land left after the Indians receive their
allotments. All lands fronting on the
w-atercourses were taken up some time
age. and most OF the level flats have
since been taken.
A ruling made by JUDGE Garland last
week IN the United States court In OF
great interest TO those living on or near
Indian reservations. IL decided that IL
is contrary TO law TO bring liquor To-
AN Indian allotment until the indian
had received FUN patent for his land.
As all Indian nllotments ann be sold

received his first trust patent u follows
that many years viii elapse before

Employing Order al Sioux Falls Re,
strained in Its Actiona.

Sioux Falls. s. D.. Nov. ~a.-Judge J.
W. Jones, or the circuit court. has
granted n temporary injunction IN the
case OF the members or the local typo
thetne against the members OF the local
typographical union who are out on n
strike. IL viii be remembered that on
the nth OF September all the printers
in the local job Offices. I'm response TO n
notice from the International body
laid down their sticks and rules and
went out on nm eight-hour strike. Since
tina time there has been some friction
between the union n n%on-union
printers who took their places. Thc
employing printers sought to prevent
pickctlng. influencing ~non-union men To
quit. and also TO stop the publication OF
u ape by the printers called The
Elght-Hour Cause" The terms OF the
restraining order viii be mad known
this afternoon. but the opinion prevails
that Judge Jones viii not restrain the
union men from issuing their paper
nor from using peaceful means In i'm
duCiug the nou-uuion printers - quit
work "a Join the union. This belief
is based on remarks made by the Judge
when he granted the temporary injunc-
ton and gave the attorneys until this
afternoon 10 draw ~ the order which
mCst be submitted to the attorneys FOR
the non-union printers before being
submitted to the ccurt. The employing
