have the largest convention ever held
In the State with the exception OF the
various political conventions. People
who are not personally interested have
but little idea of the development and
progress Of the sheep industry in our
State. We have made thorough can
vass OF the situation and find for one
thing that there are between 1850 and
1000 sheep growers in South Dakota
east of the Mi souri. At least Que hun
dred OF these from my locality will visit
Aberdeen at the time OF the convention
and We have good reason to expect 5O4
or 600 In ALL A frst-class program IL
being prepared, and many prominent
men connected with the industry from
outside States will be with us to give
impromptu but valuable aid to the ro-
ceedings There are opportunities for
investment here in the sheep business
which, when thoroughly understood.
will add immensely to our resources"

lycuddy, formerly the Indian agent q,
Fine Ridge. called ut army headquarters
and gave it as his opinion that trouble
might be expected at the Rosebud and
other agencies.
The Indiins have been aroused TO q
high state of excitement by the recent
killing OF an Indian near Black Pike
Creek, north OF White River, and ont of
the jurisdiction of the government. The
murderer was desperate named Jack
Whipple, who pounded the redskin to
death. The indians demanded ven-
geance and Whipple was arrested. but
the authorities claimed nothing could
be done with him, as the killing oc-
Cured outside of the jurisdiction of the
United States. The indians could not

Giliycuddy also says the redskins are
still indulging in the ghost dance and
are ready for any exciting event as an
excuse for an outbreak.
AnO her complaint made by the In
dams is that they are not allowed to eat
part of the catt,e which the govern
ment gives them. Fresh cntrails, and
raw at that are considered a luxury,
but the eating Of these delicacies has
been stopped by the Interior Depart
mcnt it being contended that this food
tends to arouse the brutal and savage
natures of the Indians. The red men
have greatly taken this to heart, and
some of them have refused to take their
ratioas bt1ause the beef was not served
a la entraiI. capt. McGillycuddy sug-
gests as a remedy for the murders of In
dians that the government provide
fund for the prosecution of the murder
ers. Entrails of beef. he believes, should
be kept from the Indians.

was charged to investigate the lynch
ing of Calvin Mcdowell, Tom Moss and
Will Stewart They have begun work
in earnest. 1t is said the lynchers will
be arrested. The jurors have worked
with more earnestness than some OF the
lynchers and the people thought, and
their progress is surprising to those
who thought the investigation would be
u farce. Certain persons, so said Eep-
uty Sheriff Richardson, had threatened
to kill some Of the members OF the
.Sct,netar staff, who wrote several arti-
cles about the lynchers. Richardson
was taken before the grand jury and
made to tell who were the authors OF
the threats and this, it IL sad. Is the
