KILLED AT KERRICK.

George Warnings of Green Lake Acci-
dentaHy Killed Yesterday Morning. 4:
Yesterday John Warnings, who lives
on farm in Isanti county, in the vi
cinity of Green lake, received a tele-
gram from Harley Wright at Kerrick,
stating that Mr.: Warnings brother
George, had been killed yesterday
morning. The telegram did not state
the cause of his death, though the I'M
fortunate man probably met death by a
falling tree. His brother, John War
rings says that he received letter two
days ago from George stating that he
was not feeling well and he hoped to
return home soon. He left for the
woods about two months and half ago
and was employed in Harley Wright's
camp near Nickerson. The young man
made his home with his brother John.
They moved onto the farm at Green
lake two years ago from Nebraska. He
was born in northern Germany Dec. 10,
1875. He leaves a mother and sister
who lives in Iowa and second brother
resides in Nebraska. The body will
arrive tomorrow morning and the
funeral will be held at the Methodist
church, Rev. GratZ officiating.

Oregon Land Commissioner Arrested.

G. W., Van Wormer has received a
copy of the Portland Oregonian in
which mention is made of the arrest of
the o. S. land commissioner at Prime
vile, Oregon, where many of the stone
and timber claim entries have been
made by Princeton parties and
others. The q. s.. district attorney
caused the arrest of the commissioner
on the grounds that the latter had been
acting without authority, his commits
sion having expired last October. The
commissioner says that there was no
intent to defraud, as he had not sup
posed that his time had expired, and
ne says that no parties who have made
maj proof during the time the govern
ment claims he had acted without
authority will suffer, as, if it is neces-
sary, congress can pass a special act
validating all the entries and final
proofs. =, =

Mr.. Galley brought up the matter of
re-organizing the fire department and
stated that the council ought to make
arrangements to pay the members of
the department for responding to fire
alarms and for work at fires. The
council was in hearty accord with Mr..
Caley's suggestion and a resolution was
adopted pledging the support of the
council to the fire department.. Mr..
Galley was authorized to look the mat
ter up and report at the next meeting
of the council.
On motion of Mr.. Galley the council
decided to make a rate for the use of
lights after midnight at the rate of a
dollar an hour for dances, private par
ties, etc. = - s.@.s..
The question of peddlers' licenses
came up and the marshal was instructed
to see that all parties peddling goods
and wares in the village be made to
pay for the privilege, and President
Bryson suggested that the council get
after the new merchants with a "grand-
Observation-Disclosures" sale who come into
town and remain long enough to sell a
lot of cheap goods to the detriment of
the merchants of the place. It was
thought that all new merchants could
be taxed the sum of $40 or more and
the same RELATED to them after they
had become acclimated and permanent
residents of the place.
The liquor licenses were raised to
$500 by the council after some discus
sion OF the matter of an increase. Some
were in favor of making the license
81, 900, and the matter was compro-
missed at $500. This is an increase of
Sl25 over last year. New bonds for sa-
loon keepers obligate them to keep all
slot machines and gambling devises out

The council started in to establish
the salary of the marshal, attorney and
other appointive Offices, but finally laid
the question over until the next meet
ing. -,
There was some complaint of the fire.
auent loud use of obscene language on
the streets and in public places and
those who violate the law in this re-
spect will be looked after more closely
in the future. The marshal will be in
structed to see that order is maintained
in the postoffice in the evening while
the mail is being distributed. There
are lot of hangers-on who are getting
to be a nuisance and Postmaster Cor
fdiner intends to put a stop to it if pos
sible. FsS'+ -
The bonds of the treasurer and re-
corder were approved, that of the for
mer at S., 900, and the latter at $1,000.
A representative of the National
Water Meter Co. was present and ad-
dressed the council on the use of water
meters by which it is possible for a vii
lage or city to make great saving in
it's water supply, much of which with
out the use of meters is wasted. With
meter system every person using
water pays for the water that is used,

rate being thirty-fve cents for every

in such manner that the conductor

Getting Back to Gods Country.

Lyman County Record: Three
wagons of emigrants with a bunch
OF horses passed through Dirkstown
today on the way to their old home
near Mitchell. They had drove all
the way from Alberta, Canada, a
distance Of LOGO miles, in 9 weeks, or
about 80 miles a day. They saw
crops there are good but the weather
is too cold for comfort and they we're
persuaded to try the country at the
instance of friends, but they have
got enough Of it and were singing
songs and cracking jokes as they
drove along in the mud and rain
this (Thursday) morning. One of
the drivers was overheard to remark
that this is what they call the
stuff that lays the DUST
The above will afford the Canadian
papers an opportunity to hop on the
settlers who are leaving that country
and declare they knew nothing
about it, as such has been their pro-
cedure in similar instances. These
kind OF lessons are being set before
the people Of this state by their
neiehbors who have been there and
are anxious to get back into Gods
country once more.
