One Local Man Says It's Not a Gift
the City Should Give, But
Part Payment Of Big
Indebtedness.
GIVE THEM "A WELCOME
Suggestion is Made That Plans be
Perfected for Receiving Them
When They
Return. ~

'tkeoknk people should remember
that they are just paying off their
debt of gratitude to the boys who left
their work and went to the border to
protect them" Is the way one man ex-
pressed himself over the matter OF
giving Company L Christmas pres
ent. 1T isn't giving them something,
that we are doing. it's paying our debt
to the men who took our place and
who went there to protect us. They
didn't have to lay down their work
any more than the rest Of us did, and
they went in our places. Let US re-
member that and pay our debts to
these boys"
And when you come right down to
it this suggestion is really good one.
The boys who left Keokuk In June
didn't know where they were going,
nor what dangers were in front of
them, but they went And they stood
between keokuk people and danger.
They did something the rest OF US
didn't want to, and to them we owe
something.
Don't forget to pay your debt to
the boys who have been sweltering
down there on the border. Let's give
them a big Christmas present as part
payment on that debt. Subscriptions
can be left with The Gate City, l.. A.
Hamill or E. L. Williams.
The boys should be given as big
a send off when they come home as
when they left.

whv IL Keokuk?

Marshalltown Times-Republican
Down at the southeast corner of Iowa
the state line makes dive south from
the Des Moines river and encloses
Keokuk 1t came about thus: the
Usage Indians had ceded their lands
but the corner remained in posses
sion of the Sacs and was not TO be
ceded by another tribe. So the line
stopped at the channel Of the river.
This notch out of the corner of Mis-
souri, later became the Half Breed
Tract" when a delegation of Sac and
Fox chiefs after consulting with the
president of the United States coded
their lands to the state of Missouri
with an attached condition that the
small tract referred to above ''is lin
tended for the use Of the half breeds
belonging to the Sac and Fox nation"
1t is related in very interesting
series Of articles running in the Iowa
Journal Of History and Politics that
the white fathers of half breeds were
instrumental in securing the condition
and that the Indians themselves were
not particularly DESTROYS of the grant.
"Keeoku6," trading point in Iowa,
was the capital of the tract. 1t had
been started with the building of log
-.
surgeon at Fort Edwards on the ILL.,
nois side and a graduate of Edinburgh
university, sheltered his Indian wife
and five children. "Keeokuk" grew to
a village of about twenty Indian fam
flies grouped about store and trad
ing post of the American Fur COM
pany, and boosted tavern" The
tract belonged to forty-two half breeds
Considerable activity was created at
that point from the necessity Of un-
loading steamboats, below the rapids
and reloading them above.
Later the half breed tract was sur
veyed and divided among the claim
ants.
The articles referred to in the Iowa
historical journal are especially inter-
esting. Moreover the dates given illus
trate the rapid development of Iowa.
DR.. Muir, builder of the log cabin and
parent of the first half breeds of the
tract, died at 'Keeolluk' as Asiatic
cholera in 1882. Men are alive in
Iowa who can recall that date. Even
his death and its cause is historical Of
the epidemic of cholera which swept
the Mississippi valley in that year.
