READ Tulsa gentleman who contcmpates
visiting Minnesota with some three hundred 9TH
crs in June, writes us as follows: ''If not too
much trouble, | wish YOU to see some honest land
agent, and ascertain on what terms he enter
for me a few hundred acres of your best pine tim
bcrcd land. say from 500 to 1000 acres. Let the
terms and other considerations be known by the
time arrive at your place, so that my negotia-
tons will not dctain me.''
He then goes on to remark that it will be a
great curiosity to see the Indians, and hopes that
all in the vicinity of st. Paul will be the spot
evidently much pleased with his anticipated visit.
This is only one out of some five hundred 9TH
ers who will probably lay Cit money in our terri
tory before leaving it. and we may expect for a
short time at least pretty brisk business. Be
prepared TO answer thousand questions in a.
many seconds.
