The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1904-10-19

Danced to Bullock's Bullock was the
Music first sheriff of
Helena in the pioneer days and the
first sheriff of Deadwood, when the
Black Hills contained as picturesque
a set of cut-throats as ever existed.
Bullock is now the governments for
est reserve representative of South Da-
kota, man Of means and calm.
He has the voice of a woman, the
garb of minister, the silence of a
confidential clerk of Morgan or Rookie
Teller. Yet in the best of his days,
when he represented the first law and
order introduced to the mining camps
of the Hills (where by the way most
of the fortune of Mr.. Hearst has come
FROM Bullock as a sheriff put, as am
told, some rs men out of existence. He
kept no notches on his gun nor do
know that he has ever talked of his
past duties as q sheriff-but he got ac-
ton.
l have been told by old residents of
Deadwood who remember the days of
'76 ana ~ that when the citizens
committee called for Bullock to come
to Deadwood that he arrived in the
garb of circuit riding minister-no
pistols in sight, no display of leather
brooches OF bespangled sombrero. Wild
Bill was at that timo in his prime and
1t is said that Bullock asked him:
I'D like you to be my chief depu-
ty."
To which Wild Bill replied: II can't
do 1t, Seth, because have friends on
both sides. I'm neither for nor against
you"
That afternoon Sheriff Bullock
walked down the narrow way of the
old gulch of Deadwood and had MIS-
scat and his boots spat upon by indig-
nant stage robbers, gamblers and muir
derers, who resented his appearance.
Still he enained calm. But when he
started on his return trip through the
gulch where now is a prosperous and
law-abiding city they say he slipped
his hands back of his clerical coat and
began shooting. and when the calm of
evening came upon the town there
were five desperadoes out of existence.
He deliberately hunted them up, told
them what the law Of Deadwood was
to be, asked for their objections, and
when these objections came enforced
by six-shooter he began shooting.

The next day, having information Of
the proposed hold-up of the Deadwood
stage at Lone Tree by bandits, he Wis
tied the spot and put two or three ann
bilious freebooters out of existence.
After that he was recognized as the
sheriff of Deadwood. In years time
he made the gulch respector of the
law. He killed only when it was nee
essary to uphold the law, and in ali
that time they tell me his voice never
rose above the tone level Of wom-

found full sway.
1t is the same characteristic that
caused him to make of western men
his closest friends, and for the west
erners to take to him.
No incident of the Chicago conven-
ton was more greatly enjoyed by the
president than one in which one Of
these western friends played promi-
nent part. The friend in question was
Seth Bullock. He was delegate to
the convention from the northwest,
and his tall, sparse frame doomed up
on the horizon and emitted shouts for
Teddy" at every opportunity. But
even his western ardor did not seem
to dispel the frost in the atmosphere,
and Bullock determined to demand
eastern assistance. His style called for
cheers, bands of music and action, and
he could not understand why New York
the state which claimed Teddy" as its
own, did not awake to the necessity of
the occasion. The first day passed
without demonstration such as suit
ed Bullock, and at its close he was
Disguised, but determined that an
other should not pass in the same way.
Taking with him that unmistakable
air of the west, he walked over to the
headquarters of the New York delega-
ton and announced:
"Im Seth Bullock from Deadwood.
I'm for Teddy. I'm from the west You
fellows from New York are frosty
you're good only for icing tea. We've
got mosquitoes in the Black Hills that
have more blood in them than you
fellows. Now you whoop her up to-
morrow or I'll make trouble. Get ac-
ton"
New York woke up the next day.
1t takes electoral votes to elect, and
the eastern states have the votes, but
Roosevelt would rather have the
friendship of men like Bullock than of
the magnates of Wall street.

PEOPLE of the interior will not fail to appreciate the increased mail facilities afforded this part of Alaska by the inauguration of the route from Valdez to Panama. It is hoped the new service will relieve the pressure on the Yukon river route so that secord-class mail will arrive during the winter. The new ser vice might be improved, however, by changing the run between Fair banks and Panama so as to cross over via Eureka creek to Rampant, and thence down the Yukon to Panama, instead of following the Panama river all the way, as it does at present. The route via Rampant is not only about thirty-fve miles shorter, but has the advantage of a trail kept open by much travel and extends through a country not so isolated as the lower Panama. h. cidentally, it would facilitate com munication between Rampant and all parts of the Yukon river and Cinema and Fairbanks.

ACCORDING 10 the most reliable figures obtainable. the United States government has derived enough clear money from Alaska to more than pay I per cent. for three years on the cost of constructing and equipping a railroad to the Yukon. After the lapse of three years the government might safely be esti. mated to save enough annually on transportation of mail and milirary supplies to pay per cent. on the cost, and it iS pretty safe to say with this rate of interest on the investment guaranteed tor twenty. i've years company could readily be found Co undertake the enter ptisc Far greater sums are ex. pended on river and baFboF i'm proycment schemes iu the States with less beueat so the country E commerce.

OF the several railroads spoken of to connect the interior of Alaska with salt water, only ore has been actually commenced. That ore is headed for the center Cf population and development, and will meet paying traffic when it comes. Is it unreasonable to expect it to be completed soon? Advocates of other routes may advance all the theories they choose; but the important facts remain that the Alaska Central is the only line at present building, and is aiming for the only point at present important enough to sustain it after it is built.

Mad Dog Scare.

The 10Th of August a mad dog,
was killed out in Delaware township
but, before its end was accomplished
it had done what now proves to be a
vast amount Of damage. Within the
past week Chauncy Mead has lost a
valuable young horse and COW that
were affected with the madness;
Samuel Munson has had eleven hogs
60 mad; Sidney Lawrence a COW;
Frank Mead had to kill a hog that
had been bitten as did also @. A. L.
Franks; and Mr.. Strain on the
Thompson place shot his dog that
had been fighting with the mad dog
and that later showed symptoms Of
going mad. A number of other
dogs we've seen at the time fighting
with the mad animal, and the par
ents Of school children in that town
ship are rightfully afraid to send
their girls and boys to school, SO
that the trouble has already attained
far reaching results. A number of
dogs have been shot and it would
seem as though there should be a
unanimous desire out there to at
least keep all dogs in quarantine
upon their owners premises for
another thirty days or until all dan
ger is past.

Lucerne!i- There we stopped most of
a day, taking long carriage drive
along ths- Shore of the lake, in full
view of beautiful mountains. .Wewent
out to Tells Chapel erected on the
spot whore Telliis supposed to have
shot Gessier. There ale three large
wall paintings dating from the
eighteenth century descriptive of
the event. The approach to the
chapel is through the "Hohle Case"
or Hallow way, road cut through a
hill, and over hung by gigantic
beech trees. From there we drove
on to the little village of Immense,
from which we can go up over the
Rigi pass. As the weather did not
promise to stay fair we returned to
Lucerne and went by rail over the
Brunig pass on cog-wheel road,
and then by boat on the Lake Of
Brienz to Interlaken.
There we strolled along the
"Hoheweg,' with the crowds Of tour,
lists, and enjoyed the attractive shop
windows filed with wonderful swiss
embroideries, wood and ivory carv-
ings very tempting, but demanding
SO much money if one INDUCED to,
any extent. The next day we took
carriage from Interlaken to Lauter-
brunnen. That was one of the most
enjoyable times we have had. The
mountains were grand, with their
snow clad peaks before US in differ
ent positions as we wound along.
Then the green slopes near at hand
with their dark green trees and here
and there a white waterfall glisten-
ing in the sun, were always source
Of delight. From Lauterbrunnen we
came almost straight up on an in
cline, to Murren, $3.50 feet high.
We are above some snow across the
valley and have a beautiful view Of
the Monch, Eiger and Jungfrau. It
isswarm here during the day,but SO
cold in the evening that we are glad
of fire. There are beautiful walks
and climbs around here, and one
can be constantly employed in a
delightfully."- lazy way. We shall be
here about a week, and I know that
even then we shall be sorry to leave.

the friends at home, remain

Strawberry Point Mail Press:
Albert Allenstein and family while
on their way home from this place
to Lamont, met with quite serious
mishap. They were driving down
the hill by the covered bridge south
west Of town. The harness broke
letting the buggy run into the team
of colts. This started the animals
and away they went. Mr.. Allen
stein and his Oldest boy were thrown
into the Maquoketa river, and the
rest of the family were dumped out
upon the ground. They all escaped
injury except the boy who was quite
badly hurt. However nothing SER
ious resulted from his injuries.
