WELL wATERED.

The lands outside OF the mountains are
undulatIng prairie, well watered with liy-
ing streams OF water is found by digging at
depths Of twenty to thirty feet. All the
streams bear more or ess fringe of tim
Der. while large areas are covered with
growth Of mesquite trees, timber which
make good fence posts and Is excellent
fuel. Other sections and some streams bear
a growth Of timber large enough to saw into
lumber. Any or all Of these timber lands
are productive, and will make fne farms.
By an act of congress approved June .,
1900, the above reservation Is to be opened
10 settlement. On the north side Of this
reservation l. another known as the Wichita
reservation, which may be included at the
same time, but this Is not yet known. The
law opening the reservation, provides that
the allotments shall be made In from three
to six months, and makes it ahe duty OF the
President to issue . proclamation opening
the country within six months after the al
lotments are made II il not likely that
the President will take the six moaths, and
aud he may issue his proclamation immedi-
etely after the allotments are made. Thus
1t may be seen the lands may be open at any
time from the early spring to summer OF
next year,

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
sllotments 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 sllottees, respective
| ly. for the period of twenty-five
years, in the time and manner aud
to the extent provided for in the
act of congress entitled IAN act
TO provide for allotment of land
in severalty to Indians on the var
ious reservations, and to extend
the protection of the laws of the
United States and Territories
over the Indians and for other
purposes" approved February
2S. 1891.
"And at the expirations of said
period of 25 years the titles there
to shall be conveyed in fee simple
to the allotees or the heir, free
from all incuberances.
