BARNES
JUDGE APPOINTS
NEW OFFICERS
Name Men to Take the Place of
Those Removed by the Court.
Election Tangled is Settled.

judge G. N. Risjord has appoint
ed B. N. Davis town clerk of the town
of Barnes while G. Johnson and Will
liam j. Dahvers have been named as
members of the town board
These men will take the place of
John j. Kennedy, former town clerk,
and Frank L. Moore and d. o. Hall
members of the former town board
who were removed from Office by the
Judge.
The controversy which resulted in
the Court in removing the former
town officials and appointing men to
fill their places was the result of a
town election in which L. d. Pease
defeated George S. Barnes for chair
manship of the town of Barnes. Al
though Pease was elected according
to the election returns, yet Barnes
claimed fraud and refused to give
up the place and continue TO hole
town meetings He was supported
by the town clerk and members of
the Board of Supervisors and an
action was brought to have these
officials removed.
The officers were removed by the
court and their successors appoint
ed This is expected to clear up
matters in the town of Barnes.
Since the election squabble last
spring little business has been tran
sacted In the town of Barnes.

William Fuhrmann, of this city,
is at the General hospital in Ash
land, where he is suffering with
paralysis which resulted from fall
he sustained on Thursday afternoon
of last week. Mr.. Fuhrmann was
out at the farm of his son-in-law
Orrin Dodge, in the northern part
of the town of Hughes, where ne
had been cutting some wood for his
own use during the coming fall and
winter, and Thursday afternoon he
helped his son-in-law put on a load
of hay in the field and climbed on
the load to ride to the hay shed,
taking a position back of the driver
As the load passed over rough
ground the swaying motion caused
Mr.. Fuhrmann to slide off the load
backwards. He struck on his head
and shoulders. Mr.. Dodge heard
him holier es he wasfalling, and
Immediately stopped the team and
picked up the injured man and
brought him to the house, when he
called DR.. Johnson from this city,
The doctor found that Mr.. Fuhr-
mann was paralyzed from the region
of the chest downward, and that he
either had suffered a fracture Of the
base of the brain or the upper spinal
column.
