This is what the Minnesota Historical Society says:
The Society’s library has microfilm copies of statewide death registers for 1899 and a death record card file for 1900 through 1907. The cards are transcripts of death certificates; they are not complete, nor are they official documents.
The index to death cards for 1904 to 1907 can be found in the online Death Certificate Index.
To find an official death certificate dated before 1908, you may need to contact the individual county in which the death occurred. Minnesota did not have an official statewide death records system until 1908. Until then, each county maintained its own death registry.
Death certificates/registers are usually under the care of the county vital statistics officer. The vital statistics officer is frequently the county recorder, but records may be found in other county offices. These early records may not contain as much detail as later ones.

~ it does not look like they have an easy way to search via micro film unless the date an place of death are known.
I will take a look later this week and see if I can make any headway.
