EIGHT million ACRES Of
LAND.0PENED IN THE N. ".
FIFTY THOUSAND HoMEsTEAos TAKEN FROM The
AND OPENED FOR ETTLEmENT AND Improvement
WHITES MANY THO usAND ACRES THROWN OPEN u
NORTH DAKOTA MORE COME NEXT SEASON.

Washington, May 23.-There have
been opened, or soon will be opened
to white settlers, 8,273,880 acres of
land in the great northwest. It is to
be taken from the Indians with pay
and turned over to the white men
that it may become productive and
afford cheap homes to those who are
willing and content to build their fu-
ture fortunes on the products, of the
SOIL that they till.
The land is held for homesteaders.
Divided into farms of 100 acres each,
it will afford SLIP homesteads to as
many homesteaders. A farm of 100
acres will support a large family. Av-
eraging six to a family this new ter
r4tory will provide farms for more
than SOC, 1000 persons, and the surplus
product of the agricultural and graz
ing lands to be made productive will
provide food for twice as many more.
Railroads will follow the pioneers
into the heart of these now unpeopled
lands, giving work to thousands who
will buy from the settlers, cities and
towns will spring up, giving homes
and occupation to thousands of others,
new industries will be founded, and
new territory, vast as that of many
empires in the old world will become
populous and contributing it's share to
the wealth of the nation. This has
been the case with other vast tracts
of land thrown open to settlement
there will be no exception with these
new lands.
Stretch From Minnesota to the Coast.
The lands to be opened stretch from
Minnesota to Washington. They are
located:
Minnesota, $4,000 acres of the
Lake OF the Woods, along the Cana
dian border.
North Dakota, 564,4So acres of the
Standing Rock Indian reservation.
South Dakota, 1905, 800 acres of the
Cheyenne River or Rosebud Indian
reservation, and 748,8S0 acres of the
Standing Rock Indian reservation, a
total of 1885, 80 a res.
Montana, 100000 acres of the Crow
Indian reservation, and 100000 in
the Flathead Indian reservation; a
total of 100000 acres.
Washington, 100000 acres in the
COlvtlle Indian reservation.
Nearly all of this land is adapted to
agriculture and grazing. In the
North Dakota and Montana Crow
Indian tract there may be some coal,
O. or other minerals which will be
withdrawn from entry or subject to
special leases by the interior depart
ment. The lands are to be classified
by government agents into farm lands
of the first and second grades; graz

STANTON EXPECTS
TRAINS JULY nth

Stanton, N. D., May 23.-Nany rum
ors are afloat in regard to the Knife
river branch, some saying the grad
ing work has already begun at that
place. This is not true, as no signs Of
grading has yet been shown. Nor,
as yet, has the right of way agents
been there. The road will probably
be built, but, as to how soon, we are
unable to say. It looks more probable
than ever now that Stanton will be
the terminus of the north branch for
some time, as the Northern Pacific are
Erecting most of their attention to
the line tapping the Berthold reserva-
ton. Press reports say that the rails
will be into Henzler, on the north
branch, by the end of the week, and
Judging by that we thinh Stanton
should expect trains by July 1.
Wouldn't it he proper to have: some
kind of celebration in honor of the
occasion on July 4? Get busy. The
chief engineer of the M. r. railroad
was in town Wednesday in company
with his wife and daughter. He was
here looking after the matter OF To-
eating the depot grounds and stated
positively that the road would be
here in about forty days.
Parties coming from St. Paul In
formed us that the N. P. officials at
that place said the road would be into
Stanton within thirty Or forty days
at the most.

summer residences. The land Is OF
little agricultural value, but the lake
is popular with residents of the local.
ity for summer sports and uses.
The South Dakota lands to be open
ed to homesteaders are In the Rose
bud reservation, and are adapted par
ticularly to farming and grazing. So
far as known they contain no mineral.
he lands are to be valued by a
commission to be appointed by the
president, the homesteader to pay one
fifth upon entry and the remainder IN
.ustallments in six years. The sec
rotary of the interior Is authorized TO
reserve such lands as are necessary
for agency, school and religious pur-
poses. Opening of the lands will be
by proclamation.
The North Dakota lands, in the Fort
Berthold reservation, are grazing and
mineral lands. 1t is believed that
much of it is underlaid with Ignite
coal. Whether this coal is Of any COM
mercial value has not been determ1n-
ed. The geographical survey has fail
ed thus far to show it has commercial
worth. It will have to ~ classified
before being opened to entry. Whether
it will be sold as grazing lands or
held under the classification of miner
al lands and disposed of by lease and
in restricted areas, has not yet been
determined. 1
The Colville Indian lands in Wash
ington is good agricultural land.
The Minnesota lands to be opened
in June, are in the extreme north of
the state. They are fertile, well wat
cred lands and adapted to all the
crops grown in that latitude. The ad-
jacent waters are stocked with fine
food fish, which years ago the Indians
hauled on sledges to Crookston, more
than 200 miles distant, to dispose of
to the settlers.
