his present condition and his needs
for the future. Some of the chiefs
and most fluent speakers have al
ready indicated what their plans and
hopes for the future are, viz: That
in conjunction with the present
school now located at this place, an
industrial school be established, as
they say: "What is the use of our
sending children to school and Civ
ing them literary education, and
then bringing them back to the
agencies to gain make Indians out
OF them? What we want is to teach
them trades and make our boys and
girls equal to the whites, then we
can become truly American citi-
zens'"
Already is this question being
seriously considered by the Depart
ment of Indian Affairs and is beng
vigorously urged by Supt. S. B.
DAVIS.
So favorably was the idea received
by all present that a temporary or
ganization was formed, and it was
the unanimous voice that Rapid
City should celebrate Independence
day, and that the Indians should
have large part in the affair

What this country wants more than
an ything else, is to keep the Ameri-

For instance, in our own TOWN. we
have canning factory. This factory
employs from 10 to so people for say
three months in the year. Suppose
now ii run the whole year round,
what an income it would produce, not
only for those who are employed
there, but for the farmer, the mer-

fit. The life of any town is not in its
