FRED HERE DEAD LEST YOU FORCE
Versatile Editor Of West Side
Journal Passes Away.
DIED AT CARROLL HOSPITAL
Funeral Services To-day at his old
home in Fremont. Nebraska Was
Prominent and Popular Citizen

Mr.. Fred j. HERE, mayor of West
Side, editor of the West Side Journal,
manager of one of the telephone ex-
changes, and proprietor of the West
Side barbershop, died on Tuesday,
January 10th, at the. hospital at Car
roll after long illness.
Mr.. HERE was a remarkable and
versatile man in many respects. He
entered with enthusiasm into every
public interest of his home city and
yet found time to conduct his dual
business in a satisfactory manner.
The Review has been unable at this
time to obtain he complete particu-
lars of Mr.. Here's life. He was
born at Hackettstown, N. j., and was
forty-one years of age. For many
years his home was at Fremont, Neb.
He first located in West Side about
eight years ago and he at one be-
canoe popular with all the people.
He was elected mayor and filled that
position most acceptable to the time
of his death. AS editor of the Jour-
nal he kept pace with the growth and
prosperity of the city.
He was republican and took ac-
tive part in the politics of his pre-
cinct, the county and the state. Mr..
HERE was great-hearted, whole
souled man, whose CHEEKY, helpful
ways endeared him to all. He leaves
wife and three children, Robert,
Rose and Maude, to mourn his un.
timely death The funeral services
were held today in Fremont, 8
number of the prominent citizens Of
West Side were in attendance upor

The patriotic societies of Denison,
the G. A. R., the w. R. C. and the
S. of v. held memorable meeting on
Friday night at which time the fol-
lowing officers were installed:
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1906-01-18

Mr.. A. ]. Bond acted as installing
officer for the Grand Army and also
as chairman of the meeting, while Mrs
J.B. Romans installed the officers of
the Relief Corps.
The hall was crowded to its utmos
capacity and closest attention was
paid to the solemn and beautiful
ritual Of the installation work.
The business of the evening having
been transacted the program opened
with song by number of little boys
who marched and sang, Tramp,
tramp, tramp, The Boys are March
ing,' with such spirit that they were
enthusiastically encored. They were
drilled by Mrs. Lou F. Marlin who
deserves much credit for her skill and
perseverance. Supper intervened-the
regulation Grand Army supper, of
coffee, beans, sandwiches, pickles and
doughnuts and the program was re-
sumed.
Mr.. Charles Bullock spoke with his
inimitable humor and drollery and
brought down the house." Prof.
w. C. Van Ness told interesting
stories of Ohio life before and during
the war, dwelling on the feats of the
Underground Railway
Prof. z. T. Hawk gave magnifi-
cent eulogy on the soldier and his
work. 1t was brilliant grafton

schools of Denison would do their par
to honor the old soldiers and to carr.

w. Meyers spoke of General John A
Logan after whom post and corps ar

Rev. w. E. Bryce was called upol
but owing to the lateness of the hou
he declined to make any extended re
marks, contenting himself with a
anecdote that was very pat" an
which provoked much merriment.
