1900 NOW REGISTERED.
Chances for Farm Being Reduced
Rapidly.

Special to Times RepuDncan.
Sioux City, July 16.-With the an
nouncement of the Yankton registra-
ton office that $1,000 have registered
there for the drawing of Rosebud In
dian reservation lands, the chance or
those who seriously want homesteads
is rapidly becoming smaller. Bonesteei
reports $4,000 registered at that place,
while Fairfax and Chamberlain have
taken the preliminary papers OF 5000
more, making total of 1900. ALREADY
the chances of drawing a quarter
section of the fine rolling farming
land have dwindled to one in eighteen.
1t Is said on good authority that
about half of the $4,000 acres Of land
in the reservation will be worth homes
steading, which makes the chance OF
drawing one of the first 1,2o0 numbers
about one in forty. Registration will
close week from tomorrow evening
There is every outlook for a continual
ton OF the crowds and Yankton thinks
between 5000 and 1000 will register
there every day next week. Estimates
OF the probable total at the close OF the
registration offices July % fix the total
at from $4,000 to $4,000.
While 16S.0o0 registered in Oklahoma
for $4,000 quarter sections, nearly
every section of Oklahoma land was
available for farming purposes. II 1t
be true that over half the Rosebud land
west of the Ponca and west of Willow
creek is comparatively worthless, the
hon,esteader is to have about one
chance in seventy of being allowed to
file on a tirst-c class claim.
People of all classes have been TAX
ing chances In the great land lottery.
Representatives from every state in
the union have gone TO Yankton
thru Sioux City. The prosperous busi-
ness man, the class which has taken
the trip to Dakota for pleasure, and
those who have dropped in incidentally
and enrolled their names for land, have
greatly reduced the chances of the
landseeker who turned his face to the
Rosebund In search of a home. Many
of these people will relinquish their
right to Ale on the land If they draw
chances and the next man in order
will be given his option of fling on the
claim. All of Is per cent of those who
draw land will fail to become entry
men, thus increasing the number who
viii have the right to enter to 5000.

EIGHT TOWNSITES
That Many New Towns in Prospsct on
the Rosebud Reservation Likely
That the RivaIry viii BE Lively.

Chamberlain, S. D.. July 16.--The
registrations yesterday for the Rose
bud drawings were little less than
500. Arrivals last evening for this
mornings registration were abont the
same number.
Eight applications have been made
TO the local United States land office
for townsites In the Rosebud, which
applications win be passed on by the
general land ONCE before filings are re-
ceived for the land in general. One
townsite is also being laid out on lands
secured from heirs of deceased Indians.
In addition the state is also advertis-
ing for s:..e on Aug. 26. at F'airfax, ons
s,ssssls frep. sls re. slf sf.sst..i' i',Iff Of
stasa lard whi.l. il is presumed, will
he secured by ts,wnsite boomers. SO that
there need be no fear Of a scarcity of
towns for all purposes and kinds Of
people.
The expected friction between the
registration officials and local agents
did not take place on the matter of So
liciting contracts to furnish kilograms
OF notification to those securing lucky
numbers during the drawing. The
agents capitulated.
In circular issued by the general
land office at Washington 1t Is hoped
by the authorities that the Rosebud
opening may escape a feature OF ex
tortion and matchmaking that was quite
general in the Cherokee strip opening.
At that time there were a large num-
Der of contests instituted against the
holders OF fortunate numbers on
grounds many times SO trivial as TO
show on their faoe lack Of good faith.
Then after the claimants were suffi-
ciently scared to pay over hundred or
two the contest would be dropped. In
the present opening arrangements have
been made to Immediately forward to
Washington all contests and these ocn-
tests will not only receive the prompt
attention Of the general land office. but
the secretary of the interior, the final
authority, as we'll Unless the cases
show merit on their face they will be
at once thrown out and the land Office
officials at Chamberlain notified to the
effect. There will therefore be no oc-
casion for claimants who know them
selves to be honestly. entitled to a
homestead right to pay over 10 anyone
any amount for the purpose OF enabling
him to make prompt entry OF the land.
A constantly growing proportion OK
the daily arrivals at Chamberlain for
registration are now staying over for
the drawing, which begins here on July
IS, and in few days the city will be
filed with hopeful ones. It 10 certain
that many thousands will be in town
by the time the drawing commences.
During the first three days OF the
drawing the Democrat and Register
offices of this city will merge their
forces and issue a daily. giving the
number. name and address OF the 1000
drawn from the boy each day. The
work will not be carried higher than
5000. because by the time that number
is reached further numbers will stand
no chance to secure land.
