Ragnuaid johnson VS.. Carl Kamm
was title of an interesting case in
Judge Henningsen's court last Wednes-
day. Elnar Hoidale represented the
plaintiff and Jos. A. Eckstein the de.
fendant. The interest in the case comes
from the fact that it sought to settle the
right OF one man to obstruct the high
way and the forcible removal of the OBJ
struction by another. Plaintiff johnson
was hauling sawdust out in Cottonwood
township and had unhitched his team
from the wagon to assist another team
up the hill. Defendant Kamm finding
his way blocked by the standing load Of
saWdust proceeded to sclear the track
by upsett1ng the wagon with it's load.
For this plaintiff Johnson brought suit,
claiming incidentally that his wsgon-box
had been broken in the operation. Tue
verdict OF the jury empanneled to try
the case returned verdict of no cause
of action. Hence it will be seen that
highways may not be obstructed with
lmpunity or load of sawdust. Moral,
hitch your wagon to star and keep out
of other peoples way.
The decision which holds former State
Treasurer Bobleter and his bondsmen 1e-
sponsible for the loss of state funds de,
posted by him In banks that failed dur
ing the panic has caused the presenta-
ton OF a bill to relieve treasurers from
the liabilities placed on them by the
present law, andIwhich practically makes
them and their bendsHnen insurers
against the effects of financial panics,
however careful they may be, or howev-
er unable either to forsee or guard
against them and their consequences.
The bill introduced by Senator Young
transfers this responsibility from the
treasurer to the state and safeguards the
funds as far as it is possible to do. It
creates board, composed of the treas
urer, auditor, secretary of state, attorney
general and public examiner, which des-
lgnates the banks of deposit and passes
on the securities. The addition of the
public examiner, who, if capable, can
know the financial condition of the de-
positorles, is an excellent feature. Ger
tainly something should be done to ex-
empt the official from liabilities against
which he cannot prepare and which the
law now obllges him to incur.-St. Paul
Dispatch.
The 'sBuffaloes" secured firm foot
hold in New Ulm, when sixteen braves
were initiated into the mysteries of the
order at the lodge rooms at Turner Hall,
Monday evening. Scouts and hunters
from neighbor1ng towns were in attend
ance experimenting the hunt and all the
participants enjoyed a merry feast when
the buffalo had been captured. The new
lodge possesses all the pharaphernalia to
enable it to do good work in the various
degrees and has established headq
IN their cozy club room at Turner Hall.
The local lodge is fortunate in owning
the only genuine buffalo head in the po-
session of any Buffalo" camp east of the
rockies, secured for them by local cit
izen who is an enthusiastic lodge man.
The lodge room will be open every day,
being guarded by the great hunter known
to the Indians as sSchul Schi Us'' (Big-
chief o-hustles- his sleepy Special

teries of the plains, while the charter
members will proceed with the s.chase."
