SN0WSHOES THAT, SAVED
CAPITAL FOR ST. PAUL
ON EXHIBITION HERE
Famous Exploit of Jolly joe
Rolette Recalled by Ancient
Racquettes

"JOily Joe" Roilette, one Of the
most romantic characters the north
west has produced, and how he saved
the capital of Minnesota to St. Paul
are recalled by an ancient pair Of
snoWshoes which have been brought
into prominence by Encouragement

The shoes, of generous proportions,
evidently designed to carry robust
man. are the very ones upon which
Jolly joe" then member of the
council made his historic getaway
with the bill providing for the remov-
al Of the capital of Minnesota from
st. Paul to st. Peter. When the time
came to vote on the proposition, ST..
Peter had safe majority pledged in
Its favor. But it did not have Rol-
lette, and Rollette had the original
bill safely in his possession, tracking
away into the northwest toward his
native wilds in Pembina. By the time
Joe and the bill we're finally located
it was too late for St. Peter to score
and St. Paul acknowledged it's debt
OF gratitude to the Pembina advcn-
turer to the ned of his days by ten
lering him the freedom of the city
whenever he hove in sight.
And tradition has it that "Jolly Joe"
took the freedom of the city literally
and made excellent use of it. In the
oden days when any undue commo-
ton was heard. the sanity citizens
were wont to remark: Its fire, or
Joe ROllette's in town." When Joe

swept into st. Paul with his fine doc
team in full cry, and with Joes lusty
lungs ringing for the call of the trail
there never was any question in the
minds Of anyone that Rollette was
among those present.
In those days Pembina was a part
of Minnesota, and Joe was first elect.
ed to serve his district in the "coun.
cil' in 1858. He was a. veteran mem.
Der in 1857, when the movement for
the transfer of the capital to St. Peter
came up. This romantic figure in
northwestern history was born at
Prairie due Chen on October 90, 1920,
and he died May 1851, at his home
in Belcourt, one mile north of the
village of Pembina, where his re-
mains now rest. His father was a
leader in the pioneer days, a fighter
and mighty man among men. Jolly
Joe, while he never accumulated
much worldly goods, did earn undying
fame by his numerous exploits, and a
fulllength portrait Of Rollette occu-
pies place of honor in the rooms of
the Minnesota Historical society at st.
Paul, where tablet tells how he ran
away with. the bill that saved the
capital. Even more characteristic of
of the old courier of the Pembina are
the ancient, worn snowshoes which
now occupy pedestal in Curator
Gilmores office. The "racquets" seem
to have partaken somewhat of the
rIkpe0 Oualitinc and thn freq and wild
character of their owner; they have

TO GET PLACE
CHAMPIONS OF THE NOMINEE
ARE CONFIDENT HE WILL
BE CONFIRMED.

WASHINGTON, Jan 29-Presi-
dent Wilson's nomination of Louis
D. Brndeis, of Boston, to fill the
vacancy on the supreme court bench
caused by the death of Justice
Lamar, continued an absorbing topic
of discussion at the capital today.
The nomination came as a distinct
surprise both in congressional and
official circles inasmuch as Mr.
Brandeis' name had not been men
toned in connection with the place.
Senators generally were unwilling
today to express themselves public
ly. Some said, however, that they
were opposed to the nomination
Champions of Mr. Brandeis, how
ever er,apparently were confident of
confirmation. Mr.. Brandeis himself
declined to make any comment tt e
confirmation will not be taken up
formally until Monday, when the
senate judiciary committee meets.

MUST GET LICENSE FOR
FISHING AND OYSTERING
Inspector Owens Will Now Be-

Local fishermen, oystermen, etc,
have been given ample time in which
to secure their licenses and those who
have not done 50 by February first
will be liable to arrest and prosecu-
ton" said Inspector Owens to News
reporter last night.
AS is well known the new law was
put into effect on January first, when
the local inspector took charge, but
he has been busy for the past month
getting everything in working order.
Although upwards of fifty licenses
have been issued, still there are equal
ly that number who have not secured
their licenses and who are engaged
in the fish and oyster business. The
inspector feels that he has given am
pie notice to all of them, and to avoid
trouble those who are not clothed with
a license should secure one before
Wednesday.
