unduly detained. Following abandonment of the Newtonline this facility was moved to protect the C&NW crossing at Oralabor. Actually, the procedure seems tantamount to holding a N&NW employee hostage to be surethat right-of-way would be restored to the other railroadand seems to have had little value in making operationsafer.

Hope depot junction. . .The Hope depot and junction was an important stopping point for the Interurban train in southern WebsterCounty southwest of Harcourt. A conductor and crew is shown in front of the Interurban. The Rockwell City run is on theleft.

Interurban train line linked Gowriewith coal-producing Fraser areaAlthough primaily an agricultural state, Iowa hasan inportant coal producing region. The need to move thiscoal provided the incentive to build railroads. Incorporated on February 16, 1906, the Fort Dodge, Des Moines& Southern Railway grew to become the longest interurban in Iowa. Its 85-mile long mainline from Des Moinsto Fort Dodge linked the coal and agricultural regions ofwestern Iowa. A multiplicity of branches increased thetotal route miles of electrified reailroad to 147.

Predecessor Companies

On September 13, 1893 the Boone News Republican reported that the Boone Valley Coal and Railroad Company had been formed for the mines with theMinneapolis & St. Louis Railway. Instrumental in thiseffort was Hamilton Browne. Browne had been the manager of the coal mines in the area since the Clyde CoalCompany started operations during the 1880s. A town,later named Fraser, was constructed in the center of thecoal field. From this town the original three miles of trackwere built to Fraser JCT. (later Wolf) and the M&StLconnection.A great demand for coal existed. As a resultthe town and the railroad prospered. In 1898 Browneproposed to use this railroad as the basic segment of aline running from Story City, 18 miles east of FRASER,through Fraser, Gowrie, Rockwell City and northwestto the Dakotas. To implement this plan, he organized theMarshaltown and Dakota Railroad Company.Due to limited financial resources, the companywas able to construct only the segment between Fraserand Gowrie. Undaunted, Browne traveled to Boston tosecure financial backing from the eastern moguls. Hemanaged to convince them that his plans were viable asevidenced by his incorporation of the Newton & Northwestern Railroad in 1902. This company planned a linefrom Rockwell City to Newton, a distance of 102 miles.The Marshalltown and Dakota was absorbed to becomethe nucleus of the new line. At this time coal mining operations were spun-off into separate corporation ownedby the company. The first segment of the new track to

open was the twenty miles northwest from Gowrie toRockwell City. Started in the spring of 1903, it was constructed in approximately nine months.Begun in the spring of the previous year, construction southeast from Fraser was complicated bysteep hills cut by numerous ravines. Most of the gradingwas done by hand and the dirt was moved by teams ofhorses. Grading on Boone Hill between the Des MoinesRiver and Boone was a laborious as well as dangerousproject. Several teams of horses were lost through fallingover the steep banks.The major geological feature to cross was a tributary of the Des Moines River. Carrying the tracks 156feet above the valley, a wooden trestle 800 feet in lengthwas completed in the summer of 1903. Timber used toconstruct this structure was floated down the river to thebridge site, about three miles west of Boone.The summer of 1904 saw the completion of theline to Newton. An American class (4-4-0) locomotiveand two coaches provided service on the daily roundtrip.Two ten-wheelers (4-6-0) were purchased for freight service. In 1906, a branch was opened on the east end fromGoddard to Colfax where a connection was made with theInter-Urban Railway.The mechanically-interlocked crossing with theOelwein-Kansas City line of the Chicago Great WesternRailway at Mingo had a unique protective device. Therewas no attendant leverman. The crossing was normallyset for the CGW which operated the greater number oftrains. When a N&NW train desired to cross, its brakeman marched ahead to become the leverman. Once inside the signal shanty, he had to lower a large steel plateover the access door thus unlocking the signal controllevers, which he then manipulated to block CGW andclear N&NW. When his train had cleared the crossing,the reverse procedure provided for exit from the tower.To ensure that no means of escape were available shortof chopping down the tower, iron bars prevented exitthrough the windows. Apparently this system was failsafeas history does not record some unfortunate soul being

Crew builds one Interurban switch engine. . .This crew at the Interurban shops in Boone constructed this Interurban switch engine which manuevered Interurban trains around the tracks to go to various locations. One of the lines went from Frazier to Gowrie, and the last citywest of Gowrie was Rockwell City.

Overall, Iowa farmers had 4.6 days suitable for fieldwork for the week ending August 2, 2015,according to the USDA, National Agricultural StatisticsService. Activities for the week included cutting hay andfungicide and insecticide applications. Humidity and heataided crop development, but precipitation made harvesting hay and oats difficult in some areas. There were reports of weed and insect problems in soybeans and fungus in corn fields.Topsoil moisture levels rated 0 percent veryshort, 6 percent short, 80 percent adequate and 14 percent surplus. Subsoil moisture levels rated 0 percent veryshort, 6 percent short, 81 percent adequate and 13 percentsurplus. South central Iowa saw the largest increase intopsoil moisture levels, with 60 percent surplus, up from51 percent the prior week.Ninety-three percent of the corn crop reachedthe silking stage or beyond, with 30 percent reaching thedough stage or beyond.

Polka anyone?An interesting thing about writing this columnis that I sometimes get surprised by an unexpected andwelcome response. I have said several times, you cantgo home again but sometimes through the memoriesand input of others we can feel its possibilities. I hadwondered about the old old town band, the one beforemy time in Boxholm and about the polka band thatClair Reynolds was in. I got responses from both DavePeterson and (young) John Reynolds, Clairs son. Themoment I read Polka Dots I said to myself, Oh, yeah!I was pleasantly not surprised to learn of Johnsfollowing in Dads footsteps as being an accomplishedmusician on several instruments and having played withhim in bands. John told me of all his musical accomplishments as well as academic. It is good to hear thesethings from and of former citizens of Podunk town andsurrounding area of Boxholm. Shows the education systems must have been good to teach and encourage desiresto grow in self and yet remain so faithful to and proud oftheir ancestry and heritage and community. I could sensethat spirit from Johns e-mail.Between David and John the Polka Dots werebrought back to life. I was provided pictures and names.I only recognized three of the names, Clair, of course andDixie Johnson and Riney Reinhart. I believe Dixie wasan accordion player (needed instrument for those famouspolkas) and the only girl. I never met Dixie but knowher parents and mine were good friends, having met whenmy Dad dug a well for them. Now I need someone to tellme her maiden name which has long escaped my nogginand the first names of her parents. I am sure when I hearit Ill again flatten my forehead a little more as I say, Ohyeah! The third person, Riney Rhinehart, was a verywell known name in music around the area and in Iowa.He took over the Boxholm town band when Mr. Erickson left. He played a mean clarinet and probably otherreeds, etc. but its the clarinet I remember. I believe hehad his own band and played the dance venues aroundIowa, especially Lake Robbins. He always seemed so upbeat and enthusiastic.Cant you just hear those Polka Dots now?There were the up and down the scales and melodies ofthe reeds; the oompahpahs of the base, baritone, trombone, trumpets; the accordion taking over every once in awhile, and the dancers, some seemingly very professionallong timers and younger ones just learning the simplerpolka steps. I bet in some venues the dancing was en-

couraged by a few Buds, Hamms, Coors, etc. After allthe originating countries of polkas were also known forcertain beverages too. Makes me wish I could find thatold eight track and a player. Maybe my great grandkidswill find the tape someday and wonder what in Heavensname it is. Do you suppose they can find a workableplayer in some antique shop and would the tape not havedeteriorated?I dont hear a good polka very often now.Theres one cable station that sometimes has a late lateshow on Saturday night that features the good polkabands and dancers. I note most of the dancers are whitehaired and a bit humped shouldered but they still cutthat rug. Any old timers around who still have a venueclose by to cut your rug?I am always happy to hear from those that area generation behind me, telling of your memories. After all my memories go back seventy and more years soyours could be of interest to current generations. Wecant go home again but we can still remember and keepalive for those generations to follow.

Fort Dodge, Webster Co.seeks public input onRiverfront Master Plan

Addendum After completing this column I had amessage from John Reynolds. Remember my mentioning inan original column regarding the town band of my day inwhich I referred to John (the elder) Reynolds being my partner in the alto section and thinking at first his horn was ababy baritone? It was an alto horn and we were indeedknown as peck horns because in most of the numbers, especially marches, we pecked along with the after beat. Johnstill has that horn (very old by now as wasnt real new then)and sent a picture of him holding that very horn. I am including that picture. Happy are the memories.

Dayton Review

My activities mostly consist of riding my horsesin a variety of events from barrel races to ranch rodeos,but anything involving outdoor activity seems to intrigueme.College has been a subject that is coming upfast, and I havent quite put my finger on that exact careerpath, although Veterinary Medicine is at the top of mylist.I feel not only honored to be elected SeniorQueen for the 2015 year, but I also feel that representingmy hometown community in such a way will be an amazing experience this coming Labor Day weekend.I would like to invite everyone to attend at leastone fun filled performance at the 78th annual PRCAChampionship Rodeo.Meeting new people and sharing informationabout the sport we call rodeo is very exciting for me, andI hope to see you there!

Dayton Review

Lehigh Historical Society restoresold jail cell dating back to late 1800sBy Tyler AndersonEditors Note: This is a reprint of the featurestory from the July 1 issue of the Dayton Review. It isreprinted due to font issues from that particular edition.At the Lehigh River Days Parade, a curiositywas among the many entrants of the river towns showcase of floats and vehicles on a bright, Saturday morning.Enclosed in its confines was the Mayor of Lehigh, Paula Martin, who sat on the cushion on top of itsmetal frame bed.While many chuckled at the mayors presentsituation alongside the parade route, the jail cell she washeld in is a hallmark of Lehighs storied past.The jail cell was recovered, restored and given anew lease on life. The jail cells renewal was all thanks toa group of Lehigh historians.I found it as I was driving through Burnside,and there it was, you can see it from the road, Doug Linnsaid of his discovery. Thats how we found it again; itwas sitting in a bunch of bushes.Doug Linn, a prominent member of the LehighHistorical Society, then called his good friend RogerSmith. Coming across the jail cell, Linn and Smith sawthat it was in rough shape.One of its sides was missing, and its frame wasbent out of shape.According to Smith, the cell door alone tookthree to four hours to get it to open and close properly.When the cell was removed from its location, it was tornout with little regard, bound for the junk heap.We got it hauled here and it was sitting on theground, Smith said. I got Doug Zuspann to look at it.He does a lot of body work. He fell in love with it andsaid, we need to fix that. He came in and we spent threedays fixing it up.Smith then had the material donated from a

friend of his, figured to be up to $100.We donated the work, so we didnt put anymoney into it, Smith said. It turned out pretty good.As with any lost treasure, the jail cell had quite ahistory to it.According to Linn, its origins were calculated tobe from the late 1800s.It was in the bottom of the old post office in Lehigh, Linn said. Before that, it could have been somewhere else in town and put there when they built the postoffice in 1904.The cell, according to Linn, could have beenaround a lot longer, in an older post office building thatcaught fire in the beginning years of the 20th century.Smith chimed in,recalling a fond memoryof the cell being in the postoffices basement.I can rememberit when I was a little kidgoing to school, Smithsaid. After school, myfriends and I would run tothe post office and peek inthe basement window andsee who they had in jail. Anotherpartof the cell was the metalfloor, possibly to preventa prisoner from an underground escape.It had a part ofa metal floor in it, but wewere afraid that someonewould get cut, Smith said.It was in bad shape and itwas all rotted away.After the parade,the cell returned to Smiths

Dayton Review

When I look downSo I have been planning my next column for acouple of weeks now, but every time I sat down to writeit, nothing got printed on the page.It was not writers block, just something insideof me telling me that I had to write something else first.It finally came to me the other day as I sat ata funeral service listening to one of my cousins sing anamazing rendition of How Great Thou Art.While most in that sanctuary were envisioningbeautiful mountain scenery or fluffy, white clouds in adeep, blue sky, I jumped back to a very dark place in mylife.You may be thinking that because I am a pastor,my life must have been all sunshine and roses, but youwould be wrong.I have had a wonderful life, but I have had justas many shadows as I have had bright spots and that iswhat leads me to write this today.Many years ago, I was in a relationship with aman who was not treating me well and when he decidedto leave me behind, I thought it was the end of my world.I was so depressed that I considered ending myown life.Actually, I more than considered it, I had it allplanned out.My plan was to roll my pick-up truck down avery big hill on State Highway 24 in Colorado and crashit at the bottom.The morning that I planned to execute my plan,I took my truck to the top of that hill and I parked it.I sat in the cab for a while and then I got out andlooked down the hill to the bottom and I saw a vision ofwhat that crash was going to look like.I saw the wreckage that my truck would becomeand then I saw my body, torn and bleeding and dead. Andthen I thought about what would happen next.It took some time, admittedly, but then I realizedthat nothing would happen next, not for me anyway.

I would be gone. It was then that I thought aboutthe movies that I had seen, such as Its a WonderfulLife, where people thought that their family and friendswould be better off without them and they were alwayswrong.The people they thought would benefit fromtheir absence always wanted their presence more.I got back in my truck and left that place, abandoning my plan of disappearing and preparing for whatever might come.I decided that if God brought me into this world,he must have had a good reason and until that reason wasnamed, I needed to stay.There are many who have had these thoughts.The world is just too tough and people would be better offif I just werent here to mess things up all the time.I understand, I have been there, but what I wantyou to know is that you can walk away from that place aswell.I can promise youthat there will be sunshineand roses, but I also knowthat along with them, therewill be scratchy thorns andstorm clouds to deal with.When through thewoods and forest gladesI wander, and hear thebirds sing sweetly in thetrees, when I look downfrom lofty mountain grandeur and hear the brook,and feel the gentle breeze;Then sings my soul, mySavior God to thee; howgreat thou art, how greatthou art!

Dayton Review

Summer sickness stinks!Hey friends, Tyler here. I think Im going tokeep this a little short this week. All because of that awesome subhead above my column this week.In a nutshell, this past week has been surreal forme personally. Surreal in a bad way.Why was it a bad surreal, you ask? Two words:summer sickness. But it wasnt just an unusual summercold, it was something worse.It began on Thursday a couple of weeks ago.The day at the office was buzzing right along. I cant bespecific on how I got it, but I do remember not feeling toowell toward the end of a Skype call between a few friendsand I.So I took off for Fort Dodge, grabbed the triadof congestive remedies ending with the name Quill andheaded back home.I can hardly remember the drive home. I cantquite pinpoint if it was highway hypnosis or the beginning stages of the sickness. Once I made it home at 7:30,I was out.Friday, I woke up with a sore throat and acough, but no congestion. It wasnt bad until I realizedsomething. My voice was gone. I could barely speak.For those that know me pretty well, I can havea big, booming voice when the need arises. Im just anaturally loud person, I suppose and it gives me a decentreason why I was halfway decent in church choir.Not wanting to give anyone else what I wascoming down with, I went to the office and got my workdone late in the evening. It took a couple of hours to complete my task, but it was necessary.I was still under the weather throughout theweekend, before it really hit on Monday. Congestion had

finally reared its ugly head. Dear Lord, was I miserable.Come Tuesday, I went to the clinic and foundout that I had strep throat. Well, something close to ittechnically.Usually with strep, you get a nasty fever thatgoes along with the coughing, sniffling and wheezing, allof that nasty stuff.If you pair a fever with the wonderful heat andhumidity of the typical Iowan summer, its a straight upbad combination. Luckily, I never had that additionalsymptom.So whats the moral of the day here, Mr. Peabody? Dont get sick.Actually, theres more than just keeping awayfrom sick people, like yours truly.I do want to share a disclaimer on here beforeI continue. Im by no means a doctor or a nurse. So feelfree to take my words with a grain of salt.For more expert advice, you can always chat toyour local physician or clinic. Theyre always more thanhappy to help you out.Just because it is summer, and not the primetime for colds and other sicknesses to come around, dontput away those disinfectant wipes or hand sanitizers.While there are good germs and bad germs, theywill get rid of the large majority of the bad stuff.If you dont feel good, dont push yourself to tryto muscle out of your sickness. Trust me on this one,Ive tried doing that on more than just one occasion and ithas only worked once.In my mind, that doesnt harbor good chances ofbucking the cold.Also, get some rest and relaxation. Sometimes,we can be worn down from everyday life and be susceptible to those nasty bugs lingering about.By taking it easy and not running around 100miles per hour, it gives your body time to recover.And do you really want to run, work and play atonly half strength in some situations? Probably not.So dont be like me and get sick.Hopefully, Ill be back to full speed pretty soon.In all honesty, I cant wait. Because summer sicknessstinks!
