Devils Lake Inter Ocean says: The re.
Iatives and descendants OF these men also
come in for share of this money. It is
stated that there are 80 Indians on the
Fort Totten reservation who are entitled
to share in the distribution, and there
are probably three or four times that
number who think they are entitled to a
portion of 1t, and will endeavor, unsuc-
cessfully, to prove their title.
The distribution of $4,000 means a
good deal to the Fort Totten Indians. It
is the largest amount of money they
have received, their payments heretofore
coming in the shape of clothing, farm
machinery. stock, rations. etc. If the
money is paid to them on this side of the
lake the local merchants will have busy
time supplying the wants Of Mr.. Indian
and his family. They are liberal p1r-
chasers when they have the money.

The elevator owners threaten to quit

They propose to give the law fair trial.
