INDIANS GIVE up
HUNTING GROUNDS
Over a Million More Acres in
Dakotas Will Be Opened
to Eatry.

Wallpala, S. D.. March 1S.-For the
forty-second time Major Mclaughlin,
the veteran Indian inspector, has made
a treaty with Indians. whereby they re-
linquish a portion of their old hunting
grounds.
One million one hundred thousand
acres in North and South Dakota, COM
prising nearly one-half of the Standing
Rock reservation, will be opened to set
Element as a result of this agreement.
At present this land is held under lease
by Nelson Morris, the Chicago packer,
and Walker, of Council Bluffs, la. 1t
comprises some OF the finest valley land
west of the Red river, and, taken as q
whole, is the best of the Sioux reserva-
ton land west of the Missouri.
The diminished reservation left to the
Indians will amount to about 1900, 900
acres, and after taking up all their al
lotments they will i've a small amount
Of surplus for their cattle and horses
to range upon.
While the Marshall bill calls for the
opening of the whole of the Standing
Rock reservation, it is believed that
the agreement reached by Major Nc
Laughlin will be considered a fair COM
promise by congress to both Indians
and whites.
Want Ten Years.
With Infinite patience Major Nc
Laughlin explained to the Indians how
h population Of the West was in
creasing, and the demand for land
growing stronger: how the supreme
court had, in the famous Lone Wolf
case, decided that the Indians We're
wards and the government their guard
ian, with the right to dispose of their
lands or property as they saw At. He
told them how the president and the
commissioner We're having a hard fight
to secure to the Indians the land they
now hold.
With the stoical resignation of their
race. the chiefs replied that for some
years they had seen that the white mar
was going to swallow them up" We
will give you What they ask" they
said, 'but will you not ask congress
to spare TO us for at least 10 years
the small remaining lands we have?
You have been a father to us and we
have no one but o to look to as a
friend, and we ask you to intercede
for us"
Major Mclaughlin, who was agent
for the Standing Rock Indians IA years,
promised his influence on their behalf.
He expects it will be at least a year
and a half, and probably two years.
before the lands will be open for en-.
