Scott on Warpath 1 to the Duluth Herald from Cass Lake says: President Roose- velt is likely to be appealed to cn he- half of selling of liquor to Indians ou the Chippewa reservation and to In- dians in towns on the edge or in the reservation, but. chiefly at Walker, near the Indian ag . Maj. Scott” has written to Indian Commissioner Jones. him, if nec y, torefer the matter to Secretary of the Interior Hitch- cock, and if be thinks necessary, to bring the matter before the presi- dent. M Scott bas long deplored the increase of drunkenness amoug Indians, and recently began an ac- tive war against those selling to In- dians at Walker, His opposition be- came so strong and pronounced that the city officials at Walker caileda public meeting on Dee. 31, to make plans for the new year and invited Maj, Scott to be present. The meeting was largely attended by county and city offieials and by bartenders and saloonkeepe Ma}. Scott{told themof the seriousness of the crime, and that drink was increasing among the Indians in an alarming de- gree, and asked their co operation. This they promised, bat the first day of 1903 saw more drunken Indians on the streets of Walker than in the his- tory of the county seat. The town was made hideous with their yells, and they were even lying drunk on the streets. The saloon men and the officials broke faith with the major and their promises. ‘he one saloon which did not sell liquor to Indians was visited by an officer and his slot machines closed. Maj. Scott made several serious complaints, and warrants were issued | for the arrest of bartenders and some | were arrested. Three bartenders | suddenly left town and three more areunder borfds.

Fora crime committed a al pretence. committed a felony, although not in his presence.” The statutory definition of the powers of an officer in making an arrest without a warrant is shown by Judge Gaynor to be identical with the above, except that the following clause is added: “3. When a felony has in fact been committed, and he has reasonable cause for believing the person to be arrested to have committed it.” The statutes of Minnesota in re- gard to the right of arrest without a warrant by either a private person or an officer are identical with those of New York, except that the addition is made that an officer may arrest— “4. On a charge made, upon rea- sonable cause, of the commission of a felony by the party’ arrested.” An arrest without a warrant, un- der any other circumstances than thus prescribed, is absolutely illegal, and may be rightfully resisted by the party whose arrest is sought and by his friend But, with a warrant the officer i imply the agent of the court, having no discretion of bis own; and in its execution he is en- titled to the assistance, if need be, of any citizen upon whom he raay call. The extent to which the legal limi- tations of official power under a free government are of late, habitually disregarded'in the making of arrests, entering private premises, etc., make }it highly proper that, in the inteest of the maintainance of popular rights, these elementary facts shouid ficers prone toexagerated conceptions }of their authority, and of citizens | forgetful of their immunities as freemen.—St. Paul Pioneer Press.
