William Rice *" Perhaps the most basic principle of all Indian law, sup- ported by a host of decisions... is the principle that those powers which are lawfully vested in an Indian tribe are not, in general, delegatedpowers granted by express acts of Con- gress, but rather inherent powers of a limited sovereignty which has never been extinguished.... What is not expressly limited remains within the domain of tribalsovereignty....' Introduction The nature of the federal government's role within the American federal system has changed significantly with the adoption of the "New Federalism" strategy or approach to the delivery of federal programs. New Federalism basically propounds a shift in the balance of governmental decision making away from the federal complex in Washington toward the exercise of these respon- sibilities on the local level by local general purpose government.

Fullerton Page 251 One of the inventions which has been the result of our modern civilization and which has in turn made a contribution to that same civilization is the telephone. In this day of easy communication by wire, by air, by steam, or by automobile it is fitting that we pause and wonder by what means messages were sent from one point to another a short half century ago, but the imagination fails to bring to our vision conditions of that period. Only those who lived and worked then and who have kept the memory of those days intact amid the hustle and bustle of the present, can give this story to us. In our own state of Oklahoma, in the period immediately following the War between the States, there was a gradual transformation from the strong governments of the Indian Nations to a government controlled more and more by the United States. The seat of this control so far as the Cherokee Nation was concerned was at Muskogee.

H. Murray, formerly of Tishomingo, Oklahoma, now of Colonia Murray, El Palmar, El Gran Chaco, Bolivia, S. A. This story has to do with the birth of Oklahoma, and gives some very important accounts of the Sequoyah convention relative to the members of the convention, held in Muskogee the year 1905. Mr. Murray also gives the history of the Constitutional convention, held in Guthrie, specializing with reference to the important laws, and prominent men who were more or less responsible for the constitution as adopted. This article will be published in a future number of Chronicles; and the original copy, which is written in Mr. Murray’s own hand, will be preserved in the files of the society. The article as prepared by Mr. Murray, is written on both sides of the paper for the reason, he says, to save postage necessary to so long a voyage.

INTRODUCTION Indian land claims have long been a foundational and fundamental subject of American law. For an equal period, Indians and Indian tribes have been acutely aware that their land base has been shrinking since the beginning of the European invasion.l Outnumbered, outgunned, and out-brutalized, Indians have had little choice but to recede. Nevertheless, Indians and Indian tribes have never forgotten their sacred homelands, and continuously seek to restore their lands. This behavior, it seems, baffles non-Indian legal experts 2 and legal philosophers 3 who often argue these "ancient" Indian land claims should be dismissed.4 Conversely, some tribal people argue Indian rights to * Assistant Professor, University of North Dakota School of Law.
