Urgent Call for Aid on Indian Lands Crisis as Troops Sought
News dispatches from Waewsarex and Muskogee report Congress poised for radical action on Indian Territory lands. Dawes Commission will urge territorial government for the Five Civilized Tribes, likely attaching the Kiowa and Comanche country to Oklahoma and pushing for a new state. Reports describe rampant lawlessness, robberies, rapes, and the demand for military intervention to restore order. The interior and war departments debate authorization while Indian Agent Wisdom notes the need to expand federal courts and address land holding practices and Choctaw beer production.
