quite sensation, especially among the
many foreigners, who have never seen any,
thing Of the kind. Every one here is busy
we have no idlers; our working force are
building cattle sheds and preparing things
generally around the agency. Our saw and
grisl mill runs day and night, saving by
day and grinding wheat for the Indians by
night, while our "rcd tape makers are
