II is well worn story, but speaking Of
Oklahoma and the Sioux reservation, all
the western population. and IN fact the
people Of the nation generally understand
that the public domain of agrIcult ural
lands has finally neared the minimum
point. The insane rush to Oklahoma
demonstrates this fact. A land thrown
open to settlement, possessing twice the
area of this county, is buried out of sight
with homeseekers like a drop Of syrup by
flies In mid summer. Yet the people of
this country do not realize the serious
fact that Uncle Sans boon Of 100 acres of
free agricultural lands to the homeseekers
practi cally becomes a myth when that
portion of the great Sioux reservation
about to be ceded to the governments by
the Sioux indians is settled.
The grand rush to Oklahoma which set
tied mp that countrv in two or three days
does not exceed nor eqaal the number
that came to Dakota in the single season
Of 1855. Bnt the immigration Of 1883
was sprinkled over territory one hun
dred times as big as Oklahoma. The
great body Of Dakota outside OF it's In
dian reservations is practically all settled.
Nov Oklahoma is settled
Soon-say six months from now--the
President of the United States will issue
his proclamation that II 900. 900 acres
the last Of Uncle Sans agricultural do
main-is opened for the home steader.
In the meantime the alarm will become
more general and the fat will be that
Americas prairie paradise is gone forever
to him who would haye q government
farm.
This Is not an idle tale we give to mil
lions who would seek the privileges of a
government homestead of 160 acres nf
fine prairie land but for pitiable reliance
In the belief that Uucle Sam still has mil
lions more to give. With the opening Of
the Sioux reservation about sevcn times
the size OF Oklahoma--and Uncle Sam
goes busted on prairie farms. He has
millions Of acres more out II stands stack
ed in mountains. deep gorges and irretriev-
able desert lands. The conclusion nat
uraily is that the opening ot the great
Siouv viii produce panIc among home
steaders- such as the Oklahoma region
only knows. Then, whst' The only re-
