July Fourth in Iowa in 1886.

"You will find us a Heterogeneous
mass of seven or eight hundred meet
ng together on the fourth day of July,
1885," says Lucius H. Langworthy in
a lecture on the early history of Du-
buque, which was reprinted BY the
State Historical Society of Iowa sever
al years ago. 1T was Monday the fif-
ty-ninth of our national independence,
and the birthday of Wisconsin terri
tory; a day celebrated in Dubuque
with great eclat, both on account Of
the national recollection it gave rise
to, and the independent position we
should thenceforth enjoy under a
separate territorial organization from
Michigan to which we were previous
.ly united.
"The newly appointed Governor,
Gen. Henry Dodge, was invited to be
present, and public dinner was ten
dered to him. He had been our leader
through two Indian wars, and was now
governor of the territory and superin-
tendent of the various Indian nations
in the northwest. Accordingly speech
es and. patriotism were the order Of
the day and at night music and dane
ing" ~

The three first days of July on
which the battle of Gettysburg was
won and lost, will be given over 10
the "reminiscences of that battle. July
4th will formally seal that forgiveness
which long ago was granted. The hat.
red which inspired the onslaughts OF
'63 has been transmitted into friend

will tell with pride how Geo. Meade's
hardened veterans withstood them at
Little Round Top, and the boys of the

he watched the confederate lines
swept away in the most glorious
charge in all history.
Such will be the meeting Of the
north and south.

Outlaws in Early Iowa.

"In spite of the general good char.
acter of the early settlers of Iowa. y
says Prof. Frank H. Carver, who is
preparing a history of county govern
ment in Iowa under the direction of
the State Historical Society of Iowa,
there came into the community many
desperate characters. The chief
crimes committed were thieving, the
sheltering of thieves with their stol7
en- property, cOunterfeiting of money,
and the passing of the same. A regu.
lar organization existed among these
outlaws covering a vast territory ex.
tending from northwestern Ohio
southern Michigan and northern In.
diana westward into the newly settled
territory of Iowa. Stations existed
throughout the whole of the above
area at which stolen goods were re.
ceived and sold. With the proverbial
honor which exists among thieves,
the members of this organization were
continually deadlocking juries, swear.
ing to false alibis and committing
wholesale perjury until it was prac.
tically impossible to bring any of them
to justice in the ordinary courts. Tn.
der these circumstances it is no Won
der that the better element of the
community became desperate and took
the law into their own hands"

nent of Deniscn Resident.

From week to week, from year to
year, there have been appearing in
these columns statements made by
neighbors, which we have all read
with gerat interest, and many of us
with great profit. But what we want
to know is, do they stand the great
est test of all-the test of time? Here
is conclusive evidence on this point
from a Denison man:
M. l.. McElwain, veterinary sur
geon, 223 E. Vine ST., Denison, Iowa,
says: 81 never used another kidney
remedy as effective as DOan's Kidney
Pills. l suffered intensely from lum-
bago and found it almost impossible
to stoop. Doan's Kidney Pills, pro-
cured from the Lamborn Drug Co.,

tiveness in my back and removed all
the other annoyances caused by my
kidneys. l am strong endorser of

The care worn woman in the humble
home on the far western claim glances

too, is looking for the same paper With
the same little red label on it. They
scan every item-the man of gold and

dingy walls and the gnaW OF want,

Up to County Supervisors.

Des Moines, June 30-The whole
responsibility for the care and treat.
ment of INDECENT persons suffering
with pulmonary tuberculosis is now
squarely placed upon county boards of
supervisors. This was accomplished
whom last winter the legislature en-
acted law by which boards of su-
pervisors were authorized to make
adequate provision for the care and
treatment of persons suffering with
this disease. 1t is recognized that
hospital care of this class of individ-
uals is the only proper method by
which to control the spread Of their
dreadful infection. The people are
thoroughly aroused to this necessity
and are demanding of the men invest
ed with this responsibility that some
thing be done.
The law is plain. 1t authorizes the
county boards to either provide local
hospitals or to arrange with institu.
tions already in operation for the
proper care of tuberculous sick.
Boards may expend $500 per week
per patient so treated. The law is re.
garded as most beneficial and every
where, we'll informed people are de-
handing that supervisors shall ex-
anime carefully: into the question. A
! curspry investigation reveals the fact
that there are few cities in the state
which do not have number of adj
vanced consumptives who need i'm.
mediate hospital care. They are q
menace to the entire community and
humanity demands that they shall be
properly treated. 1t would be we'll II
intelligent men and women formed
themselves into groups to study the
whole question of the control and re-
lief of tuberculosis and its great val
ue to humanity. It would be we'll to
communicate at once with the depart
ment on tuberculosis regarding the
matter. 1t may be interesting to
know that quite a number of boards
of supervisors are planning to carry
out the law.

GETTYS BURG.

One of the greatest reunions OF old
soldiers ever witnessed will take place
at Gettysburg this week, when the ex-
ercises commemorating the fiftieth an
niversary of the battle of Gettysburg
will be held.
Fifty thousand men with an aver
age age of Y years will gather on the
spot where they once gathered in
deadly conflict and celebrate and re-
joice that the stars and stripes still
covers US all. There will be old men
of feeble step, old men gray haired,
old men with one arm missing, old
men with one leg missing, old men will
meet with tear-stained eyes, who still
see the glories OF the High Water
Mark when Pickett charged, or heard
the boom of cannon and the crack OF
musketry amid the rocks of the Devils
Den. They will meet from all sections
of the country-north, south, east and
west Every organization that took
part in the great battle will be repre-
scented and manN it is feared, will die
almost as their comrades did in their
glorious prime half century ago.
The government and the states OF
the union have provided means to en-
able the old soldiers to again meet
and review the days when all were in
their twenty-odd years of age and en-
dured the privations and horrors OF
war. The records show that the aver
age age of the men who will partici-
pate in this reunion is Y years. Each
month takes it's toll of more than
5000 as is shown in the pension office.
These men who for the most part have
taken life comparatively easy of late
years, will undergo inevitable and
strength-sapping hardships. Condi-
tions that would have been luxury SO
years ago may prove fatal to hun
dreds at y years of age. Although

THE HOME NEWSPAPER.

The addition of modern typeset-
ting machine to the Bulletin office is
an improvement that has been needed
and one that will greatly facilitate
that newspaper in handling it's news
matter and other work.
The two printing offices, the Bulle-
tin and the Review, are now fully
equipped and amply able to handle all
classes of work We doubt if there
are two offices in the same town in the
state having better facilities than the
two Denison Offices. An outlay of
over $4,000 is represented by the
two offices in equipment and build
ings. More help at much better
wages is employed by the two Offices
than will be found in most cities of
considerable larger size than Denison,
and the weekly expenditure runs in
to hundreds of dollars. This money is
practically all spent right here at
home and the benefit derived is no
small item.
We are sometimes lead to speculate
as to whether the efforts of Denison
newspapers are fully appreciated by
the average citizen, and whether the
business man ever stops to consider
the value a newspaper adds to his
town and his business. The Review
has no complaint to make as to it's
patronage. and we believe this is also
true of the Bulletin, but frankly there
is absolutely no need of business
man or firm sending away for his or
it's printing, of whatever nature, Eth
er office is capable of handling the
work and when all cost is considered
time, freight and express-the cost
in most cases is less at home than
that paid to the outsider.
An item going the rounds of the
newspaper offices is timely and refers
to the home paper.
"When the citizen is gathered to
his fathers it is the country weekly
that extols wreaths of flowers upon his
bier and consols those left behind. It
records the arrival of babyhood and
tells of the bright prospects that sur

out on the journey of matrimony.

THE PROFITS IN WOOL.

Numerous newspapers over the
country have been giving considerable
space to the profits made by the wool
growers or sheep raisers, and are ad-
vocating free wool. To get right down
to the meat of the question, is it the
wool grower or the middle man who
is making the profit? From the
Helena MONTY Independent we clip
the following item regarding profits
of the middleman:
Frank Edwards, of Boston and
Philadelphia, who is known to many
Montana wool growers as good buy
err has been awarded verdict of
$154,216 as a balance due him from
his employers, who were to pay him
10 per cent Of the net profits of. the
business i'm America, based on the &C
tual cost price of wool to the firm. Be-
sides, this commission Edwards re-
ceived a salary of $4,000 per annum.
"The term of service during which
the disputes arose which has just dis
closed the profits of wool buying, was
from 1897 to 1908, about eleven years
During this. time, Mr.. Edwards drew
s., 900 a year and expenses and was tc
receive 10 per cent of the profit based
on the actual cost of the WOOL
"The court has awarded him $154,
PIG as his share of the profits, or ap
proximately 10 per cent Of the pr0ht'
of his wool buying. The total profits
of his operations would therefore ap
pear to be $1.542.16O in little les
than eleven years.
Those who knew Mr.. Edwards will
rejoice with him in the verdict. bu
they are reminded very fOrceful o
