INDIANS TO SECURE TITLE.
Yankton Sioux Preparing to Secure
Patents to Their Land.

Wagner. s. D., July GA large num-
Der of the Yankton Sioux Indians living
IN this vicinity are preparing to take
advantage of the recent act Of congress
authorizing the secretary of the inter-
lor to issue patents in fee simple to In
aians having allotments of land. Under
the act Indians who are shown to be
self supporting n capable of manag-
ng their own affairs can obtain a title
20 their land free and clear of all re-
striction. Under the former. laws IN
aians who had taken their allotments
of land could not secure title to their
tracts from the government until after
they had occupied the land for a period
Of twenty years. Practically all of the
Yankton Sioux Indians have taken al
totments. If the large majority of them
ask for their patents at once, under the
provisions of the new law, as it is ex-
pected they will, a vast amount of land
will be added to the taxable land in.
This (Charles Mix) county and in ad-.
iit,on it would prove of great benefit
IN settling up the eastern part Of the
county.
