prevails in the low Lewiston
section. The tablelands receive
.sufficient snowfall to maintain
the soil in constant and fruitful
moisture. The crude Indian
methods have not produced the
highest agricultural results, but
all the cerials and deciduous
fruits have shown remarkable
yields. Considerable bodies OF
the unallotted lands in large
areas are leased to whites, some
Of them cultivating as high as
5000 acres. There are perhaps
100 families of these lessees now
living on the land and operating
about one fourth of all the do
main. Their crops average 40
to 80 bushels of wheat to the
acre, but their improvements
and methods are all temporary
and have no fixed value. These
lessees are all under the control
Of the Indian agent, who regu-
lates their leases and can remove
them at will. The lands were
all surveyed and plated a few
years ago by Miss Fletcher, and
therefore the opening should not
be deferred for wantzof that, as
has occurred in most other cases.

Those who knew linn when he
was a young man would have
laughed one to scorn who should
have predicted that the time
would ever come when he would
have as much as q quarter of a
dollar which he could call his
own. The trouble was not that
he was without capacity to earn.
He had no difficulty in secureing
remuneratiye employments,
but in his youthful
days his savings went for books
and instruments and for the re-
lief of impecpnious and ofttimes
undeserving associates, and he
always was in debt and always
wore shabby clothes. When he
came to New Turk Turk in his %
year. he was as poor as a church
m ouse. He wandered about the
city for three weeks seeking en-
plovment, and we are told that
in this time he actually suffered
more than once the pangs of
hunger. He chanced one day
to enter the office OF Laws Gold
