Much Interest Manifested.

The indications are that when
the lands Of the various Indian
reservations are thrown open for
settlement on Nov. 10 there will
be fifty applicants for every piece
of land according to newspaper
opinions from various sections of
thestate. Despite thefactthatthe
lands are not the best for agricul-
tural purposes they are attract
ing the widest interest. Many
of the filings will be made hap
hazard before the land has been
seen. Those who contemplate
purchasing under the provisions
of the homestead act in many
cases are expected to forfeit their
rights after the land has been
visited. The department has
done everything possible to en-
tighten the public on the charac-
ter Of the lands which are to be
opened but the greatest interest
is manifested in the numerous
inquiries which are daily received
at all the land offices.

A CONFERENCE
Head Chief from the Reservation
Calls on Congressman
Stevenson.

Saturday evening Chief Keden-
adm, head chief of the Indians on
the Red Lake reservation, and a
delegation of Indian notables
called on Congressman Steiner
son for a pipe Of peace and big
council. The audience was
granted BY the congressman
from the Ninth district, and
through an interpreter the chief
told Mr.. Stevenson his troubles.
The list=off. gri evances was long,
and referred mostly to the open
ing of the reservation to settle
ment. The two objections to the
recent billintroduced by Senator
Clapp was the taking Of sections
16 and 36 and the participation of
the Pembina Indians in the pro-
ceeds Of the sale. The chief as
sured Mr..s5teenerson if he could
geta bill through congress which
would allow them pay for those
sections and bar the Pembina In
dams from the deal, it would be
sanctioned by the red men, and
he alleged that he spoke for all
the chiefson the reservation. Mr..
Stevenson promised to-intro-
duce such bill, and the big con
ference ended with the chief pre-
senting him with a big pipe Of
peace.

David Quinn anG his wife,
Annie Mackey, who were former
we'll known characters of the
town in Bemidji, were yesterday
sentenced to terms Of seven and
eight years respectively in the
state penitentiary at Waupon,
Wis, by the judge of the district
court at Ashland, upon conviction
of a charge Of highway robbery.
The Quinns were inmates of a
disreputable resort at Odanah,
after they let this city, which
they were compelled to leave by
the police, and Mrs. Quinn, or
Annie Mackey, induced a woman
inmate Of the place to accompany
her into an alley one night, where
she was slugged and robbed by
Quinn. The couple were arrest
ed at Duluth and taken to Ash
land for trial and fought the
charge to the end. Evidence as
to their guilt was conclusive,
however, and they will be taken
to the Wisconsin penitentiarY to-
day.

ment which has given rise to in
convenience in the movement of
the municipal mill frequently Of
late. Organization talk has been
rife for some time past. Last
spring a petition for organization
under the law of 1894 was. started
but was later dropped for the
reason that it would necessitate
a special election and it was held
that the matter could rest for a
time and be substituted at the
spring election, and that this
plan would result in the curtail-
ment Of expense.
Last week a numbe Of citizens
circulated a petition asking for
the appointment of a charter
commission and Saturday it was
forwarded to Judge MeGlenna
han at Brainerd, naming the
charter commission Of fifteen and
asking for it's appointment in ac-
cordance with the provisions of
the "Home Rule" act which pro
vides that cities of 5000 and over
may draft their own charters.
The charter commission is to be
composed Of fifteen freeholders
who have been residents of the
city for not less than five years.
This morning another petition
has been started which has the
sanction of the city council, was
draughted by City Attorney
Russell and provides for the
organization Of the city under the
general law of 1894, governing
the organization of cities. This
law provides that upon the pres
entation of petition signed by
thirds of the legal voters Of
any village Of more than 1000 in
habitants to the Judge Of probate
he shall order an election of city
officers under the provisions of
the law to occur not sooner than
thirty days and not later than
sixty days after the petition has
been filed with him. e
The fact that there are two
movements on foot to organize
the city under two different acts
has given rise to some confusion
and the merits and dement's Of
the plan are up for discussion as
a natural result. 1t is held that
! the ''Home Rule" plan is the best
by those who are working for
organization under it's provisions
for the reason that there are
local contingencies IN almost
every town that can better be
covered by a charter draughted
with an especial regard to the
needs and requirements of a
local situation than by a general
law which it is said cannot be so
comprehensive protective.
On the other hand the general
law Of 1894 is held to be the
logical plan of organization for
the reason that it is SAID to be
the cheapest and most expedi-
tious. Under its provisions the
