Indian Treaties
In the winter quarterly of the Oklahoma State Historical So- ciety are forty pages devoted to Indian treaties with the whites. Many of them referring to the Mohawk Valley and Sir William Johnson.
The number of treaties covered is 389 and the dates lie between 1778 and 1871. In these times when we are discussing segrega- tion it is well to note that the Amerind, native to the United States, is the one race that is officially segregated.
One-third of all the Indians in our country live in Oklahoma, This name, which means "red earth" was given the State by Rev. Alan Wright, a full blooded Choctaw, a Union College gradu- ate of 1852 whose three sons were also Unlon men.
The high degree of attainment and standing of the Indian of to- day is due to the land tenure pro- vided by treaty stipulation with the Choctaw, Creek and Chero- kee tribes that migrated from the southeast in the 1830s to Indian territory (Oklahoma.)
There are upwards to 5000 spe- cific laws as well as these 389 treaties, some of the latter still extant, that, and a bureaucratic system govern the American In- dian today.
When Johnson in the north or Stuart in the south held a treaty with the Indians it was usually a gathering of the red men from near and far who were featsted at the expense of the Crown, as they campel at the council fire.
