Gregory, S. D., asks that an investiga-
ton be made of the charges of George
Silsbee, the Minnesota soldier, who in
letter recently forwarded to Repre-

hecting on the administration of Reg
lister Burns and Land Commissioner
bennett. Silsbse charged in substance
that he had been defrauded out of a
claim on Tripp county land in South

charge that Silsbee was used as a

asks that the case be placed in the

The three Americans who cNceiled AL

rewards formed the incentive for the

"Elated by his first success, man has

derstand perfectly yet the capabilities
and the limitations of the frail craft we
have built 10 navigate the air and have
presumed too much upon their strength.
In 1910. the world marvced at what
aviators did. In 1911, let il be shown
what they safely do. Let all the skill

OWNERS QUARREL OVER
WESTERN H0MING PIGEONS

CHICAGO, Jan. 2-Home rule for
homing pigeons and their owners will be
the keynote Of a meeting of the pigeon
flyers of tho middle west, to be held
next Saturday in this city. The pur
pose of the meeting will be to form an
association TO be known rs the West
ern Center Of the American Racing
Pigeon union.
The new organization is said to be
the result of dissatisfaction with the
present governing bodies, the National
Association of Homiug Pigeons and the
International Association of Homiug
Pigeons, towards districts far removed
from their respective headquarters in
Philadelphia and New York
Under the present arrangement,
pigeon men now say they are subject
to "taxation without representation, -
and it was to remedy this state Of af
fairs that the American Racing Pigeon
union sprang into existence.
"H ONE rule' is to be a factor, so
that each local club or district may ar
range its schedules and all matters per
tanning to clocking and handling the
birds to suit local conditions and fan
