Received Last Summer

his left knee, Wilfred Petrie, of this

Petrie had been paid 1910 iby the
company and had signed a receipt
and release of all claims against the
it by reason of the injury. He
claimed at the trial though, that he
had accepted this amount only as
partial compensation, that he is UNI
able to read and that he never in
tended or agreed to accept the $21O

Several Bemidji surgeons were wit
nesses, some of whom testified, that
in their opinion, Petrie's claim Of

ter McKusick was the attorney for
Petrie and the Crookston company
was represented by George Simpson,
former attorney general, and Daniel

JUDGES APPOINI
d. TCn REF: Rec R
0. I. Dent Civil Engineer, Named to
Have Charge Of Construction Work
in This District Begins Duties
,ooo, 900 TO BE SPENT
Jurists Wish to Pursue Every Pos
sible Method to Insure Wise and
Economical Expenditure Of Sum

@. L. Dent of Carlton, has been
appointed by Judge G, w. Stanton as
referee and supervising engineer of
judicial bitches in Beltrami county,
and other counties in this judicial
district. He will begin his duties
at once and will maintain headquart-
ers in this city.
4 The engineers duties will be to in
spect and to have general supervisory
charge of all ditch construction, to
examine and audit all bills for labor
an other expenses and to report to
the court in detail all obtainable in
formation with reference to every
judicial ditch projected or under con-
struction, and especially with refer
ence to the manner Of fulfillment of
contracts in both ditch and road con-
struction.
Need General Director
The ditch projects in this judicial
district are of such magnitude and
involve the expenditure of such large
sums of money that the district
Judges deem it imperative to provide
some authoritative and responsible
general director and supervisor of
the work, so that through his efforts,
the judges may be informed as fully
and reliably as possible with refer
ence to the work performed and the
manner in which the funds appro-
priated for that purpose are expend-
ed.
100000 Expenditure
bitches now petitioned for, to-
gether with those already established
and now in process of construction,
in Beltrami, Koochiching, Clearwater
and Marshall counties will neces-
state the expenditure of approxima-
tely 100000 in the ensuing three
years.
To adopt and pursue every possible
method to insure the wisest and
most economical expenditure of this
vast sum is plainly, a mandatory
public duty. The drainage law au-
thorizes the appointment by the dis
,trict judges of a referee for the pllr-
lposes herein Indicated The demand
for such appointment could surely
never he more urgent than under the
existing conditions in this judicial
district.
Of Great Importance
Engineer Dent is assuming work

responsibility and affording great
opportunities for valuable public ser.
vice. He is highly recommended
and has been selected from among
