For A large delegation of Pottawatomie Indians was in town last Saturday making the transfer of their inherited lands to citizen buyers. Under the law re cently passed by congress the Indians are permitted to dispose of the land which reverts to them by inheritance.

and accordingly a large acreage on the reservation has been for the first time placed on the market. This includes at this time 107 seperate pieces comprising about 12000 acres. The price paid is between $10 and $20 per acre, but the final price will be determined by a government appraiser at the time the deeds are approved by the interior department. The buyers of the land include the Lasswell's the Linscott's, the Sarbach's, John Myers, H. Sinning, and other investors.

Other land will be placed on the market gradually. Progress of the New Church With a few finishing touches which will be made within the next week the foundation of the new church will be complete and ready for the floor joists, and then the brick work.
