Show THE RESERVATION OPENING. Surveyor-General Anderson Is to be co'mplimented on the completion at this early day of all the field work on the surveys of the Uintah reservation. It has been a long Job to get this all done, and there were many obstacles In the way. But now that it Is finished, there will be ample time to prepare the maps, and ge't ready for the approval of the work In Washington, and the preparation prepara-tion of- the regulations, under the law, for the-openlng in March next. No doubt there will be many applicants appli-cants for tracts that may be taken nfter the Indian allotments are made, but there Is not likely to be nny great rush, as the method of drawing by lot for choice will no doubt prevail. The Rio Grande YVestem, it Is understood, is preparing to get out a folder in connection con-nection with this reservation opening, as txmo of the roodB did for the opening of the Roaebud reservation In South Dakota Da-kota last summer." |
