ONE OF AMERICAS
BIG INSURANCE COMPANIES


The Prudential Insurance company
OF America confines its operations
within the boundaries of the United
States, contrary to the practice of mos
big American companies, which have
large business abroad. That 1t is moi
necessary to go abroad in order to be
eminently successful is abundantly
clear from the record of the Prudential
especially that for the year 1903. the
figures for which have Just been pub:
lished.
The Prudential wrote and placed
during the last year no less than $685..
000. 900 new life insurance, an amount
which has I've been equaled by any
other company when Of the same age,
nor by the Prudential itself In any
former year. 1t has over five millions
OF policies In force and furnishes life

The Prudential, 1t is proper to state,

THE M0NDELL BILL
MEASURE FOR OPENING UP PoR.
TON OF sHosHoNE AND
ARAPAHoE RESERVES.
Bill Follows Closely as Passible the
Argument Entered Into Between
Indians Of Wind River and United
States-Ceded Lands to Be Open
ed for En:ry BY June Of Next Year.

Washington, D. c., March 15.-The
bill introduced by Representative Mon
dell for the opening of a portion of the
Shoshone and Arapahoe, or Wind river
reserve. in Wyoming. follows as close
ly as it is possible to do under the
changed conditions and in order to con
form with the now established prac-
tice OF congress not to pay Indians
outright for their lands, but only to
agree to pay to them the sums receiy-
ed for the lands as they are sold and
disposed of to settlers. the agreement
entered into between the Indians of
the Wind River reservation and the
United States in 1891.
The bill proposes to open up for set
Element all of the lands north of the
Big Wind river and east of the Popo-
Agie, so that the north and east bound
airy of the reservation as diminished
will be the Big Wind river and the
at the Big Wind river on the west
boundary of the reserve and follow
that stream down t o its junction with
the Popo-Agie and then up thai stream
to the south boundary of the reserve.
This proposes to open up a settle
ment of about 1OO. 900 acres more than
the agreement of 1891.
The coded lands are to be opened %
entry no later than June /, 1905. 1t
is believed hat it will take until that
time TO make the necessary surveys,
changes in allotments, etc. The bill
provides that the lands shall be open
ed to settlement and entry under the
homestead. townsite, coal and mineral
land laws. The entryman under the
townsite. coal and mineral land
laws is to pay the prices provided
for by those laws. The homestead en-
tryman is to pay $3.50 an acre for all
lands entered within two years after
the opening of the reservation and
slips an acre for all lands entered
thereafter. After six years after the
opening Of the reservation the non.min-
eral lands remaining unsold shall be
sold to the highest bidder for cash at
not less than 81 an acre: but after the
expiration Of ten years from the open
ing of the reservation the unsold nom
mineral lands shall be disposed Of t.
the hightst bidder for cash without a
minimum price.
