SAYS STORY IS UNTRUE Sheriff Bailey Denies That| “‘Shorty” Wesley Has Been Found. CROOKTON JOURNAL REPORTER HAS “PIPE DREAM.” Paper Says That Wesley Has Been in Hiding in Dakota for Some Time. The Crookston Journal yester- day printed a story stating that “well founded rumors” from Be- midji were to the effect that “Shorty” Wesley, the man wanted for complicity in the Dahl murders, had been located at Arvilla, N. D., and the Sheriff Bailey was on his way to arrest him, When seen this morning Mr. Bailey denied the story as pub lished in the Journal, and said that there was no foundation for the report. Ae stated that the Crookston newspapers had been instrumental in a large measure in informing Wesley of every movement made by the authori- ties and that had it not been for the reports published the man wanted for complicity in the mur- der would huve been apprehended a long time ago. Mr. Bailey is much wrought up over the many stories pub- lished in the newspaper about his chase for Wesley, and s of them were untrue, but were useful to Wesley in keeping him informed of the movements of the authorities. He is of the opinion that newspapers, as well as indi- viduals, should aid in the appre- hension of those who committed the most horrible crime in the history of northern Minnesota by witholding rumors and uncon- firmed reports from their col- umns. He stated that as soon as developments were adduced which would warrant the publi- cation of a true story he would give the facts to the newspapers at once, but until that time he believed that it was the duty of every newspaper man to sup press all news which would aid in the escape of the criminals.

Committed Man Taken to Bemidiji But Authorities Stopped Proceedings.. A case in which S. Sorenson, the worthy justice of the peace at Buena Vista, acted as com- plaining witness, judge, jury and executioner, occurred at Buena Vista the tirst of the week, and David Simons was deprived of his liberty, tried upon a warrant issued by the judge and in which the latter appeared as complain- g witness, and sentenced toa term of imprisonment in the county jail. The trouble arose over some dispute thatoccurred at the post- oftice in Buena Vista, Both men were there and became involved ina wrangle. Sorenson at last lost control of himself and in the heat of the argument grabbed Simons by the shoulder. The latter very promptly delivered a hard drive to the face of his op- ponent which settled the dispute for the time being. A warant was served upon him, however, and he was arrested by Consta- ble GeorgeCyr. Hewas brought before the justice for a hearing and was sentenced to ten days in the county jail. The consta- ble broughthim to this city Tues- day, but County Attorney Loud advised the sheriff not to act up- on the committment issued and Simons was allowed his liberty. Habeas corpus proceedings were instiuted yesterday and heard by Judge Spooner, who rendered a decision for Simons. GET DIVORCES Mrs. Perrault and Mrs. C. C.

Browne is being tried by a jury this afternoon before Judge Spooner. Mrs. Bain lives at Blackduck and sues to recoyer a certain amount of furniture which was sold to her by Mr. Browne and later seized by the latter because of non payment of anumber of notes which he held and which were given by Mrs. Bain and promised payment for the farniture. The grounds upon which the nction is based is 4 claim thyi the amount of the farniture delivered to her hotel in Blackduck was less than what was called for in the contract.

CERTIFICATES MUST BE FILED BY ABOVE DATE. Losing Candidates Must Also File Statements of Expense Dur- ing Campaign. Tuesday, Oct. 18, is the last day for the filing with the county auditor of the certificates of nom- ination of the candidates before the recent primaries, also for the filing of petition of independent candidates for the coming gen- eral election, who have not been before the primaries. Oct. 18 will also be the last date for the defeated candidates at the primary election to file with the county auditor their state- ments of election expenses. The law provides that all candidates before the primaries must file such sworn statement of ex- penditures within thirty days after the election is held. Very few have yet filed their accounts and the county auditor has called attention to the corrupt prac- tices act, section 7, chapter 277, laws of 1895, which provides that all candidates who appeared before the primary election, shall within thirty days of the date of such election file, with the county auditor a statement, in writing subscribed and sworn to before a proper officer, setting forth 1n detail all sums of money con- tributed, disbursed, expended or promised by them, to the best of their knowledge and belief, either by themselves or by any person or persons in their belief Any person who shall not com ply with tne provisions shall be liable to a fine not exceeding $1,000, to be recovercd in an action brought in the name of the state by county attorney, the amount of the fine to be fixed by the court and to be paid into the county school fund. In event of a default of payment of tiie fine he_may be committed to the county jail until such time as the fine shull be paid not to exceed six months. As to the expenses of the gen- eral election the county auditor has authority to refuse to issue certificates of election until such stateme re filed. There is still another filing that must be made under the law which seems to have been forgot- ten in several quarters. This refers to the political committees which the law must have a treas- urer whose duty it shall be to file a statement within thirty days of the election, of all the moneys received and disbursed in the campaign. The statement must set the sums of money forth in detail and must be sub- scribed and sworn to before pro- per officer. SURVEYING M- D. Stoner and Crew Are Run- ning New Line for Red Lake Railway.
