as any other individual. The book

Said official further stated that he
would like to make=a copy of the
description and the valuation placed
upon the description entered on the
book. I told him that he had my
permission to do so something that
is being done every day in any and

finish his work before my office
closed in the afternoon, I was asked
if he could take the book in order to
complete his copy in the evening as
it was necessary to have the copy
made that evening.
Inasmuch as he was a gentleman
who stood high in my estimation,
and does today, I accorded him the
privilege on the condition that he
give me his receipt for the book and
promise to lock the book in his
safe over night and return it in the
morning. He did so and the book
was returned as promised. The seri-

Yves Wright Is Very Active.

Yves Wight, who is seeking the
republican nomination for sheriff. of
this county at the forthcoming
primaries, is making a whirlwind
campaign in connection with his
candidacy.
Mr.. Wright is visiting nearly
every family in the county and is
putting forth his claim for the
shrievalty in very strong terms.
Having been a resident of Beltrami
county ever since the settler mixed
with the Indians in this vicinity,
Yves Wright is personally acquainted
with every white men in the county.
In fact, his familiar slap on the back
and hearty How are you,' is known
to every taxpayer of the county.
Yves has a pleasing personality
that takes we'll wherever he goes.
and he is receiving all kinds of
encouragement in his candidacy.
The services rendered the county
by Mr.. Wright since he has been a
member of the board of county CON-
missioners are known and recognized
by the taxpayers and he will
undoubtedly be fully rewarded at
the forthcoming primaries by heavy
vote.
Mr.. Wright is confident that he
will receive the republican nominal
ton and has no doubt of his election
at the general election.

Bemidji, Mimi, Sept. 9.

Bemld)l, M1nn., sept. ,.
To the editor of the Pioneer and the
voters of Beltrami county.
My attention has been called to
an article contained in the Enter
prise, published at Blackjack, set
ting forth certain charges pre-
ferred against me by Mr.. C. O.
Moon, deputy auditor under my
predecessor, David Sylvester, and
at the earnest solicitations of his
friends at Blackjack, retained as
deputy part of the time during my
first term in office.
The fact that the letter addressed
to G.. O. Moon was not written by
A. B. Allen, editor of the Sentinel,
but my opponent, James L. George,
is in a way immaterial as the
charges have been made and it is
up to me to admit or deny them.
AS to the authorship of the letter.
Mr.. A. B. Allen has already replied
in the Sentinel, and that emphatic
denial is reproduced in another
column.
1t is evident that James l.

PROSECUTIONS IN BEMIDu
Local Nimrods Of Jealous and Covetous Nature Would
Question DesMones Mans Yeracity.-We Have
Seen Lake Where He Caught Big Ones.

''Des Moines, Sept. S, 1908.
Mr.. Rutledge, Game Warden, Be-
midi, MINI.
My Dear Rutledge:-
There seems to be a disposition
on the part of my pretentious friends
to take advantage of my absence
and humiliate me with postal cards,
pen sketches, etc., like sample en-
closed. These requests have be-
come so numerous that the postal
clerk has already limited for a horse
and wagon for Christmas, and
notice the government is building
a new commodious postohice here
to make room for the increased
business. If the proof of the pud-
ding is the eating,' why can't the
proof of the catch be made in the
same way! 1t seems 1t is now up
to me to defend myself and as you
sampled and saw the fish some de-
pendence should be put in you.
When a first successful catch, l
was accused of buying everything
on the lake, When I made good and
proved it with larger one, was
accused of dynamiting the lake and
threatened with arrest with exceed
ing the limit of the law.
We'll, there is gallant Doc. He
doesn't know what the wild waves
are saying-here's the truth in
poetry.
Mother may I go out to fish,
Yes, my gallant Frank,
Equip yourself with very long
pole,
And stand safely upon the bank.
