WON'T SELL TO INDIANS.
Prosecutions Will Start if Pledges are
Violated.

While people in the northern part
Of the state have been led to believe
that the department of the inetrior
has stopped all attempt to get evi-
dence against liquor dealers selling in
toxicants to Indians, secretary of the
Prohibition party has received official
notice that special officers have been
at work steadily since the first prose-
cutions and information, sufficient to
convict, has been obtained against five
dealers at Grand Marais, one of the
points at which the illegal trade is
said to have centered.
Three officers arrived at that village,
which is located on the north shore of
Lake Superior in Cook county, about
Nov. 1. Aided by residents of the
town who had entered complaints, evi-
dence against the places selling to In
dians was quickly gathered. In ac-
cordance with the policy of the depart
ment of the interior, the saloonkeepers
were called to the court house and
confronted with the evidence.
Instead Of starting the prosecution,
the special officers presented a COM
plete set of conditions, which bound
the dealers not to sell intoxicants to
the Indians or to allow Indians in their
saloons or barrOOms and to Immediate
ly give information against any person
doing so.
The signatures of every saloonkeep-
nd h0, IT. IN
obtained to the document. This was
then sent to headquarters, with the
evidence which had been obtained.

This statement was made by Gov.

speech at Minneapolis. in which he
advocated a number of reforms which
the state might bring about.

certain standards for oil established
and then severe penalties provided for

large enough to cover the cost of the
inspectors trip and in many cases the
inspector gets big fees for doing little
besides political work. The inspection
could be put on business basis, pay
ing the inspector for the work he does
and not paying for political work.

Montgomery.-Joseph Edel, farm.

from arsenic poisoning. Some time
ago the children, in the absence Of
their parents, found a package of ar.

a clock by Mr.. Edel after he had used
some of it for a horse. The children,
thinking it baking powder, emptied it
into the baking powder can in the
pantry. On Wednesday, Mrs. Edel
used it in making biscuits, of which
Mr.. Edel and the seven children ate
freely.
Mrs. Edel did not eat any of the bis
cults, as she did not sit down with the
rest of the family, but was waiting
upon them and doing other work about
the kitchen. Everything is being done
to save their lives, but as yet the

Attorney General May Act.

Columbus, O., Nov. 26.-When in
formed of Attorney Jeffries's communi-
cation Attorney General Denman said:
If the Jeffries communication con-
tains tangible evidence of the merger,
I will fight to have the deals declared
illegal for violating the state antitrust
laws. Certain published articles make
it appear that the Western Union is
purchasing telephone lines. These
deals might also be declared illegal.
Telephone and telegraph companies
are kindred concerns. If it develops
that the Bell interests have purchased
Ohio Independent lines, this would be
in direct violation of the state anti
trust laws"
