New Spring Goods AN INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR. { wine STOP FRADDULENT pyres) | American Boat Charged With Selling Liquor to Canadian Indians. The St. Francis News gives the fol- lowing interesting account. of an affair that took place on the border line last week; ‘*What proved an exciting time to those who partic- jpated in the aflair occurred this week in connection with the selling whisky to Indians: For a number of years the Canadian authorities have s:been greatly annoyed during the Indian treaty season on Rainy River by a number of American whisky peddiers who followed up the Indian agezts and from the American side of the river supply the Iudiaus with whisky, This year the business has been car- ried on ou a more pretentious scale; a gasoline boat cailed the Lone Star being‘used forjthat purpose. At Man- tion reserve last Saturday eveniag Indian Agent Wright receiyed’ word that the Lune Star was tied up to an island in Canadian waters a short dis- tance below the Manitou rapids. Next morning the Ludian agent with seven men drvpped down the river in canoes and succeeded in surprising the crew of the Lone Star, which cou- sisted of a party of five, only two of whom were known, viz.: Harry Curry master of the buat, and Who is also a deputy sheriff of the state of Miune- sota, and the other isa man named Jobu Forbes. A desperate abtempt Was made to escape and would no doubt have succeeded but for the prompt action of K. D. Cambell wao drew -his revolver and covered the man at the engine, at tbe same time ordering him lo stup the buat. The sight uf the revolver poiuted at his head a-ted like a charm and ina few seconds Mr. Wright and his men were in charge, The boat was brought w Kort’ Francis, arriving here on Monday morning about six o’clock. As an Indian Agent Wright had no immediate proof that the men sold liquor to the Indians on;the Canadi- an side uo steps were taken to place tuem under arrest, satisfying himself by tying the boat up and contiscat- ing the liquor aboard, Constable Cam- bell being ieft in charge. About 1 to the wharf and entered into conser- vation with Mr, Cambell. Me was fol- lowed shortly by another man, and one by one the remaining three strolled down, The whole party then moved over to-the boat and stvod talking when suddenly oneot them jumped abo This was a signal for the re- mainder. Before Cambell! could in- terfere two of the men hud cast off the lines while the other two witha pike pole tried to shove the boatclear of the whirf. Cambell urdered them to desist, at the same time firing off his revolver to draw attention 1n the town. He then sprang aboard and indeavored to reach the engine, thinking if he could get into the engine room he would be able to keep the party at bay until help arrived, but before he could get there be was grabbed and a fierce struggle ensued until finally hehad to yield to su- perior number. Cambell was.landed on the American shore about a. oile below the town pear Baker’s island from which point he made his way back. . On Tuesday morning Indian Agent Wright left with a party to follow up the boat which he will seize if itis at all possible and bring’ the offenders to justice.” SHOT BY SHERIFF, Dounle Tragedy at McGregor, Aitkin Gounty in Which Two are Killed. An Aitkin special tothe Pioneer Press says; Sheriff’ Newstrom was notified that today Tony Jordan. had shot and-probably fatally wounded a man named Clasen att McGregor, twenty miles east of here. ‘he sheriff proceeded immediately to the scene to arrest Jordan. The latter was at McGregor when the sheriff arrived, but when it was attempted to place him under arrest he fled eastward and the sheriif and a posse went after him. Jordan refused to balt when commanded and five shots were fired toscare him. - Deputy Hud- son then shot at the fleeing fugitive and killed him instantly. Jordan in town this afternoun with the wife of Clasen who was seeking a was the trouble. Jordan was the cause of the trouble, Jordan was en- gaged to marry a daughter of the Clasens, but the old yentiman object- ed to him. . : Order your ice cream, fruit, and candy at Trainors by telephone, No. o'clock one of the crew strolled down divorce from her husband and this" Locators Under the Stone and Timber Act Hereafter Will Be Rigidly. Examined. Friday a Washington dispatch published in the News ‘Tribune stated the commissioner of the gen- eral land office had decided to make an effort to stop timber land frauds under the timber and stone act, and that all proofs made during the present year under that law were suspended, pending an investiga- tion. Saturday the offcers of the local land office received instruction that confirmed that dispatch and in- dicated the department is going to make strenuous efforts to prevent a repetition of the timber and stone |frauds, and the orders.given out will be strongly felt in Duluth by the land men and timber companies ‘that acquire many of their proper ties under that act. As quite generally known the timber and stone act provides that aman may acquire 160 acres from the government by the payment of $2.50 an acre. The deal is practi- cally a cash transaction, no resi- dence being required and only a sixty day notice. The law pro- vides, however, that one person is entitled’ to only one entry uuder this act und he must make affidavit that he is not buying it for specu- lative purposes and also that he has made no agreement for the transfer of his title. But, notwithstanding the law it has been the practice of many land firms and lumber com- panies to pay a man $50 or $100 to file on 160 acres of good timber land under this act and as soon as he secures title to transfer it tothe company, It is this that the de- partment wishes to stop, and to do it has sent local officers a list of additional questions with which to cross examine claiments. Up to the present time it has been easy for men with elastic conscience to evade the law, as the examination is not very rmgid. Now, however, the new rules require the local offi- cers to critically cross examine every applicant and they are noti- fied that perfunctory final proofs will not be accepted by the. depart- | ment, The additional questions ré- quire information as to the appli- cant’s occupation and compensa- tion, where he first learned about the land he asks for and why he thought it would be agood invest- ment; if he paid anything for the information, the amountand identity of his informant; hé has to des- cribe the land, make an estimate of the lumber and stumpage on it. and what he expects to do with the property. lle 1s also asked if he knows of any company or corpora- tion offering to purchase land in the vicinity of the land he wants, if so, who are they and how did he learn of it; did he pay the cost of filing on the land; the price out of his own pocket, and if so he must tell where he got the money and how long he had it, as well as a number of other’ questions of sintilar pur- port. Taken altogether the new rules are as rigid as the department can make them and the probabilities are that they. will either result in less frauds or more perjurers—perhaps both. The Deer River Embrog.io There seems tv be no cessation of hostilities at Deer River. Nearly everybody in the village bas been arrested of late or indicted by the grand jury. All the saloon keepers are under arrest for violations of the liquor law. and naw the bartenders are being dealt with on similar charges. What the final outcome will be is hard to predict. Some of the retail dispensers of the ardent have paid their license and others have not, but they have. all been ar- rested, irrespective of what they did do or left undone. On Wednesday Mathew Jones, bartender for W. J. Kelly was committed tc jail for. sel- ling liquor without a license, by a Deer River justice of the peace, in default of bonds, Attorney F. F. Price habeus corpused him tw free- dom before Court Commissioner Huson, and thus the merry war goes on. The general opinion seems to be that that the people of Deer River are factional, fanatical, and foolish, You assume no risk when you buy Chamberlain’s Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
