Callers are frequently asking for cop
les of the GRAPHIC containing reser-
yatlon news. We have no special cd
Eition containing news of The reservation,
but every week publish everything IN
the way of news relating to it. If you
have a friend East who is interested in
the matter-and most likely you have
come in ar atorder the GRAPHIC sent to
hir2 regularly for a few months. 1t will
cost you but a trifle, be better than any
amount of letters, and as cheap. If
! anything will fetch him to this goodly
lana tnat will. 1t has brought many of
them and will bring many morc. If
every one of or county subscribers
!, would subscribe for an extra copy to be
sent East it would do a vast amount-of
good-more than at first thought seems
possible. The best boom literature for
any town and country in the world is a
copy of the local paper as it appears
| every week. 1t is a daily reflex of the
| community in which it exists. We are
4 willing and anxious to make special
rates on such notwithstanding The
profits as bead upon the waters. In the
| meantime, while the new subscriptions
are pouring In, let us suggest tie idea OF
having the business interest of Kimball
better represented in the columns of the
| GRAPHIC. The paper will show Kimball

A former Douglas county man writes
from California as follows to the Ar
mour Tribune:
wish to say that about one year and
a half ago sold my farm in Douglas
county with a view of finding a home in
California-that country where milk and
honey lows-but much to my surpriee,
find there is no home here for me. |
would advise all that have a good home
anywhere in South Dakota to keep il,
instead of coming out here and spending
all their money for q little ten acre lot
where they can have no stock, o even
. few chickens. The only thing we can
do is to roll up our sleeves and go to
work by the day, and do that so long as
we stay in California, except when sick
with the fever and chills. Oh, give me
q climate such as South Dakota possess
es! And give me the country where a
white man does not have to come down
on an equal with the cursed Cinnamon.
If a "a goes away from home to work
he must take his bed on his back and
sleep on the ground. If | had a home
in Douglas county l would not partwith
it. l Will be with you

Every fellow seems to have his own
idea abou. the Sioux reservntion-when
it will be ready for settlement, etc. A
Huron special says:
The opening of the great Sioux reser-
walton will be no special advantage to
the people at large for several years. 1t
viii require tEe remainder of this year
to SECURE the necessary number of sig,
natures by the Indians. All of 1889 will
be required to survey it; most of 1890
will be used up in having these surveys
put through the United States land office.
Not until the end of that year can set
tiers occupy the land. and then only
homesteaders can take it. They must
live on it five years and then pay so
cents an acre for it..
