Washington Special 10 Chicago
Times !: It Is said that there Will be
ionic difficulty il carry ing into effect
senator Dawes, bill regarding the Sioux
reservation, should the bill pass con-
sress. Under this bill the government
you'd acquire "a, 900 square miles Of
territory, for whiohit would pay 81 ,OOO, =
700, 25, 900 COWS and 10, 900 bulls. By
:he provisions of the treaty Of 1863 no.
turther sale Of lands Gamble m,sde by the
Sioux without the .consent sof three,
iourths Of the adult male population.
This will not be easily obtaine ed. The.
government annually expends ! on the
thirty thousand Sioux $500, 900, The
major portion of this sum is spent for
provisions and clothing. So long as
these are furnished in abundance, as is
The case OF present, the Indians
refuse to work or acquire the
knowledge which will enable
Them to support themselves. Indian
Agent Nc Gilicuddy, who is at present
h the city, when asked why he did not
iavor the cutting oil OF these supplies,
answered that, such an act would result
IN the ruin Of every. settler within
radius Of 100 miles. Too lazy and idle
10 work, the Sioux would run of the
Itock Of the settlers until that source Of
lupply was exhausted, and then murder
md pillage would speedily follow. I'm
Ter the present condition Of things no
Eouble is appra hended. Mr.. Met lille
suddy says the purchase 3 Of IA, 900;
square miles ordered IN the Dawes bill:
would open up that splendid belt Of
country lying in Dakota between the
White and Cheyenne rivers, as we'll rs:
the region in and about the Black Hills.

toads now projected through the terri
tory, such an impetus would be given
