recipient of a visit on Tuesday and
Wednesday of this week from Hon.
Samuel r. VanSant of Minnesota.
who will be remembered as twice
governor of that state and also as
past COMMANDMENTS Chief of the
Grand Army Of the Republic. The
Ex-Governor is the protector and
primeyal author of much of the
railroad reform legislation that is
now crystalized into statutory law

magnates as j. j. Hill and others.
He is a millionaire and founder of
one of the largest fiscal institu-

The South Dakota State Board
of Agriculture desires the govern
ment to give permission to 1875
Grow Greek aud Lower Brule In
dians to leave their reservation to
attend the State Fair, at Huron, in
September.
Acting upon . request of ofiic-
ials of the Fair, Representative
Burke has iaAcs the matter up
with Cato Sells, commissioner of
Indian affairs. The policy of the
Indian office is to discourage wild
west exhibitions on the part of the
Indians. The commissioner last
weektrefused tosal!ow the Indians
Eof a Colorado reservation to take
part in carnival.
The Indian Office is willing that
the goverl,mentN Indian shall at
tend agricultural fairs and make
exhibitions Of, their farm products;
in faetsinS enGotsS,ages this, for it
tends to show>tbe progress of their
civilization. But it will not permit
them to exhibit themselves painted
and bedecked as savages.
Much interest was shown by the
Indians who attended the recent
Episcopal Convocation at Sisseton
Agency, in the progress being
made by the Indians of the Chey-
enne River Reservation, as report
ed in late issue of this paper.
| One of the attendants was Red
Eagle, of Cheyenne Agency, who,
in response to request to talk,
addressed the meeting, urging his
hearers to become self-support-
ing people, by following the exam
pie of the white man in the matter
of tilling the soil and raising stock,
showing that the chances for fall
ing into evil ways were lessened by
having some work to do and some
thing to look forward to besides
receiving the meagre and some
times inadequate allowance dealt
out to them by the Washington
office.
These remarks were we'll receiv.
ed. showing that the assembled In.
dians were in accord with Rec
Eagles sentiments, and showing
|also that they were capable o1
viewing conditions as they exist
today, in clear light, which is {
hopeful sign indeed. ~
