THE WILD

Washington, Iowa, Press.l
Has nearly all gone from this region.
Flies are as untamahle as ever, and
owls and hawks are still shy, and there
are a few prairie chickens and good
many quail, and an occasional wolf ana
fox live in the suburbs of our civillZa-
ton but nearly every thing has been
eiomesticated and as for Indians, deer,
buffalo, etc, they long since left these
parts.
SO it sounds odd to hear that deer
were once shot on this town site. 1t
sounded like a fairy tale, John Smelt-
zerts story that the outlet of Cone lake
used to be a much smaller brook than
it is now, and that a beavers dam was
built at that point. He says Hon. F. r.
Brockway caught beaver there. The
shy animals cut down lots of trees at
that wooded point, say in 1851. And
otter were citizens of the lake. John
Idol shot one of pair Of parents. The
mate and two cubs put out for fresh
fields and safer waters. but he went hot
on their trail, shot the adult and
picked up the furry picaninnies, eX-
tingllishing the whole family
Who does not regret the going of all

Des Moines. Sept 9.-Mr Robert
Fullerton whose appointment by Sec

approval. He is said to have paid his
partner, Greene. $I5o,000 for the lat
ter's interest in the Chicago Lumber
company, fifteen years ago which per-
mits an estimate as to his personal
wealth. His success has been phenon-
email. He was of North of Ireland
family and came TO this country when
j lad He was ore of eleven OF the
t'ullertons and determined to make his
own way He learned the carpenters
trade when he came to this country
and Immediately went west. He took
an open ticket to Kansas and looked
carefully at the villages as the train
approached them, trying to judge the
best place to stop. He saw q little
town nesting on hill side which at

baggage there, With the intention Of
stopping
In an hour he had contract to build
a house. He overheard two men talk

This delightful spot IS more easily
reached via the Union Pacific than by

inferior to the park itself.

Highmore, $. d, Sept. 9.-The high
more Bulletin, edited by Howard q
Shober, late insurance commissions:
this Week prints Il long open letter from
Mr.. Shober to Governor Her1elds an
swering the latest explanation by the
governor of his action in removing
Shober from his office
II the has been possible doubt here
tofore that Shober WAS removed be-
cause he was too good an official, too
active in enforcing the laws, too IN
sistent in recommending the valued
oley law, and too much feared by IL"
Insurance companies that did not Wasit
that law enforced, it is removed by
this letter.
Mr. Shober does not intimate that the
governor has muddled or garblea in his
defense of himself The controversy
has passed that point of politeness.
The governor is directly accused of re-
sorting to falsehood
Mr. Shober's letter states the gov
ernor has now made three different eN-
plantations of the removal The last
directly controverts the earlier ones
and makes insnuations against Sho-
ber's record ana character which Ny.
Shober denies with a directness and
circumstance that makes his case LOOK
strong.
Mr.. Shober says he first heard that
he was in danger of removal from the
fact that an Old time insurance man i,
Sioux Falls offered to bet $500 on i.
1t turned out that the insurance men.
who We're working diligently to Gust
him, had the first and best infcrma-
zion.
Mr.. Shober declares the governor
simply reversed his attitude on insur-
ance matters to placate the insurance
law; and he charges that every old-line
company in the state except one is to-
day issuing policies that in terms con-
travene the valued policy law passed
at the last session. The Shober letter
makes it evident that the controversy
is not yet near an end. and that befoce
It is done the power of the Dakota in
surance lobby in state affairs Will be
made very plain TO the people of the
state. Mr.. Shober charges that the
governor wants to keep the lobby feel
ing right, in order to secure their sup
port for United States senator.
