Il INDICI MENTS.
WERE RETURNED
DOZEN OR MORE INDICTMENTS
WERE REPORTED RETURNED
TODAY BY FEDERAL GRAND
JuRY-JIM JAM JEMs THOUGHT
TO BE AMONG THE NUMBER.

A dozen or more indictments were
reported returned by the federal grand
jury at n noon hour today. The
FEDERAL attorneys were not permitted
to make any disclosures until the APP
prenension of the persons against
whom the indictments are made. Al.
1t was believed however, from COM
ment heard in the corridors of the
federal building, that one of the in
dlctments pertains to the publishers
of The Jim Jam Jems magazine puh-
lished at Bismarck, though this rumor
is not confirmed Rumor also has it
that there was some disagreement over
this matter even after the Indictment
was returned and that some of the
jurors wanted to reconsider the ques-
ton. Just how correct this report is
cannot be verified.
1t is believed all the Indictments
that are said to have been returned
will be made public not later than
Monday If not late this afternoon. This
leaves about twenty-five cases stillsm
the hands of the grand jury for con-
sheraton. ..s ...
The federal building is a busy place
this week as all the corridors and of
fees are ,thronged with witnesses who
have been summoned from various
parts of this section. The Indictment
of the Jim Jam Jems periodical, 1t is
said, will not effect its. publication be-
tween now and the. trial of it's pub
fishers, should they be brought to
trial. u

SPECULATION ARISES OVER DIS.
TRI5UTloN or FEDERAL OF.
FIcEs IN NORTH DAKOTA
AMONG DEMOCRATIC LEADERS
SEVERAL FOR EACH PLACE.

Now. hat the election is over and
Gov. Woodrow Wilson has been Sc
iected for the presidency a great deal
of speculation has arisen in this city
owe the distribution of the federal Of
fees of North Dakota. The democrat
ic party has been out of power for
sixteen years and while for the last
six years there has been a state dem
ocratic administration, there will be a
lot of hungry democrats gathered un-
der the dropping branches when Pres
ident-elect Wilson shakes the plum
tree.
Aside from the speculations over the
political future of Governor Burke,
there are a number of important po-
sitions in the state which will suit the
democratic stars of lesser magnitude.
The off1cials of the democratic state
committee, the national committee
man, the three congressional nominees
and the defeated gubernatorial nom
fnee, aside from the lesser lights Will
all be In line.
Street gossip has it that State
Chairman Macarthur and Warden
Hellstrom will both be applicants for
United States marshal County Chair
man Wilkinson and State Secretary
Mclean are among those mentioned
for postmaster, though it is said the
appointment Of Mr.. Wilkinson TO such
a post would not be agreeable to
the majority of the members OF the
Macarthur end of the democratic ma
chine.
Already the three who appear to be
leading for the United States attor-
1ey are former Mayor Lovelf and M.
"a. Hildreth of Fargo and George p.
Jones of La Moure county, defeated
by Mr.. Hellstrom for the g~ubernator-
ial nomination In the June primaries.
Both Mayor Halvorson and M, j.
Minckler, the two defeate;@s nominees
for congress in the Seccss@and Third
districts are reported to be on the
slate of recommendations for the
Minot and Devils Lake landofices,
respectively, with National Commit
teman Brugger for the Williston land
Office.
The outcome of the division OF the
spells lis going to be interesting to all
Fargoans and to all republicans OF the
state.

MILLER REFDTES
MAYORS INFERENCE
JUDGE MILLER DECLARED MAY
OR NEVER ASKED TO SEE AFFI.
pAViTs IN HIS OFFICE YES
TERDAY AND INFERENCE CON:
vEYED WRONG IMPRESSION.

Judge Fl. f. Miller of the police
court this morning declared that the
inference in the mayors verbal COM
munication to the city council last
night that the latter had failed In
his endeavor to see certain ~aff1davits
hled with the police magistrate in
connection with the alleged charges
or police corruption, was entirely
without foundation.
The police magistrate said he does
not make a practice Of rushing into
Print or fighting his battles In the
newspapers n would make no furth-
er comment on the matter except that
Mayor Sweet had never applied to
him to see the affidavits filed with him
which the mayor said to the city
councl last night he had been I'M
able to get at or see.
Last night Mayor Sweet told the
council these affidavitS had been in
the police magistrates office, but that
they We're not there now. He further
stated he had been unable to see
them or get them. Judge Miller said the
mayor never applied to him for these
or to see them.
Everything in the office of the po-
lice magistrate, Judge Miller said, is
open to inspection of the public at any
time. he said had the mayor applied
TO him for the affidavits in question
they would most certainly have been
handed to him. It is not supposed to
be the magistrates business to take
these matters to people outside the
court to settle but to decide cases
brought before him. Any record in the
magistrates Office is open to the in
spection of everybody and particularly
the ofticialS of the city.
