INDIANS TO LEASE LANDS.
Ranchers WI! Pay One Dollar Per
Head Per Annun,.

Rapid City, S. D., Nov. 29.-Inspec.
tor Jenkins has succeeded in closing a
deal with the reservation Indians in
which they agree, by majority vote,
to lease all the reservation lands that
have not been allotted to the ranchers.
By this agreement the ranchers are
to pay into the Indian treasury 81 per
head per anun, and all Indians, half
breeds or squawmen who own over 100
head of stock must pay an equal
amount for all stock over 100. This
money all goes into the treasury and,
when 1t is collected, will be appor-
toned to the individual Indians, each
receiving his share. = u.
: The limit is placed at 100000 head
of cattle, which means 100000 for the
Indians. The new treaty will go into
effect Jan. l, 1902. and as soon as con-
tracts are made to the amount OF 10O,-
900 head Of cattle the, bids will be
closed. The treaty Moyides only for
pasturage on the rdhd that has; not
been allotted, but the Indians them
selves must Keep the cattle from tres
passing on their own individual land.

TELEGRAPHIC MARKET LETTER

Chicago. Nov. 29.-Wheat: Cables
came 3s@1ad higher today and our
market opened fractionally higher
than yesterday. There was some
weakness in early trading, but con-
siderable strength soon developed and
the market advanced easily. This in
face OF the large receipts is Indicative
of higher prices to a certainty. We
don't want to be over confident but
surely the action of the market of late
shows clearly that there is a decided
strong undertone, and we should see
a good gain in wheat. Argentine
shipments are practically nothing and
the tone of the cables both for spot
and future is so strong we are going
to make the foreigners pay us some
fancy prices for our wheat ST. Louis
is up 1 cent today on the early trad
ing and there has been no reaction.
Shortly after, II a. m. wheat took quite
a boom and sold ait 73c for May when
there was some realizing and it? re-
ceded Nc. 1t gained the recession
soon again and On another squirt sold
73ssc.
Corn is strong again and there is no
sign of collapse of the deal, which
shows every Indication of putting it
malch higher. Corn made a new high
point today selling at G5%c for May
and held the advance well. 3
Oats also are higher and as they
seem to be married to corn they are
enjoying their honeymoon with all ex-
penses paid by their advancing prices
Provisions were strong, opening 15-
@20c higher tbs morning and ruled
strong all the session.

A. r. Banquet.
Chicago, Nov. 2S.-General Arthur
Macarthur, former commander of the
; United States forces in the Philippine
Islands, was the principal speaker at
the campfire held in Memorial hall.
In his address, General Macarthur
said the war in the Philippines is one
that insured civilizing expansion and
the advancement of humanity. --e
said in part:
ut tannct be said that the Unitei
States ever waged an unjust war. Ev-
cry aspiration for liberty and self-gov-
eminent was involved in the struggle
between the North and the South in
1861.
But great issues still face US. One
of the most important is now being
carried out in the Philippine islands.
The expansion Of civilization began
when the Caucasian race swept over
Europe. 1t continued when the pill
grim fathers sailed to the new world.
1t continues today in the islands OF tho
Eastern seas. The laws of civilized
expansion, still acting, have now fore
ed the Anglo-Saxon race to the West
so far that the renovating and re-
claiming flood has almost encircled
the earth ..s<&,

sion which bears on its crest the fiag

MUST PROCEED SLOWLY.
Senator Quarles Discusses the Indian
Question With the President.

Washington, Nov. Ex-senator
Quarles of Wisconsin, who is chair
man of the committee on Indian affairs
and who made tour of the Indian
reservations last summer with Indian
Commissioner Jones, during the day
talked to the president about the In
dian question generally. He agrees
with Commissioner Jones in the be-
lief that to make the Indian self-sup-
porting should be the aim of the gov
eminent and that it's attainment would
solve the problem. Progress to that
end he says, must proceed slowly In
a genral way he thinks the first steps
must be the breaking up of tribal re-
lations, the allotment of the lands in
severalty and the admission of the In
dian youth to public schools The In
dian eventually should become a citi-
zen.
