SURPRISED AT PROGRESS
AND DEVELOPMENT HERE
7. 3. McManus Visited Bemidji Eleven
Years Ago. Says We Have a
Splendid City.

T. B. McManus of Duluth, who is
member of the state board of
grain appeals (known as the
supreme court of grain inspection")
came to Bemidji yesterday after
noon and looked over the city, to
note the many improvements which
have been made here in recent years.
Mr.. McManus was for many
years resident of Crookston and
while there he visited at Bemidii.
This was eleven years ago, when Be-
midi consisted of but few houses
and at the time the Great Northern
train reached here from Fosston.
In speaking of the development of
the city, since his visit here eleven
years ago, Mr.. McManus said:
You have certainly made great
strides since I was here. This town
is rapidly approaching the metro
politan stage and is, I believe, the
best town in north-central Mime.

Peter Slough Out West.

Peter Slough of Nary,who recently
left here for a trip to the Pacific
coast, writes the Pioneer that he
has been at Portland, Ore; that he
is enjoying good health; that the
weather is very summerlike and he
unwittingly is somewhat sarcastic
in hoping that the weather condi.
tions are the same here.
Mr.. Slough does not say when he
will return, but it is pretty safe tc
state that, like others who have gone
west, he will soon return to this very
desirable country.
