1t is known that Mr.. Huss did

He was determined that the 500
people should not make serio US
blunder by passing up these two
places, which offered splendid
fields for 500 business.
His persistence in presenting the
claims of Bemidji had considerable
to do with the final determination
of President Pennington and other
