SALE OF LAND ON THE

Il Obcron, N. III, Feb. s III the sncxt
few weeks it IS expected that those
who have taken claims on the Devils
Lake Indian reservation will estab-
Iish their residence, and Oberon, be-
ing the most central point ON the
Northern Pacific Railway, will de-
rive much benefit from the influx of
settlers.
Many allotments Of inherited Indian
lands are being listed for sale and will
lie advertised in The Oberon Reporter
this month, the: same as last year, when
but ia small number was sold on ac-
count Of bids being below the govern
.mcilt appraiscnent. Some OF those who
were unsuccessful last year will bid
higher andprobably secure some Of this
valuable land and some ofthose holding
homestead claims will also bid on
inherited land near by in order to se-
cure good sized farm in one piece.
h There are said to be about 200 claims

THIRTY MEN WERE
CAUGHT in THE ICE

Lewes, Del, Feb 6---Thirty men ilar-
roWly escaped drowning in the icy wat.
.ers of the Harbor Of Refuge at the Del
aware Breakwater and after being res
.cued with the greatest difficulty by the.
crews of two tugs they were forced to-
make their way to shore afoot over the
heavy ice foes with which the Delaware
River and Bay is blocked. The men
whose lives wereimperilled were Charles
Jacobs and his crew of twenty-nine men
of Philadelphia ice boat No. ., which
madeit way down the river from Phil
adelphia in an effort to make a channel
for vessels icebound at the breakwater.
The ice boat collided with the sunken
barge Santiago, the masts and buoys of
which had been carried away by the
ice jam. Thefice boat had become Wedg-
ed in the mass of ice between the har-
Dor of refuge and the old breakWatcr,
and was unable to proceed. The craft
was ait the mercy of the ice and was
carried lither and thither by the mo-
ton of the pack While drifting in this
manner the ice boat struck the barge
and a large hole was stove in her hulls
ihhHculdtciy the DodI DegdI 10 I'LL with
water and the crew realized at once
that there was no chance of saving her.
Captain Jacobs signals of distress we're
answered by the tugs Teaser and Box
er. The tugs experienced much diff
Guilty in reaching the rapidly sinking
ice boat, their progress being hampered
by the heavy cakes of ice, which ground
against the sides of the, vessel, render
ing their efforts extremely hazardous.
They succeeded, however, iii drawing
near enough to throw a line to the sink
ing ice boat and one by one the crew
were hauled aboard the reseuing tugs.

There were few slight collisions be-

Poland, however, still continues to be

the strike has ceased in some establish
fiients it has assumed more important
phase by its extension to the great coal

more governments have been placed un-

STRIKE AT LODI is
STILL VERY SERIOUS

LODI. Feb. 6 The situation here has
reached critical stage and it will be
decided soon whether the conflict shall
end or the strike be continued. The em-
ployers met on Saturday and decided to
reopen all their factories on Monday
when men reporting for work will be
re-ergaged and the remainder discharg
ed. A large number Of workmeli are
disposed to resume, but fear that the
nlalcontents will employ cocreion.
The newly appointed governor general
Arcimovitcll, is giving the closest attcn-
tIon TO the situation In the course Of
an interview with The Associated Press,
the governor general said that tomorrow
would be the critical test. If the strik-
ers once resume, he said the strike will
be broken Being asked whether he con-
sidered the strike political movement
the governor general answered
Ycs, and no. 1t Isl d labor movement,
but the strikers specific demands were
suggested BY political agitators, many
ot whom are foreigners.
He expressed himself as being confi-
dent that order will be maintained,
though they are handicapped BY tile In
sufiiciency Of the police force, which
numbers only 900. The governor gener-
all said he was averse to using soldiers,
who made bad policemen. 's8ss
The manufacturers highly commend
the proinptitude and tact which the gov
erIlor general displayed iii the lnaintens
ance of order which is III marked con-
trast with the fatal hesitarcy Of the
Warsaw authorities.
The strikers are demanding ain eight
hour day, etc, but are willing to accept
a compromise. The masters declare
that it is impossible in tile face Of ex-
listing competition to either increase
wages or declare the hours of work mn
less It As made general throughout

DISCOURAGED.

Columbus, Feb. 6.-To all appear
ances Senator Foraker has lost heart
regarding the present political situa-
tion in Ohio, He has gone back to
Washington, postponing conferences
with Harding and other leaders, and
there are no indications that he intends
to make fight against Herrick. The
nti-saloon people now are the sole re-
manning organized opposition.
Foraker has shifted the responsible
ty for Harding's future upon the Mar
ion man himself. Harding was ready
to fight, providing Foraker led the van,
but now, it is said, he sees the inn
possibility of beating Herrick.
