illusions which the subcommittee had

.FlXIHG THE TINE OF OPENING
Quotations From the Law
Setting Forth the Time
For Opening KioWa
Reservation.

We are often asked when will
the Kiowa and Comanche reser-
walton 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 lsnd
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.
ly. for the period of twenty-five
years, in the time and manner aud
