We appreciated very much
mayor Pope's invitation to attend

we were not able to be on hand.

declared that he would like to

Christ and proclaim his truths
without jugglery," Governor Ay-

INDIANS AND AGRICULTURE,

What the Census Returns Show Re.
garding Agriculture Among Indians.
A recent census bulletin gives some
interesting details of agriculture on
the Indian reservations of North Da-
kota, as follows:
North Dakota contains four Indian
reservations: Devils Lake, Fort Ber.

tain. The larger portion of Standing
Rock reserve lies in South Dakota, but
as the agency is located in North Da-
kota, the reservation was reported in
that state. Agriculture is very uncer-
tain in those reserves, on account Of
the hot winds and irregularity of rain
during the summer months. The
census year, however, was favorable,
and their crops were raised on all the
land cultivated. The lsnd, in general,
is best adapted to stock raising, and
this occupation is receiving much at
tention, especially on the Fort Ber-
thold and Standing Rock reservations,
which have extensive ranges and hay
lands
With the exception of the Turtle
Mountain, the Chippewa and the Ari-
kara of Fort Berthold, these North Da-
kota Indians are all of Siouxian stock.

Devils Lake Reservation.

Devils Lake reservation, comprising
an area of 1904 square miles, is stu.
ated in the northeastern part of the
state. The Indians on this reserva-
ton are engaged principally in stock
raising, the upland prairies furnish
ing the very best of facilities for that
industry. The land is high and roll
ing, and the soil is light, sandy or
gravelly loan, which dries out very
rapidly. Failures of crops from dry
weather have been so frequent in re-
cent years that few of the Indians cul-
tivate as extensively as they would if
they had greater assurance of har-
vest.
The population Of the reservation,
June /, 1900, was 1858, of whom 100
were farm operators, cultivating from
twenty to eighty acres each.
Flax is the principal crop, closely
followed by wheat, while oats, barley
and corn are raised to some extent.
Wild grass furnishes the entire crop
of hay, which is generally larger than
the Indians can manage with the i'm
Elements at hand. Most farmers Gull
tivate small areas of potatoes, and a
number also raise dry beans and other
garden vegetables. Few of them have
any cattle and their horses are Indian
pony stock, too small to run the gang
plows and other heavy machinery re-
quired for prairie farming. A few own
dairy COWS, swine and chickens. -

Washington, Oct. 12.-The encamp-
nent of the Grand Army of the Re.
public for 1902 came to a close yes
terday, although a few social gather
ings may assemble to-day. San Fran
cisco was chosen as the next place of
meeting and the election of officers,
begun Thursday, was completed. Res
olutions were adopted by the encamp-
ment, having in view the liberal treat
ment of veterans in the matters of pub
lie office and pensions. The kindred
bodies to the parent organization also
brought their several conventions to q
close, the Sons of Veterans, Woman's
Relief Corps and other bodies choosing
officers for the ensuing year.
The Union Veterans union had q de.
cidedly lively day and the final result
was a split in the organization. The
first row was over question of eligi-
bility to membership. A resolution
was adopted that let down the bars
too much to suit some Of the state del
egations with large membership in
the order. This caused ill feeling.
Later the friction in the union devel-
oped rapidly in consequence of COM
mittee of the order which had been in
vestigat;ng the character and conduct
of Commander-in-Chi Dyrenforth
adopting q report recommending the
suspension of the commander-in-chief.
Gen. Dyrenforth was presiding over
the convention when the committee
endeavored to report. He refused to
recognize it or to surrender his Office
to the next ranking officer of the Or
der. Turbulent scenes followed, until
finally a large element of the organiza-
ton withdrew, those remaining, elect
ing Gen. .Dyrenforth and the seceders
taking steps to form new union.

Panama, Colombia, Oct. IA con-
ference between tho government rep
resentative and Rear Admiral Casey
took place yesterday. The admiral
subsequently said the object of the
conference was to see It the govern
mont and the revolutionists could
come to some agreement or arrange
the basis for such agreement.
He could not say much on the sub
icct for he had only one side of the
question. He considered, however,
that the terms offered in President
Harouin's amnesty decree were liberal.
His only idea in comforting with the
authorities here was to end the strife,
which he considered unpatriotic, for it
not only ruins the country but delays
the steps being taken looking to the
completion Of the canal. He did not
soc from the arguments he had heard
that there was much difference In the
principles
Upheld by Either
of the Colombian parties, except in
matters relative to the church.
Admiral Casey is studying the terms
which the government offered and in
a day or two will send a communica
ton to Gen. Herrera, the revolutionary
commander, expressing his views on
the situation, and will propose that
the general hold conference with
Gen. Salazar, the government COM
nander
Admiral Casey received last Satur-
day Gen. Herrera's answer to Com
mander McLean's communication no.
tifying him that the ULited States mad
assumed control of the railroad line,
but he would not divulge the contents
of the letter, a copy of which he sent
to Washington. According to report
Gen. Herrera's note is couched in very
strong and offensive language.
Regarding his refusal to allow the
Colombian government to transport
troops on the railroad, the admiral
said the United States had taken this
action in order to maintain free tran
sit.
Must Not Bombard Panama.
1t is not known how long the United
States forces will prevent the govern
ment from using the trains to trans
port troops, but it is admitted that
Admiral Casey will not allow Gen.
Herrera to lombard Panama, and it
is asserted that if the revolutionary
gunboat Padilla comes within limit
assigned by the American admiral the
latter will sink her. On the other
hand, he will not permit the govern
ment gunboats to provoke the Padilla
into venturing within the limit re-
ferred to.

COLOMBIA KICKS.
Orders of Admiral Casey Probably
Have Been Misunderstood.


Washington, Oct. IL. - The Colon
bian government, on complaint of Gen.
Salazar, in command of the forces on
the isthmus, has demonstrated with
the United States minister at Bogota
respecting Admiral Casey's reported
refusal to allow troops and munitions
of war to cross the isthmus. The Co.
lcmbian government said it did not
see how it could suppress the rebellion
if it we're not allowed to move troops
freely in it's own territory.
The officials here are confident that
Admiral Casey's order has been mis-
understood. They feel sure that if he
stopped the transfer of Colombian
troops or war munitions it was only
for some temporary reason. The Col
ombian government has been assured
1E courteous manner that the United
States government has no intention
of treEching on Colombian sovereign
ty, which is guaranteed by special
treaty provision.

nations.
In the examination for county GER
tifcates, held Aug. 1890, there were
$40 applicants. The department of
public instruction has completed the
markings of the papers. with the fol-
lowing results: First-grade certifi-
Gates, II; second-grade. 242; third
grade, 1852; failures, $50.
In the four examinations of last
year, beginning with August, 1901,
when the present certifcation law
went into effect, there were 1870 appli-
cants, with the following results:
First-grade certificates, 4S; second
grade, 1928; third-grade, 643; failures,
AL.
The number of applicants for certi-
ficates has not been large at any time
Several causes have led to this. First
and most important, the greater oppor-
tunities in these prosperous years for
teachers to better their positions by
entering other fields of labor. Again.
no doubt, many, feeling their deficien-
cies, have not cared to meet the new
method of examination. The result is
a scarcity of teachers in most of the
counties. Many new schools have
been established in the last two years.
and teachers salaries have been in
creased in many counties to CORE
spond with the increase in all other
lines. Teachers have been attracted
to the state from all parts of the North
! west, and even from the Middle and
Eastern states. The department is re-
ceiving. almost daily. applications for.
permits to teach; but as the matter Of
permits rests entirely with county SUI
perintendents, the applicants are re-
ferred to counties where their services
are in demand. Probably more teach
ers have started to work this year on
permits than ever before; and it will
continue to be necessary for county
f superintendent to issue permits until.
the conditions SO adjust themselves
that the supply Of teachers equals the
demand.
