The Grand Jury Report.
eve, the Grand Jury of the Coun-
ty of Beltrami, respectfully state to
the Court that we have completed
our duties and have made our re-
ports and indictments concerning
those bound over to await our ac-
ton.
Jail in Good Condition.
1--WE have examined into the con-
.dition of the county Jail and find the
same to be in good condition
throughout, and that there are none
therein imprisoned awaiting our ac-
ton whose case has not been con-
sidered.
Eve have also examined the court,
house building and find the same
to be in proper condition, and have
no recommendation to make for the
betterment of the same.
Name is Withheld.
eve have examined into the mat
ter of the State of Minnesota against
John Doe, whose true name is with
held because no indictment has been
returned against him. This matter
involves the alleged improper inf1u-
encing of a juror in the case of Zip
pie against the Canadian Northern
Railway company, civil action
tried in December, 1912. While we
have been unable to secure legal proof
that would justify us in returning
an Indictment, we make this report
because the matter is, in our opinion,
one Of deep public Importance, and
we deem it proper that the public
should understand that we have used
every effort within our power to dis
courage, by Indictment, any i'm
proper interference with the honest
Of Justice.
