MANY WINNERS NOT FILING.

The filing for the Standing Rock and
Cheyenne River reservation lands
started on the third fifty Thursday.
Or the first 100 winners in the land
lottery of last October but 81 filed
on claims that they haG drawn. The
indications are that a larger proper
ton of the winners will drop out as
the numbers get higher. In fact, one
locator claims that not v 5000 of
the 5000 winners will file or the land.
This is perhaps an extreme estimate,
but it Is becoming evident that a
great many of the persons who drew
a winning number registered more for
speculative purposes than with any in
~tention of filing unless they drew an
exceptionally low number.
This fact is not regarded as a dis
advantage by Dakotans who are ac-
quainted with the land, however, for
they argue that after the low numbers
are filed the remainder of the land
will he taken almost entirely by per-
sons who are real farmers and who
intend to remain upon their home
steads permanently. making homes of
them. While this is the intent of
the law, and those who register state
It to be their bona fde intention to
file II they draw a number. the specu.
lative element cannot altogether be
got rid of.

BIZ KINGS LOSES TWICE.

IHe local track teams lat nara luck
during the past week, the high school
losing to Huron Saturday by a SO to
SO score, and the college boys were
defeated by Mitchell Tuesday, the
count standing 63 to "a.
A Huron dispatch says of the meet
there: In the track meet here Sat
urday afternoon between Brookings
and Huron high school athletes, HUI
ron was the victor-S9 to sc points.
Some good work was done. The mile
race, won by Bowe Of Huron, was es-
pecially exciting; he was far in the
rear eel most the distance, but on
the last quarter steadily gained and
before the wire was reached he had
ou~tdistanced his competitors. Roberts
of Huron, was the winner of the two
mile race, an event in which he had
never before participated. The other
winners were Freed, Huron, 100-yard
dash; discus throw, Dickey; pole vault,

high jump. A large crowd witnessed
the events.
The defeat of the college at Mitch
ell was something Of a hard luck af-
fair, at least the boys so regard it,
and consequently do not eel as badly
as they might. The defeat may be
a blessing in disguise, as it will prob
ably awaken them to the fact that
they will have to make a strenuous
fight to capture the state meet which
opens at Huron two weeks from to-
day. The meet at Mitchell was run
off on a muddy track and in a cold,
drizzling rain. The meet was called off
early in the afternoon and the Brook
ings boys went down town and each
disposed of a big dinner. About four
o'clock it was decided to have the af-
fair anyway, and with those big din
ners aboard the Brookipgs boys were
considerably handicapped.
