The appellants Jean Ann Hoffman Jackson, Geneva Hoffman Ramsay, Henry Edward Hoffman, Jr., and Charles Felix Hoffman, are Quapaw Indian owners of a majority interest in a restricted Quapaw Indian allotment in Ottawa County, Oklahoma, and appellant Henry E. Hoffman, a non-Indian, owns an undivided fractional interest in the same allotment. Section 2 of the Act of July 27, 1939, 53 Stat. 1127, authorizes the leasing of restricted Quapaw Indian land for mining or other purposes in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Interior, provided that "no lease, modification, or assignment thereof shall be made over the written protest of adult Indians owning a majority interest therein."
