INDIAN PROBLEM
PUZZLER UNDER
NEW BOND LAWS
Redskins Entitled to Aid Either
From County or From Fed
. eral Government

Fort Yates, N. D., March but one
petition for aid under the, new feed
and seed bonding law, containing the
signatures of 20 farmers, has been re-
ceived by the Sioux county commits
sion. The county's Indian farmers are
to be taken care OF. Supt. Kitch has
contracted for '$l2,500 worth of seed
grain to be distributed to reservation
redskins on the government REIN
bursement plan. The seed will be de-
liyered and ready to plant by May /.
Trust Indians will first be provided
with seed. II any then remains over
fee-Datent Indians will be supplied on
the same basis. It is probable that a
number OF the latter class OF Indians
will have to rely on the county for
seed. 1t is held that it will be impos-
sible for the county to furnish seed
to renters on trust-patcnt Indian land,
for the reason that the application
must be signed by the owner of the
land. The county board is meeting
today to take further action. 1t was
that the additional fifty
petitioners required to give the board
power to act would have filed by the
hour OF the meeting.

CITY
AND MANDAN
CLASH TONIGHT

bismarck and Mandan clash at the
high school gymn this evening In a
p0st-seasOn contest which promises
to be the most exciting game OF the
season. Mandan has twice defeated
Bismarck, by close scores. Bismarck
lost by wide margin to Fargo, which
was defeated by almost as wide a mar
gin by Mandan. This leads to much
speculation as to the outcome OF to-
nights game and presages a record
attendance. All of the old rivalry
which ever has existed between the
high schools OF the twin cities OF the
Slope Is concentrated on this even
ing's battle.
