included in the federal forest reserve. They say, and historians bear them out, that the government shamelessly violated the treaiies of 1850 and 18(58 and when their power was broken In the W'ar of 1876- 77, they were derived of their horses and other property "for which they have never been repaid. The Iroquois are preparing to come Into court' with an older claim and one. which may become even greatef than t>hat of the Sioux and Poncas combined. The first suit which they will file will be for a small amount. But if this test case issuccessful, they will follow it up with others involving lands comprising almost half of the state of New York and valued at $tt,000>000,(K)0! They assert that !H,O0O,O<NMNIO acres of laud In the Empire state rightfully belongs to them and although they have not yet decided who the defendant in the suits is to be, it probably will be the commonwealth of New York, rather than the United States, since it was that state, according to their claims, that tricked them out of their lands. The case of the Iroquois goes back nearly 150 years to the time when Sir William Johnson, an Irishman who settled In the Mohawk valley, was superintendent of Indian affaii* in North America for his majesty, the king of England. Johnson is the greatest .figure in early colonial history, not even excepting George Washington and Benjamin Franklin. He was the one man whom a» the. Indians respected and trustej) for he never broke Ills word to tfieni. This was es|»eclnlly true of the great New York Iroquois confederacy or the Leagye of the Six Nations--Mohawk, Onondaga, Cayuga, Oneida. Seneca and Tuscarora. Part of his Influence was due to the fact that he married Molly Brant, the sister of Joseph Brant, the great war chief of the Mohawks, who was Johnson's assistant in the conduct of Indian affairs. ^ From the beginning of white occupation on th|s continent, the Iroquois Confederacy was recognized as an independent nation and treated on terms of. equality by every European power that had any dealings with it. It was so regarded in 1768 when Sir William Johnson and four other representatives of Great Britain and six representatives <tf the Iroquolfe made treuty at Fort Stanwlx (on the present site of Rome, N. Y.) and signed a deed establishing the eastern boundary of the Iroquois territory. This boundary, known as "Sir William Johnson's Line" or the "Line of Proj»erty," confirmed the Iroquois in their possession of the western half of New York and restricted the colonists to the eastern half. ^ Sir William, who had foreseen the inevitable conflict between the colonies and the mother country and who had labored to hold the Sit Nations neutral when war came, dled,in 1774. When the war broke out the Oneidas and about half of the Tuscaroras took the part of the Americans. The other nations went to the 'British. The Iroquois confederacy was broken up. In 1784 the federal government signed a peace treaty with the Six Nations at Fort Stanwlx establishing a western boundary to their lands. They gave up their claims to territory in Ohio but retained tiie country from Lake Ontario sotith to Pennsylvania and their rights within th«se boundaries were confirmed, with specific mention being made of the Oneidas and the Tuscaroras. Soon afterwards Governor Clintoii of New York opened negotiations with the Cayu^as. and within five f years had secured a cession. In the meantime the Onondagas had disposed of Some of their lands to Individual psrehasers. They were told that this was illegal and that the Remedy was for them to cede all their lands to the state. This they did. retaining <»nly a small tract for a reservation. The same practice was carried out with the Oneidas and the others until virtually gll of the lands of the Six Nations were in possession of the state of New York. . In 1790 a delegation, headed by Corn Planter, the great orator of the Senecas, went to Philadelphia to see President Washington about these dealings. Corn Planter made an floquent api>eal for redress of their wrongs and Washington promised the Indians that justice should be done to them. These promises were never made good by Washington's successors and the Iroquois are now Seeking restitution. -- They are basing their claims JlUr William Johnson's treaty of 1768, which they say was reaffirmed by the federal government treating with the Iroquois as an independent nution at the Fort Stanwlx treaty in 1784. The cessions to New York were Illegal, they contend, because Governor Clinton negotiated with the Onondagas, the Oneidas and the Cayugas as individual nations and not with the Iroquois confederacy as a whole. More * than that, these cessions were not sanctioned by the federal government of the United States and they quote Washington's words to Corn Planter: "Here, then, is the security for the remainder of your lands; no State nor person can purchase your lands except at a general treaty held under the authority of the United States." The case of the Cherokees is another in which a state rather than the United States probably will be the defendant. They are claiming some 5,000,- 000 acres of land In eastern Tennessee, Including the important city of Chattanooga and the rich farming lands which surround It. Tennessee was once a part of North Carolina and the Indians' claim Is based primarily upon a section of the fcorth Carolina code of 1783 which laid down very definite boundaries for a certain tract of land and Stated that the "lands contained in the aforesaid bounds shall be reserved to the said Cherokee Indians and their nation forever, anything hereinbefore to the contrary notwithstanding." In 1828 the state of Tennessee made a treaty with the Cherokees, known as the Ocoee Purchase, by which the Indians surrendered their lands and agreed to go to Indian Territory. A part of the tribe refused to move, however, and tied to the lastnesses of the Great Smoky mountains, where x their descendants still live. It is this part of the frlbe that Is about to bring suit fof compensation , for the 5,000,000-ncre tract mentioned, another tract of 640 acres in the Myccasin Bend, which .Hiey assert was set aside as a reservation for them under a treaty made -with Andrew Jackpon In 1817, and interest amounting to approximately $100,- OUO.OOO. So a new era in Indian affairs is dawning in the United States. The old era ended when the last Indian war ended, as had all others, in defeat for the red man and triumph for the white man. That Uarked the end of "Ited-Man-Goes-to-War." But the recent legislation has created a new Indian. He is vlied-.Man-Goes-To-I.aw" and It looks now as though lie were going to he as troublesome for Ms white brother as was his painted and war-bonneted ancestors of an earlier day. HAVE YOU AN IDEA? % Eugene P. Beaumont Had--And Now He Is Neck Tie King of the World •f" EUGENE P. BEAUMONT of Buffalo, N. Y., thought he was dead broke. But he wasn't, because he had an Idea, plus faith, plus initiative, pins courage. Beaumont conducted a little upstairs waist shop. He invested his in material and made it in o waists. Then feminine fashions, always fickle, changed, and he lost everything. No, that isn't quite true. He lost everything but an idea. Deeply in debt, Beaumont hustled out and borrowed $200. That took courage, but he had it. With the borrowed capital Beaumont and his wife started a mall order necktie business. That was less than three years ago. Now Beaumont is the Neck Tie King of the world. At first he bought his neckties where he could. Now fourteen necktie mills are working double shifts to supply him with ties. In ad dltlon he takes slmost the entire output of a garter factory, s suspender mill, handkerchief factory, a belt factory and several hosiery mills. Just a big Idea born in the brain ot a man who had faith in himself and his fellows, plus energy and industry. Now he isn't dependent upon the whim of fashions -- he makes fashions. Did you ever get four nice neckties In a package sent to you on approval with a Btamped and addressed container in which to send them back if you did not want to keep them? It you did they came from Beaumont. Doesn't sound like such a big idea, does it? But it has made Eugene P. Beaumont a millionaire. It has furnished remunerative employment to several hundred people.
