Huntington Gore Man Arrested on Serious
Charge of Arson.
During the past few years nearly every
town in this section has furnished a sem
sation, and Saturday last Huntington
Gore added another to the list, one that
will be discussed for some months.
About l o'clock Saturday morning the
barn on the Nathan Morrison place was
found to be on fire, and the fire had
gained such Roadway that none Of the
contents could be saved and the barn
and sheds adjoining we're destroyed.
The contents consisted Of a large guam
tity of hay and grain, eight cows. one
calf, two horses, horse power thrashing
machine and lot of farm tools. The
loss is estimated at $4,000; of this about
$1,000 was on the barn and sheds. The
contents were uninsured. Peter Lafay-
cite, who carries on the farm, owned the
contents, with the exception of one of the
horses, which was owned by Walter
Brown and valued at 800. The at
tention of some of the neighbors, who
had been called out by the fire, was at
tracted to fresh tracks in the snow leading
toward the barn and from the barn toward
the mountain. This naturally aroused
suspicion that the work was that of an
incendiary, and it was decided to follow
the tracks.
A number at once started and about 4
O'Clock arrived at cabin on the noun
tain occupied by George Henry Morrison
and George Norton. Both were awake
and Morrison is reported to have been
dressed and sitting on his bunk. The
party entered the cabin and Peter Lafay-
cite demanded the arrest of both inmates.
Accordingly George Elliott, second con-
stable of the town of Starksboro, placed
the men under arrest, and, with Walter
Brown as assistant, brought them to this
village and notified the proper officials of
Chlttenden county. They got instruc-
tions to take the men to Burlington,
and went on the afternoon train.
Arriving there the prisoners were given
a hearing before Judge f. w. J. Haw-
kins. Norton was discharged and Morri.
son waived examination and was placed
under $4,000 bonds to await action of the
grand jury. lie was unable to procure
bail and was committed to Jail. Morrison
and Norton were engaged in numbering
on the mountain, hence their occupancy
of the cabin. Morrison is brother OF
Mrs. Peter Lafayette and during the pas
two years has been mixed up In numer
GUS law suits. Several are now pending
Recently he sold horse, owned by him
self and sister, to Pat Hill and his sister
sold it to Walter Brown, each claiming
the right to sell. This caused severa
suits and the end is not yet. These suit
have aroused considerable feeling, and
many think that Saturdays fire was thu
outgrowth of this feeling. - Bristo

THINKS LENS IS WRONG
COUNTY AUDITOR SCOTT DECIDES
TO DISREGARD RAMSEY COUN-
TY JUDGES RULING
IN THE MATTER OF TAX SALES
Scott Insists That Owners Must Pay
Penalties If They Wish Their
Lands Back Up to
Supreme Court.

County Auditor Scott does not propose
to be guided by the decision Of Judge
Lewis, of Ramsey county, in the matter
of the redemption Of property sold at
the forfeiture tax sale last spring. Mr.
Scott says he will insist on the owner
paying the full amount of the delinquent
taxes and penalties to redeem, whereas
Judge Lewis holds that redemption may
be had by paying the amount of the
purchase price with interest.
Some time ago the supreme court de-
cided that the act under which the for
fixture sale took place did not abrogate
the right of the owner to sixty days no
tice for redemption. The purchaser be-
ing required to give this notice, many
of the owners have been coming in to
redeem, and the county auditors have
been requiring the payment of the full
amount of the taxes for which the prop
erty was sold, whereas in many cases the
selling price was not so per cent.
The theory of Judge Lewis decision is
that the state ceased to have any further
lien against the property after selling
it outright, and that the purchaser can
have no claim for more than he paid,
with interest added. County Auditor
Scott will await the action of the su
preme court on the question before he
changes his method, unless an order of
the Hennepin county district court be
secured in the meantime directing him
otherwise.
