BOTH ARF. SUSPENDED Commissioners Wright and Sibley Temporarily Re- moved by Gov. Johnson. COUNTY BOARD MEETING CALL- ED FOR TODAY NOT HELD. Session Will Be Postponed Until Result of Investigation Is Known. Commissioners Wright and Sibles received telegrams late Saturday from Gov. Johnson nc- tifying them that they had been suspended from office pending the result of the investigation that was concluded last week. The suspensionis practically a temporary removal,as it deprives the commissioners of power to sit on the board. As a result, the meeting of the board which was to have been held today did not materialize, as only two members of the board appeared at the court house this morning. These members were Danaher and Gunderson. Two members not being a quorum. it was necessary to postpone the meeting. Dispatches published in a num- ber of newspapers state that the act of Gov. Johnson in suspend ing Wright and Sibley was taken on receipt of telegrams from Be- midji to the effect that they (Wright and Sibley) intended to appoint a county attorney to suc ceed Former County Attorney Loud at the meeting today. 1t is very probable that there will be no session of the board until after Gov. Johnson decides whether or not there is sufficient evidence to warrant the perma- nent removal of Messrs. Wright and Sibley. The hearing before IMRS. C.

EIGHT TIMBER TRESPASSERS Sued for $167,786.12 By the State of Minne- sota. Eight timber trespass suits, coveringalleged damages amount- ing to $167,786.12 have been filed in the Ramsey county district court by Attorney General Young. The firms defendant are. Shevlia-Carpenter company, to the amount of $51,324.42; Bonnes & Howe, $10,951.61; Pine Tree Lumbercompany,$4,304.61; Foley & Bean Lumber com pany,$6,554. - 03; C. A.'Smith TimYer company, $4,791.70; Backus-Brooks Lum- ber company, $89,895.76. The suits are an echo of the timber and mineral lease investi- gations made by Former Public Examiner Johnson just before he retired from office. They cover timber cut on state lands during the winters of 1903 and 1904. A feature of the suits is that, with the probable exception of one company, the timber has been paid for, but, because of a violation of lawin cutting the timber after the permit had ex pired treble damages must be ex acted. Itis then called trespass, but the companies involved refus ed tosubmit to that view of the case, Shipping Cedar. Kelliher Journal: The Bel- tramiCedar company this week commenced shipping theirsupply of cedar which was cut here dur. ing the winter.

Bemidji, Minn., May 15, 1905. Hditor Daily Pioneer: I hear a great deal of talk about pulp mills, handle factor- ies, etc.. for Bemidji. In my opinion, you do notlet it be known far enough back east that there would be money in it for parties to establish such institu- tions here. In Wisconsin and Minnesota and neighboring states there are too many opportunities osen to land everything the town should have, but back east it is different. There are lots of peo- ple in Boston, New York and the Atlantic states who would be glad of the opportanity to estab lish different kinds of factories here. I don’t seec gnything to hinder Bemidji from havicg the lion’s share in the way of factor ies. Weall know that the prai- rie states are not suited for man ufacturing. Bemidji is very weil suited in many respects—good railroad facilities—good drain age, not muddy after rains and a cool climate. If you cotld get some kind of a factory that would give employment to men summer and winter it would benefit the business people and the puyblic in generatimmensely. It is like everything else—if we don’t reach out for things we will never accomplish anything. the con- |- - ARRESTED quidiiASaioonkeeper Accus- ed of Having Sold Liquor toa Minor.
