ALLOTTED LAND MUST BE "DRY."
Federal Authorities Glad to Get Rul-
ing on Los Rights.

The United States authorities for
South Dakota express satisfaction
over the decision of the United States
supreme court in the case of James
Lincoln, who was convicted in the
United States court of Nebraska on
an Indictment charging him with the
unlawful introduction Of liquor into
the Winnebago Indian reservation.
He was found guilty and sentenced
to Imprisonment for period of sixty
days and fined 800.
The case came before the supreme
court on a writ of habeas corpus, Lin
coins attorneys seeking to have him
discharged from custody, on the
ground that the United States court
was without jurisdiction. Ever since
the Brewer decision, holding that it
was not violation of the federal
statutes for Indians who have taken
their allotments to purchase liquor,
there has been uncertainty as to
whether the federal courts had au-
thority to regard the land included in
allotments the same as the regular In
uldn question ABOUT IDo government
having authority to arrest and prose-
cute Indians or other persons who
take liquor to the regular Indian reser-
vations, but whether the land included
in the allotments given to Indians
should be treated the same as the
regular reservations has been a dis
puted question.
The decision of the United States
supreme court therefore means that,
while Indians who have taken allot-
ments are entitled to purchase liquor
in the towns adjacent to their homes
or elsewhere, they cannot lawfully
take liquor to allotted lands any more
than they can to Indian reservations,
and the United States courts will have
power in the future to punish Indians
or whites who take liquor to allotted
lands the same as those who are
charged with introducing liquor into
the regular Indian reservations

SHOOTS UP NElGHBOR'S HOMES
Residents of a Township Near Aber-
deem Terrorized

OSC!i Ci IoiILCu.
For some days residents in Gem
township, Brown county, have been
trying to solve a mystery that was
causing terror to some Of the farmers
and annoyance to others. One night
COW was found with it's head
crushed and badly battered, and the
evening before another was found
with it's throat cut. Other cattle have
been bruised and bear marks of cruel
treatment.
Later the mystery was solved In a
startling manner. Anton Salberg, a
farmer, started out armed with a rifle,
and began firing bullets into several
homes. The house occupied by Rev.
G. M. Grimsrud was literally riddled
with bullets. A telephone message
was received here telling of the shoot
ing, and Deputy Sheriff Hazel was sent
to the scene. After a long search he
found Salberg in a field and placed
him under arrest.
1t is believed Salberg is insane. He
denies having beaten or killed any
COWS, but admits the shooting, and
explained that he did it to show the
neighbors he was not afraid of them.
He is held in the county Jail, and will
be examined by the insanity board.

PLANS AERIAL TRAMWAY.
Business Club Will Find Out Cost Of
Bald Mountain Line.

The Business Club of Deadwood Is
working on plan for the construc-
ton of an aerial tramway from this
city to Bald Mountain for the pur.
pose Of transporting ores from that
district cheaper than can be done by
the railroads.
Until a few years ago this mini
mum price for ore when hauled by
the railroads was IS cents ton;
then upon a request from the mining
men this was reduced to so cents.
There now is a sliding scale running
from SO cents to $1.10 a ton. AS
number of large companies operating
in Bald Mountain have their mills In
Deadwood there for some time has
been talk of finding some cheaper
method of transportation. The plan
as now outlined includes the organi-
cation Of a company with sufhc1ent
capitol to construct this aerial tram
way, the building Of a central station
and the running Of side lines to all
properties interested. There are two
routes which may be followed, and
the distance will depend upon which
Of these two is chosen. The first one
coming down Deadwood gulch would
be a little over seven miles in length,
while the second, following Nevada
gulch for distance and then White
wood would be something more than
eight miles in length. AS the differ
ence in altitude between this city
and Bald Mountain Is over 1900 feet
it readily will be seen that the fall
is almost great enough to furnish by
gravitation all Of the power needed.
Not less than 1000 tons Of ore could
be handled daily, and the cost of the
road would be $4,000 to $4,000 "a
mile 1t is estimated that the cost
of handling the ore will not exceed
20 cents a ton, which will insure a.
great saving to many companies. A
corps of engineers will be engaged
at once to make the preliminary sur
veys and to lay before the club ex-
act information in regard to this en-
terprise.

LAND HUNGRY INVADE SOUTH DAKOTA
Towns Grow Like Magic AonS New RairoadsVast Regions
Now Filling Up as Track LayinS Operations -oSress

, BILE in South Dakota to-day. Yet with
all this activity there is nothing OF the
"boOm" nature observable. The men
who are coming into the state are
coming in to stay and make their
homes there. They want land, ana
there is no other place they know OK
where they can get as good land Tor
as small price. And one significant
fact about this influx of immigrants
is that nearly all of them are men OF
American birth from the older settled
states Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Mfcht-
gan and Ohio and contributing OF their
best blood and Drawn to South Da-
kota. The men from these states are
selling out their lands at anywhere
from $100 to $3.50 per acre, and are
putting their money into South Da-
kota lands at anywhere from SIS an
acre up. With the money they take
up there they double and quadruplo
their land holdings, and then have an
ample working capital back of them.
Out of the half million population OF
the state the census of last year
showed only about 10 per cent of for
eign birth.
Climatic Conditions Are Ideal.
The subject of climate is one that
interests every person meditating q
change of location, and Of this it can
be trnthfully said that every section
of South Dakota has pleasant and
healthful climatic conditions. It Is
called the Sunshine" state, and has
few cloudy or gloomy days. When it
rains it rains, and when it is done 1t
clears up. The following official fig.
ures are suggestive: South Dakota
has 2,944 hours of sunshine annually;
California, 2,114; Iowa, 2,545; Mime
sofa, 2,54S; Wisconsin, ,4S1; Illi-
nois, 2.156.
This sunshine is what makes the
state the great wheat and corn coun-
try that it is, and which is destined
to make it the greatest in the Union.
as it's many millions of acres of now
vacant land are gradually taken up
and brought under cultivation. In
general the spring opens early in
March, and from that time until the
harvest, late in July, the weather Is
temperate, with plenty Of rain. The
hottest days, as rule, are at the end
of June and the first Of July. How
ever hot the days may be, the even
ings and nights are always cool and
delightful. Usually at the harvest sea-
son the weather becomes dry, and
there is but little rain until the follow.
ing spring.
AS the rule, the winters have but
little snow, although there are excep-
tions and very deep SHOWS fall. In
thirty years there have been two win.
ters with excessively deep snow elev-
en- winters with a moderate amount,
and seventeen in which there has
been none or very little. Rains are
abundant during the growing season
only or from March into August,
while the remainder of the year is
comparatively dry. A better distribu-
ton for successful agriculture could
not be rranged.-Herbert VanderhoOf

WAS 1T QUAKE?
The People Of Pierre Are Undecided
on the Question,

The People Of Pierre Are Undecided
on the Question.
The people Of Pierre are trying
hard to decide among themselves
whether or not they felt a real earth
quake shock Thursday evening.
Some claim to have felt it, while
others in the same vicinity failed to
note any such symptoms. Claims are
made that the motion was sufficient
to jar buildings and start pictures
to swinging. While others in the
same building failed to notice it. At
Fort Pierre the disturbance is said
to have been about the same as that
of heavy loaded truck jolting off a
crossing near the building in which
the observer was at the time. but as
there has been a great deal Of heavy
freighting of railroad material it was
attributed to that cause until they
found that no freighting trucks were
in operation at that time. Those who
failed to notice it say it was the work
OF imagination called up by the re
cent San Francisco disaster, but 9th
ers are certain they felt it.

In addition to their income from

the northern portion of the state are
making good profits from the sale of
hides. The volume to which this in.

rapid concrete work had been done

work at the first steam shovel in the

more dirt working eight hours day
than it did in any previous month
working ten hours day. The lower
steam shovel Is also working full
force, and it is estimated that all this
part of the work, the inlet canal the
work Of Grow creek and the diversion
dam will be completed by October /.
At the big dam on Owl creek the cut
is being made along the north side
canal, and work is going rapidly. The
work of stripping the sod along the
site of the big dam will commence
this week. An excavation down to
the shales will then be made, and this
pit will be filled with dirt and rolled
with the big steam roller. This prof
