Otto, postoffice inspec- tor, formerly of this city but who now makes his headquarters in: Chis , cago, is visiting his family here for a couple of days. Mr. Otto was formerly assistant postmaster of the Bemidji office and because of his record was several years ago promoted to the position ci postoffice inspector. Since his appoint ment-he has been connected with some of the most important arrests made by the government for misuse of the mails. He is regarded as one of the post office departments most able inspectors, and his investiga- tions have led to- the uncovering of several. blackmailing and blackhand schemes. Asked what he thonght of the Ed- mund Gould affair, Mr. Otto said: “I never believed from the day one of the inspectors told me of Ed's arrest that he was guilty. I know the boy almost as’ well as any boy was ever known and have always regari- ed him as one of the most honest. The whole matter was unfortunate, but I am sure that he has been clear- ed in the eyes of the world. He will be reinstated 1 am informed.” Mr. Otto will return to Chicago to- day.

PLAYED RIVER PIGS In referring to the drubbing given the Thief River Falls high school football eleven by the Bemidji team' a week ago the Thief River Press says: “The high school football team OE this city went down to Bemidji last Saturday to try conclusions with 2 team representing the B.

The meagre reports of the contest, however, indicate that it must how- | ever, indicate that it must have re- | sulted about six dozen to 0. *“ The local warriors were very re- ticent in referring to the game, but mildly hinted that about eleven good, husky river drivers must have lald aside their, “peeveys” and matriculat- ed at the Bemidji high school Sai- urday morning.' _— i [Returns With Big Bag one day divided between Martin Longballa, Barney Erickson and Jack Young appears to be the record shoot of the season.

He was judge, jury, prosecutor and bailiff.” Sulzer declared the trall was a “political ,lynching as far as the Tam- mnyized ‘part of the court was con- cerned and was a deep laid political conspiracy to oust me from office.” “A horse thief in the frontier days,” said the ex-governor, “would have received a squarer deal.” He | characterized the secret sessions of {the court as “star chamber proceed- ings, where enemies of the state could work for my conviction undis- covered.” EXTRA ORDERED DEPORTED Mrs, Pankhurst has been ordered dported.

Should Bemidji win Manager ,Jacobson will immediztely write to.fhe manager: ot the Adams team and endeavor . to schedule a game to be played in this city. The winning of these games will mean the championship. - At the regular practice of the team last evening Coach Carl Jacob- son submitted several new plays which he believes will be a great aid in winning future games. Only two games are scheduled at present and as the majority of cities throughout the north section of. the state have no team this year it is probable that these will be the only games to be played. One week from Sunday a trip will be made to Brain- erd where a return game will be played with the Brainerd eleven. As Bemidji defeated the Brainerd squad last Sunday little fear is belng ex- pressed in regard to the outcome. . Wayne Leply the 260 pound cen- ter ‘has reported for practice as a candidate for center. Leply was for- merely a high school star and. his = |strength is considered a big addition to the team. Gilette, a former col- lege star will also be given a tryout in the game Sunday. ‘The Bemidji lineup wlll be as fol- lows: Rem Bell, Left End. Glen Peck, Left Tackle. John Holseth, Left Guard.

According to Willilam Lick- off, bartender for McNabb, Jorgen- son who was intoxicated entered the saloon with Falberg who apparently | was caring for tne intoxicated man. While drinking at the bar Falberg attempted to relieve Jorgeson of his watch but was apprehended by a stranger who inquired if he was stealing the time piece.

Lickoff, who was tending bar became suspicious and looked around the partition in time to see Falberg draw a large roll of bills from Jorgenson's pocket and place them in his own. Without any further delay Falberg headed for the door. As Lickoff was behind the bar he was unable to apprehend the thief but quickly followed im pur- suit and ordered him to stop.
