Honest ader~
Tpwist0n Idaho. NOV. 18.-A special
correspondent visited the feseiNa
tion as Sunday vacat ton. Along
the roads were many people traNellhS
toward the interior. There We're heaNy
covered wagons loaded down with
household goods and the families eS-
pecting to use them, while Hghter rigs
were hurrying on with beds, lunch
baskets and bale Of hay. There were
buggies stuffed to the top with blankets
and boxes drawn by teams white with
froth, and men with pack horses IN
praspector style. And there We're sun
others with a saddle horse, on Whlch
were all the possessions which the
boomer expected to use in locating his
claim,
The weather was fine-a warm sun
making the despondent and weary Wo-
man feel cheerful. On upper Lapwa1
creek there was an ideal canvass city.
The boomers were halted there in large
numbers There is a large tract OF tine
land within easy reach OF this camp
ground and the men were all out seek
ING locations and defending as best
thpy could the claims already selected.
The women and children We're keeping
camp. and the long tables Of rough
boards were loaded with good dinners,
that were free to every Wayfarer. The
women and children were climbing over
the hills and picking flowers, making
picture more appropriate for May than
for November.
on the creeks the lands are owned
bv the Indians The broad prafries are
the white mans prospective homes. In
crossing these slopes the earnest men
were seen running on foot and horse
back, singly and in squads, everywhere.
They were seeking corners, tracing lines
and looking for evidences Of other pro-
bable claims.
The native government surveyor was
seen. He was in great demand. He
could make a small fortune from his
knowledge of lines and corners II he
were inclined to be mercenary. He Is
very obliging, however, and Is doing all
in his power to help the homesteader
one pathetic scene was q poor widow
with four children whom some friend
had conveyed from Genesee to pros
pectiye home She had a frail shelter
Of canvas that was stretched over her
household effects, and under which her
brood collected when night approached.
The poor woman watched every pass
ing stranger with suspicion, lest they
should contemplate a contest OF her
claim to the farm on which the
had squatted and hoped to secure she
seemed to be half demented by the
strain.
The people met with generally gave
no signs Of distress, and there are few
Of the poorer class. There are young
men reared on the farms OF the mlddle
west, who come qualified with expefl-
ence in farm work and with some
means to insure future prosperity. There
are very few men, but a majority o.
them are men with families. The
wives and children have been left be-
hind in comfortable homes as a rule
while the husband and father IS seek
ing out a new home. The families
which are camped within the borders
of the reserve will build log houses
for the winter, or will haul lumber
which is Of easy access.
A number Of people are building ar

The proclamation published IN full

Many no doubt feel disappointed that
the same program was not scheduled in
this case as in Oklahoma reservation,
for the lack Of soldiers has robbed the
event of a great many Of it's exciting
features, and makes it scarcely more
than BOOM

cept great bluffs along the streams, ris-

cattle perhaps, feeding peacefully, can
be seen, and beyond that nothing. What
happened on the other side, around
Cold Springs, one can not learn from

The reservation is larger than Spo-
kane county, with no means Of COM
munication. What might happen at
one side can not be learned at the
other.
At the Lapwai agency things are in
their normal condition. 1t is rumored
that over near Cold Springs in a num-
Der of instances several parties expect
to get the same piece Of land. A fight
may result; indeed, some one may get
hurt, but outside Of a few scraps there
will probably be no trouble.
