Elk River Sentinel – July 28, 1911

FIRE DEPARTMENT ORGANIZED FOR THE MILL AND FOR THE TOWN OF ELK RIVER

“At a well attended meeting held on Tuesday evening a fire department for the Potlatch Lumber company’s sawmill and yard was organized. The meeting was opened by electing Andrew Bloom, chairman, and D.D. Rosenberry, secretary.

John Roach and W.J. Beadone were placed in nomination for chief of the department. Mr. Beadone received the majority vote and was elected. Peter Deidrich was elected assistant chief. Michael Lillig was elected treasurer.

The regular meetings of the department will be held on Wednesday evening of each week. A fine of 25 cents will be assessed against each member who is absent from any regular meeting without a valid excuse.

The department has twenty-five members enrolled. Mill Superintendent Jos. Edwards selecting one-half from the mill crew and the other half being selected by Yard Superintendent Chas. Peterson from the yard crew.”
