ACCORDING to lhe Yankton Press and
Dakotaian, ex-Delegate Pettigrew claims
to have inside information regarding the
Sioux reservation bill. Among other
things he says the bill will surely pass
the senate and new land office will be
created and located at old Fort Pierre,
some five miles above the present Pierre
and on the other side of the river. If this
information is correct, there is a 'nigger'
somewhere. It is not the dear people
some persons are working for so much
as for a close syndicate with thousands
in sight. If new land office is to be
created, it should be located at Pierre
the present city that has gone through
such a sweating during the past two
years. Those who have stood by the
ship during the storm of depression
should have some of the benefits Of clear
sailing. That west side land deal sounds

wants and he says if everybody wants
him m-and there are no campaign expenses
to be borne by himself f-he would sacri-
fee couple years of his life for the
benefit of the people. That is what the

are with Cal. The politicians, Judge
