Mr. Falls and Mr. Cameron, as might be concluded, are among our most worthy business men. By the practices of economy and by reascon of their business sagacity they are now filling a niche in the wheel of commercialism, and our thousands of read- ers should not fail to rememeber their place of business when they stand in need of any of their wares. CRIPPEN & REESE. The name, “The Reed Studio,” is as fa- miliar to the people of Beltrami county as that of any well known firm in the city, so we need not elaborate upon the record this photograph gallery has made, especially when we call to mind the famous “Reed In- dian Pictures.” However, it is imperative that we mention that Messrs. C. C. Crippen and H. BE. Reese have recently purchased this studio, and are conducting the work in- cident thereto along the same artistic lines observed by Mr. Reed. Mr. Crippen had active management of this studio for about two years. Prior to the transfer of the studio he maintained studios at Ortonville and Clinton. Mr. Reese is widely known throughout this section, and it is a safe prophesy when we assert that these two young artists are destined to make a lasting impression upon the world of photography. They are espe- cially adapted and equipped to produce photogravure, views, copying amateur work, enlarging, and carry an elegant line of nicture frames, not forgetting that they sup- ply the Reed Indian Pictures, creations which will stand as the most admirable and such as have won unstinted praise from all sources. Messrs. Crippen and Reese are recognized artists in their profession; they are con- scientious and painstaking in the pleasing of their many customers, and are to be con- gratulated upon the new trade they have attracted since their purchase of their present place of business. Both are young men who have the true interests of Be- midjl at heart; they are invariably willing to contribute their share to the advertise- ment of the city, and they are therefore de- serving of their share of photographic work which is daily being done. The Pioneer wishes this new firm success in all that word implies, . | | | + J. E. FLATLEY. This gentleman has just recently pur- chased the meat market previously owned by Schmidt & Hazen, the old reliable stand located at 306 Third street. That Mr. Flatley is qualified to conduct the business he has undertaken is evidenced by the fact that he has been a practical farmer, knows livestock when he sees it, and is thus in position to supply to the trade the juiciest and most delectable cuts of meats, whether they be of beef, mutton, pork or veal. Buy- ing fat cattle on the hoof, Mr. Flatley can easily go before the trade on the high merit of the meat he purveys, as the fact that he is an experienced judge of live stock assures his customers of kettle ren- dered lard, clean sausages, sausage meat and bolognas, tender fresh hams, and the very best to be had in sugar cured hams, sweet and selected bacon, and clean and fresh salt meats. In this meat market may also be found the best of oysters and game in season and fresh pouliry, not to men- tion other articles such as sauerkraut, bot tled relishes, cheese, eggs and other con- comitants which go to create a metropol- | | BEMIDJI, BELTRAMI COUNTY AND NORTHERN MINNESOTA. itan meat shop. Mr. Flatley has made a study of the cattle business, a fact which accounts for his entry into the meat trade. The public, as may be imagined, is thus benefited by the experience Mr. Flatley has had in this field, an element worthy of weight when pure food products and well fed live stock for table purposes are taken into consideration. Mr. Flatley has also demonstrated that though he has just bought out this old established market, he has sustained the lucrative trade which came to his counters prior to his advent. Mr. Flatley also convincingly illustrates what is occurring in business circles in Bemidji and Beltrami county, as his prog- ress as a business man proves our re- sources. Mr. Flatley, furthermore, is a merchant who has never withheld his influence or material aid from a publicspirited move- ment. He is one of those who push along a good thing like Bemidji, he can make affidavit that he has been rewarded for the confidence he reposed in the development of this territory, and The Pioneer heartily devotes this space to the prominent men- tion of Mr. Flatley and his business. EARL GEIL. EARL GEIL. As proprietor of the Remore Hotel, Mr. Geil constitutes one of the many other mediums of strength which go to make up Bemidji. Mr. Geil, in addition to his vocation as hotel keeper, is chief of the local fire department, a distinction which has been conferred upon him for nine years past. He is also the treas- urer of the city, now serving his third vear, and is reckoned among our most powerful business men, as well as a potent figure in polities. To indicate the worth of Mr. Geil, it is but necessary to state that he wears a gold medal in recognition of his pro- ficiency as a fire chief, that he was elected by vote of the fire chiefs of the state of Minnesota to the Interna- tional convention of fire chiefs held at
