Will PROVIDE FOR REFUND
Bill introduced by Representative
Will Give Council Power to Return
Unearned License Money. -
WILL AMOUNT TO ABOUT $4,000

Although the councils of several
places within the territory of the
1855 Indian treaty, in which the sa-
looms have been closed by orders of
the government, have refunded un-
earned license money, such action has
not been taken in Bemidji, P. J. Rus
sell, city attorney, ruling that under
the existing law to do so would be
unlawful. :
But, as suggested by Attorney Rus
sell, bill has now been introduced
in the house of representatives which,
if passed, will permit the Bemidji
council to refund about $4,000.
Representative Boyd of Crookston
is the author of the bill which will
make the refund possible. The law
will amend section two of paragraph
$3.50, of the 1913 statutes, which
reads the money may be returned
when a license has been annulled,
s'By the sale of liquor becoming un-
lawful in the place for which the
license is granted" to include, cor by
reason of the operation of any In
dian treaty."
The same bill will be introduced,
1t is understood, in the senate by

Wolf STORIES NOT TRUE
Farmers in Vicinity Of Bemidji Say
Animals Are Not Plentiful and
No Danger Exists.
HUNTERS FAIL IN SEARCHES


Many residents of Bemidji and the
surrounding country have voiced dis
satisfaction over stories of the re-
ported foreclosures of wolves in Bel
trami and adjoining counties, and
feel that the community has been
unjustly advertised; in this connec-
ton. -.1
Reports of people being attacked
and the unsafeness of travelling in
the woods after dark and similar
stories have been fcirculated broad
cast, and the fact that they are with
out foundation is annoying.
Trappers who have each winter
made a good income at their bust
ness, and who this winter found
trapping to be Improbable on &C
count. of the poor market, have been
trying their luck atgthe wolves, trust
ing that the bounty would aid them
in making up the deficiency to some
extent, have found the wolves very
scarce, and with the exception of a
very few which they have captured
after a considerable hunt, only one
or two have been sighted.
Homesteaders and farmers for sew
eral miles in each direction from Be
midi here, and mot
one has been known to complain of
any danger from the wolves. Very
few of them are able to relate of hav-
ing seen one for over a year.

while taking dinner with his best
girl will now be enabled to order
the "Anchovies" and eau gratin"

course is etiquette and the pupils

Denver, Jan. 29.-Govefnor George
A. Carlson, Colorado's new executive,
has never carried watch. His
friends do not expect the mere fact
that he has become governor of his
state will cause Carlson to purchase
a time-piece as they say his idea is
that time is measured by work &C
cOmplished and not by mere hours
and minutes. Because of Governor
Carlson's lack of a watch, one of the
first things his secretary did after
the new executive took office was to
purchase a clock which is to be put
in convenient place so that it may
at least be of interest to visitors who
threaten to take up too much time.

factor, not only in the health of the
