CASE OF SHERIFF sANNoN.

Grafton Paper Does Not Take Very
Serious View Of the Proposed I'm.
parchment Of Sheriff eannon.
Sufficient names have been secured
at Grafton to the petition being circu-
lated for the calling Of a grand jury
for investigating charges brought
against Sheriff Bannon of Walsh coun-
ty. It is alleged that the sheriff has
been protecting blind piggers of the
county. The move to have him i'm
peaehed was started by R. J. O'Dowd
and John H. Lewis, who have been in
Grand Forks city for several weeks,
evading punishment for keeping blind
pigs in Grafton. Commenting on the
move the Grafton News and Times
says:
In December last, r. J. O'Dowd and
John H. Lewis Commonly known as
"Black JOHNNY were arrested upon
the complaint of spotter named
Hanson, charged with blind pigging
in this city. They had a hearing and
we're held to appear for trial at the
recent January term Of the district
court. When their cases were called
for trial at that term they filed the
necessary papers to compel a change
of venue, and their cases were accord
ingly sent to Pembina county for trial,
and accordingly released. No sooner
were they out ON bail than they imme-
diately resumed the dispensing of
"booze" at the old stand This being
brought to the notice of the states at
torney, and feeling that SO fragrant a
violation of the law could not be toler-
ated, he caused an inquest into the
matter to be held and papers were is
sued for the apprehension Of these es-
Unable gentry on the charge Of con-
tempt Of court. Before they could be
again arrested, however, the matter of
the inquest in some manner leaked
out and this duo of injured innocents
Immediately took French leave for
East Grand Forks, where they have
ever since been sojourning.
This is the extent Of the "promi.
nent" business backing which this
project possesses ODowd, Lewis and
couple of their ex-patrons and well
known tools-these and these only.

SHORT RIDE ON THE SIDE
DOOR SLEEPER COMES HIGH
Charles o. FindIey, Trying to Reach
Home With Money on Him, Runs
Into Railroad Detective.

Charles o. Findley. in his endeavor
to reach home with a few dollars on
him, rode the side-door sleeper from
Joliet to this city on the Rock Island
road last evening. and fell into the
arms of Detective Mitcler an employee
of the road, at the Fifth avenue sta
zion. Findley was turned over TO PO-
iceman Theo Peterson.
Findley resides in Colorado Springs.
He had been in Chicago for some time.
Yesterday he started back west. He
bought a ticket for Joliet, thinking he
would run less chance of discovery in
stealing a ride from a small city than
in the big town by the lake, where
there are so many plain clothes
sleuths around the railroad depots. and
where one has TO show that he has
been to see the man in the ticket of
fee and prove an alibi before he can
get through the big iron gate.
Findley's plan was 10 ride as far as
possible without paying fare. When
within a short distance from home he
would wire the folks that he was on
the way and would buy a ticket and
alight at the depot like ready money.
He had a hearing this morning be-
fore Magistrate Johnson. The charge
in effect was that Findley had been
riding without a license. He was
fined s., and settled, having SIS when
placed under arrest.
