GREAT BALL BY
BEMIDJI TEAM
Locals Outplayed Ribbing in
Both Games. but First Contest
... Was Hooded"

baseball team returned home
yesterday afternoon from their
trip to Hibbing, and have since
been the modest recipients OF
congratulations on their playing
at Hibbing Sunday. ->.
A local "fan" whoaccompanied
the team is emphatic in his dec
laration that Bemidji should have
won both games, hutthat "hoodo"
of baseball, "luck," was against
them in the first game, although
the locals outbatted Hibbing and
made fewer errors, but the mis-
plays made by Bemidjl wereyery
costly and counted in the run
getting for the range town team.
Freeman, the authenticated
southpaw with the great rep
pitched both games for Hibbing.
The Bemidji boys 'got to him"
in good shape, in both contests,
securing seven nice safe ones off
him in the first contest, including
a clean home run by Farley
LeGore. However, Lee LeGore,
who oficiated on the slab for
Bemidji, was wild and could not
properly field bunts, which con
tributed in a large measure to
the loss of the game, although
the best the Hibbing sluggers
could do was to get three safe
drivers.
Hoover came to the front with
two hits in the first game,
Hibbing made six errors and
Bemidji five.
In the second game, Hibbine
got three scores in the first inn
ing, but the home plate was a
mile away thereafter. Farley
LeGore pitched the second game
After the first inning, he used
his "spit" ball with such telling
effect that he had the opposition
batters straining their backs in
vain endeavors to land on the
ball. He made monkeys out OF
the Hibbing bunch. Farley
played great ball, having seven
assists and one put. out, and he
made two two-baggers and two
singles offhis elongated opponent
Louis Roy really won the game
for Bemidji. In theninthinning,
with two on bases and two out,
Louie" came to bat and made
two awful lungs at the ball.
The next one that came through
suited him and he made a clean
hit over second, scoring both
runners and winning the game.
Score, Bemidi 5, Hibbing 3.
Summers played a wonderful
game at short, and greatly out
classed the Hibblng short stop.
Collins, in left field, made a
number of sensational catches.
The team was very weak at first
base, that position being played
by Merrill, of Staples.
There were at least 1000
Hibbing clans" at the game and
they we're generous in their
applause of the visiting team,
but when Bemidji forged to the
front IN the second game and
stayed there the "rooting" for
the home team was 'tsomething
fierce"
The winning of the second
game has put the stock of the
Bemidji team away above par,
and there is talk of an excursion
to this place from Hibbing for
two games to be played here

and here it has had it's head
quarters and most active sup
port. Since this movement
started the county has felt
the benefit of it in the way
of new settlers, the establish
ment of creameries and the
location here by the state of
experimental farms.
Bayfield, county is next to
the largest county in Wiscon-
rim, having the great area Of
1,497 square miles. 1t is al
most a small state in itself,
and III the way of natural re
sources it is probably unex,
celled by any other similar
plat of ground in the world
from the standpoint Of agri
cultural possibilities.
It borders Lske Superior on
the north, and partially on
the east, and has the famous
Chequamegon Bay on it's
eastern side, and along this
water front are already some
of the finest harbors to be
found, such as Port Wing,
Orienta, Cornucopia, Bayfield,
and Washburn. It is grid
ironed with railroads, with
mole coming.
With the exception of the
settlement of Bayfield,, which
dates back one-half a century
ago, and was an Indian post
in early times, bayfield, coun-
ty is comparatively a new
part of the state, SO far as
settlement is concerned.
While it has a number of
cities and towns, and many
farms along in development,
there are thousands of acres
yet awaiting the home seeker
who will find here unusual
opportunities for farming,
stock raising, dairying. and
especially fruit growing. In
deed, in the peninsula at the
head of which is the city of
Bayfield,, one of the best
known apple sections Of the
state is located.
OF the villages and towns
IN the county, the following
is a brief sketch:
CITY OF WASHBURN.
Washbnrn, the county seat
of Bayfield, county, located
on the Chequamegon Bay, a
magnificent harbor on Lake
Superior, has only recently
become full fedgee city. It
has upwards of five thousand
people, who have taken pride
in making it an unusually
handsome place. Many ele-
giant homes, with ample lawns,
line the streets that slope
gently to the water. The
stores are modern, largely,
and an extensive trade is en-
joyed by them. There are,
of course, well supported
churches, a Carnegie library,
several school buildings. of
which the high school is one
of the finest in the state and
a large and handsome court
house. LAUNDERING has been
the chief industry of Wash
burn, the great Hines plant
being there together with
other smaller concerns. On
the edge of the city is a dyna-
mite factory with an invest
ment of over a million dollars.
It is one of the largest con-
Germs of the kind in the coun-

ness OF WaShburn has grown
to large proportions.
A new factor in Washburn's
growth is the Commercial
club. an incorporated institu
| ton with a beautiful home of
it's own and composed of prac-
tically all of the progressive
citizens. This club is ''doing
things' as illustrated In the
prompt mann er in which it re-
Gently landed a creamery, a
brick factory and other good
things.
Tributary to this city the
farmers have been making
many improvements. The
soil is excellent, and, with
all kinds of crops already
mentioned as adapted to this
section, the beet of results
have been obtained. During
the past year or SO, and es-
pecially this spring, this part
of Bayfield, county has had an
! in fiux of settlers who are we'll
pleased with what they have
found. A number Of large
sheep and cattle ranches have
been opened, and there is
room for many more.

prising little city of Bayfield,
is situated. By many people
this place of over two thOus-
and inhabitants, is pronounce
ed the most beautiful city in
all of North Wisconsin. No
pen can adequately describe
it's attractiveness. Hundreds
of tourists visit it annually,
for here is not only magnifi-
cent scenery, the best of fish
ing, generous hospitality,
but immunity from heat and
hay fever.
Large lumber concerns still
are active at Bayfield,. An
enormous industry here is
that of fishing, the output ali

of tons, and giving employ
ment to all army of people.

Bayfield,, well called the

IRON RIVER
The last day of 1904, the
! big saw mill at Iron River
shut down, never to 60 again,
lit was believed, for the com
pany had exhausted it's tim
Der. Naturally there was a
'fattening out of business"
Stores closed, many families
moved away to follow the
lumber industry elsewhere,
and there was left to Iron
River only it's farming sup
port For the first time it's
people realized thatmOre pre-
paratiOn should have been
made for something to take
place of the industry that
had built up the town-that
is in the years past the rich
soil around should have been
devoten to farming. With
this in mind Iron River ''got
to work" last spring and a
creamery was built and peo-
pie began to clear land and
get down to farming.
In the summer a windfall
came to the village. The
Edward Hines lumber com
pany, one of the greatest of
! it's kind in existence, bought
the old mill and for three
years will use it to cut a
great body of timber lying to
the south of Iron River. This
movement sent an electrical
business current through
Iron River, awakening the
place to new life.
But this revival of a great
! lumber business means only
a few years of it and then the
town must fall back upon
farming. This lesson is a
valuable one to all parts Of
the north Wisconsin territory
and Iron River will push it's
agricultural development
faster than ever.
This little city of 800 peo-
pie, in the western central
part of Bayfield, county was
chosen the headquarters OF
the North Wisconsin Farm
er's Association. on account
of it's being located midway
across the four counties, as
we'll as for the great interest
it's people are taking in the
development of farming. The
town has a fine and slightly
location, is up-to-date with
stores, residences and excel
lent schools.
On the banks Of the Iron
river, that winds through the
town, are the electric light
and water works, a frst-class
system. Power from the
Brule river in great force will
soon reach the town, making
it a splendid site for factories
Of various kinds.
Farming. is we'll advanced
around Iron River, and on all
sides are to be found evidence
of wheat has been done in
this section in the way Of

IT IS SAID that proceedings

No one made any objection to the
action at the time it was done
Of course the action of the board
was illegal. We know that.

A RUMOR is af1oat that a petit
ton will be made to the Circuit
Judge for calling a grand jury
for Bayfield, county: Whether
this is true CT not is hard to
state, True it is that til ere will
be some "high Jumping" so to
speak. by a large number of CT
tizens in the county, if grand
jury should be called. Perhaps
one phase Of the work which
would be apportioned to the
grand jury would be to look into
the graft discussion which is so
freely being discussed. This
will be thoroughly airedin court.
A gen tleman stated to a TIMES
man that shoull a grand jury lie
called he would be willing to
give all necessary information
regarding the practice of selling
goods to the county or city by
business men Whe are mem bers
of the county or city boards.
The practice has been general
for several years. Mem hers of
the county board are in the ha-
bit of allowing their own bills &
menu ers of the city council and
school baards are in the habit OF
doing the same. Practically
speaking there is no wrong, but
legally it is a grave offense and
all who are GU lily can be brought
to account. We take no stock in
this talk of calling a jury.
