3,5I4 SIOUX THUMB MARKS
ON PUBLIC DOCUMENT,
Unique Signatures Take AS
Means of Identifying Allot-
tees of Reservation
Lands.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, April TO-
Maj. Mclaughlin, Inspector of Indian
Agencies, is on his way to Washing
ton, with the signatures of 3.514 Sioux
Indians done in thumb marks. Mai.
Mclaughlin passed through Mime
apolis with the document and is con-
tident that it will make a sensation at
the Department of State
The signatures. however, were not
accumulated for spectacular effect, but
stand as memorial to the Govern
ment from the Standing Rock agency,
asking for the division of 500, 900
acres of land. The land was granted
to them liz 1899, but has not been
divided. In the past the noble red
man has been considered above guile,
but it has been discovered that when
it comes to a land deal, Uncle Sam is
likely to suffer unless every precaution
is taken. AS all Indians look more
or less alike, the unique method of
taking their signatures was decided
upon.

doubt the most successful organization
of this kind on the road at the present

the fact that he toleTates no immortality
or gambling with his Company. and in

he does away with that class of people
that any law abiding community will
not tolerate. His motto is to please
the public and provide them with
good, wholesome and up-todat attrac-
tIons, and in so doing, he merits their
appreciation and endorsement.
AS special feature, he has engaged
Mr.. Matt Gay. the celebrated high
diver to give two performances daily

only high diver who holds the distinc
tion of performing successfully and

Aldermen Dale expressed the senti
ment of ninety per cent of the citizens
Of Columbia when he stated that Mr.
Bigelow had been negligent of the IN.
terests of Columbia and her people in
his management of the Columbia Water
q Light Co. The people have felt that
this was true for long while. and the
fact that Mr. Bigelow has failed to carry
out his recent contract with the city for
lights only goes to show that they we're
right 10 this feeling The dem and of
the Water & Light Co., that the city
pay an extra amount, in addition to the
regular contract, if an eight inch main
Is laid down school street, is another
fact that shows the attitude of the
Water & Light Co., toward the city.
The taxpayers OF the southern. half Of
town have been paying for years for
something they did not get-adequste
fire protec ton We don't believe any
Que of the officers OF the Water & Light
Co., will say that the water pressure
near the City Grain 4 Feed Co., gives
adequate protection. Mr.. Bigelow him
self says that an eight inch main down
School street would strengthen the
water pressure all along the southern
system. Yet when the city asks that
improvements be made which will give
the people that service they have been
paying for and should have had all
along, the demand is, more money.
