SETTLERS COMPLAIN
OF POOR SURVEYS
INACCURACIES OF WORK DONE
IN LAYING OUT GOVERNMENT
LANDS FOR THE HOME.
STEADERS.

Pierre, S. D.-The people of the
northwestern part of the state are
beginning early to make complaint
as to the government contract sur
veys in that section. When the
land was surveyed it was not con-
sidered to be very valuable, and the
same care was not used as might be
in older sections. AS a result claims
are made that one settler gets more
than his $50 acres, while another
gets less. In fact the survey work
on public lands, all by contract APP
pears to have been unsatisfactory.
The last legislative session provided
by legislation for resuryeys for the
purpose of taxation, to charge against
a man the taxes for the acreage he
really owns instead of 100 acres on
a quarter section" as there is con-
siderable range in many of them. 1t
is alleged hat in some of the early
surveys in the territory the work
was done by tying a rag to a spoke in
a wagon wheel, and the necessary
revolutions counted for distance,
while another man with a transit
kept course" as a third drove accord
ing to his instructions. The Indians
on Crow creek reservation say the
work was done on that reserve in the
winter, and the section II we're
built of snow by the thrifty contract
ors. While this may or may not be
true, it carries some evidence Of
fact for the reason that the whites
who have made purchases claim
there is positively nothing to be
found to in any way mark many
corners on that tract, and if the
marks We're not made of snow, they
were but little more substantial, as
they have disappeared and cannot
be located by any surveyor.

SCANDlNAVIANS TO
HAVE

Webster, S. D.-The Scandinavians
of Webster and Day counties have
started a movement looking towards
a rather extensive celebration on
June { next. South Dakota, and
this part of the state in particular,
has a large percentage of these peo-
pie, and they feel that the event is
one that is worthy of commemora-
ton.
Committees have been selected
with a view to taking care of the va
rious features of the proposed cele-
bration. The program will consist of
addresses in English, Swedish and
Norwegian. There will also be am
pie provisions for music. Popular
sports will also be amply provided
for. The plan is to have a celebra-
ton for the entire northeastern part
of the state. From the indications it
is safe to say that the gathering will
be a largee and enthusiastic one.
