SOUTH DAKOTA IN CONGRESS.
Representatives Get About What They
Want.-Indians Well Provided For.

Want.-Indians Well Provided For.
A Washington Special of Jan. %
says: South Dakota was largely in
evidence today in the house. The In
dian appropriation bill was under con-
stderation. Representative Burke, who
is member of the Indian committee,
was charged with the duty of securing
additional appropriations for the sever
al Indian schools in the state, and he
met the requirements with credit to
himself and to his state. Throughout
the day he watched the bill like q
hawk, and always at his right hand
was representative Martin, who was
ready to jump into the arena of debate
il need be in the interest of the Black
Hills.
For the school at Chamberlain sl6,-
600 was added above the amount car
ried in the bill as reported from the
committee, in order to meet the new
legislation increasing the capacity of
keschool.
I For Pierre $4,000 was added along
lsimilar lines, while $4,000 was added
for Rapid City for the purpose of erect
ing new buildings. But the house did
not Npp here. It inserted an item in
to the bill appropriating s11 600 for the
purchase of an irrigated farm near the
school buildings and increased the
agents salary to 81 600
Representative Martin who was vi
tally interested in this legislation,
stated today that the farm would be
operated on industrial lines; that the
Indian pupils would be taught practi.
cal farming, truck raising and stock
raising, so that when they left the
school they would be practically fitted
to make their own living.
~ am impressed with the splendid
effect the education OF Indian youth is
having in our state," said he. "The
new generation of Indians is becoming
industrious. They are working on ou,
railroads and giving good satisfaction
The superintendent of the EIkhorn
told me that he employed number OF
Indians on his road last summer, and
they we're quite adaptable. I conf.
IDENTIFY look forwaEd to the Indian
question solving itsslf, SO far, at least
as our state is concerned"
Mr.. Martin had q conference with
M Busson, who has been mercilessly
fighting the big appropriations the bill
carries, in which the South Dakotan
told the Ohio member that the items
for Rapid City we're not only just, but
they were positively necessary, and on
this assertion no opposition was made
to the amendment.-Sio City Journ-

IT is GREAT IF TRUE
Reported Alliance of Father Kruger, the
Great Healer. and Miss Drexel, the
PhilanthrOpist.

ureat neaser, and Miss Drexel, the
Philanthropist.
There have been numerous and var
ious sorts of stories during the past
few years about what was possibly 60
ing to be done at Cascade Springs, SO
that there has been hope all the time
that something would come of all the
the talk. The latest is from q CORES.
pondent Eof the Philadelphia North
American, who says that Father John
Kruger, Catholic priest of the little
prairie town of Epiphany, s. D., who
has made thousands of almost miracu-
lous cures in the.last three years, has
joined hands with Miss Catherine
Drexel of Philadelphia, known to the
Catholic world as Mother Catherin,
and will move to Cascade Springs. in
the Black Hills.
He intends to continue his work of
saving mems bodies despite the fact
that Bishop O'Gorman of South Dako-
ia took his parish away from him.
Father Kruger now has large es.
tablishment at Epiphany, consisting of
hospitals and hotels, and all through
the spring, summer and autumn sick
persons by the thousands go to him to
be cured.
The Cascade Springs belong to Fa-
ther James Heidegger, a Catholic
priest of Vermillion, S. D., who bought
them for the purpose of establishing
great Catholic hospital and sanitari-
um and to establish lace factories and
with the profits from these various
businesses to educate the Indian chill
dren. With Father Heidagger Mother
Catherin is interested. Father Krue-
ger will now, it is said, take charge of
the health department. of the Cascade
establishment, SO that they may have
place where all through the year the
sick may come and be cured.
Three years ago Father Kruger first
began to attract attention in the east
ern part of South Dakota by his SEEM
ingly miraculous cures. His fame
spread rapidly.
In his ministrations to the sick the
father gives medicine. All who are
cured, however, say it is the personal
power of the priest that did it.
When Bishop O'Gorman removed
Father Krueger from his position as
parish priest on the ground that he
was too busy to attend the spiritual
needs Of his people, he appealed to
Rome. The decision of the vatican
sustaining Bishop O'Gorman was re.
ceived last summer, and Father Krue-
ger bowed bis head, but at once begar,
planning an extension of his humane
work.
1t is said now that Mother Catherine
is willing to advance him what money
he requires to put his progressive plans
into effect. The priest will transfer
his work to the Black Hills this spring
Father Krueger, who has cured
thousands by faith and love, will cure
thousands more by faith and love and
the beautiful surroundings of Cascade
Springs, with the water and wonderful
climate to help him. For there the
sun shines 800 days in the year.

BIG PROBLEM FOR LAWMAKERS.

While the orators of the legislature
are portraying the vices that need pro-
hibition. the beauties of the anemone
which modestly aspires to be state
flower, and the reforms which are try
ing to break into the republican corral
and ''rope" the choicest animals for
riding, there is little problem in
mathematics which is claiming the at
tention of those of the financiers who
are not hustling for special or general
appropriations. The state at large will
not be lacking in interest toward q
problem which aims to have one dol
lar do the work of two and have little
left for pin money on the side. The
board of regents of education has re.
commended special and general ap-
propriations amounting to e723,OOO.
The board Of charities and corrections
has recommended special and general
appropriations:amounting to $685., 200

A New Railroad Project.

Attorney NJ. 0 Reed was called to
Portland last week to consult with Pres
ident MOhler of the 0. X. & n. railroad
regarding the project of building a road
from huntington down Snake river to
Lewiston. Mr.. Reed has had the plan
IN hand for a number of months and
has succeeded in interesting capitalists in
the project. President MOhler has now
taken an interest in the enterprise and
has sent Mr.. Reed to New York for the
purpose OF completing the arrangements.
MIR. Reed left the latter part OF last week
for New York city. 1t is understood
that enough traffic has been guaranteed
the promoters of the enterprise to war
rant them in going ahead with the con-
struction. This new road will open up
vast mining country and pass over
the property owned by the Reed Mining
Syndicate in the Seven Devils country.
1t is understood that these mines are
now only awaiting transportation facili-
ties in order to become producers. The
road from Huntington to Lewiston will
open up large country, parts of which
give promise OF being one of the richest
mining regions in the northwest.

Crops Looking Well.

A report from Hay says that the
weather in that part OF the county is
cool and that they have enjoyed three
good rains the past month. Crops of
every character are looking good and a
conservative estimate OF the yield OF
wheat in that section is to the effect that
they expect about 90 per cent as large
a yield this year as was enjoyed last.
Large shipments of cattle have been
made from that point during the past
week, and as high as four cents per pound
was paid. 1t is estimated that about
1900 acres of sod has been broken in
that vicinity this spring. From other
sections OF the county come the same en-
couraging reports. The rains OF the
past month, together with the cool grow
ing weather are bringing the wheat out
in good shape. All admit that the crop
will be shorter this year than usual, but
the belief is current that the general
average will be close to 80 per cent of an
ordinary yield.
