FIXING THE TIME OF OPENING
Quotations From the Law
Setting Forth the Time
Eor Opening Kiowa
Reservation.

We are often asked when will
the Kiowa and Comanche reser
vation open. In answer to this
we do no more than quote from
the law passed by the last con
gress and approved by the Presi-
dent June 6, 1900. That law
says:
That all allotments of said land
shall be made under the direction
Of the Secretary of the Interior to
said Indians within ninety days
from the passage of this Act, sub
ject to the exceptions contained
in article fuor of said treaty; pro-
vided, That the time for making
allotments shall in no event be
extended beyond six months from
passage of this Act.
Another question that is often
asked us: Will townsites be
established and surveyed when
the land is opened for settle
ments. In answer TO this we
again quote the law.
"When said allotments OF land
shall have been selected and TAX
en- as aforesaid and approved by
the Secretary of the Interior, the
titles thereto shall be held in
trust for the allottees, respective
". for the period of twenty five
years, in the time and manner and |
to the extent provided for in The
act of congress entitled Gan act
10 provide for allotment of land !

There need be no doubt Of the product

produced 20 TO 30 bushels OF wheat, and 40

have been raised by farfflers living on In

in this superb climate will ever be known
again. The climate is ali that can be desip-
ed, being a happy medium between the hot
climate of Texas and the cold climate OF
Kansas or Missouri The days are never ex-
ecssiyely hot, nor the winter excessively
cold. In summerddays the mercury seldom
goes above hundred, while the nights arc
invariably cool. In winter the mercury
seldom goes below zero, aud then for only

ing streams Of water il found by digging at
depths Of twenty 10 thirty feet. All the
streams bear a more or ess fringe OF tim
Der. while large areas are covered with a

I0Os, the above reservation Is to be opened

reservation is another known as the Wichita
reservation, which may be included at the
same time, but this i not yet known. The
law opening the reservation, provides that
the allotments shall be made in from three
to six months, and makes it lhe duty of the
President to issue proclamation opening
the country within six months after the al
Iotments are made 1t is not likely that
the President will take the six months, and
aud he may issue his proclamation immedi-
efely after the allotments are made. Thus
