Dear Sir: Barring fire,
act Of God, or earthquake Il don't
think that was an act of Cod. we ex-
pect to sail from Oakland on Friday of
his week. which will be the 18th.
That comes pretty near to being the
anniversary of the big quake, doesn't
it!
We are coming minus all interior
painting, and with the castings of our
big engine all smashed to smithereens:
but we're coming and that's the main
point. We expect to paint down there
and also to have the new engine cast
ings made in Honolulu. OF course,
you have a foundry there.
And as I am in an awful rush, get
ting ready to go, you will pardon this
brief notice that we are coming.
Naturally, I cannot tell you the day
Of arrival; but we sail on the 18th, all
things being equal-except the engine.
Pardon the typewriter, I am rushed
TO death.
Sincerely yours,
CHAIRMAN P. LONDON.

Old Settlers Meeting the 18th.
on the 18th of this month there
is to be an old settlers picnic about ut
q mile and half south OF the store
and postoffice at which time all the.
friends and neighbors are to meet
and have good time and many per-
sons Of note from distance are ex-
#pected to attend. Speeches by old
timers, social interchanges and the
customary exercises upon such ocs
casions will be the order Of the day.
Upon such occasions it is common
to ask: did men like joe Taylor,
Dan Williams and biz Mercer Re
alize the purport Of the work they.
were doing for the state in general
and the local section in particular,
when they settled in the Painted
Woods country and by their efforts
made possible the DEVELOPMENT Of so
vast a domain as these people did?'
Tt may be said by some that these
men did not foresee the great deyel-
opnent that was to follow and that
they put up a wager in game of
chance, Of which they knew but little
and cared less and for which they de
lserve but little credit, as others
would have gone into the wilderness
Land have made the settlement for the
adventure there is in it the same as
the dog chases the wolf or the rabbit

Painted Woods, N D., July a.!
Especial correspondence The
country along the Missouri river
west from Wilton and a few miles
south of Washburn is known as the
! Painted Woods country, and in In
dian history as "SThe Land of the
Painted Trees" This country was
for many years neutral territory in
which the Indian must not live and
In which if rowing band of Indians
OF one tribe should meet those of
another tribe, if not friendly, a battle
was sure to follow. And for years if
the Sioux were on war raid against
the Mandans or their associates, the
Grosventres or Aricarees, and were
passing through this country they
would hold war council and if !;
was decided to continue the cam.
paign they would paint themselves
and also, as sign of hostilities as
well as a taunt; would paint streaks
on the trees. Hence the name of the
country to the Indian was the land
of the painted trees and to the white
man became Painted Woods
This body Of timber was one of tbs
largest and had some OF the grandest
trees to be found for many hundreds
of miles along the Missouri river
And today large oaks, cottonwoods

the country. The latter two settled
near what is now Wogansport. Also
about this time M. G. Hagen came 20
the country. In 1876 u. Merry set
tied on the banks of the river just
below the mouth of Painted Woods
creek. This marked the limits of
the settlement as then made and ex-
tended twelve or fifteen mills along
the Missouri river. But when Taylor
Williams and Mercer first came to
the country the nearest neighbor was
on Sibley Island to the south and
Fort Stevenson on the north.
In 1879 Eric Danielson. Ole Hanson
and G. A. Danstrom came into the
settlement. Dec. 2, 1878, s. a. Peter
son put in a stock of merchandise
,, and has kept his store supplying the
people ever since. and as the country
became more settled he was appoint
ed postmaster and the postoffice OF
Painted Woods was established May
IA, 1879. Mr.. Peterson has served as
postmaster continuously ever since
making him one Of the oldest post,
| masters. as to service, in the state.
At this time, starting north from
the present site of Bismarck, the set
tiers were Oscar Ward, with possibly

The First Settlers. 4
The first actual settlers in the
country were Joseph H. Taylor, Daniel
Williams and William Mercer, who
came in 1869 and built homes in the
country. Some Of these men had
been through the country previously
on hunting and trapping expeditions
and saw the beauty of the surround
lings. sl 3s

Gus. The low spirited has no place in
a bank. Neither has the frivolous.
The man who works for bank is re-
spected in his community because it is
known that the character of his work
is important and particular He must
not only be direct and speedy in what
he does, he must not only be faithful
and constant ia all that he does, but
he must 90 a step further and do what
he does with viii. and good will
at that Zeal requires interest and en-
thusiasm. One of the troubles with
the bank clerk is that his senses and
his buoyancy are apt to be dulled by
the endless repetition OF details There
is no way to shirk it. No bank clerk
can so home at night with his work
