ROSEBUD INDIANS
TOOK GOOD CLAIMS.

reservation country during which time
they took occasion to inspect the fine
lands in Trip county soon to be
thrown open to settlement.
They made the trip by automobile
and were met by Major Kelly OF the
Rosebud agency, who escorted them
about the country and gave them one
OF the most enjoyable weeks they
have experienced in years.

OF that land has been taken. Many of
the Indians after securing allotments
along the streams, relinqushed back
to the government and sought the
tablelands.
The land Is valuable. there is nc
question about 1t, and the rush of set
tiers to that country will be a record
breaker, it Is believed.
Hunting and Fishing.
The Sioux City trio did good dea

luck with the grouse. The dry weather
made 1t difficult for the dogs to work

ROSEBUD RUSH
STARTS 0CT.4.
Rush viii Start Day Before
Registration Begins.
IS THROUGH TRAINS DAILY.
Rosebud Landseekers viii Come
Largely From Iowa, Nebraska,
Minnesota and South Dakota, with
Sprinklng from Illinois and the East.

The Northwestern is preparing
trains and equipment for the Rosebud
rush. The rush will commence on the
day preceding observation-disclosures 4.
At present the road is carrying fifty
passengers daily to Dallas and Greg
DRY, whose aim is to get preliminary
view of the land and make selections
in the event of being fortunate enough
to draw something.
The big crowds are expected during
the registration period. October SIT,
the largest number coming In the
early period To handle the crowds the
Northwestern will run fifteen through
trains daily between Omaha and Greg
DRY and Dallas. Each train will carry
ten coaches and baggage car and be
pulled by the largest engines in the
service
Unlike the present service, which in
wolves a change of trains at Norfolk
Junction, the trains will run unbroken
from Omaha to Gregory and Dallas,
with stops at the Junction for meals
and train orders.
The fifteen Northwestern trains are
expected to carry 1900 passengers
daily to and from the reservation.
When the traffic lessons, as the end OF
the registration period approaches, the
train service will be reduced proper
tionately.
AS O'Neill and Valentine are affida-
those towns such additional service as
necessities demand.
The Northwestern expects at this
time to carry possibly 100000 land
seekers to the Rosebud. This number
is figured on the basis of the Bone
steel rush, at which time the North
western carried $4,000 out of the 104,-
600 landseekers who attended the
drawing on that OCCASION leaving
about 10000 to the rival roads. AS it
is expected that close to 200, 900 people
may register for the Rosebud drawing
the Northwestern figures that its
proportionate share may be 100000.
At the Bonesteel drawing over 100.
600 registered with but $500 claims
to be drawn. AT the Rosebud drawing
the available limit of claims to be
drawn is 5000. On that basis the
Rosebud registerers will stand a better
show of drawing claim than at Bone
steel.
The people who will register for the
Rosebud drawing will largely come
from Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota and
South Dakota, with sprinkling from
| Illinois, Wisconsin and states farther
east.

sioux FallS-Hughes Coming.
Sioux Fails, S. d., Sept. 22.-The
campaign of the independence party
of William Randolph Hearst will be
opened in South Dakota tonight at the
voters of Sioux Falls and vicinity will
be addressed by John Temple Graves,
the vice-presidential nominee of the
Independence party, and Hon. Howard
S. Taylor, an attorney of Chicago, who
is the candidate of the independence
party for United States senator from
Illinois. This will be the first appear
ance in this part of the country Of Mr..
Graves who, as is well known, is a
southern editor and orator of national
reputation. The fact that he is a
grandson Of John c. Calhoun also will
added interest to his appearance in
Sioux Falls and South Dakota.
Hon. w. C. Cook, chairman of the
Republican state central committee,
has been officially advised by Chair
man Hitchcock, of the national COM
mittee, that Governor Charles Hughes,
of New York, had been scheduled for
at least one speech in South Dakota
during the campaign. Chairman Hitch
cock stated in his message that Gov
ernor Hughes would appear in South
Chairman Cook was asked at what
point the speech should be made, and
Immediately wired back to the Chicago
headquarters to book the popular gov
ernor of the Empire state for Sioux
Falls. Elaborate preparations will be
made by the Republicans of Sioux
Falls and South Dakota to give the Wis
iting governor a warm and hearty re-
ception.
1t is probable that William ]. Bryan
will also make an address in Sioux
Falls. Early next Monday morning
Mr.. Bryan will pass through Sioux
Falls on his way from st. Paul to
Mitchell, where he is scheduled to
make an address. Former Senator
Pettigrew and other admirers of Mr..
Bryan are anxious for him to make a
speech in this city, Notwithstanding
the early hour AT when ne VIII pass
through The only obstacle is whether
or not the railroad company over
whose lines Mr. Bryan will make the
journey from ST. Paul to Mitchell will
consent to hold the train in Sioux Falls
for an hour or So Mr.. Bryan has con
scented to make an address here, and II
is likely there will be no difficulty in
having the train held for the neces-
sary period.
