According to statements made

part of any one of them to offer bills
bearing on the liquor situation in

given little thought to the matter,

tention of offering a measure bear.

ton of the Minnesotans is to keep
hands off, and let the problem work
itself out, preferably through the
courts.
Representative STEVENSON, a part
of whose district lies in the region
affected, said:
I would like to see this question

Another member of the delega.

Thirty Places Today Forced to Quit By
Agents Under Orders From Pussy
foot" Johnson
BEMIDJI DEALERS ALARMED
Expect Delayed Blow to Fall, But
Agent Brents Refuses to Say When
it Will Be.

All the saloons in Brainerd were
today closed by government agents
working under instructions from w.
E. (Pussyfoot) johnson.
Yesterday afternoon the saloons
of Walker were forced to quit bust
ness.
In Bemidji the blow has not fallen
but most of the saloonkeepers
breathe hard every time they hear
the door opened.
T. E. Brents, in charge of the
subagency here of the Indian bureau,
arrived in Bemidji on the night train
last night, but he has nothing to say
regarding the. proposed closing of
Bemidji.
The saloons in Brainerd were
closed by Deputy Special Agents
Quinn and Brannon.
There were 81 saloons in that city
and in no place was there any effort
to resist the action of men working
under authority from "Pussyfoot"
Each liquor dealer was rold that
he must have his stock shipped
out without delay and with that
understanding, no liquor was des;
troyed. The saloons had ex-
pected such action and the stock
in nearly every place was at low
ebb.
Quinn and Brannon made the
rounds and caused all the doors to
be locked. They began their work
shortly after eight o'clock this morn.
ing and the dealers were warned
that their goods must be packed so
far as possible, before dark tonight.
At meeting of the Brainerd city
council last night resolutions we're
passed appealing to President Taft
and Secretary Ballinger for relief
from the Indian bureau in wiping
out the saloons.
The Brainerd council also acted
favorably on an ordinance intended
to make bootlegging and other H.
legal sales of liquor impossible.
At Walker the saloons were
closed by wire. "Pussyfoot"
Johnson telegraphed Attorney
Daniel Delury asking him to notify
the saloon men to quit business
and lock their doors. Mr.. Delury
showed the liquor men the tele-
gram and they at once closed up
and began packing up. The sup
plies were today shipped back to
the breweries and distillers, and
Walker is dry for the first time in
existence. ..
With the closing of Walker and
Brainerd, the hopes of the Bemidii
dealers, which had begun to soar.
are dashed to earth again and there
is a general feeling that it now must
be only a question of a few hours
until Bemidji will be dry.
Several of the saloonkeepers here
have joined in an effort to force the
issue and to secure satisfaction in
court. A defense fund has been col
lected and the best of legal talent
employed. Not all of the liquor
dealers here are included in this
action, but majority of them are.
Frank Lane is one dealer who re-
fused to become involved. ~ "
Il didn't just like the proposition, !"
q said Mr.. Lane to the Pioneer today,
sand so didn't join them"
Mr.. Lanes stock of liquors has
become exhausted but he is doing
good business in the sale of soft
drinks. Should the closing order be

of unifying the Democratic party
