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.

Stuleii"!s In Swimming Tank, They
Enter by Mistake Tries to Hide;
Is Stricken.
In his efforts to escape being seen
by a number of young women who
had entered the swimming room In
the gymnasium of the University of
Pennsylvania Charles R. Sauaders, a
student, was seized with a paralytic
stroke on Monday, says a Philadel
phia dispatch to Oregonian. He had
run from the edge of the pool to the
top of the marble stairs leading to the
locker room when the seizure came.
He fell to the bottom of the steps and
is not expected to recover.
Gills Get IiKo Wrong Room.
The out of door exercises of the
graduating class were held on the
campus outside the gymnasium Mon
day. Half way through the program
a heavy shower of rain fell and the
audience sought shelter in the gym
nasium. A party of young women
unacquainted with the building made
their way to the swimming pool.
Saunders and a score of other stu
dents were grouped on the tiled edge
of the pool, resting. Suddenly the
doors opened and a crowd of bewil
dered young women crowded Into the
room. Then seeing the bathers they
shrieked and made a hurried exit.
Most of the students dived at once
Into the water, but Saunders started
to run up the marble steps that led
to the dressing rooms. As he reach
ed the top of the landing the students
In the water were surprised to see
him halt suddenly, then topple to the
bottom. He was picked up bleed
ing and unconscious. Dr. G. T. Lub
kens was called and he declared
Saunders was a victim of a paralytic
stroke. Induced by over-excitement.
Saunders Is a resident of Phlladel
phla, Is 21 years old and was a spe
cial student In the Wharton School of
Finance.
