Yesterday afternoons business
session of the association was one
of the most successful meetings of
the organization ever held.
The sheriffs assembled in the
court room at the court house,
where the meeting was called to
order at o'clock.
Marshall A. Spooner, of this city,
judge of the Fifteenth Judicial
district, welcomed the sheriffs to
this city, on behalf of the residents
of Bemidji.
The judge stated that he was
more than pleased, he was delighted,
to see so large an attendance of the
members of the association, who
had evidently come for the double
purpose of getting together for
mutual benefit and also for partak-
ing of hospitality of the city and
enjoying an outing tor a couple of
days.,
The judge complimented the
sheriffs on the fact that Minnesota
had within her borders a set of
sheriffs that were noted throughout
the western and northwestern states
as being very efficient and capable
officials.
To make a good sheriff, a man
should be possessed of not only
fearless courage and determination
he must also be a diplomat, to a

chairs, cooking utensils, etc.,
arranged and was preparing dinner,
the wind from the lake waiting a
pleasant smell of savory viands, that
a feast was in store. -
J. E. Lundgren, the Alexandria
big one who is secretary, was desig-
mated as custodian of the commits
sary department, and clad in a
bunch of good ~humor and prodig-
ious apron, dealt out the hospitality
which had been bottled for the
occasion, and which was literally
partaken of. =.- -
There was much informal "conver-
sation water" and the result was a
pleasant mingling of tongues like
unto the Tower of Babel of Holy
Writ" ~~. -.
The dinner was one of the most
elaborate. dinners ever served and
Sheriff Bailey had spared no pains
to make it one of the very best.
The excursion today will close the
convention which has been the most
successful gathering in the history
of the association. .--s ".s.sz.s .
Sheriff Dreger, president of the
State Sheriffs' association says of the

great extent, exercising the greatest
discretion in the performance of his
duties.
That Minnesota possessed men
who possessed all of these qualifca-
tions had been amply demonstrated
through recent occurrences through
out one section of the northern part
of the state, where certain sheriffs
had given ample evidence of deter
mination in putting down lawless-
ness.
In concluding, Judge Spooner
gave the visiting sheriffs a most
hearty welcome to the city; assured
them that the community was theirs
during their stay here, and hoped
they would enjoy their visit to the
fullest.
In responding to the address of
welcome Sheriff Dreger of Minne-
apo]is, president of the association,
said:
The members of the Minnesota
Sheriffs' association are in Bemidji,
in response to a call for the semi
annual meeting of the association
and outing.
I'VE appreciate to the full the
kind remarks of Judge Spooner; they
should 60 to the heart of every sheriff
here, and act as stimulus to greater
effort for efficiency.
we responded to your generous
invitation to come, and are really
glad that we were able to get here.
The pleasure of stay of several
days in your beautiful city is appre-
ciated. You have city which has
only been city in name two years;
city with over 5000 inhabitants,
possessing all modern improvements.
notice you have a system of
waterworks, an electric light plant,
good schools, splendid court house
building, and daily newspaper-the
Pioneer.
In Minneapolis, we have only
two dailies, and according to the
Dutchman's theory, Minneapolis is
only one per cent ahead of Bemidji,
in the newspaper line.
You have a good Judge, and good
people.
We desire to express to you our
deep appreciation of the prepara-
tions you have made for our enjoy
ment. I assure you we will have a
good time, and will enjoy to the
fullest your hospitality; and we
promise to be good while with you.,"

the Hotel Markham last evening

At the conclusion of the banquet
there were no speeches, it being
generally understood that the visit
ors were tired and desired to 60 to
bed and be in readiness, bright and
early for the "doings' of today.
The weather this morning was
threatening, but the visitors de-
clared they would brave the threat
ening storm and take the outing on
the lake.
The North Star" left the dock
this morning for the picnic grounds
at the head of the Lake at 10
O'Clock, and took crowd of forty
eight to the head of the lake.
The trip across the lake afforded
an excellent opportunity for the visi-
itors to view the turbulent waters
of Beautiful Bemidji'' with her
wave-tossed sandy shore, bordered
by back grounds of deep green
woods that caused many expressions
of admiration.
The landing was made at the ex-
treme northern end of the lake, in
the center of a fine stand of Norway
pine, and again were the sheriffs
moved to expressions Of real pleasure
at the view afforded Of the virgin
forest.

been busy since morning at the
picnic ground and had tables, dishes

their town should now receive recog-
milton in this regard. Bemidii is
on the Great Northern and North

hold hearing there on the, subject
tomorrow. -
Up to late hour last night. so
far as could be learned, none of the
members of the commission had
put in an appearance, and it is pos
sible that the foregoing telegram

However, Bemidji should receive
proper consideration at the hands of

city in, the north half of the state
east of cr00kston and west of

The result was as follows:
