THE ROSEBUD INDIAN RESERVATION
TO BE OPENED FOR SETTLEMENT.

A great boom has sprung up in Bone
steel, to which point the Northwest
ern Line is building. Last fall there
were fifty settlers there. To-day there
is town of 300. Ninety days from now
there will be 5000. Five real estate
offices have opened, and town lots
are selling at from $500 to $500 each.
The Reservation will probably be
opened by lottery plan, such as was
made use of in Oklahoma. Fifty thou
sand people are expected to take part
in the drawing for the land.
To enter a homestead of 100 acres
one must be the head of family or
have attained the age of twenty-one
years; a citizen of the United States
or one who has filed his declaration to
become such. To establish title to
the land, residence must be maintained
thereon, improving and cultivating the
land continuously for five years.
With the completion of the North
Western Nine from Verdigre to the
Reservation boundary at Bonesteel,
there will, without doubt, be tremen-
dous influx of homesteaders as soon as
the Presidents proclamation sets a
date for the opening Interest in the
matter in Nebraska is intense.

Kills the Measure.

Washington, June 1.-THE house
on Tuesday defeated the bill to trans
fer certain forest reserves to the ag-
ricultural department and to author
ize the president to establish game
and fish preserves. It's death was ac'
complished by striking out the en-
acting clause. The motion was made
by Mr.. Cannon, and was carried by
100 to 70. He claimed that the bill
would greatly increase the cost Of
administering forest reserves, and
declared that the estimated receipts
of the next fiscal year already were
exceeded by the appropriations up To
the present time by over $51,o00,O00.

The land in question lies between the
