MINNESOTA NEEDS MORE SETTLERS; WILL GET 'EM Delegates to the Land Convention Will Explain Advantages of “North Star State.” St. Paul Pioneer Press: Gov. A. O. Eberhart, Congressman Halvor Steenerson of the Ninth district and George Welsh, state immigration agent, left last evening for Chicago to attend the National Farm Land congress, which opens today. Gov. Eberhart and Congressman Steener- son will deliver addresses before the congress. ‘ Mr. - Steenerson, who will speak Thursday, says he is making the trip for the purpose of enlightening the delegates to the congress regarding the millions of acres of undeveloped lands in his district. He wants more settlers. “When I first went to congress,” said Mr. Steenerson yesterday, “we had eight rural mail delivery routes. Now we have 108. What I am after is a daily mail delivery for every farmer in the country and that can be obtained only by more settlers. “The government -demands 100 farmers for every twenty-five miles of route, but because of the big farms and the undeveloped country be- tween many of our routes are more than thirty miles long. We bave a grand country and as I say, what we want is settlers.” Committee Well Pleased With Bemidiji. On October 26 the members of the Water Powers, Forestry and Drainage committee of the Wisconsin legislature visited Bemidji for a few hours, having come here from Cass Lake, where they had been to in- vestigate the workings of the law in force on the ceded lands with regard to the burning of slashings left from logging operations. In the party were Senators H. P. Bird (chairman), Paul O. Husting and Henry Krumery; Assemblymen William M.’Cray, George P. Ham- brecht, F. W. Kubasta and James E. Thomas and Oscar Lind, clerk. That the gentleman who composed the party were greatly pleased with their brief visit to Bemidiji is evi- denced by the following letter which was received by the Pioneer and which was written by Assemblyman George P. Hambrecht: “Grand Rapids, Wis., Nov. 15. “Mr. A. G. Rutledge, Bemidji, Minn. Dear Mr. Rutledge:—Pardon me for not acknowledging receipt of your Daily Pioneer of October 27, outlining the brief visit of our legislative water powers committee to your city, but the fact is, I have been so busy with a multitude of matters upon my return to Grand Rapids that I have neglected much of my correspondence. “I want to say now, for myself and for the balance of the com- mittee, that we were all highly pleased with our short stay at Be- midji, and we found it one of the best little cities on our route. From the . progressive quality of your citizens, and from your favorable location, you certainly have a brilliant future ahead. - I shall always read of advancement with pleasure. “Very truly yours, “—Geo. P. Hambrecht.” “‘Grandma” Senear, Dead. Mrs. Senear, commonly called and known as “Grandma” Senear, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. T.

Hanson has four sisters who are living at Car- barry and his parents reside in Norway. ' Pleased With Growth of Bemidji. Homer C. Strong and son, Walter, of Stanley, Wis., arrived in the city last night and are guests at the home of P. M. Dicaire, Mr. Strong visited Bemidji some nine years ago and is greatly pleased with the growth and progress the city has made in that time. Re- marking to Mr. Dicaire, Mr. Strong said: “I am well pleased with the wond- erful growth and thrift your town has shown and can truly say that its growth has no equal in Minne- | sota or Wisconsin.” Mr. Strong is a conductor on the Chicago-Northwestern line.
