TO HUBS III MONTANA RESERVATIONS READY IX) R SETTLERS THEN One Contains Million Acres Usual Proccrdnre of Registration and Drawing Will Probably Prevail FUUiead and Fort Pock Are Che To Reserves in Question. Montana's two Indian reservations, for which provision has been made, will not be thrown open to settlers until 1909, at the earliest These res ervations are the Flathead .and the Fort Peck, In northeastern and north western Montana. In the Flathead more than 1,000, 000 acres of land will be disposed of, and the Indians of the reservation have already been allowed their tracts and the land that remains to be dis posed of by the government Is very desirable. The fortunate ones in the government drawing will secure some of the finest homesteads in the coun try, and It is expected that thou sands of homeseekers will flock to western Montana and eastern Mon tana when these reservations are thrown open. The land will be thrown open to settlement In the .customary manner. There will be a proclamation from the president, which shall prescribe the time for opening. No one will be permitted to settle upon or make en try of the lands, except as provided In the proclamation, and judging from the present this will be under the provisions of the homestead law. The price of the land shall be the appraised value, as fixed by the com mission. Settlers under the home stead law who shall reside upon and cultivate the land for five years, as required by the homestead laws, shall pay one-third of the homestead value in cash at the time of entry and the remainder In lve equal Installments, to be paid In one, two, three, four and five years, respectively, after the date o? entry. If desired, commutation proof can be made at the end of 14 months' residence and cultivation, and the full payment of the balance of the pur-1 chase price at that time. Mineral lands shall be disposed of under the United States mining laws, the timber lands will be sold to the Jllghest bidder for cash at public auc tion. W. F. Hubbart, one of the members of the Flathead appraising commls sion, says that it is his opinion that the reservation can not be opened foi settlement before next May, despite the fact that the work of the ap praisal is being pushed to completion with all possible rapidity. There are 16 appraisers at work at present, and with this force it will take until some time in November to finish the esti mating. The Fort Peck reservation Is about SO miles long, 140 miles wide, em bracing 1.776.000 acres of unallotted land. This reservation is traversed by the Great Northern railway, and according to latest statistics there are a little over 1700 Indians on It having tribal rights. The reclamation service, it is be lieved, will Install an Irrigation sys tem near the Missouri river, embrac ing something like 80,000 acres of land, of a very fertile nature, and which will probably be limited to 80 acre tracts for settlers. The bill providing for the opening of this reservation carries an appro priation of 1200.00 for the purpose of constructing the irrigation system. There are no mineral lands and but very little timber of this reservation. There are some tracts of lignite coal of a low grade In the vicinity of the lands sought to be covered by the irrigation project, which will fur nish excellent fuel. In the Fort Peck reservation it is probable that with the exception of the 80,000 acres referred to that dry land farming, so called, will probably be utilized to a great extent. This will also be tried on portions of the Flathead reservation, where the rain fall Is not great. The Flathead reservation is also no ted for Its fruits and orchards, and between the two Montana's popula tion will be greatly increased by the opening. claims to have heard Burden say, just before the man fell, "I'll teach you to come up here and make a rough house." The body Is lying at the Anderson undertaking parlors. The coroner will come tomorrow morning. A special policeman has been put on watch at the jail, so that no one can confer with Burden, This Is the first death that has occurred In Palouse under suspicious circumstances for "many years and the people are considerably wrought up over the affair.
