olsl officer OF the service. The four latter
were tried before United states Commits
sioner ziobaoh at this place on Friday
and all were bound over to the federal
grand Jury except one from Winner, who
proved q complete alibi and that it was
clearly n case of mistaken identity.
Sentiment on the Rosebud is very much
against the tactics Of the government Off
clals and many threats have been made
that someone will have bad luck IL the
square deal is not more in evidence in the
future. II is alleged the system OF the
special officer I'm this country was to travel
around In company with Boss Farmer
Mosher, OF the White River issue station,
and Special Officer johnson, son of the
chief officer of the department, with Amos
Little Crow. a breed from the Fort Bel
KNAPP reservation In Montana. They would
go into a saloon, buy the drinks and then
the indian would buy half pint OF whiskey
to take along. This the special officers
took, sealed up and presented as evidence.

county on June q they drove from the
| White River to Dallas, Gregory. Colome,
! Dixon and Winner and then to the Rose
bud agency all in one day, and, in the
parlance OF the west, grabbed" ten men
on the trip. These men they had never
seen before in their lives and they spent
only a few minutes in any one place.
Then they came back month later and
made the arrests. and on the stand swore
positively to the identity of every man.

OF balloons.
