cFulton Leader.)

The local option contest case IS prac
tlcaliy at an end, Circuit Judge Joe
Robbins decided that the whisky e-eo-
pie have no legal case and that the
county election commissioners COM
posed by Henry Knight, George Car
penter and J. C. Brann, cannot try the
case and Judge Kearby, County Judge
of Fulton county, must record the cleo.
tionscertificates aud the local option
law in the city Of Fulton go INTO effect.
Attorneys Ed Thomas and I. n. smith
for the local option people and Messrs
w p. Nolen and Mack Moss represent
ing the same went to Hickman this
morning with the judges decision and
had the clerk to prepare and serve no.
tice on County Judge Kearby to record
the Election certificate. They made
bond for $500 to save Judge Kearby
from expense in cost at latter time the
case should be changed.
Judge Kearby afterward entered the
certificate on record and the local option
law is now in full force and effect and
when their license expires in January
the saloon men will have to quit busl-
ness. The license of Henry knight and
Sam Ford expire January 4, 1908.
HISTORY OF CASE.
The local option election was held in
Fulton September %, 1902.
The anti-saloon people won the cleo.
ton by 81 votes and the saloon people
filed contest of the election. The
County Election Commission met later
to decide the case and were enjoIned
from sitting on the case. At the same
time the local option people filed man.
damus suit TO compel Judge Kearby TO
record the election certificate. The
case was later argued before Circuit
Judge Robbins at Mayfield and he re-
served his opinion for ten days, but did
not decide it until to-day. His decision
was that he sustained the motion of
the mandatory injunction and refused
TO dissolve the injunction preventing
the election commission from trying
the case, thereby deciding that the
whisky people had no case or the CON-
missioners no legal right to try the
case. This VIII practically end the
lcontest.

prudent thing for the cavalcade to go back
to Fort Ridgley, in view of the presence
of the women and children in the party,
but Mr.. Steele and I talked it over and de-
cided that as we had a good team, we
would push ahead slowly until we really
saw the Indians ourselves Soon we did
see a spot of red on the plain, and as we
advanced we saw it move. We pushed
on very cautiously, and presently the man
saw that we were whites and stood up.
He told us that his wife and family had
been killed by the Indians, and that he
had escaped and was trying to make his
way to the fort. He said that he had
seen some mounted men advancing,
toward him, but that as soon as they
caught sight of him they ran like the
DEVIL
eve were rather amused at Aliens
taking alarm so easily, although it was
really the only prudent thing for him and
Major Galbreathto o do to make sure of the
safety Of their convoy. 1t only illustrates
the error which the word Indian car
ried with it in those days. Mr.. Steele and
myself accordingly pushed on reaching St..
Peter that night without seeing single
Indian. One the way we stopped
where had stood the house Of Mrs.
Bush, who kept halfway station be-
tween the fort and St. Peter. Her house
had been burned, but we found black
chicken, killed and skinned it, and nailed
the skin upon a tree where it would easily
be seen by anyone passing by. Under
meath we wrote upon sheet of paper
This is Little Crow an illusion to the
famous Indian chief leader of the out
break. We then described how we had
found Mr.. Aliens Indians, and not having
been killed by them would go on through
to st. Peter.
''This incident came near causing a ser
ious alteration between Mr.. Steele and
Major Galbreath later, when Mr.. Steele
twitted the major With the circumstance
in the Merchants hotel in st. Paul.

HAVE SCHOOL OF MINES
No Need of Another, Says President
NorthrOp.

President Northrop of the state univer-
sity does not favor the establishment of
separate mining college in the iron
country, as suggested by the State Edi-
torial association. Minnesota.,. he says,
does not need two such Institutions At
the state university there is school Of
mines for which building costing $47, 900
has just been completed. 1t is equipped
with everything modern in the field of
mining instruction and has in connec-
tion complete ore testing works. In this
school there is a professor in mining, a
professor in metallurgy, a professor in
mathematics and several assistants.
There are two four-year courses, one
leading to the degree of mining engineer
and the other to metallurgical engineer.
The department has from so to 100 stu
dents and is growing rapidly. It is the
aim Of the university management to
make the course as practical as possible
and to that end the students spend five
weeks of every year in the mining dis
tricts Of Minnesota, Colorado or Michi-
gan.
The argument that Michigan has g
school of mines at Houghton will have
no bearing on the situation in Mime
sota because there is no department OF
mining in connection with the state uni
versity.

IN DAYS OF TERROR
Geo. A. Bracket Tells Of an Event
full Pioneer Trip Just After
Birch Coulie Fight.
With Franklin Steele, He Made the
Trip Through the Raw
aged Country.

AN interesting anecdote in connection
with the Indian outbreak of 1852 is re-
lated by George A. Bracket, one OF the
pioneers of Minnesota, hut now resident
of Seattle. Mr.. Bracket pays high
tribute to the bravery of the late Frank
lin Steele, for many years resident OF
this city. g
"Mr. Steele and myself" said Mr..
Bracket, "went from st. Peter to Fort
Ridgley on the day the wounded We're
brought in from Birch Coulie, and, a day
or two after the fort had been relieved.
We. were the first men to go through from
St. Peter without an escort. One of the
first faen we saw was Dave Redteld, one
of the: best known of the early settlers,
who had been wounded in the ankle at
Birch Coulie. For heaven sake, George,
said Dave as soon as he saw us, have you
got a sdrink?' Mr.. Steele and myself had
brought a bottle of rum with us, and Mr..
Steele handed it over to Dave, who pulled
and pulled at the bottle until had serious
fears about our recovering any or tne
liquor. Finally when he handed the bottle
back asked Steele for the cork. Never
mind the cork said Dave, Just give me
back the BOTTLE
"The morning after our arrival Cen
eral Sibley sent out the women and chill
dren and other refugees who had collect
! ed at Fort Ridgley with a strong guard OF
cavalry on the way to St. Peter. Just be-
| fore we started some moving objects were
seen off on the prairie, and great com
motion ensued, as it was naturally
feared that the Indians were coming
again. Soon, however, we could see
wagon with man walking beside it. II
turned out to he Old Paul, Christian In:
dian, who had stolen a German woman
and her children from the hostile band
and was aiding them to escape. You cal
see that there really were few rea
Christians among the Indians even ir
| those days.
after the cavalry and their convoy
had started, Mr.. Steele and myself re-
mained behind for some time taking mes
sages from General Sibley to carry to st
Peter. We had only gone a short distance
from the fort when we saw the cavalcadt
coming back at full speed. They reported
that the Indians were coming. We per

NIGHTS AT TIE FAIR

Evening entertainments Of high order
have now become settled feature of the

strated that the people want some sort of
amusement at the fair grounds in the
evening. Many people who have been

like to go to- the fair grounds rather
late in the afternoon, spend short time
in examining the exhibits, take supper
at the grounds, see few more exhibits
under electric light, and spend the re
mainder Of the evening at the grand
stand. For this years evening enter
