Anderson was notified of his ar
rest Friday night, following a search
of his place by Frank Ripple, chief
of police, Special Officer Brandt of
the Indian service and Deputy Special
Officer A. j. Carson, a pint of whisky
being found. Other evidence found
indicated that liquor was being ille-
gally sold. The Anderson place, and
three others, were searched on war
rants sworn out by William McCuaig,
mayor.
Chief Ripple Immediately seized
the bar fixtures and they will remain
in his care until the case has been
decided in the courts, and if Ander-
son is found guilty the property will
be confiscated and the place ordered
closed for period of one year. In
this event the fixtures, valued at $2,-=
900, will be auctioned, one-third go
ing to the state school fund and the
other half to the informers. .
Hans Hagen, in charge of the bar
when the place was searched, al
though Anderson claims he is not his
employe, was declared guilty of sell
ing liquor unlawfully in municipal
court Saturday and sentenced to a
fine of $25 or 20 days in Jail. The
case was appealed to the district
court.
Anderson was recently bound over
to the Federal grand jury on the
charge of introducing liquor into In
dian territory in a milk can, his case
to be considered at the fall term.

INDIANS WANT MILLION
DOLLAR FUND DIVIDED:
DECLARE THEY'RE BROKE

Several hundred Chippewa Indians
of the Leech Lake reservation We're
in attendance at the general council
held at the agency at Walker to con-
fer with Henry S. Traylor, special
agent of the government, as to needs
of the tribe. The principal subject
discussed was the tribal funds which
now amount to $1,181,000 which the
Indians would like to see distributed
under the supervision of the Indian
department. A request was also
made for an earlier payment of the
per capita apportionment, for the
reason that the Indians throughout
the reservation are in destitute con-
dition on account of the failure Of
their main articles of subsistence,
blueberries and wild rice.

Thrilling Play of Circus to Be Shown

the feature film, "The Flying Twins, -
will be thrown on the screen of the
Rex theater this evening: Madeline
and Marion Fairbanks, sensational
athletes as we'll as talented motion
picture players, are the stars Of this
production, and a real three-ring cir
Gus is used as the setting for the main
scenes, but even without this at
traction the film would be marvel
The picture shows how the twins ran
away to join a circus; how they be-
came daring trapeze performers and
how they are returned to the sorrow
ing parents. It is a picture replete
with stirring human interest. The
film will be shown tonight only.

Paris. Aug 23.-Everybody III
France knows it, so why try to keep
it a secret: France is not at all
satisfied with what England has done
and is doing in this war, and Eng
lishmen in France, soldiers as we'll
as sojourners, admit France is right
And now come stories by private
conveyance from Great Britain that
London is being fortified with a cou-
pie of rows of defenses running en-
tirely around the city; that the Eng
lish are saying lone never can tell
what will happen;" that they admit
lack of ammunition and will continue
to lack it even under the best pos
sible conditions for months to come
and if the Germans make dash for
Calais ana other channel ports with
forces such as she is using around
Warsaw, there will be no stopping
them at present.
What do all these stories mean?
the French are asking. What is the
matter with England after more
than year of war? Why can't she,
with all her steel mills and kindred
works, turn out much more than suf
ficient ammunition, enough, in fact,
to supply her allies?
"Strikes have hampered u.s." Eng
lishmen in France given as an ex-
cuse for many of these questions.

"Why tolerate strikes?" the French
ask impatiently, "when the life of
England hangs in the balance with
our own and that of several other
countries perhaps as well?"
Now with fall almost at hand, Eng
land is still holding, with great eff
fort at that, her little 80 miles OF
front. The .Frenc ch hold 500 miles.
In the IL month of trench fighting
this proposition has not changed and
many has been the time when French
artillery has been called upon to sup
port the British even along their
short front.

of foreign affairs, a historian and un-
usually calm thinker, has said:

For several years the progress and
accomplishments of Beltrami county

may seem strange, but nevertheless it
is true, that this county can now
boast of twenty-five such organiza-
tions, every one of them formed for
the purpose of lettering community
conditions and to aid and assist de-
velopment.
The value of farmers clubs to any
community is realized more fully to-
day than ever before and as a conse-
quence they are being formed in
every section, not one county in Min
nesota being without several. But
in glancing at the official reports it
is discovered that Beltrami county.
the most northern of all the counties,
leads the state in numbers of Farm
ers' clubs.
The Mississippi Club.
During the past several weeks two
new club have been organized in Bel
trami, one in the northern part of
the county and one in the town of
Grant Valley. The latter will be
known as the Mississippi Rural
Farmers club and it was formed at
the farm of John Suckert.
This club has membership roll of
so and fifteen families joined at the
| initial meeting, Bueford M. Gile,
the Bemidji agriculturist, assisting
in the organization. Ed Laudtka
was elected president and Henry Will
son was named secretary-treasurer
Families who joined as charter men,
bers follow:
Mr.. and Mrs. George Miller and
family, Mr.. and Mrs. John Smith and
family, Mr.. and Mrs.. E. Willet and

An Enterprising Organization.
With Charles Olson as president
and Olof Anvid as secretary, the
Summit Farmers club is another or
ganization which is fast forging to
the front as a community developer.
It's members are progressive and are
numbered among the county's most
progressive farmers. Sixteen fam
lilies are enrolled Meetings are held
en- the first Sunday of each month.
