Harvey News: Elsewhere in these
columns reference has been made to
the cutting away of 20 acres of tim
Der On the head of the lower island
just below Harvey, by its present
owner, Mr.. Albert Cooper. of Des
Moines. There is little local his
tory of this particular parcel of land
that should not fail to be chronicled.
Previous to the first flood of 1851 it
was discovered with a heavy body of
timber, most of which was white
walnut, or more Familiarity, butter
nut" Many of these were large
enough to cut two saw logs to the
tree, and If those trees stood today
in the native i-vigor they would be
almost priceless in value. The flood
of 1851 which overlooked the entire
island, covered most of 1t with sew
eral feet of water. This flood re-
manned for several weeks, destroying
this entire belt of white walnut tim
Der and left it Standing to eventually
topple to the ground, moulder and
decay. The then owner of the tract,
Francis A.. Baker, not being able to
utilize this valuable lumber material,
as there was then no saw mills in
the country, to save ii from utter
waste bargained the most of 1t to one
Andrew Hines for an oldfashioned
pioneer long barreled rife. The said
Andrew Hines, who was a young
man, the son of widow, cut and
split this timber into rails and hauled
and fenced his mothers farm with
them, the farm lying over in Mahas-
ka county near the midway point be-
tween Bellefountaihe and Oskaloosa.

an early day was found on this island
Time had wrought wonderous changes

tire west can produce. Little do the
present ownerssy and inhabitants OF
this favored spot a generation which
has grown up since pioneer days, real
ize the wildness that once possessed
it, or the many stirring scenes that
are connected with its early history

Mai. John F. Lacey in the Dubuque
Telegraph: In the contest now on
hand Iowa is profoundly concerned
For many years William B. Allison

senate Of the United States.
He has been much more than this.
He has been the acknowledged leader
Of his party in that high body. His
name is interviewer in the entire net

ming in 1864, when Lees guns could
be heard at the capitol He has been
the trusted adviser of every republi-
tn etrusted adviser OF every republi-
can president from Lincoln to Roose-
welt. And he has been fair at all
times. He has won and held the re-
spect OF his political opponents dur.
ing his entire public career. When
an Iowa man looks down from the gal
lery of the senate the first face he
seeks is that OF Iowa's grand old man,
yes, the nations grand old man.
No more popular document could
have been issued in the last campaign
than a printed speech or letter an
nouncing that under no circumstances
would the speaker or writer do other
than support the Iowa Nestor, for
the senate.
Others may change. but the people
OF Iowa have not changed their minds
since 1906 on that subject.
Iowa holds proud and command

standing of the state that is most in

render her place at the head OF the
