ing the jury which will decide
the fate of the man who is &C,
cused by the grand jury Of MUIR
der in the first degree.
So far there haye been only
four jury men sworn in, and the
prospects are that it will take all
the afternoon as we'll as a good
share of tomorrow to secure
twelve men to sit on the jury.
Artz was arrested last spring
upon a warrant sworn out by
County Attorney Loud and was
held upon preliminary exam
nation to await the action of the
grand jury. He was indicted last
week and his case is the first of
it's nature to come before the
present term of court.
Much interest is manifested
in the case and the court room is
filled with listeners, although the
real trial has not yet begun. The
trial promises to be a long wind.

Cause of LOckiaW.

Lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused
by a bacillus or germ which ex
lists plentifully in street dirt. 1t
is inactive so long as exposed to
the air, but when carried beneath
the skin, as in the wounds caused
by percussion caps or by rusty
nails, and when the air is ex-
Guided the germ is reused to &C
tivity and produces the most vir-
ulent poison known. These
germs may be destroyed and all
danger of lockjaw avoided by ap
plying Cham berlain's Pain Balm
freely as soon as the injury
is received. Pain Balm is an
antiseptic and causes cuts,
bruises and like injuries to heal
without maturation and in one
third the time required by the
usual treatment. Sold by Bar
ker's Drug store.

FLATTERING
Attorneys Bailey & Mcdonald Pay
High Compliment To
the Pioneer.

The Artz case, wherein Frank
Artzis charged with the murder of
Peter Weilander, is on in the dis
trict court today. The matter of
securing a jury is proving to be
d slow process inasmuch as Bal
ley & Mcdonald, attorneys for
Mr.. Artz, object to all jurors who
are subscribers to the Pioneer,
on the ground that the Pioneer
has published accounts Of the
murder and urged editorially the
necessity stamping out lawless-
ness in Beltrami county. Inas-
much as nine out Of ten of the
people of the county take the
Pioneer the work of securing the
jury proceeds very slowly. The
Pioneer appreciates the hand
some compliment which Messrs.
Bailey & Mcdonald pay to it's in

Wagon Road From Baudette
Straight South on The
Range Line.
1T WOULD ACCOMMODATE HUN
DREDS OF SETTLERS.
Saving in Mileage Fees Would
Pay for Road In
Two Years.

To anyone who has for a mo.
ment considered the map of Bel
trami county the need of a wagon
road south from Baudette is one
of the most urgent Of Beltrami
county's needs. There is now a
legally designated road south
from Baudette on the range line
between ranges thirty and thir-
ty-one. This road runs straight
south curving slightly around the
end of Red Lake and then past
Shotley on south to Blackduck.
The distance to Red Lake is
about SO miles while Blackjack
is about the same distance still
further south. The nearest point
to railway connections is Kelliher
which would be about IS miles
from Baudette.
County Surveyor Stoner esti-
mates that the mileage fees paid
by the county in two years would
entirely pay for the cost of the
road, while the benefit to the SET
tiers and to the people of the
county generally would be very
great and the road would prove a
powerful factor in the develop.
ment of the county at both of it's
terminals and along the entire
route. The road would be a d.
rect outlet not only for the great
Rainy River country but for all
the Shotley Brook country and
the Rapid River country terri
tory both of which sections are
fine farming lands already we'll
settled.
The road is a project in which
the people of Beltrami county
are intensely interested and Wig
orous effort should be made this
winter in the legislature to OBJ
tain assistance from the state for
it's construction.

Race With Death.

Brainerd Dispatch: There was
a race with death this afternoon
and it was perhaps one of the
quickest runs ever made between
this city and Little Falls when an
engine and single caboose flew
over the line having aboard John
Henry, an engineer on the main
line who had a sudden attack of
appendicitis and who it was
thought was dying. 1t is said
that the run was made in little
better than forty minutes. Upon
reaching the city Henry was still
alive and will be operated on.

Judge Spear of Gardiner was in the

had a brand new fish story with him.
The judge is a successful fisherman,
inasmuch as he catches fish whenever
he goes, and always gets big ones. Il
trait which he inherited from his faith
en- whose record catch of pickercl ~
inches long. many years ago. stands
vet unchallcnged. The other day, tho
Judge was out fishing in almost the
same place where his father made his
famous catch, on the CobboSScc
stream. and in sight of the old Spt ar
homestead, i'm West Gardiner. Post
master Libby of Gardiner. another in
veterate fisherman. was with him. The
Judge had his bait we'll in among the
lilv paids. and in telling the story. said
that Mr. Libby had just told him that
he would not get any bass in among
the pads, when he got a strike that
made him think for moment that he
had got a fish that would rival the one
his father caught. But when at length
he got the fish up alongside of the boat,
it was a bass Il inches long. and
weighed over four pounds. 1t was
thought by those who heard the story
that there were further details. hu,
lust then the train started,s and tht
