POTOSI SCHOOLMAAM
IN LAND DRAWING
Gets No. 1892 in Rosebud and
Pine Ridge Opening.
Miss Anna Kress Will Homestead Her
Claim Boscobel Man Said to Have
Made a Very Lucky Draw.

In the recent land drawing which
took place at Gregory, s. D. for the
Rosebud and Pine Ridge reservations
thrown open to the public, NUM- Der
of entries had been made by Grant
county people. There were 1000 mum.
bers drawn the first day, 1900 the So.
cond day and 5000 the third day,
eight thousand In all. OF course
there will be xcany who drew favor
ablo chances that will not appear to
claim their chance, and such will be
passed, giving the next higher mum
Der just SO much better opportunity
for making a selection. Any thing
within the first 1000 numbers drawn
is considered good chance.
Miss Anna Kress, a popular and
very capable scboolmaam living in
the north part of Potosi township. in
the Boice Greek neighborhood. has
been advised that she has drawn
number 1882 She expects that there
will be enough claims forfeited to
give her chance somewhere in the
100 or 1900 class, which ought to get
her a very desirable claim. Miss
Krsss says it is her intention to
homestead the claim if she gets
a good one.
Glenn Hoffman, of this city. made
an entry, but does not seem to have
been among the lucky ones 1t is
rumored that Jonathan Walker, of
Of Boscobel, was among the first 100
whose number was drawn but we
nave not heard the rumor confirmed.
The first number drawn, and con-
sequently the first pick IN the allot.
ments, belongs to poor woman in
Rapid CITY. S. D who has an in
valid husband. Her chance is various
ly estimated as being worth anywhere
from 500, 90 to $25, 900.
There is one peculiar thing about
these drawings They constitute what
anybody must concede is a lottery
pure and SIMPLE. but are conducted
by the government and are given
publicity through the newspapers
and other public prints by govern
ment sanction and direction. This
appears to be the only kind Of lottery
business that the postofice department
looks upon as legal.
Should local merchant offer a
prize to the person who guesses near
est to the actual number of beans
contained in jar. making no charge
for the guess, the postoffice depart
ment says 1t it lottery and illegal.
and the newspaper that publishes the
name of the W nner is very likely to be
denied admission to the mails because
of such publication
This seems to us foolish and in
consistent Genuine lotteries are an
evil and should be abolished. but to
apply the restrictions now applied to
publicity concerning turkey rattle or
an innocent guessing contest looks
like highly overdrawn interpreta.
