Micco Ladiga – purchase of Creek land by J.S.U.
CREEK-SOUTHEAST post/query – dated 13 April 2009
——————————————————————–
Hey Tim,
There are quite a few Creek Reserves in Alabama and Georgia. They were
granted to “Friendly Creeks”. In most cases, the legal owners were driven off
their lands only a short time after the reserves were granted. I don’t
know the legal particulars of the two tracts you read about, however.
Jacksonville University advertises on its web site that the original land
for the college was purchased from a Creek mikko named Ladiga.

“I have been made aware, today, that Governor Riley allegedly has written an email letter to some of the 72 papers that publish my syndicated column “Inside the Statehouse.”
If indeed Gov. Riley is the author of the letter which takes issue with my column of Feb 25, 2009, then this letter shall serve as defense of my column.
I stand totally behind the entire column. It is totally true to the best of my knowledge and I do not retract any of it.
Please review the column to refresh the details of the discussion. (…. CLICK LINK for FULL details)
Cleburne News – Flowers column stirs controversy
Editor’s Note: The Feb. 26 issue of The Cleburne News carried a column by Steve Flowers in which he stated that out-of-state gambling interests have assisted Gov. Riley during election campaigns. Both Gov. Riley and the Poarch Band of Creek Indians responded with letters reprinted here to give their version of the facts.
Governor’s Response
“Your newspaper may have recently published a column written by Steve Flowers that is totally false in what it says about me. Not just a few mistakes, but every line in it about me is not true. (… CLICK LINK for more details)
