ripple, Williams and Cowan Cases
Set on Calendar and May Get
to Petit Jury. ~..
Alleged Slayer of Sam Marin Now
Held in County Jail-Ryberg
il Out on Bail.

Spring term of district court will
be opened by Judge Stanton next
Tuesday morning. There are thirty
eight cases set on the civil calendar
and to date there are seven cases on
the criminal although this number
will probably be increased by the &C.
ton of the grand jury. Sheriff
johnson returned yesterday from his
last trip into the country subpoena
ing jurors.
OF the criminal cases, the one
which will probably attract the most
attention. is that Of Johnson, who is
held in the county jail in connection
with the shooting of Sam Marin.
Johuson's case will be taken before
the grand jury and in case an indict-
ment is found, he will be tried at
this term of court.
The case Of H. A. Ryberg, former
marshal Of spooner. charged with the
killing Of John Harvey. will come
before the grand jury and probably
the court. Harvey is at present out
on bail. Ryberg shot Harvey in
Spooner during December. He was
brought to Bemidji. bound over and
released on bail.
Several grand larceny cases from
Bemidji will be brought to the at
tention of the jury. Fred Busick.
Steve Rogers, and Mike Pribo are
held in the county jail on this charge.
Barney Lynch. who recently was ar
rested on a charge of having picked
a pocket, will have his case attended.
Alex Sayers, the Indian who passed
bad $40 check recently, is being
held also.
Wilhelm ripple, John L. Williams.
J. o. Cowan and Thomas J. Williams
have cases against the Canadian
Northern railway company which are
said to have grown out of the fires of
1910. The ripple case was tried as
continued term in December and
resulted in q disagreement.
Although many Of the cases on the
calendars have been held over from
prior terms, it is not believed that
the present term will be short as
many of the cases will probably take
several days each to try. The north
east corner Of the court house base
ment has been remodeled and fitted
up as an extra Jury room.
