Enrollment of post September 1902 Cherokee children in allotment case

Supreme Court holds that under the April 26 1906 act as amended June 21 1906, children born after September 1 1902 and living on March 4 1906 are admissible to enrollment and to participate in allotment and distribution of Cherokee lands and tribal funds, despite earlier limits in the 1902 Cherokee Agreement. The decision upholds Congress power to adjust enrollment rights and preserves individual allotments while allowing new entrants.
