Ben Butler banks xla5, 'sA) u Year from
Ms law practice.
Bent County register., 1886-10-16

Our people from Iowa have been
doing good service for Lamar and
Bent county. During their visits to
the Hawkeye state this summer their
fair representation of our resources,
business interests and prospects has
induced many of the citizens of that
goodly state to "Come ana see," and
seeing they are conquered. Their
neighbors hear the good reports and
come also. Some come for lucre
and some for health, but all come to
stay. We learn from the people
that the good seed is growing into
an abundant harvest, and that We
may expect large accessions to the
Iowa colony this fall and next
spring.
In this respect there has been no
more hard work done for Lamar and
Bent county than that performed by
Graham d Cooper, the real estate
and land attorneys. These gentle
men have made a number of trips
back to Iowa and on their return
each time have brought out a small
excursion, and these excursions is
what makes up the Iowa colony.
They have sent large number of
papers each week and daily answer
piles of letters asking about Lamar
and the country. In conversation
with q member of this firm few
Bent County register., 1886-10-16

days ago he said: "There is quite
western fever in his old state and
that the objective point was Lamar. y
They have been talked to, have
studied the maps and the history Of
the country, have read the papers
and people standing SO high in the
scale of intelligence grasp the situa-
ton. They realize that our broad
expanse of fertile lands and grazing
fields, coupled with our pure air and
bright sunshine must soon develope
into land of plenty and comfort,
the home of healthy and prosper
GUS people. So come on our Hawk
eye friends; you will find many old
neighbors and other good people to
welcome you, and make you happy.

Among the real estate firms in La
mar that have been most Successful
is that of Craddock & Fuller. Mr..
Craddock has been in the Office of
the town com pany since the town
WAS started, and can tell as much
about the town site, who owns lots,
how often they have changed hands,
just where each lot is, and all about
it, as any man in town. He came
here from Garden City, where he
had been handling real estate all
through their lively times and un-
derstands the business thoroughly.
Mr.. Fuller was connected with the
land department of the Santa Fe
road thirteen years, and in that time
became well posted particularly with
the country and the lands through
which the Santa Fe runs.
Their success proves their aptness
and ability as handlers of real estate.
They are among the reliable men of
the community and deserve the iu-
crative business their energy has Sc
cured for them.

We acknowledge the receipt with
thanks, of a complimentary ticket to

Every preparation has been made to

including the fine stock which will
be a show of itself worth seeing.

between what is now the wonderful
and beautiful city of Lamar and the
broad expanse of prairie surrounding,
but having that stickstutativeness
properties that are SO peculiar to the
successful western man, he invested
largely in Lamar property, and has
witnessed and prospered by the large
advance of property here. He is
pleasant an1 affable man to deal
with.
Mr.. Lowe, the legal gentleman of
the firm although having more re-
Gently located among us, comes well
recommended as a first-class reliable
attorney, one who Is worthy the con-
fidence of the people and who would
look carefully to all matters per-
tanning to law as well as contesting
of government land entrusted to
him. There is also connected with
the firm H. II. Holmberg, deputy
county surveyor, one of the best
posted men in his profession in the
county, and all locations made by
the firm will be surveyed.
The firm have recently located
large colony of people from Long
mont, Colo, headed by Mr.. George
Sherber, Mr.. (. NJ. Slater, F. NJ.
Nye, J. NJ. Doughtry, John H. Nye
and Z. j. crawford form a part of
the colony. The above named par
ties are all old farmers in Colorado,
and thoroughly understand the
mode of farming BY irrigation. They
have now completed the organiza-
ton of company to be known as
the Farmers Ditch company. This
Ditch will extend for twenty miles
and is intended for the sole use and
benefit of the farmers. The country
through which this ditch passes Is
one of the most beautiful rs well as
the richest of Colorado's farming
land.
To Mr.. Sherber, through whose
untiriug efforts the organization of
this ditch company has bean perfect
ed We as people in general are un-
der many obligations. 1t opens up
and shows to the eastern man who is
not familiar with irrigation system
of farming that is entirely new 20
him, and forever banishes that theo-
ry that Colorado is a bleak, barren
desert. AS before stated this is
strictly private ditch, for the use
and benefit of the farmers and any
person locating there can take and
pay for their water by work on the
ditch. The books of said company
will be found at the office of Ament,
Lowe Il Co., who will take pleasure
in informing any of their callers or
friends of the working of the same.
Farmers and persons who desire
can work out stock in ditch giving
to them perpetual right of the
water and right that is transfera-
BILE in sale of land.

There is no man who has done
more work for Lamar, or who en-
joys more keenly the fruits of his
labor than ]. E. Godding, secretary
of the town company. For a month
before Lamar was ever heard of, to
the present time, he has worked
without intermission to make Lamar
what it is. He should as he proba-
bly, does feel proud of his labor and
if he was less modest man, he
could point out at every hand what
he has accomplished with no one to
dispute the honor.

Bent County register., 1886-10-16

When We came to Lamar We
united our fortunes with this town
and county and are resolved to leave
no stone unturned that will in any
way advance the interests of either.
We shall therefore take pride occs-
sionally in especially noticing those
men who are devoting their time,
talent and money to the up-building
and advancement of our town and
surrounding country.
In this connection We take pleas
ure in noticing Mr.. Frank c.
Descent, real estate broker and land
agent. Mr.. Descent was born at
Gopher in the spring of 1856, and
was one of the few Minnesotians
who barely escaped the tomahawk
in the bsrtarous Indian massacre of
the spring of 1852. 1t will be re-
membered that while most all the
able bodied men of that section were
at the front fighting to put down the
rebellion, number of Indian tribes
made n foray into that state pillaging
and numbering on every hand. Help
less women and children fell vic
tins to their savage ferocity. The
subject of our sketch was barely six
years old a, that time. His career
since that time is of interest and
his friends have been gratitied
At his phenominal success. Be
fore he was of age he was in the
Farmers and Mechanics Savings
Bank of Minneapolis, and served as
its assistant cashier for FIVE years.
From there he went to Dakota,
where he Was admitted to the bar
in 1878, and done a general law and
real estate business and was one of
the organizers of Richland county,
having located at Wahpeton, the
county seat, when there were but
five buildings there. She is now 3
fiourishing town of six thousand in
habitants and her prosperity is large
ly due to the energy and business
tact of Mr.. Deacent. In 1884 he re-
moved to Comanche county, Kansas,
where he followed his profession,
practicing in the superior and cir
cult courts of that state and in which
he was eminently successful.
Bat Frank is not the man to stay
behind when a town or country has
been started well on its way toward
development. He is a pioneer by
nature and instinct His motto is,
"Westward the star of empire takes
its way" and he must be in the van
guard of civilization or nowhere.
Hence when the town-site of Lamar
was selected he was the first man on
the ground almost, and he put up
the first residence, a neat and sub-
stantial cottage, where "he lives at
home" in every sense that the term
implies. He has, perhaps, the
largest real estate business of any
man in the county, and has the bulk
of the trade in the transfer of town
lots. His books show a surprisingly
large number of sales in that line The
last month, and the sellers have re.
allied handsomely on their invest
ments. Without disparaging other
live, wide-awake citizens, of whom
Lamar has more than any town of
its size in the state, we think we can
truthfully say that he has done more
for the advancement OF this town
than any other single man. With a
few men of the enterprise and tact
that Frank possesses Lamar's sue
cess as business centre is a aues-
ton of only a very short time.
