EDITOR JouRNAL.-1 have Just returned
from visit to the Chippewa Indian Reser-
walton at White Earth, in company with r
L. Whiting and L. o. Denns, and found the
Indians somewhat disheartened over the
news just received by letter that there was
talk Of their being removed again. They
were making preparations for building
more houses. but in view Of tho prospect
Of their removal they hardly know what to
do. They appeared satisfied with their To-
cation, and wished to remain where they
were. So far as could see, their crops
looked we'll. They had just been working
the roads, cutting through the timber and
building good bridges across the ravine.
It appeared as though they were setting .
good example to the whites. They have a
fine country, and every prospect Of doing
we'll in the way of farming, aud they ap-
pear somewhat proud over the bright pros
pect Of having something, procured by
their labor, to subsist ur on during another
long winter. We encouraged them to con-
tinue to cultivate spirit Of peace and
friendship towards the whites and towards
all men, and endeavored to show them that
by proper industry they could ere long be-
oome>a wealthy and happy people. They
appeared pleased with the idea, and said
they had already commenced, and had q
desire to continue.
At Oak Lake, a few families of whites
reside, but the country is more rough and
broken. A few miles west Of there the
land is better, with plenty Of hay, timber
and water, but is all taken up, covered
wagons standing at almost every grove Of
timber. But to the south there is vacant
land where good claims, am told, may be
taken. We also found several claims taken
along the road from Otter Tail to White
Earth, and houses being erected. The soil
is more sandy than it is further north, but
much Of it will produce good crops if well
cultivated. The N. P. r. r. surveyors
were running their lines through the de-
troit Lake woods, as We were returning
homo. We found crops good at Rush Lake
settlement.
Otter Tail City is improving slowly.
There is plenty Of pine lumber at the steam
mills.
But to return to our own locality. We
have good prospect Of bountiful har
vest. All our early sowed grain looks
Splendid think even better than any
! year since We have lived here. This speaks
well for the sandy subsoil. Our corn also
looks fine. Potatoes 80 far are doing well,
although the bugs are quite plenty on some
pieces. We have had plenty Of rain to
keep our crops growing. Our harvest will
commence in week or ten days. Claims
are still being taken to the east and south
of us, aud the whole country is almost
taken on the west. Minnesota is bound to
fill up. c. WHITING.
