The Itasca county grand jury that was discharged on Monday last by Judge McClenahan was evidently an industrious one, as mauy matters authorities will make any special effort to secure him, as the offense is not a very serious one, Two indictments were returned agatnst W A. Everton, recorder, for misappropriation of funds and in one case the bonds were fixed at $2.000. Bonds were furnished in all cases. James Bailey, former marshal of short distance out of town with a crowd of about nine cronies. It was a typical pot gang, all busily en- gaged making a delicious stew. The marshal captured Kelly and Welsh, the two suspects, while the others es- caped. They were given a hearing the village of Deer River was indicted | pefore Justice Barnard. It appeared for assault in the second degree. His| that Welsh did not have anything to bail was fixed at $500, which was furn-| 9 with the act of stealing, so the ished. A true bill was returned again court held him under $100 bonds to st Joe Hauck for burglary and attemp- ted robbery. He furnished bonds in the sum of $500. Justice of the Peace J. L. Barnard was also indicted for the alleged misappropriation of $60 re- ceived by him in fines, Before the indictment was returned Mr, Barnard paid the amount into the county treasury, for which he holds a receipt dated June 15. The indictment was found prior to that date although not returned until the 17th. Following is the report of the jury as to their in- vestigation of county buildings: To the Honorable District Court of the Fif- teenth Judicial District, Minnesota: We, the Grand Jury for the June, 1901, term of said court, in and for Itasca county, beg leave to report as follows: We have made a personal examination of the County Poor Farm and Buildings and find the institution in excellent condition and properly managed. We recommend, however, that the Poor House be repaintea and a cement floor be constructed in the basement. : x Ve have also examined the County Jail | and find the building in good condition, ex- | cept that it is unclean and unsanitary and recommend that it have a thorough cleaning. Dated June 17, 1901. Foreman. We fur ther recommend that the Honorable appear as a witness. Kelly was held in $500 bonds to await the action of the grand jury next December. In default of the stipulated bail he will remain in jail for six months at least. It may be in order to state that the two Kellys are not related. TO TOURNEY AND SHOOT. Some of Our Firemen and Crack Shots Are in Bemidji This Week. ‘Wednesday’s west bound train car- ried to Bemidji a party of our warm- ests ports. They goas delegates to the firemen’s tournament, ostensibly, but particularly to capture some of the trophies and emoluments that was offered at the big gun shoot that took lace there during the week. Tom ennessy, private, went up Monday as advance agent to prepare the town for the reception of pt. H. D. Powers, Maj.-Gen. E. A. Kremer, Lieutenant C. H. Marr, and Privates John Beckfelt, George Booth, A. B. Clair, A. A. Kremer, A. E. Kribs and Augus McDonald. Private Beckfelt was a little indisposed and did) not join the party. A HOT TIME EXPECTE Reform Wave Likely to Strike Grand Rapids in the Solar Plexus. ALL GAMBLING MUST GO Sheriff Tyndall Orders Rellis & Schu- macher to Remove All Gambling Paraphernalia from their Place. Others Must Do Likewise. Gambling in the saloons of Grand Rapids 1s likely to be seriously inter- fered with, if the threats being made are carried out. Last Monday Sheriff Tyndall orderd the removal of all gambling tables from the saloon of Schumacher & Rellis. The sheriff said if the order as not complied with by Tvesday he would seize and burn the paraphernalia. The removal was promptly made. ‘There are-five other public gambling houses in the viliage, runniog day and night, that have not yet been interfered with. Messrs. Schu- macher & Rellis are very much dis- pleased with the exception made in their case and Mr. Rellis says he will see thatall others are made to obey the laws in regard to gambling and closing of saloons at 11 o'clock p. m., Sundays and legal holidays. Mr. Rellis was a member of the late grand jury, and itis reported that an investigation was made by that body into the official acts of the sheriff, and this fact is given out as the reason for Mr. Tyndall’s action. One of two things will result: Either gambling will be abolished from the saloons ‘of the village or Relis & Schumacher will be allowed the same privileges exercised by others in that respect. In the meantime Schu- macher & Rellis are living strictly up to the law by closing their place of business at 11 o’clock at night and they propose to close up Sundays. EASTERN MINNESOTA EXTENSION. Report That Hill's Road Will Build From Hibbing Towards Grand Rapids. It is reported that the Eastern Minnesota is now planning an exten- sion ofits. road west from Hibbing towards “Grand Rapids, says the Hibbing News. The road will run through the Eastern’s lands in the western end of the Mesaba and make shipping possible from the Diamond iron mine and such new properties as may be opened up in that territory. The extension will be from 12 to 18 miles in length. The Diamond mine isowned by the steel combine, it having geen acquired the Oliver Iron Mining company. The Eastern will alsu tap the Arcturus mine and the Buckeye, tif the latter will be found to containa sufficient body of desirable ore. The main purpose of the Eustern’s extension, however, is to open up itsown lands. OUR COUNTY FAIR. It Is Time to Take This Important Matter Under Consideration. The officers of Itasca County Agri- cultural association should hold a meeting one of these days for the purpose of making preliminary plans for the 1901 fair. There is reason to louk, forward for an unusually good yield from the farms and for that reason a special effort should be made to raise the standard of the fair several points over former years. This cannot be done by neglecting all pre- parations until withia a week or two of the dates fixed for the exhibits and entertainment. The premium list should be revised and published at an early date. By so doing prospective exhibitions will have an opportunity to acquaint themselves with its con- tents and be the better prepared to make competitiveentries. The mak- ing of an Itasca county exhibit at the state fair should also be considered by the officers of the local association, The Firecracker Nuisance. The Fourth of July is aglorious day to every true eitizen of vur republic, and fireworks are all right as a feature of the day’s celebration. But the small boy and the big fool with a package of explosives are an abomi- nation on the face of the earth. Asa general rule the pestiferous boy is in evidence from about the first of June to the last of July with a supply of giant crackers to discharge in alley- ways, under sidewalks and in close proximity with anything that is com- bustible. Villages and cities are in constant danger of fires from this source from the first mention of July 4 until the supply of explosives is ex- hausted. This danger and nuisance should be abated by prohibiting en- tirely the discharge of fireworks with- in the corporate limits. The danger is too imminent to be» dealt with lightly.
