t. *1$®!!$$$$* r APT THE DENISON REVIEW, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 19, 1911. PAGE THREE JOHN CAREY TO LEAVE DEMSON (?) Is Reported to Have Purchased Fine Home at Guthrie, Oklahoma, and Will Improve It. LOSS TO DEMOCRATIC PARTY Mr. Carey, However, Says He Will Re- main in Denison—Bought Prop- erty as Speculation. Is Denison and Crawford county to lose John T. Carey as a citizen? Is the democratic party of Craw- ford county to lose one of its most loyal supporters and office holders? Is the democratic party of Denison to lose a member who has proven to be the only sure -to-be-elected candi- date for mayor the party ever placed in nomination? Mr. Carey says no, but if the at- tached interesting news item be true, we predict that all this will not only come to pass, but that the city of Guthrie, and the congressional district in which it is located, will, within five years, have a representative in the lower house of the United States con- gress ir. the person of John T. Carey. John has so long been identified with the game of politics that should he eventually decide to remove to Oklahoma he will soon be at home at the dealers' table, and will readily be- come a leader and candidate and the Carey method of winning will assert itself. Mr. Carey spent some time the past winter in Oklahoma, visiting old-time friends and looking over the country aud has bought some land, but as to disposing of his holdings here, and moving to Guthrie, he says there is no truth in the statement and he merely bought the land as a speculation. He has many friends in Crawford who •would regret his removal from the county. The following news item will be read with interest by his friends: BECOMES GUTHRIE BOOSTER Iowa Capitalist Attracted by Min- eral Wells. EX-MAYOR OF DENISON BUYS KELLER PROPERTY After Seeing Oklahoma Towns, He Purchases a Home Here. Guthrie Daily Leader: John T. Carey, a wealthy citizen of Denison, Iowa, and for eight years mayor of that city, is preparing to close up his residence there and to remove to Ok- lahoma and build a fine country home near Guthrie. He expects to return here in a short while to commence •work. Mr. Carey has bought the Keller place, three miles southeast of the city. The consideration is understood to have been $4,000. The deal was made largely through the instrumen- tality of Ed C. Peterson, a long-time friend of Mr. Carey. Finding that Mr. Carey wished to locate in a favorable clime, the big clothing man put him next to the finest residential point in the southwest and located him on a high-grade place. The Keller place contains thirty acres. There is a rolling hill that will lend itself admirably to the location of a fine home. There is plenty of woodland and water and the place is easy of access from the city and is close to the main roads. It is the in- tention of the newcomer to make the home one of the greatest in attractive- ness and comfort. Mr. Carey has long been a leader in Denison and has been repeatedly honored by his neighbors. He has a large business interest and is closing them out in order to retire. The lo- cation of Mr. Carey here may be ascribed to two agencies—Ed Peterson and the Guthrie mineral water. Mr. Carey dropped in here for a visit and after he looked over the city and its surroundings and sampled the miner- al water, he called off negotiations with about half the real estate agents in Oklahoma and bought the Keller farm without hesitation. He had vis- ited Muskogee, Oklahoma City, El Reno and other places, but unhesi- tatingly chose Guthrie. •«$• «$» «j» «$» «$» «$• <g» «$» «g» •}» «!» * SUBSCRIBE FOR THE REVIEW OLD TIMES RECALLED. The Boys and Girls of the Seventies Met in Denison Last Week for a Reunion. In the days of 1874-1877, when the Baptist church stood on Main street, on lots now occupied by the Norris shoe store, and its neighbor build- ings, the old M. E. church, a long, low structure, fronted south and W. A. McHenry was conducting the bank in rooms over the now Hub clothing store, there was a group of boys and girls who went to parties, coasted down hill, had picnics in Grace Park, and vied with each other in the west brick school building under the tutor- ship of Professor Z. T. Hawk. In the group were: Lucy Miles, Carrie Plimp- ton, Laura Purdy, Carrie Fegtley, Mat- tie Wagoner, Nellie Cowdry, Zora Palmer, among the girls, and Frank King, Marcus Jones, Charles Meyers, Wheeler and Frank Lesher were some of the boys. All are mar- ried, some are dead, and oth- ers scattered in South Dakota, Ne- braska, Kansas and California. Once, many years ago. there was a group picture made by Mr. Trone in his lit- tle gallery, which stood about where Mr. Berg has his jewelry store now, which included about a dozen of the above named. The print is highly prized by the survivors and their friends. This week there has been a reas- sembling of five of the girls and three of the boys at Denison: Mrs. Carrie Plimpton-Fegtley, who came from Des Moines; Mrs. Laura Purdy-Slocuni came from Mitchell, S. D.; Mrs. Carrie Fegtley-McCutcheon, from Nevada, Iowa; and these, together with Mrs. Lucy Miles-Jones, Mrs. Mattie Shaw Van, M. E. Jones, Mr. Lesher and Chas Meyehs were entertained at the homes of Mr. Jones and Mr. Meyers on two evenings last week. Such a time they have had, looking at pic- tures, which called up a hundred for- gotten memories, jokes and stories were told on each other, those who have passed on through death, or who were not present, were often men- tioned. At the Jones home a kodak picture was made. It is needless to say that the gathering of old friends will ever be a landmark in their lives. It is a little late now to mention the necessity of treating seed grain for smut, because by the time this is read a great deal of the grain will be in the ground. It is a job that is easily and quickly done though and in many cases pays nearly as well as the use of the fanning mill. DOING THEIR DUTY. Scores of Denison Readers Are Learn- ing the Duty of the Kidneys. To filter the blood is the kidneys' duty. When they fail to do this the kid- neys are sick. Backache and many kidney ills fol. low; Urinary trouble, diabetes. Doan's Kidney Pills cure them all. Denison people endorse our claim. Mrs. W. Bottger, 41G W. Vine St., Denison, Iowa, says: "I know how ef- fective Doan's Kidney Pills are as they have been used in our family with great benefit. I gave them to one of my children who was troubled by a kidney weakness and great relief was received.

CELLAR RELIEVED OFTREASURE Excavators at Iowa City Find Gold and Human Skull While Dig- ging in Cellar of Building. BURIED DURING INDIAN SCARE J. J. Barborka, Father of Jewelryman Barborka, Owns Property Where Treasure Is Found. Master Herbert Reichardt, the son of J. D. Reichardt, the well-known con- fectioner and amateur actor, is cred- ited with an extraordinary find—a rusty pot, containing $445 in gold and other coins. The pot was dug up in the Reichardt cellar under the store. Father Has Wealth. Mr. Reichardt, Sr. has a pocket full of gold pieces, $10 and $20 coins, and the remainder of the treasure trove, described in thrilling phraseology by the Reichardts, is on display in the Reichardt window, and great crowds are gathered there, inspecting the shining shekels and the rusty pot, with its filling of clay. Story of Find. The story of the find is related by Mr. Reichardt as follows: "We are excavating in the Dubuque street cellar, under the old Barborka building, and Herbert dug up the pot, which you see in our window today. It contained many gold coins, firm- ly imbedded in the clay, and also cop- per coins, indistinguishablv corroded, so we cannot tell the denominations, years of mintage, or even the country in which they are coined. Father Shows Gold. "Here are some of the coins contain- ed in the pot unearthed by Herbert" —and the proud father illustrated his words with a handful of gleaming gold pieces, which he jingled merrily in his outstretched palm. "The total amount in the pot," he continued, "is exactly $445." Indian Skull and Stump. "The^coin pot was lying deep down near an old stump, and the skull of an Indian—or so the piece of cranium seems to us to be—lay near. "Herbert dug up the skull and the pot nearly at the same time. Did Pioneer Die There? "We are in doubt how the money got there. Maybe a pioneer died while fleeing from Indians or un- known terrors, way back 70 to SO years ago, when these streets were merely prairie and woodland. Strange Claims Made. "Already one young man lias ap- peared, alleging that his uncle disap- peared many decades ago. when the Indians infested this parr of Iowa, and they were pursuing him. it is be- lieved, when he crawled into the woods and died there beside the old stump, after burying his rich hoard in the virgin Iowa forest. Who Will Own It? "Who will own the treasure trove? is a problem that is vexing a lot of people now. "Some claim it will go to my box- as the finder; others allege it may be demanded by the heirs of the man who disappeared: and still others claim that J. J. Barborka. the veteran jeweler, ,\vho owns the building, may demand it, under the law. "I have also heard it alleged that the old English 'treasure^ trove' law obtains here, and that, under that law the United States government 'or the state of Towa may demand the coin, aside from a fractional part, say $100 or so, to he awarded to Iler- ert as the finder." Everybody Excited. In the meantime, everybody is excit- ed over the story of remarkable dis- play of the rusty pot: age-old contents and the stirring story told by the Reichardts. The street luis been jammed in front of the store by eager onlookers all day.—Iowa City Press. What's The Difference? CHET L. SMITHIt 1 j A big fireworks factory which has recently gone broke attributes its fail- ure to the adoption of sane methods of celebrating the Fourth of July. The dr.ngerous cracker and explosives are barred in a great many towns as are certain contrivances and combustibles with potential probabilities of fires and with poential probabilities of fires and loss. So the market being restricted the firm fails. However, few people are sordid enough to insist that children be sacri- ficed in thousands annually that the fireworks manufacturer may prosper. The dangerous methods must go. If tiie manufacturer must go with tliem there may be regret but scarcely pro- test.—Council Bluffs Nonpareil. Xext to the fanning mill the drag cart is perhaps the worst enemy of weeds. Xot that, it is much of a cul- tivator. but where one is owned it often causes the farmer to put in that extra lick with the drag that repre- sents the difference between a fair and an excellent job of puttings in small grain or preparing a. sewl-bed for corn. LONG TERM FARM LEASES. Robert Miller of Mineola has rented a 257-acre farm for ten years at $1,000 per yer. This is the beginning in Iowa of longer term farm leases. And thelong term lease is a decided improvement over the short term. It makes it worth while for the tenant to conserve the resources of the soil. He will be the beneficiary of any effort put forth to make the land capable of raising bet- ter crops. The present plan of one, two or three year term leases with the prospect of a move at the end of the period is the strongest kind of an incentive to the renter toruin rather than farm the farm. The next twenty-five years in Iowa will witness a considerable develop- ment of the problem of the relations between landlord and tenant. Land has become so valuable that it must yield larger returns in order to pay divi- dends on the investment. Rents are going higher. This is almost as in- evitable as the law of gravity. On the Island of Guernsey, a rich dairying country, land rents as high as $50 per acre. This, of course, is extreme. But we are destined to a steady advance in Iowa and elsewhere along this line and toward this standard, and it will re- quire better farming to meet this dual problem of preserving fertility and in- creasing yields to a point that will pay higher rents and still yield a profit to the tiller of the soil. The long term farm lease is one of the necessary steps in this forward movement. The interests of the ten- ant and the landlord in the material improvement of the farm must be made identical.—Cuoncil Bluffs Non- pareil. The Camera And Civic Pride. Kansas City tried the schemc of photographing ugly places in the town as a means of improving the city's appearance and met with some good results. Now Los Angeles is trying it. The pictures are given publicity, thus exposing to all the people or a large number of them, the most tangi- ble unsightliness and the need for do- ing away with it, says an exchange. On the theory that "seeing is believ- ing," this ought to be a potent factor in the popular enterprise of city beau- tifying, at least as much so as the con- stant. reiteration in print or public speech that such places exist. It is possible to make the camera a very useful instrument in this work of improving the city's physical appear- ance, if there is another vital element to support it. All the dark and ugly spots and places in an entire city might be photographed aud exposed to the view of the entire citizen and yet accomplish no gobd at all unless those citizens had enough local civic pride to respond to the appeal. It is not often, if ever necessary, in a city of ordinary size to go to the trou- ble of publishing photographic views of eyesores. Most of the people know of their existance. If they have not seen them, they must have read about V'V^K/a,. BY THE TRUST \ou'll be de- lighted with the re- sults of Calumet Halting Powder.

JOHN CAREY TO LEAVE DEMSON (?)

Is Reported to Have Purchased Fine Home at Guthrie, Oklahoma, and

Will Improve It.

LOSS TO DEMOCRATIC PARTY

Mr. Carey, However, Says He Will Re­main in Denison—Bought Prop­

erty as Speculation.

Is Denison and Crawford county to lose John T. Carey as a citizen?

Is the democratic party of Craw­ford county to lose one of its most loyal supporters and office holders?

Is the democratic party of Denison to lose a member who has proven to be the only sure-to-be-elected candi­date for mayor the party ever placed in nomination?

Mr. Carey says no, but if the at­tached interesting news item be true, we predict that all this will not only come to pass, but that the city of Guthrie, and the congressional district in which it is located, will, within five years, have a representative in the lower house of the United States con­gress ir. the person of John T. Carey.

John has so long been identified with the game of politics that should he eventually decide to remove to Oklahoma he will soon be at home at the dealers' table, and will readily be­come a leader and candidate and the Carey method of winning will assert

itself. Mr. Carey spent some time the past

winter in Oklahoma, visiting old-time friends and looking over the country aud has bought some land, but as to disposing of his holdings here, and moving to Guthrie, he says there is no truth in the statement and he merely bought the land as a speculation. He has many friends in Crawford who •would regret his removal from the county. The following news item will be read with interest by his friends:

BECOMES GUTHRIE BOOSTER

Iowa Capitalist Attracted by Min­eral Wells.

EX-MAYOR OF DENISON BUYS KELLER PROPERTY

After Seeing Oklahoma Towns, He Purchases a Home Here.

Guthrie Daily Leader: John T. Carey, a wealthy citizen of Denison, Iowa, and for eight years mayor of that city, is preparing to close up his residence there and to remove to Ok­lahoma and build a fine country home near Guthrie. He expects to return here in a short while to commence •work.

Mr. Carey has bought the Keller place, three miles southeast of the city. The consideration is understood to have been $4,000. The deal was made largely through the instrumen­tality of Ed C. Peterson, a long-time friend of Mr. Carey. Finding that Mr. Carey wished to locate in a favorable clime, the big clothing man put him next to the finest residential point in the southwest and located him on a high-grade place.

The Keller place contains thirty acres. There is a rolling hill that will lend itself admirably to the location of a fine home. There is plenty of woodland and water and the place is easy of access from the city and is close to the main roads. It is the in­tention of the newcomer to make the home one of the greatest in attractive­ness and comfort.

Mr. Carey has long been a leader in Denison and has been repeatedly honored by his neighbors. He has a large business interest and is closing them out in order to retire. The lo­cation of Mr. Carey here may be ascribed to two agencies—Ed Peterson and the Guthrie mineral water. Mr. Carey dropped in here for a visit and after he looked over the city and its surroundings and sampled the miner­al water, he called off negotiations with about half the real estate agents in Oklahoma and bought the Keller farm without hesitation. He had vis­ited Muskogee, Oklahoma City, El Reno and other places, but unhesi­tatingly chose Guthrie.

OLD TIMES RECALLED.

The Boys and Girls of the Seventies Met in Denison Last Week

for a Reunion.

In the days of 1874-1877, when the Baptist church stood on Main street, on lots now occupied by the Norris shoe store, and its neighbor build­ings, the old M. E. church, a long, low structure, fronted south and W. A. McHenry was conducting the bank in rooms over the now Hub clothing store, there was a group of boys and girls who went to parties, coasted down hill, had picnics in Grace Park, and vied with each other in the west brick school building under the tutor­ship of Professor Z. T. Hawk. In the group were: Lucy Miles, Carrie Plimp­ton, Laura Purdy, Carrie Fegtley, Mat-tie Wagoner, Nellie Cowdry, Zora Palmer, among the girls, and Frank King, Marcus Jones, Charles Meyers, Wheeler and Frank Lesher were some of the boys. All are mar­ried, some are dead, and oth­ers scattered in South Dakota, Ne­braska, Kansas and California. Once, many years ago. there was a group picture made by Mr. Trone in his lit­tle gallery, which stood about where Mr. Berg has his jewelry store now, which included about a dozen of the above named. The print is highly prized by the survivors and their friends.

This week there has been a reas­sembling of five of the girls and three of the boys at Denison: Mrs. Carrie Plimpton-Fegtley, who came from Des Moines; Mrs. Laura Purdy-Slocuni came from Mitchell, S. D.; Mrs. Carrie Fegtley-McCutcheon, from Nevada, Iowa; and these, together with Mrs. Lucy Miles-Jones, Mrs. Mattie Shaw Van, M. E. Jones, Mr. Lesher and Chas Meyehs were entertained at the homes of Mr. Jones and Mr. Meyers on two evenings last week. Such a time they have had, looking at pic­tures, which called up a hundred for­gotten memories, jokes and stories were told on each other, those who have passed on through death, or who were not present, were often men­tioned. At the Jones home a kodak picture was made. It is needless to say that the gathering of old friends will ever be a landmark in their lives.

It is a little late now to mention the necessity of treating seed grain for smut, because by the time this is read a great deal of the grain will be in the ground. It is a job that is easily and quickly done though and in many cases pays nearly as well as the use of the fanning mill.

CELLAR RELIEVED OFTREASURE

Excavators at Iowa City Find Gold and Human Skull While Dig­

ging in Cellar of Building.

BURIED DURING INDIAN SCARE

J. J. Barborka, Father of Jewelryman Barborka, Owns Property Where

Treasure Is Found.

Master Herbert Reichardt, the son of J. D. Reichardt, the well-known con­fectioner and amateur actor, is cred­ited with an extraordinary find—a rusty pot, containing $445 in gold and other coins. The pot was dug up in the Reichardt cellar under the store.

Father Has Wealth. Mr. Reichardt, Sr. has a pocket full

of gold pieces, $10 and $20 coins, and the remainder of the treasure trove, described in thrilling phraseology by the Reichardts, is on display in the Reichardt window, and great crowds are gathered there, inspecting the shining shekels and the rusty pot, with its filling of clay.

Story of Find. The story of the find is related by

Mr. Reichardt as follows: "We are excavating in the Dubuque

street cellar, under the old Barborka building, and Herbert dug up the pot, which you see in our window today.

It contained many gold coins, firm­ly imbedded in the clay, and also cop­per coins, indistinguishablv corroded, so we cannot tell the denominations, years of mintage, or even the country in which they are coined.

Father Shows Gold. "Here are some of the coins contain­

ed in the pot unearthed by Herbert" —and the proud father illustrated his words with a handful of gleaming gold pieces, which he jingled merrily in his outstretched palm.

"The total amount in the pot," he continued, "is exactly $445."

Indian Skull and Stump. "The^coin pot was lying deep down

near an old stump, and the skull of an Indian—or so the piece of cranium seems to us to be—lay near.

"Herbert dug up the skull and the pot nearly at the same time.

Did Pioneer Die There? "We are in doubt how the money

got there. Maybe a pioneer died while fleeing from Indians or un­known terrors, way back 70 to SO years ago, when these streets were merely prairie and woodland.

Strange Claims Made. "Already one young man lias ap­

peared, alleging that his uncle disap­peared many decades ago. when the Indians infested this parr of Iowa, and they were pursuing him. it is be­lieved, when he crawled into the woods and died there beside the old stump, after burying his rich hoard in the virgin Iowa forest.

Who Will Own It? "Who will own the treasure trove?

is a problem that is vexing a lot of people now.

"Some claim it will go to my box-as the finder; others allege it may be demanded by the heirs of the man who disappeared: and still others claim that J. J. Barborka. the veteran jeweler, ,\vho owns the building, may demand it, under the law.

"I have also heard it alleged that the old English 'treasure^ trove' law obtains here, and that, under that law the United States government 'or the state of Towa may demand the coin, aside from a fractional part, say $100 or so, to he awarded to Iler-ert as the finder."

Everybody Excited. In the meantime, everybody is excit­

ed over the story of remarkable dis­play of the rusty pot: age-old contents and the stirring story told by the Reichardts. The street luis been jammed in front of the store by eager onlookers all day.—Iowa City Press.

What's The Difference?

CHET L. SMITHIt1 j

A big fireworks factory which has recently gone broke attributes its fail­ure to the adoption of sane methods of celebrating the Fourth of July. The dr.ngerous cracker and explosives are barred in a great many towns as are certain contrivances and combustibles with potential probabilities of fires and with poential probabilities of fires and loss. So the market being restricted the firm fails.

However, few people are sordid enough to insist that children be sacri­ficed in thousands annually that the fireworks manufacturer may prosper. The dangerous methods must go. If tiie manufacturer must go with tliem there may be regret but scarcely pro­test.—Council Bluffs Nonpareil.

Xext to the fanning mill the drag cart is perhaps the worst enemy of weeds. Xot that, it is much of a cul­tivator. but where one is owned it often causes the farmer to put in that extra lick with the drag that repre­sents the difference between a fair and an excellent job of puttings in small grain or preparing a. sewl-bed for corn.

LONG TERM FARM LEASES.

Robert Miller of Mineola has rented a 257-acre farm for ten years at $1,000 per yer.

This is the beginning in Iowa of longer term farm leases. And thelong term lease is a decided improvement over the short term. It makes it worth while for the tenant to conserve the resources of the soil. He will be the beneficiary of any effort put forth to make the land capable of raising bet­ter crops. The present plan of one, two or three year term leases with the prospect of a move at the end of the period is the strongest kind of an incentive to the renter toruin rather than farm the farm.

The next twenty-five years in Iowa will witness a considerable develop­ment of the problem of the relations between landlord and tenant. Land has become so valuable that it must yield larger returns in order to pay divi­dends on the investment. Rents are going higher. This is almost as in­evitable as the law of gravity. On the Island of Guernsey, a rich dairying country, land rents as high as $50 per acre. This, of course, is extreme. But we are destined to a steady advance in Iowa and elsewhere along this line and toward this standard, and it will re­quire better farming to meet this dual problem of preserving fertility and in­creasing yields to a point that will pay higher rents and still yield a profit to the tiller of the soil.

The long term farm lease is one of the necessary steps in this forward movement. The interests of the ten­ant and the landlord in the material improvement of the farm must be made identical.—Cuoncil Bluffs Non­pareil.

The Camera And Civic Pride.

Kansas City tried the schemc of photographing ugly places in the town as a means of improving the city's appearance and met with some good results. Now Los Angeles is trying it. The pictures are given publicity, thus exposing to all the people or a large number of them, the most tangi­ble unsightliness and the need for do­ing away with it, says an exchange. On the theory that "seeing is believ­ing," this ought to be a potent factor in the popular enterprise of city beau­tifying, at least as much so as the con­stant. reiteration in print or public speech that such places exist.

It is possible to make the camera a very useful instrument in this work of improving the city's physical appear­ance, if there is another vital element to support it. All the dark and ugly spots and places in an entire city might be photographed aud exposed to the view of the entire citizen and yet accomplish no gobd at all unless those citizens had enough local civic pride to respond to the appeal. It is not often, if ever necessary, in a city of ordinary size to go to the trou­ble of publishing photographic views of eyesores. Most of the people know of their existance. If they have not seen them, they must have read about
