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.

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.
