TERM OF DISTRICT COURT
TO BE HELD AT BAUDETTE
Will Begin Next Tuesday, and Judge Stanton Will Preside
Eighteen Civil Cases on Calendar.-Special
ill.,. Law Made Term Possible.

For the first time in the history OF
Beltrami county, regular term OF
court will be held in the county out.
side of the county seat-Bemidj il.
The term will be held at Baudet te,
beginning next Tuesday, and there
promises to be considerable litiga-
ton. judge c. w. Stanton of this
city will preside. The judge and
Clerk of Court Rhoda will go from
Bemidji to Baudette by way of
International Falls.
The court calendar is being
printed, having been closed today.
There are eighteen civil cases on the
calendar, with no criminal causes to
try at this session.. The cases are
being handled by attorneys living
outside Bemidji, with the exception
of one Gibbons & Torrance heing
counsel in one case.
Terms of court for the north end
of Beltrami county were made
possible by the passage of special
act of the legislature last winter,
whereby one or more terms could
be held at Baudette, and if desired
the terms could be alternated be-
tween the village of Baudette and
Spooner, which places are bitter
rivals.
Because of the difficulty in reach
ing Bemidji from Spooner and
Baudette and other northern points,
there has been much complaint
for the past two years among the
north-country people as to the big

expense and loss of time in attend
ing court in Bemidji, and the matter
took tangible form last winter
through the introduction of bill in
the legislature, the bill being ap-
proved by the judges of the district
court and all the county officers
directly affected. il
Under the provisions of the law,
one or more terms may be held
each year at Baudette or Spooner,
the time and place of holding the
terms to be fixed by the judge by
order made and filed with the clerk
of court at least thirty days before
the time appointed to hold the term.
The business to be brought before
the court at these north-country
terms shall be such as shall be
agreed upon by the parties to the
litigation, and in case they cannot
agree on the matter the court shall
decide, prior to the holding of the
term. All appeals from municipal
or justice court that are situated
north of the 18th standard parallel,
being the town line between towns
Nos. 156 and 157, shall be tried at
Baudette or Spooner, unless by
stipulated agreement the parties
thereto decide on trying the cases at
the county seat.
The village of Baudette provides
suitable place for holding the term,
without expense to the county.
No Jurors are to be chosen from
any district south of the 18th
standard parallel.

CLAIMS CHANGE In. GAME
LAWS BENEFIT POOR MAN
Claim Made by Executive Agent of Game and Fish Com
mission that Change Of Open Season for Birds
Is Beneficial.

for ducks and chicken presented last
winter made the season open Sept
| IS. Representative Mattson intro
duced that bill.
His idea was that the birds get
stronger by that time, the hot
weather is over and the harvest is
done. In the northern part of the
state, where the best hunting is
found, there is often a great deal OF
grain standing Sept. 1, and the
hunters do considerable damage
going through the fields.
Then we learned that North
Dakota had passed a law opening
the season Sept. 7, and the date in
this state was made to correspond,
as it is always desirable to have the
laws of that character uniform with
those of other states
Mr.. Avery admitted that the
change would prevent good many
hunters from enjoping the double
holiday in their favorite sport, but
he thought this would be confined
to the larger cities, and would not
effect the smaller cites and rural
districts where Labor day is not OBJ
served. He thought that it had not
occurred to the committee in the
legislature that the change of date
would spoil a two-day holiday for
many hunters. He tried to figure
out that some years Labor day would
come after the hunting season, but
the best he could figure out was that
about every seventh year the man
who takes the two.day trip will be
allowed to hunt on Monday, but not
on Saturday or Sunday"

Carlos Avery, executive agent of
the State Game and Fish commission,
has made answer as follows to the
article printed in the St. Paul
Pioneer Press and reproduced in the
Pioneer:
The only way we can provide
any hunting for the poor man is
to make game plentiful and any
thing which restricts the shooting
will have that effect is the
answer of Carlos Avery, executive
agent of the state game and fish
commission, to the statement made
by Deputy County Auditor James
Drummond that the new law which
makes the season open Sept. 7 in
stead of Sept. 1, hurts the poor man.
The reason given was that Labor
day, which comes on the first Mon
day in September, gave the ordinary
workingman or clerk a holiday of
two days or three if he counts Satur-
day afternoon, which would enable
him to 90 for hunting trip.
The new law makes the season
open this year the day after Labor
day."
In the first place, said Avery, it
is unlawful to hunt on Sunday any
way, as hunting is one of the things
prohibited in the Sabboth observ-
ance law. But that is not in the
game laws, and we have not consid-
cred it our duty to enforce that law.
If it were enforced it would be one
of the greatesr aids in the protection
and increase of game.
