WASHINGTON, July '29.- The passing
of the Red Man and his slow but
steady absorption into the IhhIw1 of-
America*) citizenship, was made i^ilent
by the recent order of the Indian Of-
fice' dissolving t,he Cherokee nation as a
tribal entity on July 1 laist and plac-
ing the members of the largest oMhe
Five Civilized Tribes on the satne ’Jool-
ing as white residents of Oklahoma.
The Cherokees have figured In some
of the notable stages' of American his-
tory. EthnelogicaUy they are said to
be a branch of the Iroquois family, al-
though nexer allied politically with the
Iroqiidfs nation. Originally they occu-
pied the. Appanialox. basin,of Virginia,
but were gradually driven south into
Georgia and’ the 'Carolinas, with
branches in Kentucky and Tennessee.’
Here they developed the fRAvepful con-
federacy which lyade treaties witli the
I nited States, an<t..resisted the efforts
of the states to dispossess them. This
:raisei.l one of the first issues over the
status, being hmernl by fedt-fnl -trcattf’S.
When the United stated snjjreme Court
sustained the Cherokee treaties, An-
drew Jackson, then President, made Id*
famous remark: "Well, John Marshall
lias imulc his decigioii,■ now let him en-
force it."
The Cherokees made rapid progress
in education and civilization, abandon^
ing the chase for agritmltiuT,
finally developing an . alphabet
language of tlieir own.
