URGE RELIEF FOR
MINNESOTA INDIANS

Washington, Jan. pa delegation
Of five Mile Laos Indians is in
Washington to ask congress for relief.
There are about 400 members of this
band living around Mile Laos lake
who have refused to take allotments
on the White Earth reservation, and.
the secretary Of the interior has asked
congress to appropriate $40, 900 for the
purchase of lands on which they can,
be located.
The matter has been presented to
Representative Miller, who is a mem
bar of the committee on indian affairs,
and he says that 100000 is not enough
to provide homes for all the Mile Laos
who are living around Mile Laos lake.
AS a temporary measure, Mr.. Miller
will try to have an application made
for the erection Of schools and to pro-
vide for the service of q physician for
this band. The matter of providing
lands, he says, ought not to be acted
on until a thorough investigation has
been made and congress is informed
Of just what the Indians need. He
will, therefore, ask the Indian commit
tee to insert a provision in the Indian
appropriation bill directing the COM
missioner Of Indian affairs to make a
thorough Investigation, and to report
to congress at the beginning of the next
session.
Rev. Frank H. Piquette and Mike
Diver, chief Of the Fond du Lac In
| dians of Minnesota, are in WASHINGTON
looking after the affairs Of their
| tribeSmen.

SAYS G. N. TRAIN
SERVICE IS fine
OFFICIAL OF THAT ROAD TELLS
OF TRAINS BETWEEN MiNOT
AND FARGO AND THE TWIN
CITIES AND CAN'T UNDER
STAND KICK.

That Minot has excellent service,
both from and to that city, service
that is not equaled by any one rail-
road between the twin cities and
Chicago, Is the contention Of L.. L.
LaHue, travelling passenger agent Of
that road who was in Fargo this week.
Mr.. LaRue made the statement while
discussing the news of a protest, that
Minot papers have made and which
has been sent out from the magic
city, against alleged poor service by
the Great Northern.
Il can't understand what kick
Minot can have said Mr.. LaRue.
"They have several daylight trains
both ways, not only over the line via
Grand Forks but also over the Surrey
cutoff.
mo 4 leaves Minot at $50 a. m,
and gets to Fargo at $40 p. m, get
ting to the twin cities that same
evening. That train runs via Devils
Lake and Grand Forks and gives
Minot a crack through train to the
twin cities by daylight.
NO. 2 leaves Minot at 4:3O p. m.,
gets to New Rockford at 7:45 and ar
rives in Fagro that same evening at
1870.
NO. 200 leaves Minot at $50 a. m,
gets to New Rockford at 1 p. m. and
arrives in Fargo at 7:45 p. m.
Going the other way there is splen-
did service. No. ! leaves Fargo at
6:15 p. m. and arrives in Minot at
2:15 a. m.
No 30 and No. 5 make a daylight
train to Minot with one change of
cars. Leaving Fargo at 6:1O a. m,
can get to MinOt at 6:45 p. m, US
ing these trains and going via Grand
Forks and Devils Lake.
No. 1919 goes via New Rockford. 1t
leaves Fargo at : a. m, and gets to
Minot at 6 p. m.
There are several other combina-
tons and we have spared no pains or
expense to give excellent local service
between Minot, Devils Lake and Grand
Forks, and between Minot, New Rock
ford and Fargo. AS I said before, the
service actually beats the service of
any n Dad between the twin cities
and Chicago"

Eveninr Grain Letter.

Chicago, Jan. 21.-Wheat: The tone
Of the wheat market has been strong
with a fair advance in prices due TO
the strong cable list, bullish Argentine
advices and to the reports Of good eX-
port sales. Weather conditions seq
son Die over the belt with a little
light precipitation. While there is a
little export business being done IN
wheat, it will have to be broader 10
create an outlet for our surplus stocks.
Corn-The market for corn showed
surprising strength due largely to COW
ering by shorts. Local sentiment was
a little more bullish but the cash situa-
ton Is not changed for the better WIN
big stocks and slim prospects Tor any
export outlet this season, together with
the lessened farm consumption. we can
not see whore there is any basis for a
rally except on pit conditions. on any
upturn due to oversold pit conditions
we believe sales should be made.
Oats--Undertone has been firm but
mainly in sympathy with the advance
in other grains.

FORECLOSURE AT
GAINESVILLE, MINI.

Papers were filed in the district
court in Moorhead last night at the
instance of the Imperial Elevator Co.,
Barnesville, represented by Marden &
Pomeroy, in foreclosure proceedings
in connection with the erection of a
potato warehouse at GAINESVILLE al
legged to have been erected by Mr..
Cary. and one phase Of the troubles
which the Red River Valley Potato
Growers Co, GAINESVILLE, has been
plunged INTO.
The elevator company forecloses to
recover Its pay for lumber and &C.
ment, $1.800 worth. used in the struc-
ture. In the natural course Of events
n as a result of this move foreclos-
ures will be filed in the interest Of
other parties who have bills against
the building for supplies.
Another phase of the tangle is that
the unpaid for potato house stands on
a site owned by two parties, twenty
five feet by the GAINESVILLE National
bank and forty-fve feet by Tom Cum
ness, but very likely this phase of the
bad business tangle will be amicabLs
adjusted, as the interest of the parties
was to help, what they anticipated at
the time, a prominent local enterprise.
