Cherokee Nation Claims Race Problem Solved
The Kansas City Journal reports the Cherokee Nation claims the race problem is solved for full bloods, mixed bloods, and freedmen. Full bloods and Negroes reside in separate settlements while intermarried whites live in nearby towns. Schools reflect divisions, with 30 Cherokee full blood and 17 Negro schools, and social life shows limited intermarriage though classrooms foster fellowship. Population estimates: 8,500 full bloods, 3,200 intermarried whites, 22,800 mixed bloods, 4,000 freedmen among 38,500 citizens.
