Pine Ridge and Rosebud
Reservations to be
Opened.
A Washington special of recent
date Rives the story of the efficient
work done by the South Dakota rep-
resentatives in congress in relation to
the opening of the Pine Ridge and
Rosebud reservations. The bill pro-
v-di-s for a presidential proclamation
, opening the land for settlement at a
, future date and in the meantime a
board of appraisers is to visit the land
and classify and appraise each 180
acre tract, as agricultural lands, graz-
ing land:,, timber lands, mineral lands,
etc. Just when the land willbe open-
ed is a matter of conjecture but the
probility is that the resistration will
take place this fall.
Because ot its location in relation
to the Bennett county lands, Kadoka
has been prominently mentioned as
one of the registration points and
thtra is a strong probability that this
town willbe named.
The following is the special:
Charles H. Burke and Robert J.
Gamble ant* two citizens of the state
of South Dakota who feel pretty welli
satisfied with the world tonight. The,
conference reports on the Pine Ridge
and Rosebud opening billp have been '
approved in both house and senate
and went to the White House tonight
for the st act needed to make them
laws of the land. Senator Gamble
got the reports accepted yesterday in
the senate and Chairman Burke guid-
ed them safely through the dangers
in the house late this afternoon.
The Sabath amendment, which uer-
mitted registration to take place
from any part of the country without
visiting the beautiful state of South
Dakota was the cause of *llthe worry
on the part of the statesmen who
wanted the bills to pass, This would
have meant millions of applications
in the lottery for a million and a half
acres of land. It would have cost
the Indians a large sum to take care
of the registration.
When the conference committee
took hold of the bills *as passed in
house and senate they eliminated the
amendment. Stephens, of Texas,
held out until late yesterday, but he
.finally signed the Report. All day
long Burku and Martin have been
busy with the house members explain-
ing the bills and securing votes to put
the conference report through. On
the other side, Sabath was seeking
support for his amendment. -He
looked to Mann, who always objects,
but Mann said Burke was right. Sab-
ath looked to Ferris and Carter and
others, of Oklahoma, but thej agreed
with Burke. So, when the conference
report came up for consideration
Sabath saw he was whipped and ask-
ed for time to make a speech, which
was given him. He made the speech
and the bills were passed.
These bills throw open to settlement
1,500,000 acres of land in the southern
part of the state. Registration points
.will be selected by the department
and the applicants will have to jour-
ney to one of these points to deposit
their applications. Already Gregory
wants to be one of the registration
points. Merriman, Neb., demands
recognition as the registration point
for Bennett county. Chamberlain,
Kadoka, Murdo and Rapid City have
also been mentioned as possible loca-
tions for the registration. Four of
these towns will be chosen and the
registration willbegin next year.
STATE EXPERTS LOANED.
At the time the two cent rate hear-
ing wbh held in Chicago, a represent-
ative of the department of the attor-
ney general of Illinois attended the
hearing and listened to the testimony
of the state witnesses. As a result of
his attention to the manner in which
the testimony was presented by the
experts employed by South Dakota,
the Illinois authorities have requested
that the services of these men: C. W.
Hillman, expert accountant on books
and C. C. Witt, civil engineer, and E.
F. Swarts accountant on physical
valuations, be loaned to that state for
a like suit against the Chicago, Peoria
and St. Louis road. It has been de-
cided that these men willbe allowed
to take up the work in Illinois as
soon as all hearings in the South Da-
kota case are completed, which will
be in a short time. This request com-
ing from Illinois is certainly not only
a tribute to the South Dakota men
themselves who made a showing in
their work to attract the attention of
outside states, but also to the state
legal and railway departments for se-
curing the services of such man in
the work of rate litigation.—Tyndall
Tribune.

Lee Moore & Son Buy

placed iton a tower beside tl.e engine
house and have it in readiness to give
warning to our citizens in case of fire.
We hope it willnot be needed soon
but are glad that it is in readiness to

SURVEYORS AT WORK.
Word comes through a number of
people down from the Ash Creek
country that a party of surveyors for
the Milwaukee road are running pre-
liminary lines and working to the
southeast, practically along the
North-Western survey that, was made
last year. They started, it is under-
stood, at the end of the Fox Ridge
survey at Faith, Meade county, and
are to work into Kadoka. Perhaps it
means another line for Philip.—Philip
Review.
SECURES ROCK FOOTINGS
Engineer Middleton and assistants
have been engaged since the first of
the week in taking soundings for
solid bottom on which to rest the
piers for a new railroad bridge. The
engineers have made five soundings
and found rock bottom at depths
varying from 42 to 68 feet. It is stated
that the work of putting in the piers
for the bridge willbegin immediately
after the June rise. It is also stated
that there will be no delay in traffic
caused by the construction of the
bridge.—Chamberlain Chronicle.
MEMORIAL DAY SERVICES.
The anniversary properly known as
"Memorial Day,” but commonly
spoken of as Decoration Day, occurs
this year on next Monday, May 30th.
All over the United States it is custo-
mary to observe this day by appropri-
ate ceremonies, prominent among
which is the decoration of all graves

States. It is also customary to have
special memorial services in honor of
the Nation’s defenders held in some
church in each community, on the
Sunday proceeding Memorial Day.
Accordingly, a memorial sermon will
be preached in the Woodman Hall at
the hour of the regular morning ser-
vice—lo:3o a. m. All soldiers and
members of soldiers’ families are es-
pecially invited to be present, as well
as all others who are interested In
fostering and developing the spirit of
patriotism among our people.
CEMETERY SURVEYED.
County Surveyor R. H. Townsend,
of Fort Pierre, has been in town for
the past week doing surveying for
our citizens. His first "work was to
plot the cemetery. This work con-
sisting of an acre of ground is laid
out in sixty-four lots fifteen feet
square with a four foot walk around
each 101, then around the whole plat
: is a thirty foot drive way. The eeme-
I tery has been deeded by the town
I ward to J. L. White and E. T. Nellor
and they willfence it and will soon
be in readiness to place the lots on
sale at prices ranging from flO to |25
each. Since Mr. Townsend concluded
the cometery work he has been busy
surveying the various tracts about
town which were sold and deeded by
metes and bounds and in many instan
ces the owners have defective titles.
It willall be surveyed and then the
proper titles can be given to the own-
ers of the property.
