For the Eagle.
THE sUNFLowER CROWNED.


q will not have the mad CIytie
Whose head is turned by the sun"
Thus sang the gentle poet, Hood,
Before his earthly race was run.
With him l do not nearly agree,
Though perhaps he was sage,
For the sunfcWer calmly speaks 70 me
OF youth Just tempered with age.
This fair gem is surpassed in looks
By beauties Of lesser size.
But towers DER many rival
Reaching upward toward the skies
The sunh6wer does not creep nor hide
Like the violet when she can;
But stands about the cottage side.
Close around the haunts of man.
She owns not beauty alone
But and habits of toll
Feeding birds and door-yard fowls
And shading the fruitful soil
think will have the Cytie,
Though her beauty is quite Outd0ne.
For her ways remind of peaceful hours,
When the daily bread is won.
And if rose lily or pea
Would envy this humble queen,
And recall Maud Muller's fate
With its souuwful might have been"
She should think the freedom
OF country over city and town,
And know that all the noble

Bonesteel, s. D., March 1S.-At a regu-
lar meeting Of the Bonesteel Commercial
club letters were read from the entire
South Dakota congressional delegation,
Congressman Cannon of Illinois, Gros-
venor of Ohio and others, stating that
the Rosebud treaty bill, which failed to,
pass the house, owing to the fili!ouSter by
the democrats. will be taken up without
fail in the early days Of the coming con-
gress and passed before Christmas. This
assures the opening of 416.00O acres Of
fertile prairie land in the western part of
Gregory county, S. D. Within ninety
days after the passage Of this BILL the
presidents proclamation will be issued
and the drawing take place and before the
first day of June. 1904, 1900 quarter sec
tions will be settled upon by at least that
number Of thrifty progressive farmers.
The letters state that arrangements
have been made to have United States
Indian Inspector Mclaughlin visit the
Rosebud Indians as soon as spring opens
for the purpose Of securing their approval
to the new bill. This will be accomplished
in thirty days. as the Indians are anxious
to see the matter go through as soon as
possible, as they derive no revenue what
ever from the land under present condi-
tions.
There is no doubt that this land will
be thrown open early in 1904, therefore
any one who contempla,tes securing a
home on this magnificent tract will be
wise to visit it the present summer
