FOR PEDESTAL OF MAHAS-
kA ORDER oRDl-
NANCES REVISED

An adjourned meeting of the city
council was held Monday evening with
eight members present. Considerable
postponed business occupied the time
until nearly eleven o'clock, and the
weary fathers decided to lay some OF
the matters over until the next regu-
lar meeting next week,
In regard to the building of the ped
estal for the statue of Mahaska, all
bids were rejected and it is under
stood that local contractors will be
consulted and probably given the con
tract at a later date.
After hearing the report of the wat
er committee, to whom the matter had
been referred at previous meeting.
the oskaloosa Water Co. was ordered
to install fire hydrant at the east
end OF @ avenue on the south side OF

the city solicitor to revise the ordi-
nances, was accepted and Solicitor @.
C. Orvis ordered to revise them and
put all In shape ready for the printer.

is now demanded by the most pro-

young men and women for Office

many opportunities for progress in

of the most successful men and

no other training than that given by
some Business College. Graduates

Divided into tracts of 1CO acres the

But the h~omesteads In some OF the
reservations will be limited TO forty
acres each. so this will bring the total
number of farms close to $4,000. The
homesteads will be in recla-
districts. and will be under
government irrigation.
The first reservation opened was the
Lower Brule, and hundreds OF home
filed applications for lottery

place at Pierre. S. d. The land has
been appraised at from $1.o5 to 81 an

LOCATION OF LANDS WHICH Will BE OPENED TO SETTLEMENT

Former difficulties and dangers In Sc
curing Uncle Sans lands have been
eliminated and it is now rather n
pleasant experience to take q chance
on a quarter section farm.
The method OF registration and allot-
ment by drawing instead Of the old
pell-mell rush" gives everybody a
show. Under this deal an unaccom-
panied woman may register without
embarrassment and has the same
chance as a man In securing the best
prizes In the reservation. In some of
the recent openings women have drawn
splendid lands near the sites OF towns
which made their quarter sections
worth small fortunes.
The Brule Is a member Of the great
Sioux tribe, the most numerous and
powerful of the Western nations.
While the Sioux may not have been as
fierce individually as the Apache or
Ute, he was collectively stronger and
raj the las to be subdued. In spite
Of this condition the Sioux has in re-
e n years shown probably more of a
disposition to make his living out of
the land given him than many Of the
other tribes.
The Brule reservation contains &c.
500 acres. School facilities are pro-
vided In withholding certain sections
BY the government. With its opening
another Swan song was sung by the
original American. This marks nm ad-
ditional act In the process OF elimina-
ton OF the Indian and is one Of the
last Of his plots OF land to be given
over to civilization.
Government surveyors are DOW busy
In other reservations, but II will re-
Quire some time to complete the work.
