The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1919-06-11

The Seth annual convention OF the
North Dakota Firemen's association,
one that may well be styled "recon-
struction convention" closed this
afternoon with the election Of officers
and the .selection of 10 meeting place
for 1920. New Rockford appeared on
the scene yesterday sase hot conteh--
der for rSthe honor OF entertaining the
firemen in 1920, and the balloting on
this question was almost, unanimous.
Harry Thompson, former chief Of
the Bismarck city department., was an
active candidate for the. presidency Of
the association to succeed ". F. Cras;-:
we'll Of Vailey City, for fifteen years
chief Of his home fire department
and Tor two years head Of the state or
ganisation. .
NE address Of welcome was made
yeseelday by Mayor Wv. Lucas, who
formally turned over the keys Of the
citysttobthe svisitors.{ President W. +.
Craswell responded on Behalf Of the
fireiiaen! One Of the most interesting
addresses Of the day was made by
Frank Robson of Cando, who spoke
on reconstruction and the parte which
the North Dakota Firemen's associa-
ton must play in this program in the
state and in their own, communities.
Mr.. Robson presented many points
which sank home, and his address was
enthusiastically applauded. .
The Bismarck convention has prov
en- that the firemen's association can
"come back" There was no meeting
Of the state organization last year
because of the war. The last assem-
bly repealed the act under which
$4,000 had been appropriated for each
biennium for more than 9 quarter OF a
century to Assist the firemen in H.
nancing their annual conventions
Fears had been expressed that these
discouraging factors might result in a
loss of interest on the part Of the
firemen, The splendid attendance and
close interest shown in the sessions
has proven that thissis anything but
true. and az q result Of the Bismarck
convention the firemen's association,
standing upon its own fact, and with
out its, ,old-time state subsidy, enters
upon its new career with better
snirit, than ever, before.
~ ,,,OldrTimer Is Here
One, Of tie notable figures in the
present convention is w. F. Duvall OF
Valley City, the only man here who at
tended the initial meeting Of the asso.
ciation at Fargo in 1884. Mr.. Duvall
came to North Dakota in 1880, enter
Inc the employ Of Major Edwards,
founder Of the Argus and the Forum,
at Fargo. One year later he Joined
Fargo's first volunteer fire depart.
ment, and he was instrumental in the
organization Of the Dakota associa-
ton, back in territorial days. More
than a quarter Of century Mr.. Duvall
located in Valley City. and, finding
he promptly proceeded to organize
one. with which he has been associated
ever since. He is now paid member
of the Valley City department and is
employed in tho mechanical depart
ment of the Valley City Times-R Record.
