A TALE OF TWO BEERS.
Saloon Keeper Arrested for Selling Beer
to MinOrs.--Jury Disagrees.

~ NAlhOIs.--ouEy DlSaSf0eS.
Justice Chadbourne held court in
the village hall on Thursday and Fri
day of last week, the case for trial be-
ing one in which Cerelle Belair was
charged by Mrs. John Selander. with
having sold beer to her son, Charles
Brace on the Fourth.
Mr.. Belair retained G. A. Dickey
as his attorney while County Attorney
Ross represented the State. The case
was brought before Justice Norton
first and had progressed SO far as
having drawn a jury when a motion
was made by the defendant for a
change of venue which Justice Norton
readily granted, though there ap-
peared to be a difference of opinion
as to the legality of such a change
and Mr.. Ross was at first 10th to fol-
low the case to another court, but JUS
tice ChadbOurne said that he would
proceed with the case as he thought
that it was properly before his court
and to accommodate the court, the at
torneys, jury, and witnesses and the
crowd that wanted to hear and see.
court sat in the village hall and tried
the case.
1t was claimed that a young man
nineteen years of age whose name is
Larson, and who is from the town of
Burns. Anoka county, went into the
saloon with young Brace and called
for and received two glasses of beer
which they drank as they stated on
the stand, and they testified that Mr..
Belair's bartender, Aaron Bangstrom.
sold them the beer and identified him
as the man who dispensed the intoxi-
eating refreshments. Mrs. Selander
and a lot Of other witnesses were
placed on the stand. It was stated
that young Brace was made pretty
sick late in the evening and his mother
said that it was from the effects of
drinking the beer, which the boys
drank just before dinner. The bar
tender testified that he never saw the
boys before and that there was a bic
crowd in the saloon at the time it was
claimed that he sold them the beer.
and he could not remember individual
patrons of the place. -.-.
The jury that was drawn to try the
case was one of the most representa-
tive juries that could be secured and
It was made up mostly of business
men Of the place. Eight of them were
of the opinion that the evidence was
not convincing enough on which to
convict while four voted for convic-
ton, and the vote stood this way for
two hours, when the jury made up it's
mind that an agreement would be i'm
possible. They so informed the court
and the case was dismissed. It is
said that the case will be taken to the
district court next fall.

Comparing the assessors returns
with those of two years ago it is found
that Borgholm stands practically the
same as returned in 1902, when the
county board gave it a very liberal
increase and with the increase made
by the State board, raised the valua-
ton considerably. All the other
towns show an increase in valuation.
The realty valuation of the county
compared with the value as established
by the State board. is nearly s40O, 900
loves this year. and if the basis of
valuation established by the State
board two years ago is observed by
the county board of equalization the
assessors returns will have to be
boosted a few notches.
The personal property valuation of
the county as equalized by the county
board last year was S44S. SIS, and this
figure was raised some by the State
board, SO that it will be seen that the
assessors returns on personal prop
erty are lower than the value estab-
lished by the county board. AS the
actual real and personal assets of
Mile Laos county are enhancing in
value instead of decreasing the
chances are good for a very liberal
raise in valuations in Mile Laos
county.
The real estate valuation for the
village of Princeton amounts to $780,
l49 as against S174,676 as returned
two years ago. This is an increase of
S44, Alb. The realty valuation exclu-
sive OF structures and Improvements
amounts to $Sl,347, and structures
and improvements S137,8O2 The per-
sonal property of the village amounts
to Sll5, 400, as against S107, 436 year
ago. Household goods are valued at
Sll,3lO and goods and merchandise
$40, 1903. The increase this year in
goods and merchandise amounts to
$4,000. There is an increase of 81, 700
in pianos, and $500 in watches and
clocks. In manufacturers material
and articles of manufacture the in
crease over last year is $1,000.
According to the assessors returns
roughly estimated there are household
goods in the whole county amounting
to little over S26, 900 and the returns
on all goods and merchandise in
Mile Laos county amounts to little
over 1853, 900.
Steamboats, and sailing vessels at
Isle Harbor are valued at 1888. at
Onamia an even 500 and at South
Harbor 1925. Manufacturers mate
rails and articles of manufacture in the
village of Milaca are estimated at
5000 the Foley Bean Lumber Co.
representing most of this sum. Live
stock in the county as returned by the
assessors is as follows: One-year-old
cattle, 2,l4l; twos, 1866; COWS, 1926,
Milo leading with 300, followed by
Greenbush with 1853 and Princeton
town $50. There are pretty close to
1000 horses in the county, Princeton
town leading with 1882. Isle Harfor
returns 100 oxen, and Borgholm
thirty-six. There are less than
thousand hogs in the entire county,
that is for taxable purposes, the re-
turns showing S76.

There was quite a grist of bills that

minor county affairs the board had
the annual tax levy to make and it
voted the sum of 1926. 800 for this pur-

The board also made the road work
appropriations for the various towns
and districts. For the towns of
Princeton, Greenbush, Milo, Bogus
Brook, Borgholm and Milaca the sum
of $500 each was set aside for road
work. The town of Hayland was
given 5000, and the Fifth commissioner
district, the lake district $1,000. The
road appropriation is some larger
than last year, when the towns in the
lower part of the county received $500,
but the increase is none too large.
when the growth of the county and the
increased valuation is considered.
The board adjourned Tuesday and
will meet as the board of equalization
on next Monday, and after finishing
it's work will re-convene and finish up
some of the county business.
