GAS AT VERMlLLICN,
Experts Claim Natural Gas, Coal and
Petroleum Abound Beneath City.

Vermillion, S. d. Nov Tt would
be hard to make the citizens mere be-
lieVe that few weeks work in sink
ing q hole down into The earth Il depth
Of fOm 700 to l,200 feet would be the
means of securing good flow of nat
ural gas. Yet several experts in times
past have said as much, and their
statements are sustained by Professor
Duke H. BaShfO-d OF Sioux City, who
was here last Week on a vacation trip,
and took occasion to look into condi-
tons somewhat. Professor Bashford
not only believes there is plenty of gas,
but untold quantities of coal and Pc
trOleum.
Although u we'll at the university was
sunk to depth of LOCO feet or more,
no signs OF gas We're apparent-not
even flow of water could be secured.
This is easily explained by those who
claim to know their business. The
place to find gas is not on the bluffs,
but rather on the Missouri river bot
tom, TO which, it is said, underlying
strata slopes and forms basin or res
eryoir, where this product is sure to
accumulate.
In the opinion of Professor Bashford
all that is necessary to do is to put
machinery on the ground and sink a
well. He is sure that q venture of this
kind would prove successful.

WAR NEXT SPRING.
Bulgarian Diplomatic Agent Says 1t Is
Certainty.

London, Nov 5.--M. Tzokoff, the new
Bulgarian diplomatic agent, who has
Just arrived here, regards war between
Turkey and Bulgaria as being prac-
tically inevitable the incoming spring.
In an outspoken interview he declares
there is not the slightest real i'm
provement in the situation in Mace
Gonia; that the AustrO-Russlan reform
scheme is futile, and that in conse-
ouence Of the treatment Of Bulgarians
in Macedonia, and the strain on the
principality's resources arising from
the necessity of supporting 100000 ref
ugees in Bulgaria, he declares trade
with Bulgaria has absolutely ceased
and that European banks nave stopped
the credit Of the Bulgarian people.
"This economic crisis" the agent
continues, will be hundredfold worse
next year, and in itself must provoke
war. All Bulgarians agree that itA.is
better to have a few weeks war with
Turkey, after which formal relations
will be resumed, than prolongation OF
the present strain on Bulgaria's re-
sources"

SOUTH DAKOTA MEASURES,
Mr.. Burke Presents New Bill to Oper
Rosebud Lands

| Washington, Nov. u.-Representative
Burke introduced several bills Of interest
to South Dakota. The first provides for
opening 416,000 acres in Gregory county.
The bill is the same that was introduced
| by Mr.. Burke last session after Mr.. Can
non had prevented passage of the original
bill ratifying the agreement of 1901, except
that it provides that it shall go into effect
Immediately upon passage, and without
acceptance of the Indians. In providing
for non-acceptance by the Indians the bill
follows the supreme court decision in the
case Of Lone Wolf, in which it was held
that congress had the right to dispose of
Indian lands, the Indians being regarded
as wards of the government
Another bill provides for the restora ton
of annuities to the Santee Sioux arising
| under the treaty of 1897 Also a bill to
ratify an agreement with the Lower Brule
Indians cedlng portion of their reserva-
ton.
new bill by Mr.. Burke provides for
judication and payment of claims of
-tizens of South Dakota for Indian depre-
dations. The bill providing for the ratifi-
cation of an agreement with the Yankton
Sioux for the sale Of the Pipestone quar-
ries in Minnesota was also presented by
Mr.. Burke. 1t provides for a payment of
$lOo,COO to the Indians for these quarries.
The five per cent BILL" which is in
tended to pay to the state 5 per cent, OF
the proceeds of sales of Indian lands or
bounty warrant lands, etc, was ser.t to
the committee on public lands.
Two public building bills were among
those introduced-one fo- Huron end one
for Watertown each TO cost $3.50
A bill which will secure for the state
many thousands of acres of lands which it
would not otherwise get provides that the
state shall have the right to select in
demnity and other lands within the limits
OF the ceded portion of the Great Sioux
reservation west of the Missouri river.
Mr.. Burke also introduced several pen,
sion and other private bills.

Aberdeen, S. D, Nov 1O.-Judge Nc
Coy has given his decision in the salary

county, J. II, Hauser. and he decides
that 50 far as Hauser is concerned the
law is unconstitutional, the constitu-
ton providing that salaries may not
be increased or decreased during the
term Of office Of any official. Hauser
applied to the county commissioners
FOR an increase of salary allowance on
the ground that the population of the
county is 10000 or more. The board
refused TO give an increase, and he then
asked the circuit court for 4 manda-
mus to compel the commissioners to
pay the higher amount. To this the
commissioners. through the states at
toruey, demuITed. on the ground of UNI
-o4lstitutlonafty of the law in this

sustGins the demurrer. There are sew
