For
District Court—The Result of Investiga
tions Started at Larimore and Grafton—
He is Arraigned in Court and Released
on Bail in the Sum of $2,100.
The rumors current the last few days
that there was seriouB trouble in store
for Andrew Lindelie, agent for the North
Dakota State Enforcement league, were
vertified last Thursday afternoon, when
the grand jury of the district court at
Grand Forks returned six indictments
against him.
Two indictments are for perjury, it
having been charged that he testified
falsely before the grand jury in connec
tion with the alleged acceptance of $100
from F. J. O'Leary, who in 1898 was
accused of blind pigging at Larimore.
The money, it is charged, was paid in
Angust of that year, bnt Lindelie swore
he never received it. The second indict
ment for perjury has to do with the al
leged returning of the 100 to O'Leary
bnt recently, which Lindelie also denied
having done, when questioned before the
jury.
The third indictment is for extortion
in connection with the same case, and
the fourth for compounding the crime of
selling intoxicants contrary to law, this
in connection with the case of a Grafton
pigger named Olson, from whom, throngh
a second person, he is accnsed of having
received $25.
The charge in the fifth indictment is
that Lindelie attempted to dissuade F.
J. O'Leary from appearing before the
grand jury as a witnee», ana the sixth is
for destroying evidence in the form of a
letter alleged to have been written to
O'Leary.
The accusations of O'Leary are in
sabetance that he paid Mr. Lindelie $100
for the privilege of conducting a pig a£
Larimore, notwithstanding .which the
place was soon afterwards closed that
the letter referred to was written by
XandeUe to O'Leary some two years ago,
advising tbe latter to leave Larimore, as
the people there were determined that
be .should he, prosecuted. This letter,
ding to OTJeary'e statements, was
back to Lindelie on the 10th
ioat, when thelatter returned to O'Leary
the $100 paid two years ago.

MATH ISEN & SPECKflANN.
Friday two o'clock Lindelie was
arraigned in court, and entered a plea of
not guilty. The cases were set for trial
Friday morning, but in view of the fact
that Messrs. Bossard & Bossard, at
torneys for Mr. Lindelie, have had no
opportunity to look into the matter
whatever the court at the conclusion of
other business dismissed the jury until
next Tuesday morning. Ac that time it
is thought that the defendent will be
ready for trial and the cases will be taken
up.
Mr. Lindelie was released on bail
amounting on the six indictments to $2,
100, until the date of trial.
Regarding the charges against him.
Mr. Lindelie declined positively to make
any statement. He stated, however,
that while personally perfectly willing
to talk freely npon the matter, upon the
advise of his legal representatives he
would refrain from talking upon the
matter until the trial when he would
pro! a')ly have something to sBy.
A FINE ENTERTAINMENT.

THAT TWO PER CENT.
^V-'
Tax Titles
I
of 1899 Affected
By
Leaving Out of Word.
ANOTHER CODE BLUNDER.
The Omission of the Two Per Cent. Clause
in the New Code Makes Buyers of Tax
Titles Quite Anxious Over Their Recent
Investments as They Will Receive Only
the Five Per Cent. Penalty and Wo Two
Per Cent. Per Month Interest.
Purchasers of '99 tax titles at the re
cent delinquent tax sale in this and other
counties over the stale do not seem
to have made such speculations as they
expected at the time. Instead of getting
five per cent penalty and two p»r cent
per month interest, the indications are
that they may receive only the five per
cent penalty, Naturally this would not
be considered much of a bonanza by the
purchaser, and un.ess there is some flaw
in the law by which interest can be se
cured those who bid in delinquent taxes
will find themselves if any tbing the loser.
The '99 Session Laws, page 206, refer
ring to the redemption of tne tax certifi
cates, reads: "The amount paid by the
purchaser at the time of sale, with the
penalty of five per cent, together with all
subsequent taxes penalties and interest
paid by him up tothedate of redempt-on,
and interest at the rate of two per cent
per month
In the North Dakota codes, which were
proclamated by the governor, in Section
1267, the section quoted above is copied,
but the words, "and interest at therateof
two per cent per month," were left out.
'J'his leaves the tBX holder holding the
bag. The cream of the tax deal is skim
med off by the omission of the two per
cent per month interest. If the code is
the law of the state it will govern the
matter of redemption of all '99 tax sales.
Of course the omission in the code
will not affect the tax sales of other years
than '99, and the error can be amended
by the next legislature. But if it is an
error there is little consolation in the fact
for those that invested at the '99 sale of
delinquent taxes on farm and city property
There i6 still one way in which seme of
the larger investors throughout the state
figure they can see their way clear of this
clerical blunder of the new codes and
that is by taking a stated parcel of the
land sold for taxes, where much of the
taxes were brought for so many acres
10
the quarter section. That would not,
however, affect taxes on city lots pur
chased at ihe sale.
AUGUST FLOWER.
"It is a surprising fact," says Prof,
Houton, "that in my travels in all parts
of tbe world, for the last ten years, I
have met more people having used
Green's August Flower than any other
remedy, for dyspepsia, deranged liver and
stomach, and for constipation. I find
for tourists and salesman, or for persons
filling office positions, where headaches
and general bad feelings from irregnlar
habits exist, that. Green's Angust Flower
is a grand remedy. It does not injure
tbe system by frequent use, and is ex
cellent for sour stomachs and indiges.
