Galena mining district by land IN 1927,
settled at the point where the town OF
Dodgeville is now situated. Was in
1920 elected Col. Of Iowa county, the
whole population Of the city icing his
regiment. Organized regiment Of
volunteers at the commencement OF
the BIackhawk war in 1892, which
regiment under his command with his
son A. G. d. and Gen. Geo. w. Jones.
as aids de camp, defeated the Black
hawk Indian army at the celebrated
battle Of Bad Axe, by which he gained
high cnconiums from the commanding
general of the United States army as
we'll as all who had the opportunity OF
witnessing his gallant aud officer like
conduct on that trying occasion. He
was appointed Governor Of Wisconsin
territory in 1886. His propriety of con-
duct in that important station secured
for him the honor of a seat in the u.
S. Senate which he held as long as his
health would justify, and now in his
scar and yellow leaf of life he is loved,
honored and respected wherever he is
known, as an honest, high minded and
gallant old warrior and statesman.
Gov. Henry Dodge happened to be
the first Governor of Iowa, as Iowa
was under his gubcrnatorial admins
tration, a part of Wisconsin. He and
his son sat side by side in the Senate
of tic United States, and more unlike
ly things have happened than that the
son may yet grace the gubernatorial
chair that the father held the first seat
in. We have but few men in our State
who have had the experience in Legis-
lation and diplomacy that Hon. Angus
tus c. Dodge has had. In my humble
opinion, we have no man in the State
his superior as statesman, and It is
questionable if we have single citizen
Of the State Of Iowa more popular than
he is. 1t is we'll known that he COM
mandcd, since he entered Congress,
high degree Of respect and considera
ton generally, from not only the
members of both houses, but was high
Iy respected by the President and
Cabinet officers of the United States,
during his whole Congressional career.
He has in every public trust acquitted
himself honorably, and is well qualified
to render important services to the
honest d democracy and to the nation.

The strictly honorable course that

Of the old block"

of it. The crowd was just large enough to make
it agreeable to all, and nothing If an unpleasant

manner in which Hugh Latham ESQ discharged
the duties OF floor manager.
