SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Dec. 1.-(special.)-
Several hundred of the landseekers. both
men and women, who were fortunate
enough to draw homesteads in the ceded
portion of the Rosebud Indian reservation
in Gregory county, and who have resided
on their land during the summer and fall,
have received a severe jolt from the com
missioner OF the general land Office in con
nection with their application for leave OF
absence from their homesteads during the
winter months. Hundreds Of such appllca-
lions were forwarded to the general land
Office in Washington, but four-hfths OF
them have now been returned, having beer
rejected by the commissioner Some of the
applicants thinking their applications
would, without doubt, be granted, had dc
parted for their old homes in other states
but they will now be compelled to return
and maintain a residence on their claims.

absence of "To Let" signs. In looking

OIL MONOPOLY IN WASHINGTON
New Inspection Law Drives Independ-
ent Companies Out of State.

Seattle, July 13.-The Standard oil
company has been given an exclusive
market for Illuminating OIL I'm Wash
ington by the operation of the new oil
inspection law passed by the last leg
islature and which went into effect
one month ago.
Prior to the time the new law be
came effective small quantities of ''in-
dependent" oil were shipped into
some of the smaller markets of the
state from California refineries, but
the operation of the law and the scale
of fees fixed by 1t for the inspection
of illuminating oils is such as to drive
the Independent product completely
out of the state.
This result has been accomplished
by the scale of fees fixed for the in
spection of oil. The fees charged are
fixed by an arbitrary sliding scale,
the inspection charge In small guam
titles being 20 cents a gallon and
thereafter decreasing in amount per
gallon with the increase in the amount
inspected at one time until the inspec-
tion charge by the car load In tank
cars or tanks is one-fifth of cent a
gallon.
The Independent oil shipped into
Washington came in small quantities,
shipped in barrels by sea from Cali
fornia by vessel to some of the smaller
coast ports. With the high inspection
charge added to the price of this oil,
the manufacturers find 1t impossible
to ship It here and compete with
Standard Oil which comes in large
quantities and is inspected at the
lower rate.
