They can. They are dangerous but they

The present season of the year is specially

permit ! them to prey upon our lives and

Shall we sit calmly and allow this destruc-

A LAND OF PROMISE.
Conservative Statement of the
Value of the Opened Sioux
Reservation.
Nature of the Soil, Trend of the
Water Courses, Growths
of Timber.

Inc Great Sioux reservation lies between
40 deg. 80 min. and 46 deg 10 min,
bounded by the Missouri river the east
and extending to the South Dakota line on
the west, and south embracing all west OF
the Missouri river and south OF the Cannon
Ball river. except the Black fills territory,
ceded in 1876. In all there are nearly
tWenty-one million acres in this described
territory. OF this great body of land the
Indians have by recent treaty consented to
cede to the government nearly one-half, or
according to the best computations, about
nine million acres of land. The opening of
this vast territory to settlement will un-
doubleday cause an extensive emigration,
the home seekers FROM all parts of the East
coming here to make a home and
acquire quarter-sect;on of land
Under the terms of the treaty by which the
Indians cede this land, all settlers coming
into the territory and filing upon this land
within three years of the proclamation which
declares this land open for settlement, must
pay for it at the rate of S1.25 per acre, and
no one will be allowed to file upon more
than 16O acres The portion of the reserva-
tion ceded lies to the south of the Cheyenne
river and north OF the White river, and q
narrow strip of land. as shown by
the map, lying to the north of the
Belle Fouche river in the territory
coded by the treaty of 1876. Within this
territory are found variety of Soils adapted
for the various purposes, farming, grazing
and possibly mining, though as yet nothing
has ever been done in the way of develop
ing the lands The purpose of this article
will be to show what may be found and
where most easily obtained. The land will
be most easily accessible from the points
where the railroads touch the Missouri river,
and from far-out sections along the Elkhorn
Valley railroad in tie Black Hills. The near
est approaches to the reservation by rail are
at Chamberlain and Pierre in Dakota
Crossing the river at chamberlain one
finds himself in the midst of fine grove of
cotton wood timber, extending in narrow
