1908 people will be relieved from suifeIing which

three sections of Mr.. Pugh's resolution. When it

Mr.. Pugh His tliddleberger'sl resolution merely
involved two propositions, namely, that we had no
right to require from the president the reasons for

Earth reservation report alarm and uneasiness over
the action of the Indians. The large camp which
has been from time immemorial on Upper
Rice Lake has been removed to Rice Lake, instead
of Winter Lake. The young bucks are very jllbi-
liant and excited. They have taken to paint and
carry red streak on each cheek, something not
observed On them Of late years. The camp
in Rice Lake presents unusual scenes
of activity, and Indians from all over the reserva-
ton, except those at White Earth, are gathering
