A washington report of the 24th inst.
says: "The interior department has been
informed by Inspector Gardiner, who has
been assisting the Indians and haIf-breeds
in the vicinity of the Turtle Lake (Dak.)
reservation in taking up homesfeads on
the public lands, that the local land Office
at Devils Lake is receiving homestead fill
ings on lands in that locality from half
breeds as citizens. The agent has been in
structed that Indians and half-breeds are
not citizens, and can only become such un-
der special laws enacted by congress. They
can take homesteads only as Indians, sub
ject to the restrictions provided for in the
Indian homestead law. If they secure
patents for homesteads without such re-
strictions, many, if not all Of them viii
part with the lands and take refuge upon
some reservation as charge upon the gov
ernment. II the Indians patent their land
under the Indian homestead law, they can
not part with them for q period Of twenty
five years."

Chicago Inter Ocean: The publishers Of
General Grants book do seem to be aware
of the value Of time. The first edition Of

for some time, and yet we are told the first
edition will not be delivered to subscribers
before December l. The second edition of
100000 will not be ready before March. This
is unnecessary slowness, and will call out
unnumbered complaints from subscribers.

Minneapolis journal: The census re-
turns Of Dakota show the most remarkable
record of increase in population and in
material development Of any state or terri
tory on record. The fact that there is suf-
ficient population and development in the
territory to justify the formation of two
states, and yet partisan administration
denies even one, on purely political grounds.
With all of the showing, it is safe to say
that Dakota will not be admitted in whole
or in part until Montana or some other
democratic territory is admitted. =

In his report Of last months weather
Prof. Snow says: "With one eXcep-

fourth successive month with rainfall
above the average. The cloudiness,
wind velocity and atmospheric pres
sure were all below the average. The

The Halloween festival at the Opera
House last Saturday evening was a
brilliant success, in spite of the threat
ening and gloomy weather. The hall
was we'll filed and every one present
found plenty of entertainment. The
music and the tableaux called forth
hearty applause, while the burlesque
art gallery was q source of endless
amusement. The net proceeds of the
evening were near $50. The ladies ask
us to return their best thanks to the
public for their generous patronage,
and especially to those individuals
who assisted in the entertainment of
the evening.
The Interstate remarks: 1--WE see
ear marks in this election that will re-
turn Funston to Congress, and yet the
great politicians who expect to beat
him have no money or newspaper"
1t further remarks: "There is no good
in the President appointing a nest of
lola politicians with salaries aggregat-
ing $4,000 a year, and that money
will go-well, it will 60 like the corpse
to the grave; if ever 1t returns let us
know. No, it is bread cast in the
grave not on the waters.' And again
it murmurs: "If Cleveland had raked
over the state he could have found no
better help to return Mr.. Funston to
than the little squad of fed
eral appointees he has put up in lola.
Look at the general land office orders
and then look at this ringing Allen
county squad and their platform. They
