M. Mullen left for the range of the
Minnesota and Dakota Cattle Co. in
South Dakota last Friday to attend a
council OF the Indians which is to be
held this week, for the purpose of try
ing to prevent them from raising the
price OF rental of the lands that are
used for grazing. Certain agitators
have made them believe that they were
entitled to higher rent from the land
and they have threatened to raise it.
Conditions are getting so in the graz
ing region that it is difficult to conduct
the business with the ease and satisfac-
| tion that it used to be.

where they will contract for large

Mechanics, farmers, engineers and
in fact all men who have to deal in
that kind of work which gets their
hands dirty and oily will find relief
from the usual trouble in getting the
dirt off, if they try some of the soap
that is handled by the Red Front Gro
Gerry store. 1t is called ssHaskin's
Mechanics Pumice Soap, and is some
thing that not only takes the dirt off,
but leaves the hands in soft and
pleasant condition. The Review office
has been supplied with it for some
time and finds that it is superior to
4 uldU lbs ever D6Cu& Url6Q5 IN

and CRIME from handling type and
machinery. If you haven't tried it
get a cake the next time you order soap
and you will not be without it there
after.

months and is in good concert trim,
/ and the maennerchor has been practice
ing for about the same length of time
/ principally for the purpose of taking
part in the saengerfest that is to be
/ held in st. Paul, and will give an ex-
!. hibition of what it can do in the line
OF music. There is no'reason why the
concert should not attract a good au-
