RUSH TO RED LAKE
THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE WHO
WANT GOOD LAND.
oners of From Ten to Thirty Dol
Anrs Are Made for Fleet Hoses to
be Used On the Day of the Open
ing - Farmer Near the Line Ex-
Pect to secure the Choicest
Pieces of Land,

Fosston, Mimi, May 12.-As the day
approaches for the opening of the Red
Lake reservation to settlement there
is considerable activity manifested
among the farmers along the western
line. Most of them have eyes on
choice tracts for themselves or some
friend or relative. Being familiar
with the country, it is the expectation
OF the farmer to be able to outfoot the
tenderfoot, and come in n few minutes
ahead in the race for the best lands
which lie close to the line. At O'Neil's
place on Lost river, twenty miles
north of Fosston, there is said to be a
small village of some seventy or
eighty tents, occupied by men intend
ing to make the grand rush, and with
them are some of the fleetest horses to
be found in this section of the country.
Fleet horses are in demand now, and
some of the Iowa and Southern Min
nesota people have disposed of stock
of that sort at good prices. Up near
the line offers are freely made of $40,
$50 and even $50 for the use of a fast
nag on the opening day. To-day Foss-
ton is almost deserted of it's young
men and long-legged roadsters. A
brigade has left for the line in order
to get a satisfactory station from
which TO make the run. On the banks
OF Lost river in the last few days
some sooners have erected log houses
on the reserve, but there are plenty of
men who will make the rush for them
and contest the right of the builders
when they get to the land office. The
weather has been changed to spring
sunshine, and practically all the COW
I wagons in town yesterday have
been unable to withstand the tempta-
ton. and have gone toward the line
in spite of the mud and water.
