THE NAMES ON THE LIST.
Manson Democrat
The best answer to the charge of
lack of loyalty to the government by
the German Americans is found in the
roster OF men who have enlisted as
volunteers In the national guard the
regular army and navy in the recruit
ing stations at Fort Dodge. 1t contains
the names OF voss, Schultz, Rosendahl,
Reitz frost. Weiss. zuerrer Hecht,
Schoon. Wise, Carstens, Breiholtz
Wiegrefe, Steyer and others. The
closest the men who bear these names
come to being blue bellied Yankees Is
that they were born in the United
States, while 1t is a ten-to-o one guess
that their fathers and mothers were
born in Germany. The Scandinavians
are well represented by the names OF
Johnson. Swanson. Larson. Oeson.
Isaacson. Thorsud, Gustafson, BEL
lund. Hanson, Helgren, Rude, and 9TH
er cognomens that stamp them as sons
Of Scandinavian fathers and mothers.
A large number Of men. enough OF
them to hold the Scandinavians level

ants OF the ancient kings OF Ireland
with names such as Ryan, ONeill.
O'Boyle. McCarty, Ford, Healy, Dom
nelly. Colligan. Barton, Cavanaugh,
OLeary. Mccain. Darling, Noonan.
Murphy and Doyle. Among the other
names is the good old English name OF
Arnold and the Scotch cognomen OF
Locke. The preponderance OF Ger
man. Scandinavian and Irish names Is
accounted for by the fact that those
peoples were the first settlers OF this
part OF Iowa and are In the majority
