mar, Of Bemidji who is connected
With tie commercial club of the city
ste What was being done towards
securing the 500 fol-; the city; and he
was given no information whatever
on the subject" said Mr.. Brown,
*sdntil these proceedings. were com.
&menced.' ~, ~: -
J. Mr.. Brown believed that the
council, by granting the twenty feet
Of highway was giving away forever
to the 500 railway a portion of a
public road that was needed. There
was noright given by the statute or
the city charter whereby the council
could give the part of the road in
question: for more than twenty-five
years. ':5(The speaker quoted authori-
ties which he claimed bore out this
contention.) No perpetual privilege
could be granted to anyone without
being first submitted to 4 vote of the
people.
In this writ, claimed MI. Brown,
it was necessary to present orders.
He did not dispute the law as quoted
by Judge Spooner, but he was of the
opinion that the act of the council
was somewhat judicial, or quasijudi-
cial.
~ This resolution of the council
was passed unbeknown to any per-
son outside the council or the CON-
mercial club" said MI. Brown,
passed one evening and signed by
the mayor the next day."
Mr.. Brown claimed there were two
ways in which the council could have
granted this highway, one by agree
ment with the city council, the other
by condemnation proceedings. s
Mr.. Brown recited some authori-
ties which he thought bore him out
in his contention that the proceed.
ings Of the council were of judicial
nature and therefore subject to
review.
Asked by. Judge Wright as to
how much stress he put on the fact
that the mayor signed the resolu-
ton prior to the four days provided
in the charter, and MIR. Brown
admitted that he put little faith in
that circumstances, and that the
petitioner lost little if any of his
rights by that act. 49,
Asked if he claimed that the
action of the council was null and
void, Mr.. Brown said he believed
that the council went beyond its
authority. !
F. Judge Wright said that the pro
per remedy for any person who
believes himself peculiarly injured
by this action of the Bemidji city
council in granting the twenty feet
of road was to enjoin the 500 rail.

John Brown, county surveyor Of
Itasca county, came to Bemidji this
morning from his home At Grand
Rapids and spent several hours here,
leaving on the delayed morning
train for Funkley to look after some
official matters at that place.
The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1909-12-08

do, because its acts was in the nature
of legislative act. The actions of
the council were not in any way
judicial, and consequently 10 part
of their actions were subject to
review, according to the, section of
the law which was quoted by the
Judge.
Another thing the judge con-
tended was that the damage COM
planned of by the petitioner, Opsahl,
must be sustained by the petitioner
other than that sustained by the
public at lar &c. 1t. made no differ
ence whether he owned the, prop
erty on both sides:o of the lake or not.
Granting 81 that might be con-
tended in tha<complaint, even if the
matter weres brought up under
proper proceedings, the fact that the
mayor did not wait four days before
signing the resolution did not invali-
date the resolution. The resolution
could become valid if he did not
sign it at all, If this we're not true,
any mayor s. Bemidji could defeat
any n easate passed by the council
if he failed, at the expiration of four
days, sign the resolution. If he
had no riekt>to sign within four days
and failed to sign it at all his act is
negatory andat the end OF seven
days the measure in question became
a law.
= :. According to the judge it was not
the intention Of the charter that, if
the mayor signed the first day after
the passage of a resolution, that
resolution would be defeated.
i; No substantial injustice had been
done to Jens J. Opsahl through the
fact that the mayor had signed the
resolution passed by the council the
next day after the resolution had
been passed.
City Attorney Gibbons was asked
it he: desired to make any remarks
and he stated that Judge Spooner
had fully covered the ground:
John R. Brown, as attorney for
Jens:J. Opsahl, spoke for the petit
toner.
Mr.. Brown admitted that Judge
Spooner had clearly outlined the
purpose in the construction of the
500 railway through the city, and
as to the number of citizens back
of the movement.
1T would seem preposterous,"
said Mr.. Brown, that one man
alone would fight big corporation
like railroad and large number
of his own citizens. While such a
project as building a great railroad
through a city might on the surface
be approved by everybody, yet there
might be many against the PROPOSE
ton, but they would say nothing."
Mr.. Brown contended that there
was only wagon road whereby any,
one can get in and out of the city
to the eastward. He had heard
that since these proceedings had
been commenced by J. J. Opsahl the
Crookston Lumber company had
been pinned down to the statement
that the company would not give
any portion of it's property towards
providing for road space to overcome

KILLED FOR HER MONEY.
Body of a Georgia Lady Found With
Skull Crushed.

News has just reached Broxton,
Ca, of the murder Of Miss Matte
Graham, which occurred some, time
during Thursday night near her
home, two miles north of Hokesboro,
in Coffee county. The woman was
dragged to branch half mile from
her house, where evidences of a des-
perate struggle ensued. The body
was beaten and the skull crushed.
The object of the murder was evil
dently robbery as she was a rich
woman. Ar autopsy, however, may
reveal evidence Of more serious
crime. She was prominent and high
ly connected.
Miss Graham was one of two maid
en- sisters who occupied their home
alone. The other sister was away
from home at the time of the mur-
der and there Is no clue to the per-
petuators Of the deed.
Sheriff Dave Ricketson was at once
notified and, in company with the
coroner, went to the scene of the
crime.
