Will Address People of Beltrami County

Messrs. GrimshaW and Cation.

Robert G. Dunn, republican
candidate for governor of Mime

morning from Crookston and will
speak at the opera house this
evening on the state issues in the

shall Grimshall will be in on the
evening train.
Mr.. Dunn spoke at Crookston
last evening to an audience that
packed the opera house notwith-

dress is devoted entirely to state
matters and is replete with inter
esting information concerning
the history of the past few years
in Minnesota. No man in Min

government and the resources of
the state as does Mr.. Dunn, and
his address, delivered in a
straightforward, plain spoken
manner is a revelation concern

All along the line this morning
crowds greeted Mr.. Dunn at
every station. Beginning with
Mentor where some fifty people
shook hands with the next GOV
ernor of the state there was a
crowd of fifty or sixty at every
station. At Mcintosh a hundred
people were out. At Fosston a

about $50 people had gathered to

ROEN GOES
SCOT FREE
Buzzle HOmesteader Accused
of Manslaughter Is Re-
leased by Jury.
.JURY'S VERDICT RETURNED In
TWO HOURS.
Roen Says That HencefOrth
Strong Drink Will Be Left
Alone by Him.

The jury in the case of the
State of Minnesota VS.. Bernsvend
Roen, the Buzzle homesteader
who was accused by the grand
jury of manslaughter in the first
degree, returned averdict shortly
after supper time last night Of
not guilty.
AS stated in yesterdays Pho
neer, the states case was weak
and little testimony was intro
duced to show that Roen even
killed his neighbor. The defense
put up was that Roen, admitting
that he killed Bakken, was too
drunk at the time he com mitted
the crime to know what he was
doing.
Roen remained in the city over
night and left this afternoon for
Solway, from where he will pro
coed to his homestead. Before
leaving Mr.. Roen stated to the
Pioneer that he was very glad to
have been set free and was thank
full to Judge Spooner and every
member of the jury who sat upon
the case. "Henceforth", said
Mr.. Roen, "liquor of an intoxi
eating nature will never enter my
mouth, and nothing will ever in
duce me to take another drink. y

time free. Messrs. Bailey &
Mcdonald, attorneys for Founier
demanded immediate trial of
Fourier, and Mr.. Loud did not
think that the evidence in his
possession was strong enough to
convict Fourier, and his action
was taken so that should any new
evidence be- adduced against
Fourier he could be rearrested
and tried.
