Pierre Business Men Take Action To.
ward Raising Funds.
Pierre, S. D., June 6.-At a meeting
In this city, attended by the leading
ed to take definite action toward Sc
curing the necessary cash by sale of
state building lands to secure the re-
CURED $150,000 for the erection of the
wing of the new state capitol. In the
conference it was proposed that a COM
pany be chartered under the state laws,
with P. f. Mcclure, A. Ewart and C. G.
Bennett, the presidents of the three
national banks of this city, as direct
ors, to issue stock to the amount Of
$4,000 for the purchase Of $4,000
acres of the state building lands. The
ton of the wing is s150,O00, which is
to include the cash on hand for that
purpose. The amount on hand Is $780,
900, and h mou of stock which
will be issued by the company is just
the $4,000 difference which must be
raised through the sale Of lands. While
IT IS not likely that just at present, 49,
600 acres Of this land could be select
ed which would sell at $40 an acre for
cash, that amount could be disposed Of
at that figure in the aggregate If time
could be allowed on the sales, as in the
case of state school lands. A company
could take the whole. amount and put
up the cash and sell the land on terms
which would allow them tt get out on
the deal. while the state, not being in
condition to make the terms, could mot
make the sales. II the state board
would attempt to sell the land on terms
the probabilities are all against their
disposing Of enough of it to secure the
funds required before contracts for the
work can be let. and such action would
only result in piling up in the treasury
whatever cas- was realized, where 1t
would be of no benefit to the state or
the building fund until the full time
of the tenn sales would have expired.
Such action would also delay the work
for several years, while by a certain
sale to a company the new building
could be completed by the 1st of Jam
uary, 1907. The fund now on hand
will put in the foundation, and will be
used at once for that purpose, while
the money from the sales of land can
be used In the construction work next
year and the building pushed to com-
pletion.

SIOUX INDIANS

They Are Efficient Both as
Workmen and as Con-
tractors.
GET GRADING CONTRACTS
Several Sections of Road Making or
the New Milwaukee Extension in
South Dakota Are Contracted
for by Red Men.

Sioux Falls, S. D.. June THAT the
Sioux warrior has become an efficient
workman, as well as contractor, is
the extension of the Chicago, Milwau-
kee & st. Paul railroad from Chamber
lain to the Black Hills.
A crew of twenty-five Sioux Indians,
with teams and scrapers, are at work
on that part of the railroad grade
which extends through a large island
on the Missouri river opposite the
town Of Chamberlain. Thee Indians
are from the Grow Creek agency, and
at the suggestion OF Major H. D.
Chamberlain, United States Indian
agent at Crow Creek, the contractors
We're to give them a trial.
The result is proving very satisfac-
tory. The Indians nave contracted for
several sections of the work of grading,
and under the immediate supervision
OF John Van Patter, an agency en-
ploye, they are making good progress
with their contract.
AT another point on the railroad ex-
tension, an Indian named Louis Loud
en- has a contract for grading. He has
the utmost confidence of his brethren.
as is attested by the fact that, instead
of employing white graders, he secured
the services of a number of Sioux war
riors from Grow Greek and Lower
Brule agencies.
The old days when the Sioux war
r1ors were accustomed to recline in the
shade while their wives split the fire
wood, cared for the ponies and per-
formed all the other labor of the house
hold, appea to be gone forever. Hun
dreds Of the Sioux Indians have gone
to work on the reservations and other
points to prove that they can carr a
living for themselves and families.
