Land open to settlement in Turtle mountain region
A Wasumoron telegram notes the land department will abandon attempts to form a Turtle mountain forest reserve and will open the region to settlement. Much land carries scrub timber and is suitable for mixed farming, boosting Rolette and Bottineau counties as new settlers move in. The Jamestown Alert contrasts private and officer pay in the volunteer army, pointing out rations and clothing for privates but independent provisioning for officers. President Harrison hails Lieut Hobson and the Merrimac crew for a historic act of heroism and compares it to Dewey’s Bravery at Manila, praising their sacrifice and risk.
