ders to know that the early settlers
in Illinois lived in sea of waving

silvery streams. Wild fruit, wild
honey, abundance of game and rowing
Indians were features of an age that
passed all too soon, and your own

observations given in the following

of his "Tour of the Prairies," and the
recollections of others who mention
that lemons were almost unknown
and that people craving lemons drank
vinegar or rum, those craving fresh
fruits in winter knew not how to

they were poison; aguew was common

stiles, so much SO that betterments
which had been projected, (Which are
not only betterments, but in great
many cases are almost, or soon will
be necessities) amounting to over one
thousand millions of dollars, have
been held up. 1t is customary for
railroads to prepare their budgets Of

budgets had been prepared on the
lines of necessities the outlook for
general business, particularly among
manufacturers, would be exceptional

have not been presented, and are not
within the call, or even within the
sight of those who would gladly well
come them, and it is doubtful when
we will be able to make any reason
able forecast in the manufacturing
and commercial world. 1t Is unques-
tionably true that the railroads would
gladly enter into year of liberal
expenditure, but as matters stand
now, it is quite possible that they will
be compelled to drop back into the
condition they were in the latter part
of 1907 and during the year 1908,
that is, purchase nothing except that
which is absolutely essential, and the
reasons are exactly the same as those
that existed in the early part Of 1907,

full of the causes of the depression of
1907 and 1908, and give every indi-

ALIOTMENTs TO INDIANS
Fort Hall Tribesmen Want More
Than 40 Acres Each Of Irri-
gated Lands

Pocatello Tribune
A "poWwow" of Indians on the
Fort Hall reservation was held at the
agency recently to discuss the matter
OF land allotments. Senator Hepburn
not long ago introduced bill in con-
gress providing for the allotment of
80 acres of agricultural land or 100
acres of grazing land to each mem
Der of the tribe. At the suggestion
of Major Frank Caldwell, the agency
superintendent, who recently visited
the national capital and conferred
with the senator, the bill was chang
ed to provide for 40 acres of agricul-
tural land. The Indians ask more
and the council was to discuss the
matter. Careful estimates indicate
that it will only be possible to allot
40 acre units Of irrigated land. This,
however, is deemed plentifully suffi-
cient, if properly farmed.

OPPORTUNITY

Master of human destinies am |,
Fame, love and fortune on my foot

Cities and fields l walk; / penetrate
Desert and seas remote, and passing

Hovel and mart of palace, soon or

If sleeping, wake-if feasting, rise

I turn away. 1t is the hour of fate,
And they who follow me reach every

Mortals desire, and conquer every

Save death; but those who doubt or

Condemned to failure, perjury or woe,

Answer to Opportunity

They do me wrong who say / come no
more
When once I call and knock and fail
to find you in
For every day l stand outside your
door,
And bid you wake and rise and fight
again,
Wait not for precious chances pass
ed away,
Weep not for golden chances on the
wane.
Each night burn the records of the
day
At sunrise every soul is born again.
Laugh like the boy at splendors that
have fed,
To Danish joys be blind and deaf and
dumb,
My judgment seals the dead past
with it's dead
But never binds moment yet TO
come.
Awake and grasp the chance with
out delay;
Tomorrow never comes-its just "to-
day."

gone. The dear old hickory nut,
