Commercial Club Makes New and Ur-

MAYOR PARKER MAKES PLEA

.~ On Wednesday otsthis week, one
of the leading organizations of the
state will hold it's annual convention
in Bemidji, the State Bankers assoc
iation.
1t is customary for the residents
in the city in which the convention
is held to decorate and it is hoped
that Bemidji will establish a record
in this respect and that organiza-
ton urgently requests that all bust
ness houses decorate.
In speaking of the bankers coming
to Bemidji, Mayor Parker said today:
81 earnestly hope that between
now and Wednesday the business
men of our city will decorate their
stores, in order that the visiting
bankers may know that Bemidti
welcomes their coming, and that they
may leave believing this city to be
one of hustlers and enterprising citi-
zens.
II have been unable to locate a
city where even the district bankers
have met that the place did not decor
ate to their utmost ability and in my
opinion, with the state convention
here, if this city lets this rare appor-
tunity Of advertising slip by, it
will be slap in the face that will
smart for good long while. Dec
crate and let the bankers know that
we are glad to have them with U.S."

stock in this organization, make it
farmers organization, and work for
it's interests"
The speaker told of how he had
aided in organizing creameries in
different parts of this section of the
state, and how they had made good,

than the one which surrounds Be-
midi.

LeClaire subsequently left for Mon

Prisoner Here Said to Have Confessed
A long conference was held at the
county Jail, this morning, and it is
understood that Bean was questioned
and that he made a confession but
this confession is temporarily with
held by the officers in charge.
The plans of the detectives are so
tar reaching and cover so many

next to impossible to give them in

Third Man MAY Be Known.

That the identity of this third man
is fixed almost to a certainty by the
officials is limited at by the officers.
A railroad speeder has been found
half mile south of Puposky, indi-
eating that the men at the last
minute changed their plans and de-
cided to run from Puposky to Bemidji
on the speeder, in precisely the same
manner that the men who committed
the two former robberies at Puposky
made their getaway, one robber be-
ing shot at the time of the last
robbery, Thanksgiving morning,
1909.
The deputy fire marshall and the
detectives now have in their possess
sion two valises, property of Davis
and Bean, which were left at a Be-
midi saloon and restaurant, after
the two men had changed their
clothes prior to leavin for Puposky
to do the job of robbing and firing.
These grips will be searched, say
the officers, and the contents will
further involve two robbers and
their accomplices.
Sheriff Hazen has given instruc-
tons to bis deputies to allow no one
to see Bean in the Jail; and the Off
GERS aer guarding him closely in Or
