Fargo, N. D., Nov 10, 1908,
CARY SAFE Co., Buffalo, N. Y.
Gentlemen: While loca ted at Whit
temore, Iowa, I purchased Carey
safe, and when the whole town was
destroyed by fire in 1898 my safe
brought out. all it's books and papers
in good condition. My safe stood in
the second story Of a heavy frame
building so feet long by 25 feet wide
and fell into the cellar distance OF
about 25 feet and lay ia the rcoal and
debris for four days before j got it
out, SO / consider this test a most
severe one, and leaves no doubt as to
the fire proof qualities of your safes
My safe opened on the combina-
tion the first trial after
being taken out OF the ruins. One
merchant had a much larger safe Of
another make, and his books and
papers were destroyed. Notwith-
standing the terrible heat my safe
was subjected to, still have itsin NV
office, over the Fargo National Bank
TO intending customers i can highly
recommend the Cary safes.
Truly Yours,
e. H. McENROE.
Attorney at Law.

Mathew Stanley Quay, a Repub.
liean leader, statesman aud sen ator
from Pennsylvania, died at his
home, in chat state, last Saturday
afternoon. In tie days Of bis
prime he was the greatest political
leader in his party. He not only
successfully led his party to victory
in 1855, but ne successfully COM
batted the calumnies OF his enemies
both in and out of his own party.
No man IN the political history Of
the United States has ever been
more outrageously traduced abused
and prosecuted, yes.and prosecuted
in the courts of the country than
Senator Quay, and yet he stood up
under It facing his enemies through
it all and came out victorious at
every turn. He had the warmest
friends and the bitterest enemies of
any man that ever figured in Amer
lean politics. He was a long shot
better than his enemies.
