OPPICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCREDINGS ' and also TAMS BIXBY Bemidji is grieved and shocked over fli¢ death of Tams Bixby, It was he who> first ‘conceived this town, and through all the years he has maintained his interest and pride in us, and the one great years was to leave the torrid atmosphiere of his Ok- lahoma home every, snmmer and coma to luxuriate in ‘the cool breezes ofLikn These dnnual pflgrlmuu. ‘niost "'frequanfly with . his family; kept him'a familiap figure among our { people and his gracious manner and unending solici- tation for ‘the welfaré ‘and pm caused our people to look forward anticipation for each succeeding visit, - Now he will come no more. Tams Bixby lived a life of unusual activity and usefulness. He had a faculty of making a suceess of whatever he attempted—whether as a power in politics, in developing great daily promoting other business enterprises, anyone .of which would warrant the word success at; the cloge of any man's career. That he climbed the heights, everyone knows; but * 80 for as Bemidji is concerned, there is a: more per- i f sonal !eeling than that a distinguished 'son of the state hal been cut down; to Bemidji the. lou is.a personal one. “We stood on the shore of the hka nd in the sand traced tho ontline of a city and in honor of ‘he interesting Indian character, Chief :Bemidji, we dn- cided on:.Bemidji as the name of our dream exly," ‘was the way Mr, Bixby, with that fmmat\ng smile of his, would explain how Bemidji came to be con- .1 ceived. The beauty of the lake, the natural ndun- tages afforded,- the - favorable -location as a \'lh- g tributing point were influences which yrnmpud Mr. ! Bixby and his associates t6 make this a tawnsité.’ | So long as the city of Bemidji lives, so long will %} the name of.Tams Bixby be one of, its. cherished We, here, who knew him would not:dis- count one whit the credit for all his achievements, and they were many; but to us he was a friend and neighbor, and while we grieve we cling té:the pride - \ memones that of the monuments that are or to his memory none is more significant than that this thriving, prosperous city was due to his initiative and foresight. § SLOWING DOWN A BIT Our senatorial nominations are slowing down a bit.
