Secretary of State w. f.. Chaplin on
the subject of the new road being built
from Laramie TO Brooklyn Lake and
the very beautiful adjacent country on
the Snowy Range. In concluding his
article. Mr.. Chaplin says:
over to the west of where the road
now ends. II n little to the south, lies
Lake Marie. 1t is the head of French
Greek, which cuts through the range
and runs down to the Platte. Through
this pass the highway should be ear
ried on by Carbon county and the fed
eral government, just as Albany county
and the forest service are building it
up this side. 1t should be extended on
to Medicine Bow Lodge and thence to
Saratoga. The descent on the west
side can be made with just as much
ease as the ascent ON this side. This
road could then serve as an important
link in the Lincoln highway during the
summer season, and it would also be
direct connection with the projected
Mountain highway from Denver to

SIOUX TRIBES TO PUSH
CLAIM FOR BLACK HILLS
Ask Refund of Many Millions for
HOmestake Mine AlOne-PrOmi-
nent Law Firm Engaged.

With the prestige of Charles +.
Hughes, secretary of state, and his law
firm, to push it along, the suit of the
Sioux Indian tribes for possession of
the famous Black Hills, with all the
great gold mines, has at last actually
got under way. 1t is the largest claim
ever filed against the United States
Government, and totals more than a
billion dollars. For twenty-five years
the Sioux have threatened the suit.
In fact the Sioux had threatened so
much and so often that but little at
tention was paid. But last week
Charles Il. Hughes, Jr.. son of his
father and successor of Mr.. Hughes in
the latter's law business. accompanied
by other members of the law firm, met
ten representative Sioux Indians from
ten reservations in South Dakota.
North Dakota, Montana and Wyoming.
and completed plans t. push the claims
for the property. Within the next
three months a second meeting will be
held between Mr.. Hughes and the red
men. In the interim the Indians will
search for evidence to prove their
claims.
The Indians claim they never coded
their trans-Missouri hunting grounds
to the whites. They claim that treat
les were switched" on them and that
the one which passed congress was
moi the treaty to which they had
agreed.
In last weeks meeting with Mr..
Hughes N his colleagues it developed
that the Sioux want the value of the
land in question, not the land itself.
