The Gregory County strip Of Indian
Ground.

Indian Inspector McLaughlins treaty
recently negotiated with the Rosebud
Sioux, for the cession of portion OF
their reservation in Gregory county,
has been received at the interior de-
partment. The lands to be turned over
to the federal government embrace
something like 100000 acres, and the
treaty provides that the Indians shall
be paid 81 100000, or about $3.50 per acre.
The treaty further provides that a
small portion of the aggregate. about
100000, shall be expended for agricult-
ural implements and other necessaries
for the use of the tribe, the balance TO
b, DEF csited with other tribal funds In
the treasury, to draw per cent inter-
est, to be paid in semi-annual INSTALL
ments. .
The treaty must be approved by the
secretary OF the interior and ratified By
congress before it car become effective.
There is little doubt that this will be
done, as Senator Gamble and Repre-
>ntative Burke have already paved the
way for its acceptance by the Indian
committees of the house and senate.
1t is probable that the South Dakota
delegation will also enceavor to have
this land made subject to entry, under
the free homes act. and to have ths
money due the Indians paid from the
federal treasury. The land is said to
be extremely fertile, and will undoubt-
eddy be in demand when it is thrown
open to settlement
Inspector Mclaughlin is now on
leave Of absence. at the conclusion OF
which he will go to Devils Lake, N. D.,
to negotiate treaty with that tribe for
the cession of some of their lands. 1t
is expected he will go to Minnesota lat
er to negotiate treaty with the Red
Lake Indians for the cession Of por-
ton of their reservation, which has
been urged by Representative Eddy for
some months.

NO PROTECTION.
Ynnkton County Records Exuo.ea
to Fire.

A movement for the building Of a
new court house for Yankton Is likely
to result from the recent burning OF tho
court house at Alexandria. Hanson
county. The present structure is old.
and affords practically no protection for
the records in the various offices. In
the Office of the clerk of courts the res
ords are all stored away in wooden
cases, among which are the papers in
over 600 administration and guardian
ship cases, involving more than 81, 000,-
600. In the auditors Office the condi-
lions are little better, the office con-
tanning g very old and enthusiastically
safe capable of holding less than one
half of the records. The registers Of
tice has a so-called fire-proof vault, but
1T is questionable whether 1t would
stand fire. Two years ago the ques-
ton of building a fire-proof vault was
before the voters, but was defeated by
decisive majority: but the recent dis
aster to Hanson county has again
brought the question 10 the front, and
1t is not likely that the agitation will
cease until an entirely new court house
lone in keeping with the importance Of
the city and county, Is constructed.

From an Odd Position.

From an Odd Position.
The supreme court has at last grant
ed the application of s. w. Howard Of
Gettysburg for admission to practice in
this state. Howard has been trying for
the past year to get on the records as a
practicing attorney, and has been COM
PEELED to wait. He Is the only man who
has ever come into the supreme court
with case to prove that he was not an
attorney under the laws of the state.
and, after proving it, he then attempted
to get on the records as an attorney.
His peculiar position came from an APP
plication for his disbarment, and he
made the plea that the supreme court
could not disbar him, for the reason
that he had never been an admitted at
torney under Dakota laws. He. then
found himself in another predicament,
as he was attempting to hold the posi-
tion Of states attorney of Potter coun-
ty. after making his plea In the court,
and was removed by the county COM
missioners. who appointed a successor.
Between his fight against disbarment
and the one to secure the salary as
states attorney, he has been busy for
several years, and has, incidentally.
been pushing his application for admis-
sion during the same time.
The calls for permanent school funds
during the past week have amounted to
$3,775. Butte county took $2,275 Of this;
Edmunds county took $1,000: Deuel.
county $500.
