LIQUOR CASES
TO Be HEARD
Grand Jury Which Convenes at Hib.
bling Will Consider Large
~ Number.

Evidence of nature that is ex-
pected to result in the. indictment of
several Mesaba range saloon men and
the proprietors of a large number of
unlicensed drinking places as we'll.
will be submitted to the grand jury
of the Hibbing> term of the district
court which convenes in that city on
February 3.
Elmer, Swanson and Elmer Arho, Of
Chisholm are bound over on charges of
selling liquor to minors. The chief
witness for the state will be Charles
Gilchrist. L. N. Nelson is bound over
on a charge Of selling whiskey to
Jennie McKelvin, an Indian woman,
living in the Namekan lake country,
while there are more than the usual
number Of complaints against pro-
prietors of unlicensed drinking places
to be considered.
Assistant County Attorney Boyle
expects the grand jury will be called
upon to consider more matters than
usual at a range term of the district
court. There is not murder case on
the docket so far, the first time in
the past two years or more and court
officers are hoping that one grand jury
NAV be called which will not have a
murder case to consider. A singular
coincidence has been that always for
the last few years, directly after the
grand jury adjourned there has been a
killing somewhere on the range
So regularly has this occurred that it
has come to be generally remarked
by court officers.

HOP CROP WILL Be
LIGHT, LACHNUND

Louis Lachmund, the well-known Sa-
lem hop man, is in his office today aft
er trip over the hop-grOwing district.
He says that the 1914 hop crop win
be from 20 to 25 per cent, or about
10000 bales, lighter than last year s
crop. This decrease is attributed to
the large number of missing hills as
the result of poor wintering. Tne new
yards are particularly promising, says
Mr.. Laehmund and it is only in the
old yards that the shortage will be
noted.
The hop market is firm and 1918
hops are being contracted at 1914
cents per pound, while the prevailing
price offered for 1913 hops is 10 cents,
and many contracts are being made at
this price. OF the 1913 crop of $1,000
bales but 5000 bales remain unsold.
"Where the hops look well, they
look particularly good, and where they
look bad they LOOK particularly bad,
is the way the hop situation may be
summed up at present., said Mr.. Lach-
mund in conclusion.
