Opening of Coeur d Alene timber lands eyed for spring
In 1909 reports from the Coeur d’Alene Indian Reservation outline the opening of timber lands to settlers and the plan to set apart land for agency use. B Lamm, special allotting officer, and W W Meyburn, ex secretary to the United States Board, describe a spring opening with land surveys, registered Indian records, and potential market sales of timber lands. The government aims to reserve farmable land while distributing a 640 acre allotment per family, with Indians to select portions and settlers to gain adjoining parcels as the timber resources are managed. The plan envisions 3-4 townsites, a new public park, and ongoing administration to register every Indian on the reserve. The piece also notes Samuel Gompers’s birthday anniversary in London, recognizing his rise as AFL leader.
