That murder should creep into

The father of the Sampson

IMPORTANT MEETING OF
CITY COUNCIL TONIGHT
New Members Will Take Their Seats
and Appointment Will Probably
Be Announced.

The meeting of the city council to
be held this evening promises to be
of more than ordinary Importance
and interest.
The newly.elected members of the
council will take their seats and after
electing a president pro tenn, the
city employees who are chosen by the
council under the provisions of the
charter will be selected by the
council, and it is more than likely
that Mayor Pogue will also announce
the appointments Of the chief Of
police and members OF the force.
The officials to be selected by the
council are the following: Presi-
dent pro TEN, city attorney, water
commissioner, street commissioner,
water clerk, sexton of cemetery and
scavenger.
While rumors are rife of there
being several candidates for each
appointment, the Pioneer is not
sufficiently informed to make a
prediction as to who is liable to re.
ceive any of the appointments.

GAME WARDENS DOING
VERY EFFECTUAL WORK
Dealer in Moose Meat at Blackjack
Pays Sized Fine for WoIat-
ing Game Law.

A prominent citizen of Blackjack
who gave the fictitious name of
Knute Fullerton" was fined $50
and costs at Blackjack Saturday,
on the charge of having dealt quite
extensively in moose meat. The
explicit charge against Fullerton
was that he bought moose meat.
Fullerton" was brought to grief"
through the efforts of S. C. Bailey
of this city, state game warden
for this district, who has been
working quietly on several import
ant cases, of late.
Mr.. Bailey called to his assistance
w. +. Munich Of Crookston, warden
for the Red River Valley district,
early last week, and they operated
together for several days. They
succeeded in landing Stephen
King for killing two deer near Ten
strike and King paid 500 and costs
for his SPORT
The arrest and conviction of
Fullerton" followed the King case,
in both of which the defendants
pleaded guilty, without putting up
any fight.
It is the intention of the State
Game and Fish Commission to put
an efectual stop to a practice which
has prevailed to a more or less
extent among the inhabitants of the
north woods of killing deer
and moose whenever desired, at all
seasons of the year, and in some
instances trafhcking in the meat;
and sufficient wardens will be fur
nished the local representatives of
the commission to effectually per-
form the work.
Sentiment has changed very per-
ceptibly, during the past two years,
with regard to the enforcing of the
game laws in the northern woods.
A few years ago man could kill
deer and moose to his hearts con-
tent, and all he had to do to insure
his release from punishment was to
assert that he was homesteader
getting something to eat" The jury
would with alacrity declare the
prisoner not guilty." in spite of
any convincing evidence: It is
different now; the men who are
farming hereabouts are beginning to
realize that they must assist in the
protection of the big game or deer
and moose will rapidly follow the
buffalo and will soon be extinct.

decisions made him noted all over
northern Minnesota.
He was one of the organizers of
Norman county and was judge Of
probate Of that county several years,
besides being for some time mayor
of Ada, the county seat. He was
also, at one time, mayor of West
Duluth.
Judge Martin was appointed assist
ant county attorney for St. Louis
county last December, assuming his
duties early in January.
Judge Martin was DR.. Ames' attor-
ney in the famous trial of the doctor,
when he was tried for corruptness
while mayor of Minneapolis.
The deceased is survived by a
wife and four children, the eldest,
Dennis Martin, being resident of
California. Lulu, Warwick and
Maurice Martin reside at home in
Virginia.
Z Judge Martin was universally we'll
liked in Bemidji and the surround

Professor A. P. Richie, superin-

The announcement Of the death
of Judge Martin came as a shock to
his many friends in Bemidji, where
he was prominent character during

But few Bemidji people were
aware that the judge had been ill,
and his death was unexpected to the
people here.

absent and he would be able to pass
the report. McGarry was allowed
the delay, but his attempt to have
the matter 90 over until Saturday
was thwarted by a motion to adiourn
until Monday,.which prevailed, and
the Cass Lakers were compelled to
be satisfied with the delay until
Monday.
It is more than likely that Chair

the passage of the Kinds general
