To those who may be seeking home
stead on the portion of the Sioux reserva-
tion soon to be ceded to the government,
we will state that It does not all lie west Of
the Missouri. The cream of it happens
to be on this side of the Big Muddy aud
lies i'll the south west part Of Hand, south
Hyde and west Buffalo counties. There
is no land west Of the river to compare
vita it and besides 1t is all nearer ciyiliza-
ton. claim il the section of country
named is great bargain compared with

a Hand county Farmer is alleged TO have
intimated there is corruption among Hand

the Times has the following:

payer, who has just read the PRESS arti-
Gle to ask Bro. Kepnart to answer the
following question for the benefit of the
Times Hand county readers: HAS a
statement OF the financial affairs Of Hand
county ever been made out and published
so that the taxpayer could see Just how
the county stood?" II hot, why notp
In reply We aie commpelled to state that
a clear and succinct statement Of the exact
financial condition OF county has only
been published semi annually in the St
Lawrence Journal. Rec Heights Press and
HAND CoUsrv pnHss for tho pass three
or four years and in this paper every wear
since the county was organized. We
have full and complete file of the PRESS
and can show the Hand county Tsx-
payer(O" the exact condition of the county
nihanciaily from way back. We will print
another one this month which the H. Co.
t. p. can see when he drops in the Tines
Office to look over its exchanges-for he
gives evidence he is not a subscriber to
any Hand county paper. Only a few
months ago the territorial examiner looked
over our county books and reported every
thing 6. X. Another Hand county farmer
tax payer-who pays his taxes promptly
every year TOBIAS asked us to suggest
that this II. G. {. p. be kind enough, be-
fore he institutes proceedings for an in
vestigstion, to agree to assume all expense
of such an Investigation provided nothing
OF corrupt nature is discovered. The
average tar payer does not care to pay ex-
penses for any wild goose chase.
