of Board Of six members and their
President, and allowing clerk $500, as
follows: 1919. But in all the counties in
which n Board is required to sit the
twenty-five days, the sessions Of the
County Court Werejust that much longer
in proportion. The number OF days
the Board holds its sessions in this county
per annum is fifteen, and the County
Court held its sessions per annum from
20 to 80 days, while the County Court OF
Ohio, could not transact its business in a
shorter time than at least 100 days per
annum, and other counties, such as Mon.
ongalia, Marion, Preston, Kanawha,
Greenbricr, Jefferson, Berkeley, Mason,
Wood and Harrison, could NOT transact
their business in less than from 90 to 90
days, The above statistics think are

west from the town site Of Americas. The re.
serve extends thence north nine miles and
west fourteen miles. A line Of nGRrow frac-
tioEs Outside Of the even quarteF-sectIOns en-
circles the reservation. These fractions are
AL to be sold under the preaeAt order OF the
Commissioner Of Indian Affairs. Indian
creek, from the west, forms 9 junction with
the Neosho, running southeast, near the south
east corner Of the reservation. With the ex-
eeptiOn OF the fractions above noted, all the
fine bottom and timbered lands up Indian
creek three and . half miles, and all the VAL
ley lands along the NecshO and the large
creeks, are reserved for the Indians. So all
the lands now offered, with the exception Of q
few small pieces Of timber and bottom, are up
land prairie. The bulk Of the reservation -
not to be sold.
By far the greater portion of lands now Of
fered are embraced In the Kanaas Trust
Lands, the southeast corner Of which Is Ia
the northeast quarter Of section s, township
Is, range II. The south boundary Of the old
Trust Land isifty-eight miles north Of Ameri-
Gus town site. The tract now offered for
sale extends to mile and half Of town, and
for many miles north, west and east the lands
are good, and near good settlements, schools,
ETC., etc But however mneh we desIrs to see
these lands sold and occupied, we see no use
in holding out the idea that they are the
choicest in KAnsas-timber. bottom, &c. They
are generally well WAtered, mostly limestone,
with good, deep, rich soil, bat principally up
land. We believe we are safe in asserting
that the southeast portion Of the Trust Lands,
IN the vicinity Of Americas, are the best.
Many settlers have taken claims on this por-
ton and on Bluff creek, and now have good
houses and fenced felds.
