Foss, started the Pioneer the following month. Mr. Foss retired from the paper a year later, and was succeeded by W. F. Street, attorney at law, who was connected with the paper until oct 1, 1899, when he sold his interest to Mr. Greeley, who came here from West Superior, Wis. The Pioneer is well established, and is doing a prosperous business. Mr. Kaiser was appointed U. S. court commissioner soon after coming here, but resigned that office on being appointed postmaster of Bemidji in May, 1898, which position he still holds. (Bemidji Pioneer, January 1900)
