In addition to the work in connection with the Minnesota Edi- torial Association. Mr. Herbert conceived the idea of a National Editorial Association, and in the winter of 1885. effected such an organization at New Orleans, where he was chosen as its first president.
In addition to his editorial work. Mr. Herbert was always greatly interested in educational affairs. He served for many years as a member of the Board of Education at Red Wing, and was a member of the first Board of Trustees of the State Public School of Minnesota, at Owatonna. In his new home at Evanston he became president of the Board of Education, and, with his associates, carried to completion a new and one of the finest school

buildings in the city. For many years he has served as a mem- ber of the Board of Directors of the Lincoln Memorial University at Cumberland Gap. Tenn.
Mr. Herbert was one of the organizers of the Red Wing Mills, Red Wing Building Association, Red Wing Stoneware Company, Red Wing Furniture Company and the Red Wing Printing Com- pany. Mr. Herbert resides in Ravenswood. Chicago, where he is actively engaged in the publishing business.
Tams Bixby, while not at the present time an actual resident of this county, nevertheless retains his interests here and is de- cidedly a Red Wing man. He was born December 12, 1856, at Staunton. Va., son of Bradford W. and Susan J. Bixby, who, being in moderate circumstances. were able to supply their son with none of those advantages which money can give. The family settled in Stillwater in 1857. coming to Red Wing in the fall of 1862. Here Tams spent his boyhood and early manhood. receiving his early education in the parish schools which he attended until reaching the age of thirteen years. Beyond that his educational advantages have been such as an active mind can derive through reading. experience and observation. Possessed of a remarkable degree of energy and enterprise, he was not slow to employ his talents in whatever offered a field for his abilities, whether in the field of intellectual, moral or industrial endeavor, and more par- ticularly the first two. The result in a business and official way has been that he has been engaged as news agent, hotel keeper, baker, editor and publisher and in high state and governmental positions, while in those lines that are purely in the realm of altruism he has taken no less an active part, his Y. M. C. A. en- deavors being well known. He was still scarcely more than a youth when he made his first venture into newspaper work, and it is humorously told that at one time when he edited the "Argus" for several weeks in the absence of the real editor, he conducted it in so up-to-date a manner that the editor upon his return found two live libel suits pending against the paper. Mr. Bixby established the Red Wing "Sun" January 17, 1884, and conducted that paper until its consolidation with the "Advanee" and the "Republican" since when he has been connected with the "Republiean," although for many years past his duties have been of an official rather than of an active capacity. Since early youth he has taken an active interest in politics, and his publie career was started as chairman of the Republican county committee of Goodhue county. His excellent work in that capacity attracted the attention of Republicans in other parts of the state and when the Republican League of Minnesota was organized he was made its secretary. Subsequently he filled the office of secretary to the Republican State Central Committee, from which position he was
,

promoted to that of chairman. In this capacity he managed some of the hardest fought political battles in the annals of Minnesota and never failed to lead the party to victory. He has been seere- tary of the railroad and warehouse commission of Minnesota. From 1888 to 1889 be was private secretary for Gov. W. R. Mer- riam; from 1889 to 1892 for Knute Nelson ; from 1892 to 1896 for David M. Clough. At the election of United States senator in 1901 he was urged by many friends to become a candidate and had he accepted their offers at the proper time it was freely as- serted that his chances of success would have been of the best. As it was he received a handsome complimentary vote. Mr. Bixby had charge of the senatorial campaign of Knute Nelson which he conducted in his usual vigorous, honorable and effective manner. 'Mr. Bixby was at one time prominently mentioned in connection with a cabinet position as secretary of the interior. an appoint- ment which, according to the newspapers, was practically within his grasp had he cared to take it. Probably Mr. Bixby's most distinguished work. however, has been done in connection with the Five Civilized Tribes. so called. in the Indian Territory. These tribes are the richest people in the world. and when condi- tions became such that immediate supervision and adjustment of their affairs by the United States government was necessary. Mr. Bixby was named as a member of the so-called Dawes Indian Commission, of which he was either acting or actual chairman from May 2. 1897, when he was appointed by President William MeKinley, until July 1. 1905. when that commission was abolished and President Theodore Roosevelt appointed Mr. Bixby as com- missioner. a position he retained until July, 1907, when the affairs of the Five Tribes, having been reorganized and placed on a satis- factory basis, their supervision was vested in the Department of the Interior. The stupendous task which Mr. Bixby performed only those who were with him in the work can fully realize. Op- posed by all kinds of clever men and powerful interests who, without sanction of law, had secured control of mineral and other valuable rights belonging to the Indians, he adjusted matters where several millions of dollars were concerned, with an honesty and fearlessness that was as unswerving as it was intelligent. During this period. Mr. Bixby came back to Minnesota for a couple of months, gathered up the tangled threads of a Repub- lican political campaign. which, nearly over. seemed almost hope- less. and carried it to a successful conclusion. Upon his return from the South in 1907. Mr. Bixby and a number of friends pur- chased a controlling interest in the "Pioneer Press" of St. Paul, and Mr. Bixby became the general manager. He at onee devoted his energy and ability as a newspaper man and organizer to mak- ing the "Pioneer Press" the best paper in the Northwest, and this
1065
HISTORY OF GOODHUE COUNTY
effort bore fruit in the "Pioneer Press" as it is today. The "Evening Pioneer Press" is one of the children of Mr. Bixby's thoughts. A few months ago the "Pioneer Press" was purchased by the St. Paul "Dispatch," but Mr. Bixby remains as general manager. In Red Wing he is president of the Red Wing Print- ing Co., and his business interests include all the leading indus- tries of this city, in most of which he is either an officer, stock- holder or director. At the present time he is a member of the Minnesota Club, of St. Paul; the St. Paul Town and Country Club; the Red Wing Commercial Club and the Muskogee (Indian Territory) Town and Country Club. He is a Knight Templar, as well as a member of other Masonic bodies; also of the Elks, the Odd Fellows and the Knights of Pythias. April 27, 1886, he was married to Clara Mues, and has three sons, Edson K., born April 9, 1887; Joel If., born November 30, 1888; and Tams, Jr., born September 12, 1891. Mr. Bixby's record bespeaks his merit. He is a man of untiring energy and unswerving patriotism and loyalty, always ready to give his best effort and his money to the upbuilding of the community at large and particularly his home town of Red Wing.
Baker C. Grover was born in Bethel, Oxford county, Maine, November 18, 1840, son of James and Amelia Baker, natives of Massachusetts and Maine respectively, the former of whom died in 1865 and the latter in 1840. He received an academy educa- tion in his native town, and followed farming until April, 1868, when he came to Zumbrota and engaged in farming, also being interested in several other enterprises including a cheese factory and a livery barn. He still owns the livery stable in partnership with his son, James D., having been in this business thirty-three years. He also deals in lands and stocks and owns a quantity of local stocks including shares in the Zumbrota Clay works. He is now practically retired. In addition to his local interests he owns a stable in Grafton, N. D., which is now conducted by his son, H. B. He is a Republican in politics, served in the legis- lature in 1876-77; was town clerk eight years; member of the village council ten years; postmaster eight years and eleven months and member of the school board nineteen years, seventeen of which he was its president. Mr. Grover was married August 27, 1863, at Bethel. Me., to Lizzie Rose, daughter of Duane and Maria (Clark) Rose. To this union have been born seven chil- dren : Frank, who died in infancy; H. B., now a liveryman in Grafton, N. D .; Howard, who died in infancy; Lillian, who died in 1901; James D., who is his father's partner under the firm name of B. C.
