TRIP COUNTY NOT
ID OPEN THIS YEAR
from Mondays Daily.l
BECAUSE OF LARGE NUMBER OF
INDIAN ALLoTMENTs
THIS SEEMS TO BE ASSURED
LETTER FROM INTERIOR DEPART
MENT SAYS so.
NO PROCLAMATION ISSUED YET

The Herrck Press Says That Informa-
ton Which Has Been Received
There Regarding Trip Settlement
is Considered Final.
Herrick, S. d., May 13.-The Trip
county portion of the Rosebud reser-
walton will not open to settlement I'M
til next year, according to the Her
rick Press.
The Press says:
Early last week we were informed
from an official source that the open
ing to settlement of the Trip county
portion of the Rosebud reservation
could not possibly take place this year,
but not wishing to make a statement
which would disappoint great many
people, we hesitated to make posi-
| tive assertion of the fact until fully
verified.
Shortly afterward. however, we re-
ceived from Mr.. Samuel Herrick, of
the well known legal firm of Herricl
& Herrick, of Washington, ID. c., who
has been the representative in Wash
| ington of our towns candidacy for one
of the registration points for the Trip
county drawing, the following letter
received by him from the department
of the interior in answer to his solicit
tatiOns on behalf of the town of Her
| rick:
Department of the Interior. General
Land Office, Washington, d. c.. April
%, 19O7.-Mr. Samuel Herrick, Wash
ington, d. c.: In reply to your letter
of April Is, 1907, transmitting petitions
from citizens and the Commercial club
of Herrick, South Dakota, for the des-
| ignation of Herrick as place of regis
tration of applicants for the entry of
| lands within that part of the Rosebud
Indian reservation as lies in Tripp
| county South Dakota, | enclose copy
of circular of March o. 1907, relative
to the opening to entry of said lands
which contains all the information this
Office will be able to give until the
president issues his proclamation fix
ing the date when, and the manner in
which the lands shall be opened to
settlement and entry, except to state
the opening cannot take place during
the current calendar year because of
the large number of allotments to be
made.
Your letter and its Enclosures are
placed on file for further consideration
at the proper time.
Very respectfully,
Fred bennett,
Assistant Commissioner
1t seems to us that the statement
there made is final, and will doubtless
terminate for the present the strife
now on between Bonesteel, Burke and
Gregory for the location of the land
Office west of the river, for it is very
probable that the Office will not be
moved from Mitchell at least until a
date is set for the opening of Trip
county.

Sprung a Joke.

Pierce, Neb., May 11.-Special to
The News; The working over of an
old story to sound like new and make
every one laugh here was accom-
plished by travelling man who mod
estly asks that his name be not put in
print but it is suspected he lives in
Norfolk The facts are that Pierce is
all torn up" over the appointment of
a city marshal. The town is about
equally divided on choice as between
the old marshal of years, Geo. W.
Con, and the one holding the past
year, William Bartlett. Both factions
had hoped for their favorite to get
recognition while silent men of nc
small amount of interest'in the town
had hoped to see a dark horse enter
the limelight. 1t seems the travelling
man arrived in Pierce from Norfolk
the morning after the appointment OF
a marshal and the mayor, Sam d
Berg was being praised roasted and
discussed in general. The travelling
man then had an opportunity to spring
his funny remarks So went up TO 6
Pierce resident and said he had just
come from Norfolk and people were
standing in small crowds and all he
could hear was Boche, Boche, and now
here in Pierce all he could hear was
Berg, Berg, Berg. Who on earth die
this man Berg kill? Many are still
laughing and the travelling man tool
some fat orders.
