AT PINE RIDGE.

Indian Agent Brennan S many
friends here will be more than pleas
ed to know of the excellent manner
in which he is disharging his duties
at Pine Ridge. Tom Sweeney went
down last Saturday and remained
over With Papa Brennan as the
Indians call him now, until Monday.
The improvements that have been
made at the Ridge since Mr.. Bren-
nan assumed charge. are little less
than remarkable. He has been put
ting in system of irrigation that,
when finished, will make that sec
ton bloom like a rose. The magni-
tude of the work may be judged
when it requires five mile ditch to
carry the waters of Clay creek to
the table land. They have raised
nearly all the vegetables used at the
Catholic mission which accommodates
some two hundred and fifty persons.
This work is by no means all that
has been going on since Mr.. Bren-
nan became chief" He has been
grading down the bluffs, building a
fine road with bitches on each
side, repairing and building bridges.
and reducing the grades. All this
work, it must be remembered, is
done by the Indians themselves.
They receive free rations only three
months in the year. During the
other nine months they must earn
their Fay which is $l.25 a day and
Mr.. Sweeney says any one who
thinks an Inaian wont work, should
see what is being done at Pine
Ridge.
Agent Brennan buys all his wood
from the Indians and the Indians
haul all the freight that is brought
in.
Mr.. Brennan. it will be remem-
bered, knows the value of labor in
making good and useful citizens and
that is just what he is doing with
those Indians. He maintains a
proper degree of discipline which is
potent factor in theiwork. Before
he took charge al Indian offender
could buy himself out of prison.
Now when an Indian is sentenced
for some offence, he must serve bis
time. The result is rich and poor
are on an equal footing. Mr.. Bren
nan has his court right at the
agency which makes an imme nse
saving in time and expense. Three
judges find enough at the agency tt
keep them fairly busy.

gave him the name themselves and
