GAMBLE WOULD OPEN
MORE INDIAN LANDS
INTRODUCES MEASURES CALLING;
FOR THE OPENING OF NRAR.
LY 100000 ACRES IN THE
DAKOTAs.

Washington, d. C.-Senator Gam
Die introduced in the senate a bill to
open to settlement all the remain
Ing surplus and u~nallotted lands in
the Standing Rock Indian reserva-
ton in North and South Dakota. ae-
gregating upwards of 100000
acres. The bill carries an appropria-
ton OF $4,000, to be paid by the
United States to the Indians for the
school lands.
He also introduced a bill to open
to settlement all the remaining sur-
plus and unallotted lands on the
cheyenne Indian reservation in
South Dakota. aggregating 1.2oo,-
900 acres. The bill carries an appro-
priation Of 100000. to be paid by
the government for the school lands
donated to the state. Senator Gamble
passed both Of these bills through
the senate in the last congress, but
they failed in the house.
Senator Gamble also introduced a
bill to open all the remaining surplus
and unallotted lands in the Rosebud
indian reservation within Todd a,
Bennett counties. aggregating over
100000 acres. and appropriating
$4,000 to be paid by the govern
ment for the school lands donated

course Of a year or two the same con-
ditions would arise as at the present
time.
When the above resolution was
presented an hour or. more was con-
sumed in discussing the features of
it and a motion was introduced to
eliminate the last clause as being
unnecessary. The discussion that
followed this gave evidence that
some thought the adoption of the
resolution meant that the company's
franchise would be extended for a
much longer period. The resolu-
ton was stated by the chairman to
be in strict harmony with the lines
along which the city council was pro-
ceeding and that the adoption or re-
lection of it would give the council
some idea as to how the business
men of the city felt toward the propo-
sition.
When the discussion had about
reached the limit Of exhaustion a
vote>w taken on the resolution end
1t was carried by II to 9, a number
of men having left the room before
the vote was taken.
Whether an expression from such
a small percentage of the business
interests will be favorably regarded
by the council is a question, and it
is possible that a petition opposing
can be secured, and which may be
done.
There was one thing brought out
concerning the rate question which
many were unacquainted with, and
that is the power of either the COM
pany or the council to fix the rates.
This is left wholly to the railroad
commission. 1t is possible for the
council and the company to agree up
on a rate for this city, but not at all
likely. and II such is the case the
commission will simply endorse the
action.
The investigation that was made
by Auditor Ness in the east soma
time ago and which was published
through these columns leads to the
belief that a less rate can De made
for Mitchell than was stated by Mr..
Zeitlow. so that in all probability IL
the automatic is adopted for Nit
chell the question Of rates will have
to be decided by the state railroad
commission.
Mr.. Zeitl stated that 1t was the
desire Of the company to give Nit
chell people good service, as they
could not afford to do otherwise. At
the present time material was being
awaited to be installed which would

BAZAAR AMI SUPPER.

lEE FrEnEA sly r&H m4E
Wednesday afternoon and evening
occurred the annual bazaar and sup
per given by the ladies of the Con-
gregational church, which was held
In the basement. Some four or five
booths were decorated nicely in
which the articles were placed for
sale. The sale began in the after
noon and very many patrons called
to make purchases of the great va
riety Of articles which were on dis
play. In the evening at $3.50 o'clock
the ladies arranged for a supper. and
until nearly 2 o'clock the tables
were occupied with patrons who have
come to know the value Of a supper
at this church. "A fine menu was pre-
pared for the occasion and It was
served In q manner that satisfied all.
Additional sales were made during
the supper hour. many Of the patrons
waiting until they went to the sup
per before making their purchases.
After counting up the sales Of the
bazaar and supper the sum realized
was about $3.50, Of which. a very
large portion was profit, and will be
turned into the treasury for future

outgrow itself, so that with it once
installed all possibility Of being oy-
ercrowded was eliminated. He be-
lieved that with the automatic once
installed people would v give it
up.
Asked as to rates, Mr.. Zeitlow
stated that he had made out a ten
tative rate of $500 a month for
business phones, $500 for residence
and $3.50 for party lines. These
rates however, would have to be
agreed upon by the city council and
the company, al neither had the pow
err to fix a rate to which any person
had objections. Mr.. Zeitlow stated
that the party lines could be INSTALL
ed cheaper and that very good SER
vice could be rendered, the only
trouble being that there might be
collisions in trying to use the phone
at the same time, but there would
not be the same opportunity for
"rubbering" on the line, as it could
be detected instantly.
All that the company desired. Mr..
Zeitlow said. was that 1t should be
granted a fair rate of interest on the
investment, taking the new build
ing, the better equipment, and the
expense of operation into considera-
talon. Asked as to the central en-
ergy system. Mr.. zeitlow stated
that it was good, but that it would
cost practically the same as the au-
tomato.
After Mr.. Zeitlow had completed
his remarks the question was open
for discussion. Perhaps a dozen or
fifteen men presented their views on
the system, some of which were of a
scorching nature in their comments
about the service that is being rem
dered by the local company, and sew
eral queries we're put to the presi-
dent why it was that such poor SER
vice was given. He stated that the
boards at the Office were crowded to
their utmost capacity. and that with
the vast number of calls coming in
the central girls could not attend to
all Of them at the same time, which
necessarily delayed an answer. He
said l. could not be improved upon
by the addition of another board for
the reason that lAls would make just
one more connection for the girls to
make and added one more possible
ity for errors and the further delay
Of having calls answered promptly.
Mr.. Zeitlow stated that the pres
ent system could be moved to the new
building and . few additions made
for temporary relief but that in .

present local Telephone system now in
operation in Mitchell:
Now. therefore, be it resolved by
the business men of Mitchell, South
Dakota, that in their judgment, a
new and improved local telephone ex-
change in the city of Mitchell that
will compare favorably with exchang-
es now in operation in the cities OF
our state, Of the population and i'm
portance Of Mitchell, is very desira-
Bile and should be obtained as soon
as practicable.
"And be 1t further resolved that
the said business men express theif
willingness to pay an increased rate
for such improved local telephone
service should such increase in rates
be shown to be necessary in order
to yield a reasonable return to the
owners Of said telephone exchange
on their investment"
In response to an invitation to at
tend a meeting for the discussion of
the installation Of a better telephone
system in this city about forty bust
ness men met at the city hall Friday
evening. President Burns Of the
Commercial club presided during the
evening. The men we're called there
to discuss the questions outlined in
the above resolutions, but before the
vote was taken on the same, the dis
cussion drifted off into different
channels and at times the discussion
was tinged with more or less acidity.

Central, together with Secretary
Bickelhaupt and Auditor George.
were at the meeting and president
presented the situation OF the COM
pany. He stated briefly that the
company at the present time has out
grown Its facilities in the old build
ing and that 1t was desired to move
into the new structure, but before
doing SO the company found 1t necs-
sary to install a new system. At pres
ent there are over 1000 phones in
use here and Mr.. Zeitlow said that
1t was impossible to make any addi-
lions to the system, except by an ex-
tension, and this they were provid-
ing for and would be done as soon
as the material arrived.

lures Of the automatic phone by
stating that it, absolute secrecy, al

was some six months ago and which
many of the speakers agreed was
very good at the time.
City Attorney Miller relieved the
tension somewhat when he stated
what connection the mayor and him
self had in the framing Of the reso-
luton and in the course Of his re-
marks assured the men present that
the resolution in its entirety would
have no bearing whatever on the
franchise question, and that it was
merely for the purpose Of conveying
to the council the attitude OF the
business interests on the improved

oEcALoeUEs FOR DAUGHTERS
Chicago Pastor EnJoIns Against Sc
erets, Frlvolitles and Drink

Chicago, Nov. 19.-The Rev. W. b.
Willard, pastor of the Park Congrega-
tiona church. who has attracted some
attention by the issuance OF novel
decalogues regarding the duties and
obligations of husbands to wives and
vice versa, today promulgated the
following ten commandments for
daughters.
Thou shalt not deceive thy
mother
Thou shalt not exchange the
bloom of innocence for the favor and
contempt of any man
3. Thou shalt not esteem silk pet.
ticoats and diamond rings as of great
er value than the family's general
welfare
Thou shalt not regard fattery
and false pretense as the highway to
popularity.
5.-Thou shalt not gossip.
Chou shalt not use loud speech
nor bold manner to attract attention
Thou shalt not think more OF
the culture Of thy heels than thy
head.
S.-Thou shalt not hold the cup to
thy brothers. lips. nor to the lips OF
somebody else's brother.
9-Thou shalt not initiate the fine
ladys language while thy mother
washes the dishes and sweeps the
house
10--Thou shalt find JOY in the ser
vice of God, who created thee.
In explaining to his congregation
the decalogue for daughters. DR. Mil
lard took occasion to say:
"A girl should have no secrets
from her mother, because where
there is a se0retiveness there is
something wrong The attentions OF
young men are hattering and Devil
dering to the young debutante Girls
tell your mother about it, and there
will be no vain regrets later on.
The average society girl wastes
enough time on dancing, cards and
other frivolities, to perfect herself
in music, literature or any one of a
score of accomplishment
"Womans greatest enemy is alco
hol II is to her interest TO have
men kind and sober. It is therefore
nothing short of crime for a young
woman to preside at a punch bowl al
a reception and offer liquor to men.
