Congress, and many different plans for
such a memorial were discussed. But
it was not until February 9. 1911. that
an act Of Congress was finally ap-
proved by President Taft providing
for the appointment of the Lincoln
memorial commission to select a memo
rial to Lincoln and authorizing the
expenditure of 100000. This was but
the first step. however. and after the
commission had selected site and
picked out the design for the memo
rial Congress had to place its approval
upon the commissions action. The Lin
coin memorial commission was aided
in its work by the national commits
sion of fine arts.
The approval of Congress for the
erection Of the memorial was not
gained without many heated debates
in which other proposed memorials
were advocated. among them a Lin
coin Highway from Washin gton to the
battlefield of Gettysburg, Pa: an arch
on Meridian Hill. 10th street; Fort
Stevens. five miles north Of the city
of Washington; a memorial bridge

signs. Mr.. Bacon was requested to pre-
pare a design for the site in Potomac
Park. which was originally selected
by the park commission more than
decade ago and approved by the ma
tional fine arts commission. Mr.. Pope
was requested to prepare designs for
sites in the Soldiers Home grounds
These designs were submitted to the
commission in 1911. and after careful
consideration and consultation with the
fine arts commission, the Potomac Park
site and design were selected. Mr.. Ba-
cons design was adopted, and he is
the architect in charge of the work.
The Potomac Park site was selected
originally because it is on the axis of
the Capitol and the Washington Monu

Features Of Memorial.

The memorial as designed by Mr. Ba-
con will consist of four main features,
a statue of Lincoln, memorial of his
Gettysburg speech, a memorial Of his
second inaugural speech and 4 symbol
of the union of the United Sta ties. Mr..
Bacon said in regard to these features:
1.-The most important object is the
statue of Lincoln, which is placed in
the center of the memorial. This por-
ton OF the memorial where the statue
is placed will be unoccupied by any
other object that would detract from
its effectiveness. and the visitor will be
alone with it.
1.-The smaller halls at each side Of the
central space will each contain a. me-
morial--one of the second inaugural
and the other of the Gettysburg ad-
dress. These speeches will be shown
by bronze letters arranged on a monu-
ment tablet. and adjacent low reliefs
or decoration will relate in allegory
Lincoln,s great qualities evident in
those speeches.
'"Surrounding the walls inclosing
these memorials OF the man is planned
a colonnade forming a symbol of the
Union, each column representing a
state-thirty-six in all-for each state
existing at the time of Lincolns death,
and on the walls appearing above the
.colonnade and supported at intervals
by eagles are forty-eight memorial
festoons. one for each state existing
at the present time.

FARM LAND SALE
Golden Opportunity for Investors and
Home Seekers.

home seekers.
The Iodian Department is again
Offering a large tract of land for
sale, on the Cheyenne River Res
ervation, under the most liberal
terms and prices ever offered be-
fore, bids to be opened at Chey-
enne Agency S D, opposite Forest
City, on August 18th.
In this list can be found lands
in almost any section of the Res
ervation and convenient to any of
the various towns, and in various
sized tracts. Some of these lands
are grazing lands, while much of
it is as fine farming land as can
be found. Grazing lands can be
had at from 81 to $3.50 per acre,
while farming lands range from
about IS to Sl5 per acre. The
terms of sale are most lib
eral, being Is per cent down, and
the balance in three equal pay
ments payable in two, four and six
years, drawing six per cent inter
est.
In purchasing these lands the
investor secures almost the same
terms as in demonstrating, while it
is not necessary for him to reside
upon or even improve the land,
and he can buy as much as he
likes. This is the opportunity the
ordinary investor has been looking
for, and the prices and terms are
the most liberal eyer offered in
this section.
If possible make a personal in
spection of such tracts as may in
terest you in any particular locali-
ty, or if unable, have some reliable
party make q report to you, then
comply with the advertised terms
of the sale. The former red tape
measures Of the Indian Office have
been modified, So that there IS now
only the ordinary delay in awards
and issue of patents"
This move means as much to
Forest City and Cheyenne Agency
assit does to other towns situated
on the Reservation. Many Of the
tracts lie but . short Distance from
