%ticipation of the opening of the reserva-
ton, and to evict them, if any were
found: The senseless report sent out
from Pierre that settlers were crossing
the river and going upon the reservation
is now almost certain to cause the re.
moval from the Crow Greek reservation
of a large number of settlers who have
been allowed to remain there by the
mutual consent of the government and
the Indians, and who have during the
past four years established permanent
homes and have at the present time. in
many instances. large crops under cult
walton. They will, of course, have to
abandon the growing fields and the ag-

PRAIRIE fires are great damage to

great extent, be prevented if the road
supervisors OF the county. instead of
putting i'll the work grading and lix-
ing Il few spots, would use the labor
in blowing fire brakes Oh each side of
the roads. Every section line is il
public highway and if the supervisors
will work the !oals ly blowing lire
brakes the country will soon he
marked up like a checker board and it
will he almost impossible for fires to
spread. This is worth considering
and we believe all will see the great
advantage to be gained by following
it out.
