Burke plan opens Rosebud land with public grounds provision
In a Washington dispatch Senator Gamble pushes Pine Ridge opening while Rep Burke introduces a half million acre Rosebud bill. Burke includes townsite selection by government with ten acres set aside for schools parks and public uses and 20 percent of net proceeds for public buildings. He also requires additional selections if original gains are lost. The plan has Indian approval and is seen as favorable to McLaughlin. Also noted are mineral-land studies at Standing Rock and Cheyenne River aimed at withdrawal from settlement and fall registration. A separate local dispute involves Rev. Dr. Hartzell at South Park Avenue Methodist Church facing removal threats from a city alderman who criticized his stance on morality and saloon reform.
