Pierre.-The strain of being good a
dong time is too much for even a com.
petent Indian.
Last week Secretary of the Interior
Franklin K. Lane came west to confer
the degree Of citizenship on several
Indians of middle west reservations
who had been declared competent to
manage their own affairs. The secre.
tary conducted the ceremony at Green.
wood, S. D., and later similar ceremo.
nles were held at Ponca, Neb., head
quarters of the Santee reservation,
sOne of the acts of the ceremony was
the shooting Of an arrow into the air
by the leader of the new citizen In
dians. The Indian chosen for this
great honor at Ponca was Moses Red
Owl. Day School Inspector s. Toledo
Sherry, who made an address at the
ceremony referred to him as the
Moses who was to help lead the red
men into citizenship.
Moses got his citizenship and his
land patent and the next day he start
ed to celebrate. He crossed the river
to Springfield, S. D., where he indulged
IN lot of red liquor. He got drunk,
was arrested and landed in the bastile.
Thus Moses proved his anxiety to en-
Mlate the white man in every little par.
2icular.
Over 100 new patents to farms in
South Dakota have been issued to com.
petent Indians at the Yankton reserva-
tion since Secretary of the Interior
Lane returned east from the ceremo.
my at Greenwood. At the time of the
ssecretary's visit $50 patents were is.
sued, so now more than $50 Indians in
South Dakota own their own farms
with no strings attached to their own
ership.
Thirty-four Indians who had been
declared competent were refused their
land patents by Secretary Lane be.
cause he had been informed that they
had made contracts to sell the land to
land sharks as soon as they should re-
ceive title. The secretary had been
warned by telegram by Homer w.
johnson of Sioux City, and others,
that land sharks were preparing to
make victims of the Indians. When
he arrived at Greenwood he held an
all night hearing, calling many of the
Indians to testify. One of them ad.
mitted it and then 33 others con-
fessed to having made deals to dis
pose of their lands. These "a were
refused patents, and the secretary
;, urged the Indians to hold their lands
as long as they lived.

CAPT O'BRlEN DEAD
Indian FIGHTER and Plainssaan
Succumbs After Illness of
Few Weeks

Capt. Nicholas J. O Brien. he
70 Of many an Indian battle and
one of the pioneers of the west,
died at his home in Denver after
AN illness of three weeks. The
Captain will be remembered by
the more earlier settlers of Jules
burg and vicinity. He was -
years old. The Rocky Noun
tain News gives the following in-
teresting sketch of his adventur-
Gus lie:
"The death of Captain O. Brien
who WAS noted plainsman and
the her" of the fight of Julesburg
Fort in 1865, has broken one
more link in the chain of years
which binds the present to the
eIoch-making events of the eatly
west. The life Of Captain O'Brien
replete with the romance, heroism
and adventure which marked
every day Of a pioneers existance
reads like the epitome of Il mar
vellous play.
Juleshurg. when he first came
to the Fort, was a remote, parti-
ally manned structure on the
furthes, edge of civilization, es-
tablished to keep peace among
the Indians and to protect what
ever frontiersmen Or travellers
over the plains.
In 1865 the Indians took the
war path and pillaged and ruin
ed homes and slaughtered scores
of men and their families. Thru
the hero1sm and quick decision
Of Capt. O'Brien, then in COM
pie charge Of the Fort, the up
rising of the savages was quilted
and the chiefs brought to law.
He was born in Ireland and
saw service in several engage
ments as captain Of the Seventh
Iowa regulars. He was a mem.
ber of the Loyal Legion officers
of the civil war and is past com.
mander of the G. A. r. of Colo
RADIO and Wyoming"
