GRIFFIN INDICTED TWICE
For Selling Without License and
Violating the Sunday Liquor
Law.

w. H. Griffin was indicted by the
grand jury yesterday-and indicted
twice at that.
One Indictment charges the "mayor''
with selling intoxicating liquors with
out license. The other accuses him
of selling these liquors on the Sabbath
day, contrary to law.
Griffin was not arrested yesterday,
inasmuch as court had adjourned until
10 a. m. today. At that time "the
mayor" will be taken to court and ar
raigned before Judge Willis, who will
fix bail in each case
There is another case pending against
Griffin. 1t was presented to the grand
jury yesterday by Mrs. S. v. Root, who
charges Griffin with keeping disorder
ly place at 33 East Seventh street
1t is possible that another indictment
will result from the testimony that Mrs.
Root and her coadjutors will present.
The grand jury returned four other
indictments yesterday. Two Of them
are against John Leader, who Is charg-
ed with stealing diamonds from the
residence of E. H. Judson, and with
stealing other goods from the house Of
A. w. Lownsbury.
John Moberg is indicted on the
charge Of robbing the jewelry store Of
A. H. Simon of a jeweled locket, and
Charles Smith is indicted on the charge
Of stealing jewelry from the establish
ment of G.. Somers & Co.
No bill was returned against A. w.
Kingsbury, who was accused of being
implicated in the theft from Sommers
G. Co.

George r. Finch replied that the
chairman might better come from the
country.

mitttee of seven, consisting of Messrs

Of Duluth; Gibbs, of Geneva; Stebbins

C. P. Noyes seemed to be choice OF
the committee, and Of the convention
as well, but he said he had not the
time to devote to it.
The general opinion among the mem
berS seemed to favor an organization
similar to that of the worlds fail
board, with secretary who can CORE
spond and visit the people of the va
rious counties and raise the funds, as
well as look after the details of secur-
ing the exhibits.
The afternoon was spent in the dis
cussion of details. 1t was decided that
1000 should be the amount expended
in making the exhibit.
Whether or not the building is erect
ed will depend largely upon the lum-
bermen, miners and quarrymen II
they will donate the materials as theil
share of the expense, 1t will probably
be erected. If the cash has to be taken
from the exhibit fund it probably will

Appeal to theYSecretary of the
Interior for Justice.
state Auditor Dunn has filed an even
dozen appeals with the secretary OF
the interior taking exception to the
decision Of the general land office
against the state of Minnesota in the
| matter OF the possession of double min
| 1mum swamp lands.
both the registrars and receivers OF
tine land office at Marshall and ST.
Cloud refused to concede that the state
was entitled to the double minimum
swamp lands located within the place
limits of the right of ways Of railroads
enjoying state land grant.
The question has frequently been re-
ferred to the general land office, and
In every case. with one exception, was
the decision against the state.
state Auditor Dunn thinks the state
has clear title to all such double min
lmum lands, and to this end he has
carried the matter to the interior de-
partment. From recent advices a de-
cls1on may be expected soon.
The twelve cases appealed by Audi
Tor Dunn involve over LOCO acres Of
choice swamp land located in the
southern part Of the state on even
numbered sections along the right of
way of railroads. This property is sit
uated in the midst of the finest farm
Ing region in the state, and is easily
worth SIS per acre.
Aside from the $4,000 involved, the
precedent which will be established by
the interior department will determine
FOR all time the ownership of double
minimum swamp lands In this state.
If the case is decided-in favor of the
state, 1T will mean the reverting back
to the state of lands in all parts of
Minnesota during the next year, the
value Of which will easily exceed
| $4,000.
Mr.. Dunn contends that the state Is
entitled to all such swamp lands under
the provisions of the general swamp
| land grant in 1860. The grant of 1866
cedes all the swamp land in the state
| of Minnesota to the state.
The officials of the general land office
claim that the government IN the1r
grant of 1857 intended to reserve for all
| time the double minimum lands, and
that the swamp land grant Of 1860 does
not effect such swamp lands as lay
within the even numbered sections
along the right Of way Of railroads
which acquired their lands by grant.
In July, 1857, the government made
a grant to the state known as the
railroad grant This grant was made
for the purpose Of encouraging the
construction Of railroads within the
state. Under it's provisions the state
could cede to the railroad companies
odd-numbered sections along the sur
veyed right of way, for a distance Of
six miles on either side.
The even numbered sections the gov.
ernment retained for it's own use anc
purposes. This land was offered fol
sale by the government, at what is
known as double minimum price

FINE ICE, PLENTY OF 1T.

in St. Paul. An abundant supply of ice
has been harvested by all of the COM
panies this winter, and all the ice
houses are full. And it is said to be a
finer quality of ice than has been had in
many years. This is due, so it is said,
to the uniformly cold weather that pre-
vailed from December to the latter part
OF February. During that period there
were no thaws, the thermometer regis
tering twenty-five degrees at the high
est. The fall of snow was also light,
so that impurities that usually get into
the ice were avoided.
There is plenty of ice this winter"
said Secretary Zimmerman, of the Peo-
pies Ice company, to Glob re-
porter yesterday. "Our five storage
houses are full, and we shall have no
difficulty in supplying the demand next
summer. Our ice is obtained from Nc
Carron's lake, White Bear lake and LAX 2
Phalen. We began to harvest on Dec
2e and stopped Feb. %. We never had
better Ice. 1t ranges in thickness from
eighteen to twenty-three inches, and is
as clear as glass. 1t is remarkably
free from carbon and SCOT. This Is be-
cause there were no thaws. The price
of ice will be the same as usual''
A similar report on the ice crop was
given by Secretary Hardy, of the St.
Paul Lake Ice company.
"The ice never was so clear" he said.
There are no black spots in it. We
harvested $4,000 tons."

Mr.. Thurston remains in the public ser

to life of petty drudgery on an income
of five thousand dollars year. Being
ambitious and not being superannu

this prospect. Speaker Reed, who II
poor, takes the risk of losing his law
