The board of county commission- ers of Beltrami county completed their work this afternoon and have adjourned to meet in special session on'March 3rd. The matter of the contract with Dr. Blakeslee was taken up last evening, the board fixing his salary as county physician atthe sum of $1,5000 and the salary as health officer at $1,000, payable in monthly installments. In the contract, the doctor agrees to furnish all livery and transportation, medicine, medi- cal appliances, and in fact, stand all necessary expenses. In the con- tract is incorporated a clause which states that the same applies only to paupers, as county physician, and as health officer only to contagious diseases. Parties employing him as their physician and able to pay, will be required to pay, the same asany other-individual. In case it should cause transporiation or other ex- penses, the county is to be remun- erated that much. He is also to receive pay from logging camps and other places (except in case of paupers) where called upon as health officer to fumigate, after a _tun of contagious disease. Another matter which will be the means of saving the county con- siderable money was a contract entered into by the board with John Phillippi, overseer of the poor. By this contract he is to receive 60 cents per day for boarding paupers, 75 cents a day for board for smallpox patients or consumptives. Paupers who are able to do so will be required to work on the poor farm, under the supervision of ng with friends and relatives in | Superintendent Phillippi, as many days after their dischargeas they were inmates of said farm and county charges. Several applications for abatement of taxes were acted upon. § The matter of appropriation for state roads was taken up and a number of appropriations made, and the county auditor was instructed to notify the state auditor of such amounts and designation of roads. ‘The county attorney was instruc- {ted to bring suit for the recovery of | the sawmill property, known as the Blakeslee sawmill, and now used by Harry Bowers, or its value. After the usual allowance of bills the board adjourned. Common School Certificates. { The teachers’ examinations for Beltrami county were commenced Ithis morning in this city at 10 o’clock. The day was devoted to first grade studies and consisted of the following program. {A. M.—8:00 Enrollment. 8:15 Geometry. 10:00 Physics. P. M.—1:30 Algebra. 3:15 Physical Geography or General History. The examinations are being con- ducted under the peronal supervi- sion of W. B. Stewart, county super- {intendent of schools. Prof. Stewart | states that he hardly expected any applicants for examinations in the first grade studies, and that prob- ably no large number of teachers would take the examinations in the second grade studies tomorrow or Saturday, his reason for this conclu sion is that most of the teachers take examinations each year at the con- clusion of the summer school, hence the small attendence at the win- ter examinations. There were three teachers who applied today for the first grade subjects, principally for the pur- pose of renewing their first grade certificates. They were Miss Coville of Gemmell, Miss Dunning- ton of Nary and Mr. Griswold, who teaches in the school on Lake Irving. It is expected that a num- ber of teachers will arrive in the city tonight and tomorrow morn- ing. { The following is the program for | Friday and Saturday. Friday, January 31st.

Albert Lea, Minn., Jan. 30.—After a year of more or less suffering, during which time his mental faculties have not been of the best, Judge John A. Lovely, for years one of the most prominent members of the Minnesota state supreme court, is dead. Judge Lovely was sixty-four years of age and had resided in this city for more than forty years. A Philosopher. Frances. Willard once wrote to a friend who had just lost a daughter: “Dear Sister- Anna, how much richer are you than I! Here I sit alone with- out a child to die, while you are mother toan angel.” Bible Conference July 21-26. The committee in charge of the Bemidji Bible Conference to be held in this city next July, have been busy at work. Rev. E. J.

It is the purpose of the committee in charge to introduce some Chau- tauqua features this year, immedi- ately preceeding the Bible Confer- ence program. Prof. C. M. Martin of Minneapolis, who was so successful in the direc- ition of the Chorus last year, has been secured for the present year. Mrs. A. A. Warfield, who so ac- ceptably preside§ at the organ dur- ing former conferences, has been selected again for the same position. OBJECTS TO RECEIVER. Charles G. Dawes Files Statement in Federal Court. Chicago, Jan. 30.—Charles G. Dawes has filed with Judge Grosscup of the United States circuit court his objec- tion to the appointment of A. C. Frost as one of the receivers of the Chicago and Milwaukee Electric Railroad com- pany. The statement is as follows “I object to A. C. Frost as receiver of the Chicago and Milwaukec Elec- tric Railroad company for the reason that, from my investigation of the affairs of the road, I have discovered that he has induced the security hold- ers to purchase the bends of the road upon statements of net earnings which are absolutely mislesding.” ROB EXPRESS GFFICE. Masked Men Secure $3,000, but Over- laok $40,000 More. Mansfield. O., Jan. 30.—Shortly after midnight two masked men en- tered the office of the Adams Ixpress cowpany at the Union station here, knocked William Depew, the agent, unconscious and got away with §$3,000 while nearly fifty passengers stood ahout the station waiting for trains. A bag containing $40,000 in gold lying near the $3,000 was overlooked by the robbers. The men on entering the office asked Depew for a package they said must have arrived on a train too Jate for delivery. While Depew was looking for thre supposed package one of the robbers struck him on the head and knocked him unconscious, with a three- inch gash in his head. The other rob- ber covered George McGinty, a friend of Depew, with a revolver and the first robber then went tirough the safe. Then, keeping McGiaty covered, the men ran from the evpress office and disappeared. Depew lay unconscious for more than an hour after aid had been summoned by McGinty. Telegrams were promptly sent to the police of all nearby towns and as a result John McCue and Joseph Ste- vens were taken into custody at New London. They had the sack taken from the express office containing $3,000. Stevens, the police say, confessed and implicated McGinty. According to Stevens’ story the money arrived from Delphos, O., and was consigned to a bank at Hamilton. Stevens said McGin- ty tipped off the arrival of the money and cooked up the scheme with him and McCue to rob the office. As scon as this information was wired here McGinty was locked up. He denies the charge. BOYERTOWN HORROR. Inquest Develops Suggestions of Graft and Neglect. Boyertown, Pa., Jan. 30.—The open- ing session of the inquest in the Boyertown theater horror, in which 169 people were killed, was marked by suggestions of graft and admissions of neglect which, it is intimated, may result in prosscution. It was brought out that the main exit to the hall was blocked by the box office; that the stairway and the point of exit and entrance were but three feef one inch in width and that Harry Fischer, the operator of the stereopticon apparatus, had received bhut two days’ instruction in the meth- ods of handiing the calcium light and that he operated the machine in pub- lic for the first time on that fatal night. In addition to this Dr. Thomas A. Rhoades, the owner of the building, declared that the building had been inspected and passed by a state fac- tory inspector after he “had given a contract for fire escapes to a Reading man” at the suggestion of the inspec- tor. FIRE LOSS OF $1,200,000 Chicago Experiences Third Disastrous Blaze in as Many Days. Chicago, Jan. 30.—Chicago has been visited by the third disastrous fire in as many days, which did damage amounting to $1,209,000. The build- ing at 144 Wabash avenue, occupied by Alfred Peats & Co., dealers in wall- paper; the building adjoining it on the south, occupied by John A. Colby & Sons, furniture dealers, and that in the rear, occupied by the millinery firm of Edson, Keith & Co., were al- most totally destroyed. Those to the north and south of the Keith building, oceupied by Gage Bros. & Co. and Theodore Ascher & Co., millinery firms, were damaged by fire and¢ wa- tor. The fire starled in the engine room of the Peats building and raged for three hours. Street car lines through- out the down town district and the elevated lines were tied up and the- ater goers were delayef, many of them more than an hour, in reaching the playhouses. SUGGESTED BY BRYAN Democratic Platform Should De- clare for Roosevelt Policies, PARTY NOT WITH PRESIDENT Nebraskan Asserts That ‘“the Inter ests” Control the Republican Lead: ers and Will Dictate Their Course In the Coming Campaign. ‘Washington, Jan. 30.—The platform of the next Democratic national con- vention will declare for the Roosevelt policies, if Mr. Bryan has anything to say about it. At Senator Newlands’ dinner Monday night and usain at Mr. Newlands' dinner Tuesday night Mr. Dryan explained to the Democratic senators his desire that the national campaign should he fought out en- tirely on that line. Mr. Bryan’s idea is that the party should make ‘no pretense that Mr. Roosevelt stole its policies. That has long been maintained by the Bryan- ites and Mr. Bryan still believes it, but he does not propose to insist on it in the platform or in the campaign, regarding such an attitude as peanut politics. i ‘His plan is simply to take the Roose- velt policies and make them the Dem- ocratic platform without any quarrel at all as to the authorship. He explained to the Democratic sen- ators that, whether or not Taft is nominaled, “the interests” will control the Republican party and dictate its method of campaign. He showed them that it is becoming every day clearer, and especially in the attitude of the senate toward Mr. Roosevelt, that the president dces not represent the controlling interests in the Repub- lican party. Therefore, Mr. Bryan.ar- gued, whatever is in the interests of the people in the Roosevelt programme must be gained through the Demo- cratic party or not at all. Since Mr. Bryan has been here his admiration for the president has been unconcealed. He has delivered in pri- vate some of the strongest eulogies of the president that have ever been | heard from any one. Whatever slight jealousy might have been apparent when he was here three years ago and eulogized the president has now disappeared and his enthusiasm for Roosevelt is unstinted and openly pro- claimed. FAVOR BEVERIDGE BILL. Chicago Business Men Approve Tariff Commission. Chicago, Jan. 30.—Chicago business men will be represented at a meet- ing of commercial interests in Wash- ington next Monday, the purpose of which is to bring pressure on con- gress to pass the Beveridge bill creat- ing a special commission to consider taeans of revising the tariff. It is pointed out that tariff revision means much to Chicago and the Mid- dle West and the various commercial bodies will do what they can to bring it about. The delegates will compose the most influential and representative in- dustrial committee ever organized in the country. The committee will call on President Roosevelt, Speaker Can- non, the ways and means committee of the house and the finance commit- tee of the senate and urge that the Beveridge bill be made a law as quick- 1y as possible. Chicago men confidently expect that the Beveridge bill will be passed. If this is the case the commission will get to work at once and continue every day until the assembling of the new congress, which will be after the next presidential election. Then the result of the commission’s study will be put before congress. It:will be the aim to revise the tariff strictly from a business standpoint. PACKING PLANT DAMAGED iLoss by Fire at Kansas City, Kan,, Estimated at $560,000. Kansas City, Jan. 30.—Fire in the canning department on the second floor of one of the twin main build- ings of the packing plant of Nelson Morris & Co. on the Kaw river in Kansas City, Kan., threatened destruc- tion of the entire plant and caused a loss estimated at $500,000 before it was controlled. All efforts to save the east main building, in which the fire started, and the box factory were abandoned within half an hour after the flames were discovered and the firemen devoted themselves to the work of saving the other building. The building in which the fire start- ed contained the canning department, the coolers, the dressing rooms, the wholesale department and the killing beds and the contents supplied the fire with fuel which made the flames difficult to combat.

Tondon, Jan. 30.—That most rare event of a London winter, a clear and sunny day, favored the royal proces- sion to Westminster, where King Ed- ward opened parliament with the same ceremonies that have been observed for centuries. The menace of an outbreak on the part of the women suffragists of Eng- land gave an unusual interest to the formal proceadings. While it was not antfeipatod that the agitators would disturb the king they threatened to make things interesting for the mem- bers. of the house of parliament, par- KING EDWARD. tieularly if there was no mention of suffrage in the speech from the throne. Greater precautions could not have been taken if an anarchist uprising had been feaved. The only ladies admitted to the gal- leries of parliament ‘were those for whom members vouched in writing as their wives or relatives and the police, who were on duty around Westmin- ster and throughout the houses of par- liament, were instructed to keep espe- cial watch over all women. ‘When the royal procession was re- turning to Buckingham palace three well dressed women suffragists broke through the military cordon and made their way to within a few yards of the king's coach. They were waving strips of paper bearing the words “Votes for Women.” These papers were immediately taken from their hands by the police. One of the wo- men fainted and the other two were removed by force. 3 HAD SUED, FOR $900,000. New Yorker Given $381,666 Against Rich Syndicate.

Morris, a young dentist whose auto- mobile ran over and killed Marcus- J. Jacobs, a theatrical manager here, last September, was sentenced tc serve nineteen months in the peni- tentiary.

A DECLARES INSANITY PROVEN Asaerts That Serious Evidence of the | Defense Has Been Met Only by Sneers and Insinuations From Dis: | trict Attorney Jerome. New York, Jan. 30.—Martin W. Lit- tleton, .chief counsel for Harry K. Thaw, made his appeal to the jury which is to pass judgment upon his client. Before a crowded courtroom the attorney devoted himself to dem- | onstrating that Thaw clearly was in-i sane when he killed Stanford White. | Mr. Littleton declared that the serious evidence of the defense had been met only by sneers and insinuations from | District Attorney Jerome. Thaw’s in- sanity, he said, was not a thing born of an exigency, but was ground by hereditary into the very history of the man. Mr. Littleton said he was convinced the defense had produced facts tend | ing to show Thaw insane beyond all reasonable doubt, though the law had | not imposed -that duty upon it. It was for the presecution to prove Thaw sane and Mr. Littleton asserted that he could not understand how Mr. Je- | rome could come before the jury and | claim he had fulfilled the burden ! placed upon him and ask for Harry Thaw's covviction of murder. The | speech was listened to with closest | attention by the jurors. ‘When Mr. Littleton came to the point of “Thaw's life when he met | -Evelyn Nesbit he condemned District | Attorney Jerome for his treatment of i the young woman on the ‘witness | stand. . ! “I don’t know what the judgment of you gentlemen may be as to her morals or as to any reprehensibility or con- duct either with Stenford White or | Mr. Thaw,” he proceeded, “but the| distriet attorney’s rfanner toward her | in my judgment exceeded anything she deserved.” SOME PERSONS WOUNDED | | Outbreak of Political Rioting at Cap- ital of Portugal. Lishon, Jan. 30.—There has been an outbreak of pclitical rioting on the streets of this city in which shots were fired and some people wounded. The disorders, however, were of short dura- tion. The police had received warning in advance and they acted-promptly. | The crowd made use of revolvers and for a few moments the firing was heavy, but it rapidly gave way and ! was dispersed before a show of force. | An cficial statement issned after | the encounter savs a number of per | sons received mortal wounds. The police continue to search active- ly for new plots and conspiracics. Numerous arrests are being made. The king has signed a decree which prac- tically empowers the police tribunal to expel suspects from the country. | ‘This is done because the limited prison | accommoadations already are crowded | Some of the leaders of the agitation will be transported to the island of Timor, in the Malay archipelago.
