Senator Harrisons Amendment for Relief of Crow Creek Settlers
In Washington on January 21 1885 Senator Harrison offers an amendment to the Dakota bill. It would allow certain Crow Creek and Winnebago settlers who entered lands between February 27 and April 17 1885 to re enter and complete claims with priority over later entries for ninety days after the presidents proclamation. The act provides for a special interior department agent to investigate losses and report to Congress if consent of Indians is not obtained. The measure references homestead preemption and townsite entries and directs payments to the general fund.

Editors Fashioning Weak Men into Candidates and Off ice
Editors have clothed weak men as candidates with their own power to keep them from defeat and to maintain office. The editors receive no thanks from those they helped, and small men fail to recognize or express gratitude.
