The Chippewa Indian reservation bill finally passed the lower house of congress ‘on Thursday of this week. When the bill secures the president's signature and is ia fact a law, it will mean the opening of a vast timber country, rich in soil, to agricultural purposes, and that the Indians will at last, after many years, be given money on the timber lands of the re- 4 servations due them.

They are putting six drills at work on the old Vermilion Iron company and the Bovey DeLaitre lands, which are situated in 56-24 and 55-25.

But it appears that a conspiracy was entered into bya few controlling members of the Duluth gang to suppress Mr. Jellison and thus injure his campaign. Mr. Jelli- son said that the people of Itasca eounty would resent the insult thus tendered to one of our most conspicu- ous and prominent citizens. “This is what he said to the Duluth News Tribune: ‘Jesse L.
