BAD TANGLE IN THE SWAMP
LANDS AROUND CASS LAKE
Congressman ndbergh Trying to Adjust Forest Reserve
Disputes Settlements Are at Stake and Interest of
the Indians Must Be Protected.

Washington, March 27.-Charles
A. Lindbergh, of the Sixth Min
nesota district, has been examining
the title to the Minnesota forest
and to lands in that district, and
finds a peculiar state of affairs.
THE lands were originally a part
of the Chippewa and Winnibigoshish
reservations, but were released to
the United States under a treaty
authorized by congress. The act
of 1900 fixed the limits of the forest
reserve and provided for homestead
settlement of some of the lands. 1t
is now found that there are conflict
ing interests which will tie up matters
until such time as a policy of adjust
ment can be settled upon.
The State of Minnesota, under
the swamp land grant act, claims all

STATE SENATOR WORKS
MADE BEMIDJI A VISIT
Spent Part Of Sunday Here. Has Been
Our Friend in the State Normal
School Fight.

State Senator S. D. Works of Man.
kato spent several hours in Bemidj
yesterday, looking after some bust
ness interests which he has in this
vicinity and incidentally renewed
his local friendships and talked
briefly of measures that are now
pending in the legislature.
Senator Works owns some valu.
able farming lands in Polk county
and his especial object in leaving
the legislative solons and coming
| north was for the purpose of visiting
Crookston and talking over arrange.
ments for seeding on his lands. He
is interested in 1918 acres of land.
all of which is located in Polk
county, large portion Of which is
near Euclid, north of Crookston.
The senator is in need of horses for
his farms and he came to Bemidji in
the hope of securing some of the
animals which have been used during
the past winter in the logging camps
in this vicinity.
Senator Works stated that the
legislative session is drawing to a
close and there is a noticeable
scurrying on the part of many mem
beers to rush pet measures through,
and from now on until adjournment
things will be very lively about the
state capitol building.
While the senator would give out
nothing for publ:s.ntion as to what
he thought the chances were for the
Cass Lake normal school bill to pass
the house, he opined that the bill
would have tougher Shedding" in the
house than it had in the; senate: and
smiled with an expression that in.
Dictated something under the un-
rippled sea of Cass Lake confidence
that might indicate trough seas
ahead.

swamp lands, having designated
some as definitely coming under the
grant, and others as likely included
Meanwhile, allotments have beer
made to the Indians, and, in con,
siderable number of cases, patents
have been issued. The patents in
Guiding swamp lands are now in
danger of cancellation and it will
involve some work to adjust with the
Indian allottees.
The forestry department, also, is
in trouble regarding the swamp land
grant, for if the states contention is
correct, the state will own over
100000 acres of swamp land in the
reserve.
Nor is this the only complication.
The United States has a system of
reservoirs to regulate the headwaters
of the Mississippi and it's tributaries,
and these reservoirs have overlooked
a large area of these same lands.
And further, the act of 1908 con-
tains that the Indians having allot-
ments in the reserve may release
them and select from other public
lands in lieu of those released.
Hence, should their present allot-
ments include swamp lands, the ex-
change, under the states contention,
would vest title in the state, and
thus reduce the forest reserve. 1t
must be noted in this connection,
however, that the state claims the
swamp lands whether patented or
not. n.
I'm view of these facts. some
time may elapse before a settled
policy can be had, though the de-
partment of the interior is now con-
sidering it.
These questions are not only
giving trouble to public officials,
but to the people living in the prox-
imitv to the sections affected, Cass
Lake, Walker and the surrounding
country, is awaiting decisive action.
mr.. Lindbergh is making his
examinations for the purpose of pro-
tecting the interests Of the settle
ments in that vicinity, as we'll as for
the protection of the interests of the
Indians" ...-.

ROY JACKSON PASSED TO
''GREAT BEYOND TODAY
Popular. 8-Year-0ld Son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. O. e. Jackson Victim Of
Appendicitis.

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. o E.
Jackson was saddened this forenoon
when Roy, their little 8-year-old son,
passed to the great beyond, after
having been ill less than week,
with appendicitis.
The little fellow was attacked
with appendicitis on Wednesday o1
last week. An operation was per-
formed on the boy, in the hope Of
relieving his sufferings, but the
surgeon found that the appendix
was broken, and there was no chance
for relief for the little sufferer; and
death ended the struggle this fore
noon.
Little Roy jackson was 7 years
old, and had he lived until the 18th
of April, he would have been 8 years
of age, having been born in Black
duck in 1901. Being Of a cheerful,
lovable disposition, Roy was beloved
by not only his parents but by his
associates and playmates at school,
where he was studious and we'll
behaved youth.
The untimely taking off of this
young life has cast a deep gloom
over the Jackson home, and Mrs.
Jackson has been well nigh pros
.trated with sorrow.
Arrangements have not yet been
completed for the funeral as Mr..
Jackson has telegraphed to several
relatives Of the family who are ex-
pected to come here for the purpose
of attending the last obsequies Of
Roy.

AL II. JESTER HAS SOME
VERY CLEVER SWORD FISH
Neghbors Claim These Fish Sawed TESTERS Summer Sup.
ply Of Ice from Lake Plantagnet-"Al" Got the Fish
from One Joseph A. WesselI.

The performance of some tame
fish which are the property of A. II
| Jester, who owns the famous Jester
Farm" out on Lake Plantagnet, are
the wonder of the good folks who
live around the lake, which is some
seven miles south Of Bemidji, as the
crow flies.
Two years ago, Mr.. Jester was
able to obtain from the State Game
and Fish Commission, through J.
A. VESSEL, a member of the commits
sion, two dozen sword fish,, which
VESSEL claimed had been imported
from Ireland, where he asserts they
thrive and grow to large dimensions,
on the north coast of the Emerald
Isle" VESSEL assured Jester that
these fish would be Of great material
service to him; but AL" rather
looked with distrust on the assur-
ances of Joseph, as he had occasion
to remember several April LIST occur
rences on the part of Joe that had
caused him woe.
However, Jester placed the fish
in Lake Plantagnet until this winter,
when his attention was called to
the fact that blocks of ice were
being sawed out in the middle Of
the lake, and knowing that no per-
son had spoken of cutting ice on
at that particular spot, Mr.. Jester
decided to watch and find out who
was helping themselves to the con-
gealed aqua pura which has made
Lake Plantagnet famous for its
medicinal propensities.
Mr.. Jester went to the point where
the saving had been going on, and
repeated his trip three times, before
his patience was rewarded.
The morning Of his third trip,
while it was not yet daylight, Jester
heard scraping and grinding, but
look as hard as he would. he could
not see living soul in sight.

ment of the bill covering the subject.
A duplicate of this bill is still
pending in the senate. MI. Ryan
claimed that as the state has ordered
him to scale certain timber in Bel

and then enforce collection from the
parties who now decline to pay for
