Suexaspoan, Towa, March 18, —1In | the year 1833 7,000 Pottawattamios to | and | Corresd assembled at Chicago and eed move “‘beyond the Mississippi, Chicago was organized with 550 in- The of the habitants, numbering 20 voters, same year Lieut. regular army stream i Page county, and what was supposed tu be the same stream bears his namo to the presont day, although the monument, erected tohis memory, was many yeara ago destroyed by the Tndians. The forty-nine-year life ot Chicago has made it a wonderful city, and given it a history unparalleled in the annals of the world; and yet, fifty years ago, who would have ventured to predict its future, or dared to prophesy its greatness, even when it became noted as ‘‘the city on very low land,” or ‘‘the city of wooden buildings,” and still retaining its In- dian name ‘‘Onion¢” TEN YEARS AGO, when a railroad station was located here on the Red Oak Branch of the “Q,” and named Kair Oaks, it was little dreamed by the most enthusias- tic, that even an eventful decade would build here a city of two thou- sand on the banks of the beautiful Nishnabotany, €0 much resembling the Shenandoah of the Old Dominion, Tt is now understood that railroad en- terprise had intended to lend its strong assistance to another place down the road, and did make an effort in that direction, but the independ- ence of the ‘‘average American,” the ingenuity of the Yankee, and the en- terprise ,of the western farmer, were too much for even the fiat of corpora- tion plans, and so, despite the oppo- sition, and the probability of strong competition, a town company was organized, and the necessary steps taken to keep up with other villages in the various trades, professions and general business. Two years ago, when the Wabash road began to add its business by a crossing here, a new impetus was given to the general prosperity of the place, and th. im- portance and final success of the city was established, where before it had seemed like a venture, the efforts of a few business men hgainst “the field,” or “‘pluck against luck.” THE CITY is situated on the beautiful bottom lands, and the gentle slopes on the left or southeastern bank, and nearly a mile from the river, with its business houses mostly between the two rail- road stations. Its broad streets, fine brick blocks, manufacturing establish- ments, and trading houses, conven- iently located, form the nucleus of many large business enterprises, and has concentfted here a class of ener- getic business men whose ambition is as noticeable as their prudence and liberality; while along the varying slopes, and on the tops of the little hills, the clean residences, with fenced yards, shaven lawns, trained shrub- bery, and healthy shade trees, tho cemetery on the hill far to the cast, the fair ground, with its strong fence, long rows of stables and stalls, its painted buildings of ornamental de- signs, and 1ts grand stand and splen- did track, on the plains to the north- ward, all in full view from the resi- dence part of the city; thelongrows of fruit trees, flowers ard evergreens, in the nurseries to the eastward, the broad valley, dotted with farm houses, intersecting fences, and clustering herds of cattle, and the rising bluffs, still further on, give a completeness to the picture, and an order and good taste that commends itself to the wsthetic—offering, at the same time, indacements to capital and homes for the refined and cultured, GOOD SOCIETY, 0 often lacking in our younger towns is plainly predominant here, for no city in the state, probably, has a bet- ter atmosphere about its hotels, the entertainments for public instruction and amusement are of the higher and better classes, the order and quiet- ness on the Sabbath, and the almost universal attendance at the churches, arerigid and habitual, and I believe, the record of the city has been, never to allow a saloon in the place, for the early courts of the country occupied the principal part of their time in try- ing to wipe out the illegal traflio in liquor, andin sett ing diflicalties which arose through the use of strong drink, THE LOCATION, fifty miles from Omaha, by the Wabash, hiteen or twenty miles from any rival city, with two prominent railroads already doing a large busi- ness, a third one, the Humiston and Shenandoah, already graded and the track beihg Jaid between this and the county seat, and with the bright pros- pect of another westward, direct to incoln, Denver and the Pacific, with plenty of coal in the county and good building stone conveniently near; with good water power here, as well as on atl the numerous streams in the county, with rich farming lands bear- ing all the grains and fruits, surround ing it; a wealthy, intelligent and pro- gressive farming population occupying every foot of this productive prairie, where farms are worth from $30 to $060 per acre, and are fast being fenced in and divided up' into convenient fields, with school houses every mile or two, and the hard-earned money of the farmer, so otten spent for whisky, is invested in fat cattle, large barns, windmills, and cremeries, with a bea uful and healthy location and pure water, and with an energetic class of business men, whose influence and trade relations reach out to all the surrounding country, drawing in capi- tal, and strengthening every valuable enterprise, Shenandoah may well be called the future rival of 8t,” Joe and Kansas City, and the Chicago of Southwestern lowa, Buchanan, was drowned in a small THE SEVEN CHURCHES, have each good substantial church buildinge, and we suppose are in as | sociation, while the prospering a condition as the seven churches of Asia, to whom the Apos tle John wrote letters from the Isle of Patmos, The Methodists were the first in the field, and it is related that Rev, John Miller preached the first | sotmon in the depot; but the church [it “goes so fast. and | for years has become numerically stror the Sabbath school, under effi- | ] Intnck of farm implements, having [office of county superintendent, and | headquarters here and branch houses | scattered along the lines in this and {adjoining counties, and they report that they cannot begin to supply the demand for the “Maud 8" cultivator, Mr. Hoagland was me nherof the well-known agland & Co., Council Blufls, firm of H cient nl.umm‘vllwnt x;f \lx»:’ Kittio G.

M Chicagd as director, and 0 A con cort in the new opera house, as a part of the series of entertainments ich composed the grand opening of that institution, MISS MITCHELL is one of the fow ladies’ whose (uali. fications are of a superior order, and | whose good sente has led her intoa field of great usefulness and popular ity. She has a power over her classes that is possessed by few, and she dares and accomplishes, in many places, where most of the American “‘masters of the baton” have been de- feated. Ole Bull, sitting in Ins cas- tle overlooking his New Norway and Oleona colonies,” which he brought trom Scandinavia to Patter county, Pa., and musing over the financial failure, could play the mast sad and wild music ever heard by mortal, and clinging to his violin, went down to the gravo. Guisppe Verdi, who forty years ago, from his Milan home sent out his waves of song, aatil he del- uged the new musical world, and shook the orient with operas, gave up in dispaie at the death of his wife, long before he had attained a reputa- tion, and doubtless would have re- mained a failure, but for the friends who supplied him the necessary cour- age; but DMMiss Mitchell has silently and patiently toiled to support a fee- ble mother and youthful sisters, keep- ing the midnight watches until the dawn. She has studied her work to become master of her chosen profess. ion; and with the energy and business tact of an old commander, organizing her forces for the daily drill, while she studied the mumicry, the imita- tion, the advantage of position and posture, and the soul of music: and when she waved her hand and the chorus joined in the harmony of the triumphant Verdi, or returned to the fuot lights in response to an encore, she put her whole soul in the music and the paople went wild. THE SCHOOLS are fully up .to the times in modern progressive ideas; and as might be ex- pected of a school board of business capacity, that is determined to make the schools a success, they have just made an arrangement with Prof. C. H. Gurney, the present superinten- dent of the city achools and principal of the high school, to remain several years. The old two-story brick school house on the hill, with its “‘swallow nest” additions, has long since been outgrown, and the board will imme- diately take steps to build a suitable and respectable house, THE FIRE DEPARTMENT is organized with hook and ladder and hose companies, and the 600 or 800 feet to be attached to several force pumps, located in main streets, in business centres, make an effectiye, and it is believed, sufficient protec- tion against fire in the trading part of the civy. THE NEW OPERA HOUSE, just finished by Forton & West, is a large two-story brick, tastefully orna- mented, and occupied below for post- oftice and stores, and furnishing an opera house 5H0x90, with many of the improved and modern stage appoint- ments and extensive scenery, painted and arranged by the well known Chambers Bros., of Red Oak, who, with their families, assisted home talent in presenting ““Ten Nights in a Bar Room,” as the opening of the hall, which is the pride of the ecity, and will compare with any opera house in this part of the state when fully equiped, The Shenandoah LITERARY ASSOCIATION is composed of a few business men, who have formed a company for the purpose of securing a class of literary entertainments ot the higher order, and thereby avoiding the low grade of amusements of questionable morals: and they propose to vive a series of lectures and literary scientific exhibi- tions this spring and summer for the benefit of the churches, letting each chureh select its lecturer and have the praceeds, THE TWO BANKS are doing a large business, being sup- plied with plenty of means and man- aged by able and experienced men, the First National being a permanent fixture of many years standing, and having a cash capital of &50,000, while the Page county bank is a twin sister of the First National of Mal- vern, a very honorable relation, and both are located in substantial brick buildings. A third, and new bank, is about ready to step into business, with eastern capital—Messrs, 4. D, Mathuss, A, B. Woodford, John Nor- ton and D, 8, Priest being among the leading spirits in the movement, THE NEWSPAPELS are of the strong and influential elass the Republican having the largest ci culation of any paper in the county, and Messrs, Copson & Gaff may well feel proud of the enterprise and the progperity that cling to them and their Jarge patronage in ‘“§obs and ads,"” Brother G. W, Gun- nison works off the Reporter ona good *Camphell,’ being well supplied also, with help and material for all kinds of job work, and wo recognized in him an old acquaintance from the Erle Dispatch, These twospicy and wide awake papers have done much to build up the town, and are classed among the leading papers of this part of the state, The Iowa Amateur, a monthly, published here by £d. M. Gaddy, seventeen ycars old, is a six- column folio, devoted to amateur jour nalism and good literature, and with one exception, wo bolieve, it is the largest amatecr journal in the United States, and is a credit in every way to its editor and popular with the read- ing public, HOAGLAND & O, is the name of a new firm which has just “‘swallowed” A.March and his business, and now offers a mammoth warehouses where they store away the parts of a dozen varieties of carriages and farm which they draw and their show rooms as neede Mr. J (. Anderson is largely interested in several banks and is treasurer of the Council Bluffs Tnsutance company, and exhibited his books to show that | the £30,000 worth of stock kept on with a sale of £106 The Shenandoah E WORK« hand had met 673,88 last year. CARRIAC haw been growing for seven or gight years, and Mr. Geo. A. Quimby, the enterprising proprictor, is doing a large business in making wagons and carriages, repairing, painting and trimming, and has machinery for re- fitting plows and a general blacksmith work, He expects to build large and expensive shops this season and ex- tend his work with ths facilities for all kinds of new work. GEO. PALMER & c0,, who have lumber yards all over this part of the state, and are just open- ing another system of yards a hun- dred miles east of “‘the Blufls,” have headquarters here, and are the focus of another large industry that sends its articles of trade in all directions, THE NURSERY BUSINESS is carried on very successfully from this point, and the agents from She- nandoah are found in all the surround. ing country, T. B. Mason, whose residence and packing grounds are near the Wabash depot, and who_ is the proprietor of a similar institution in one of the states farther east, has about a hundred acres in general nur- sery business and a large trade in home grown fruit trees, grape vines and evergreens, and ofters osage hedge in any way to suit the buyer and in any quantity; while his mar- ket gardening is cxtensive and very important to the city, as well as his large stock of garden plants, D. S. Lake's offica and residence is three-fourths of a mile east of town, where he has over a hundred acres in fine cultivation, and is also the proprietor of another nur- sery at Prairie City, Ill. When I state that Mr. Lake last year, planted a million of apples, and raised nearly ten million ot Osage hedges, besides the other general varieties of stock propagated in such first class nurseries, L give a general idea of the magnitude of the work, wnich suggests his lib- eral terms, and classes him as the largest Osage dealer in the world. H. P, DUFFIELD, M, D., is one of the substantial business men of the place, and his drug store build- ing and large stock is probably as complete and extensive as any m Southwest Iowa, and his successful practice and general business rela- tions as a vprominent factor in the literary and commercial improvements of the city have placed him promi- nently among the ‘‘prime factors,” J. €. STEVENS, recently from Hancock county, Ill., a citizen here “of but few months, has located with a stock of drugs, while his brother, H. J. Stevens, M. D., is about to open an infirmary for the treatment of chronic discases, doing an oftice business only. G, 1. ROSS, M, D,, is one of the old practitioners, and has a very large country as weil as an ex- tensive city practice, and like nearly all the business men of this young emporium, “‘takes to Tue DBee” as naturally as a duck does to water. I promised to deny that the doctor is a handsome man, but I do say he is the most healthy looking physician in Page county, and, on the principle that ‘‘a merry heart doeth good asa medicine,” if for no other reason, he is our dpctor, Another young physi- cian has just shook the dust of Harri- son county from his fee: and cast his lot here as ‘‘homeophathy physician No. 2, and s0 they come every day. THE LAW is fully represeated here, and perhaps James McCabe is a good type of the live, energetic business man as may be found, and it is “‘remarked” that he does as much or more hard work than any other man in the city, although *‘single handed,” and few men in this part of the state are more respected for integrity, energy and legal ability; while G, H. Castle, by years of suc- cessful law practice has won the es- teem of all, has a lucrative business in law, real estate and insurance, and continues to ““fill the seat of justice.” Within o few months the large brick hotel, the leading public houses in the city, has come by purchase into the hands of F. M. Park, an expe- rienced commercial agent, and hav- ing for years been familiar with the wants of the traveling public in all its forms, he at once put this house in order and opened it as PARK'S HOT Ly and on account of the convenience of the building, number and amplitude of the apartments, and the complote- ness and system of all the details in the management, it is pronounced without a rival in this part of the state, 0. F, ‘Spurlock, the gentlemanly proprietor of the "bus line, thoroughly understands his bus and has nearly become u part of the hotel sys- tem, as have also the now livery firm of HALLAWAY AND WITH! ROW close by, who have just formed a partnership to supply the needs of the public, and are fitting up with first class teams, although they now lead the van, When a gquad of fresh prisoners were brought from the battle fields to the “‘bull pens” of Andersonvilleor Libby, the poor fellows inside of the stockades would great them from all parts of the prison with tae salutation of **Fresh Fish,” but n this case it is a new stock of BOOTS AND SHOES, which is just being opened in the Opera house building by J. D. Thomas. Mr, T. has for some time been a resi- dent of Afton,the county seat of Union county, and for some years filled the now comes to Gotham and displays his fine stock in this beautiful nearly a hundred feet deep. But space and time forbid my not icing the many Jarge business houses room with mammoth stocks of goods, such as the Mentzer's and the Crose Bros', where the goods are on two or three tloors, and a strong force of salesmen are busy: 7. Mathuss, who has grain houses in nearly a score of towns and is to build several new st this seasoni to increase large business, which, during last year, amounted to five or six hundred thou- sand bushels of e grain: the brick yard ¢ al house of William Laws, one of the eatly citizens and an active business man the large amount of live stock, as rep- resented by one item, the four Poland China hogs T saw a fow days ago, bred his and rased on one farm and averaging over 50 mds when brought to market; the two large farms, just across the river, containing 1,000 acres h, fenced in and divided into hundred acre fields, and well stocked with choice cattle, the property of Senjamin Lombard, Jr., of Boston, and personally managed by his uncle, Benjamin Lombuard, of Chicago, pro- prietor of the old Lombard block and probably the heaviest loser in the great fire; the wire fence company and the post-hole digger, both of which will have new quarters of large pro- portions this season, and next fall the post-hole digger will be around at the airs for everybody to gaze at as one of the wonders of the world; the mer. chant tailoring house; the halt dozen plow and wagon repair shops; foundry and machine shops; the new brick hotel; the beautiful wagons and bus- ness of the milk companies, which furnish the lacteal fluid for family use; the beautitul fair ground set with shade trees; the bakeries, which are shipping daily « la.ge amount of bread to Missouri and scores of towns in this part of the state; the business of the railroads which, in 1880, onthe “Q " alone, amounted to (90 car loads of live stock shipped from this station, and received nearly 1,000 car loads of merchandise last year at the same station; the prospects of the round- house and machine shops of the rail- road, the $7,000 creamery, and the 15,000 canning works, to use up all the small fruit and garden vegetables that can be found or contracted for; the new plow factory and a second carriage works which parties are here now to establish; the college expected this season, on the offer made by eastern parties, that £10,000 raised here would bring £30,000 from the east to put with it; the large amount of business done by the American and Pacific express com- panies; the.crowds who attended the G. A. R. reunion last fall here, -and who will go to the Bluffs to attend next autumn; the young telephone on the “limited plax;” the great number of new buildings year, including over a hundred good residences; the whole blocks that are being made ready for buildings this season, and the long list of new resi- dences going up next summer, costing from two to six thousand dollars, BRONX, It may be interesting to recall some items of early history, and none will be more so than the story of the no- ble herse. When Gen, W. T, Sher- man was moving on Atlanta, some citizens of Lancaster, Ohio, offered the general the ‘‘best horse in the siate’” if he would capture that strong- hold, and they kept their word by purchasing for him the famous thorough bred for £3,000. This horse was a child of imported Monarch and Lady Canton, and had taken the first premum all over the state, The le- gend continues that the general rode him on his march to the sea, and af- terwards when Sherman became gen- eral, with other farm property, this horso was sold at auction to Gen, Hammond, of Mssouri, one eye having Leen destroyed by accident on the cars, while being shipped during army lite, He after- wards passed into the hands of ‘“Kate Burgess,” of St. Joe, and eight years ago he became the property of Dr. Hclmes, of Clarinda, Towa, who sold him two s later to A, J. Pierce, of Shenandoah, where he died last Juneat the age of twenty-five, having been entirely biind for a year. He was, indeed, a noble horse, of great speed, wonderful endurance and pow- erful action, and weighed nearly 1,300 pounds, full of life, so neces- sary for war, but trusty, intelligent and gentle as a kitten, His three- year-old colt, owned here by Riley Egleston, is sixteen hands high, and is said to be almost perfect. The old cry thatthe ‘‘no license sys- tem will “‘kill a town,” might fade un- der the embellishment of facts which, in this cuse, seem to ‘‘point a moral and adorn a tale” most wonderfully, The rapid growth, from the days when the late Hon, W. E. Welster had just opencd the first store here, and his brother, Dr. B, M. Webster, was the first and only physician,when Miss Eunice Barber taught the first school in a small room over Mentzer Bros.’ store, and the people wor- shiped in the (). depot, to the present aity, thronging with business trades- men from all the surrounding states, has been like a fairy tale, and has caused numerous business men to find for St. Joe and Kansas City, a pros- pective-future rival in this metropolis of Southwestern Towa, the Chicago of Page county, Buckeve, A trisl package of * BLACK-DRAUGHT " free of charge.
