Yest e signed letlers addressed to the agents at the Cheyeuno River, Crow Creck, Lower Brule,Pine Ridge, Standin and Rosebud agencies, all on the great Sioux reservation, to issue invita tions to the varions bands fo_ attend grand feasts to be held at those agencies September It is intended to count these band: el place and thus arrive at some approxi- mate idea of the number on- the resery Aceording to the ecensus of 14° there are in the neighboreood of thirty thousand Indi on the great Sioux reservation, but Major Bell's last count at Pine ridge shows some twenty-three hundred less than has yearly heen provided for thereand the comm Issioner is of the opinion that the same state of affairs exists at the other agencies, The trouble has been that heretofore the Indians have gone to one ageney to draw supplies, and then hastened off to others to f rations. As a result many Indians have Leen counted twice, and by giving these feasts simultancously the ~commissioners Lopes to get these lndians connted all at once. The commissioner has already eut down the rations at Pine Ridge, and hopes to be able to make some saving by the above plan.
