Criminal Careiessness.

DR.. S. H. Boyer. the new coroner of
this county, has taken d decided stand
against the killing of hunters during
the hunting season. and will take
steps to discourage the sport. The
doctor has little sympathy for the
class of hunters who are 50 frequently
nistaking other hunters for deer or
other game, and in his letters to his
deputy cOrOners has called their at
tention to, the altogether too common
accidents of this kind. He says it
will be his policy in cases where a
hunter kills another person by shoot
ing him under the mistaken impress
sion that he is shooting at game, and
with fatal results, to hold an inquest
and that he hopes the juries in those
cases will find that the hunter is
guilty of crimiaal carelessness. The
new coroner is very anxious to I'M
press on all hunters that in future
they exercise caution. He intends,
when the hunting season approaches,
to call further attention to the fact
that it is never safe to shoot at an
object in the woo DIS where SO many
men are, unless the identity of the
object is known beyond question.

School Boards and Contracts.

Attorney General Douglas has just
rendered an opinion which will Great G
IA great deal of interest amongst
school teachers throughout the state.
Some time ago the school directors of
town in Cass county decided to re-
move teacher and give her another
place. This was to make room for a
new teacher. Objections were raised
Gin the ground that the teacher who
had been displaced had verbal or
parole contract with the school dir
ectOrs. Friends of both teachers took
sides and the controversy grew until
it came to the attention of Superin-
tendent OF Public Instruction Lewis,
who referred the matter to Attorney
General Douglas. Following is his
opinion:
Replying to yours of Dec. II. l beg
to advise you that school teachers
who are teaching under verbal con-
tracts with the board, cannot enforce
contracts with the law requires must
be in writing. Whether the teacher
would have any remedy against the
members of the board, should they
refuse to give her u written contract,
is Il question which must be deter
mined by the teacher herself, with
the aid of private counsel.
Where board has employed
teacher without written contract
and the teacher has performed SER
vices, in my opinion, she is not leg
ally entitled to compensation from
the school district and the board
would be authorized to appoint an
other teacher and execute a written
contract with such second teacher.
1t is against public policy and com
mon justice for a school board to en-
ploy teacher and refuse to give her
a written contract"

Killed at the Pioneer.

| Dan accident occurred at the Pioneer
Monday Just before the dinner hour
whereby Matts Joke}a lost his life and
| Matt Daniels was seriously injured.
1t seems that Jokela and Daniels
were doing the blasting i'm a drift and
from all accounts cut the fuse too
short. Several holes were fired and
before the men had time to get away
after firing tile last, the FIRST exploded.
Jokela was hit squarely iE the abdo-
men tearing away the entire middle
part OF his body. Daniels was more
fortunate, having started to run and
had reached within few feet of the
END of the drift where he would have
been safe. A part of the flying dirt
struck him in the back causing sever
al bad wounds. He is at the Shin
man Hospital.
Owing to the illness of Deputy
Coroner Gleason, Deputy Coroner
Trip from Tower came up but after
hearing the evidence of the injured
man ut the hospital and after examin-
ing closely the scene of the accident.
he decided an inquest unnecessary.
The funeral Of the dead man Ocurr-
ed Wednesday from the Finnish
church, Rev. Sarvella officiating, and
the remains were laid away in the
Ely Cemetery. He was 30 wears of
age

More Light,

The city council at Tuesdays meet

This gives the city more metropol-

needed however and the move meets
with the approval of those whose dut-
les compels them to be out after the
