sions reached by the Indians at pow
vows held at Pine Ridge during Sep

A bill introduced by Senator Gamble
last spring provided for the Pine
Ridge opening, but the Indians had
not agreed to the terms under which
they We're willing to let their lands
so. They have insisted on price
of $3.50 instead of $l.50 for the lands

change of the western boundary OF
the lands to be opened.

The department took the request I'M

could not accede to it. 1t was felt
that such action would constitute Off

there can be NO harm in accepting
them and making a proper use of
them. A million from Rookie

a million from Cranegie to fight
pellagra, makes two millions, now
if some one will send us a million

have three millions, and, so on
