The opening of the Rosebud reservation is said to be possible without the signatures of the Ind ians , says the State Register. Yes , perhaps the white man , by force of intellect .and might may do it , for history may be searched in vain to find one instance where "the redman f man has not been worsted by his white brother in treaties. Greed has defrauded the Indians out of I ; all that was by God-given right theirs. Hot Springs Herald. ! Last Friday morning about 10 o'clock Church's barn was discov ered to be on fire. The alarm was immediately given and the fire de partment was soon on the scene of the conflagration. Owing to the length of hose required to get the water onto the lire , the.force was not great. The wind was blowing a gale and the fire spread 'rapidly. Finally a hose was connected with a.nearer hydrant .and two streams of water playing on the fire soon had it under control. Church's barn was wholly destroyed and W. S. Barker's , barn , coal shed and windmill tower were burned. The lo&s will probably not exceed 8800. lift origin ctf fcitf fire is aottaowa. > & go uu Dark Skirt : Gray --r 49 VVith cloth straps and ; buttons : ' Gbod'scliobl ekirt. § 2.75 & # Cadet Blue or Red Skirt * - V ' > ' ' " " | J JjjTrimmedprcttily W . . . with black braid. .i-v.
