Today in Court.

The time of the court for the
better part CT this forenoon was
occupied in considering applications
for citizenship papers; and owing to
the strict regulations that are now
in vogue relative to examining appli-
cants, the work was necessarily tedi-
Gus and took much more time than
was formerly taken in the granting
of papers.
R. K. Doe of St. Paul, a special
attorney for the government, was
present and assisted in the examina-
ton of the petitioners, who were
given very searching questioning.
Sixteen petitioners prese n e d
themselves and were questioned by
Judge McClenahan, fifteen being
accepted and one rejected, the rejec-
ton being for the reason that one of
the witnesses for the applicant was
not a citizen of the United States.
The petit jury was excused until
1880 this afternoon, when the reg ular

answer, being excused, and two
others were also excused. F. j.
Dunwoody was selected as foreman
! of the jury, and after being charged
z by the judge, they retired to deliber.
ate, Judge McClenahan not filling
the vacancies caused by excuses.
The jury reported that they had
found an Indictment, before the
afternoon adjournment, but were
requested by the judge to wait until
this morning before making a report
on the same.
Relative to the work of the grand
jury, County Attorney McKusick
stated that the jury had several
matters to consider, but that he was
of the opinion that their deliber-

The BEMIDJI BAND WILL
Give ANOTHER CONCERT
Director Harry Masten Has Splendid
Program Arranged for Friday
Nights Concert.

The regular monthly concert will
be given by the Bemidji band Fri.
day evening of this week, at the
Armory, and much interest is. being
taken in the event, because of the
fact that Professor Harry Masten,
director of the band, announces
that he will have a very attractive
progam, which will be even better
than the previous indoor concerts
given this winter by the band.
It is the intention Of Director
Masten to cut the band numbers,
especially solos. and to give a more
varied program, in which local
talent, other than members of the
band, will participate.
The Bemidji male quartette,
Messrs. Rood, Barker, Nelson and
French. will render selections, and
Mr.. Rood will sing solo, and
others who are not yet announced
will take part.
The Bemidji orchestra will give a
dance at the close OF the concert,
the music to be furnished by the
orchestra.
Bemidji is proud of its band and
orchestra, there is no doubt about
the loyalty of local citizens in that
respect. But the best exemplifca-
ton of this loyalty can be shown by
patronizing the concerts given by
the band. Prof. Harry Masten has
worked wonders with the band and
orchestra, and he deserves and
should get all financial aid possible.
Show your loyalty to the band in
the best possible manner, by attend
ing the concert Friday night; and
induce all your friends to buy tickets
and go;-that's loyalty of the right
kind.

4 An important matter which will

ing of several cases which involve
the constitutionality of the state fire
warden law of 1909.
:. Judges, McClenahan, Wright and
Stanton each have cases in which
the constitutionality of several sec.
tons of that law is questioned. and
the judges decided to sit in banc
to hear the caaes finally presented
before the entire judiciary of the
district. aa~=
There are two cases from Crow
Wing county, in which the N. p.
Railway is the defendant, involving
the patrol section of the fire war

tried in municipal court and the
company found guilty, and are now
in district court .on appeal. c. A.

ILLINOIS FARMER BUYS
BELTRAMI COUNTY LAND
!. v. Farber Of winnebago County,
III, Will Start Chicken and
Dairy Farm.

Northern Minnesota agricultural
lands are exchanging hands even in
these days of low temperature
weather, which fact has been indi-
Gated this week by sales made by
w. r. Mackenzie of lands in the
western part of Beltrami county.
John B. Farber, who lives at
Wlnnebago county, Illinois, was in
the city the first of the week and
closed deal with Mr.. Mackenzie
for the purchase of 40 acres of farm
land which is embraced in the hold
ings of the Northern Mime sofa
Dairy Farm Land company, in Lib
Eerty township.
Mr.. Farber also purchased the
REIMBURSEMENT of 40 acres, which
adjoined the land he purchased from
the Farm Land company, and he
now possesses 80 acres of as pro-
ductive soil as there is in Minnesota.
Mr.. Farber states that he will
move from Illinois to this section
with his family in about thirty days,

towards cementing together the
entire northern part of the state for
the interests of the entire northern
half of Minnesota. The meeting
was remarkable for the character and
standing of the delegates in their
various communities, and they made
up body of men of which any state
in the Union might be proud.
1t was remarkable for the abso-
lutte harmony which prevail d
throughout the entire meeting.
All personal interests and sec.
tional diff. rences were buried and
no mention or indication in any way
of politics was seen.
The citizens of Bemidji did every
thing possible for the comfort and
entertainment of their guests and to
the great credit of its citizens no
mention of local interests was made
in the cow ntlon.
Mayor Haven of Duluth had the
honor of proposing Crookston as the
next place of meeting, and the Red
River valley delegation showed the
heartiest appreciation.
I believe this meeting marks the
beginning of a new era in the
development 10 every way of the
interests of the northern half of the
state"
