RENVILLE COUNTY Joseph Renville, for whom this county, established in 1855, was named, was a “bois brule” or half breed, his father being a Brenehman and his mother an Indian woman. Renville was born about 1779 at or near Kapo- sia village of the Sioux, a few miles below St. Paul on the opposite side of the river. After a few years in school in Canada he entered the fur trade in the Northwest. In the War of 1812 he held a captain’s commission in the British army and led a com- pany of Sioux against the frontier. After the war he accepted employment with the American Fur company and established his trading house at Lac qui Parle, where he died in 1846. Renville was a firm friend of the mission- aries who located this station at Lac qui Parle and was of great assistance to them, particularly in their work of translating the Scripture in- to the Dakota language.

Several hundred members of the Saetesdalslaget, a national Norwegian organization, are today the guests of the city of Bemidji. The organiza- tion is composed of former residents of the Saetesdal district in Norway. Meetings of ‘‘get-acquainted” con- ventions are held annually. The city of Bemidji extends her most cordial welcome to the Saetes- dalslaget. The city’s gates swing wide. Bemidji appreciates the honor to entertain this Norwegian organi- zation. Sixty miles north from the nearest railroad, Chief Bemidji, chief of the Chippewas, thought he was safe from the encroachment of the white man. But one day with the beautiful au- tumn haze hanging over the lake he saw a white man invade his country. The white men blazed their way and cut a wogan road through the prime- val forests and established a trading post on a beautiful lake to barter with Chief Bemidji's Indians. The Indians were peaceful and well dis- posed toward the whites. Several years later the little colony of whites had grown to 200 souls and in May, 1896, their colony was incorporated into the village of Be- midji. The village was named in honor of the old chief who died in April, 1904, at the age of 85 years. In 1896 Bemidji became the mecca for many settlers from all sections of the south and west, and the tide of immigration has ever since surged this way, resulting in one season in the location of the present site of the city, a sufficient population to justify the organization of a city: So much historical lore is associ- ated’ with Bemidji that it would re- quire columns to properly depiet it in all its elements of bravery, vigor, spontaneity, romance, richness and beauty. In twenty years Bemidji has grad- uated to a first class city of nearly 8,000 population, and which has now unprecedentel recognition for pro- gressiveness and energy. In com- paratively a few years it has won the non-de-plume of “The Hub City of the Northwest,” “The Magic City of the North,” and “The City of Enter- prise.” yBemidji has many means for being. 1t is situated on the west shore of the beautiful lake by the same name, in Reltrami county. Minnesota. Briefly stated, it is 279 miles rorth of St. Paul and Minneapolis, 180 miles west of Duluth, 90 miles east of Crookston and 118 miles east from Grand Forks. A glance-at the:map of the state will indicate how admirably situated it is{tages in the way of sure-returns: To geographically, for becoming a met- ropolis of the great north country. It is the logical commercial center of a territory embracing something in ex- cess of 40,000 square miles, a terri- tory which is developing rapidly. Lake’ Bemidji, with its superb beaches; its. waters of crystal clear- ness, its irregular shore-line, with wooded bluffs and its waters teeming with gamey fish, adds, in every way, to Bemidji claims as a city beautiful. Bemidji has the northern Minne- sota climate, a climate that is health- ful and vigorous for the full-blooded man who wants to do a day’s work. The cool breezes of summer followed by the long mild days of golden au- tumn offer attractions that make those of California seem insipid. Bemidji is entered by the Minne- sota & International, Soo, Great Northern and the Minneapolis, Red f.ake & Manitoba railways. Bemidji ranks as the fourth in the state as a shipping center. The city is in the center of the great pine for- ests of northern Minnesota and the main industry is lumbering. Bemidji is on the route of the Wonderland trail from Duluth to the Yellowstone national park and is on the proposed route of the Jefferson highway from New Orleans to Win- nipeg. Bemidji offers to the young man, opportunities peculiar to a new coun- try with potential wealth and open- ing for leadership in every branch of activity. [To the man of family, it offers not only a home where he can secure for his children the ad- vantages of good schools and healthy, wholesome surroundings, but work in a country not already crowded with business and laboring men. For the manufacturer it has ready and adequate power for industrial pur- poses, in close proximity to a timber supply, a large and growing market and east transportation of his pro- ducts in all directions. To the in- vestor it affords an opportunity to pick up for only a small sum, prop- Use ‘Gets-It’ for Gorns!” —_— < It's the New Plan. Simple. Sure as Fate.

The original object of the school was to give daughters of clergymen doing missionary work among the wild Dakota Indians here half a cen- tury ago, a chance to get an educa- tion.
