MASONIC SEMI-CENTENNIAL ANNIVERSARY.
On June 11, 1908, there was a fiftieth anniversary of the Masonic order in Harrison county at Magnolia. It was a busy season for farmers and the day was rainy, but a fair number were present and the program was replete with interest to the ancient and honorable fraternity. As a record we give the resolutions passed by the Magnolia lodge, the mother lodge in this county, which set of resolutions brought about this anniversary :

INDEPENDENT ORDER OF ODD FELLOWS.
The "three-link" brotherhood, Odd Fellows, is the second largest and oldest of the fraternal societies in this country. Wherever civilized man

goes, there one will find the working's of this most excellent secret society. whose aim and object is to bestow upon its members love, friendship and truth, which are its emblematic words. In Harrison county, by a singular coincidence, the two lodges of Odd Fellowship-the Missouri Valley and Dunlap-were organized the same night, October 21, 1869. Missouri Val- ley Lodge No. 170, formed October 21, 1869, had for its charter members : Judge D. M. Harris, noble grand: G. Green, vice grand: T. E. Dubois, sec- retary; Isaac Hill, treasurer. William Compton. The lodge was organized by W. L. Briggs, district deputy grand master, of Council Bluffs.

Webber, noble grand; W. N. Burbank, vice grand : G. W. Burbank, secretary: Erick Johnson, treasurer.
A hall, built in 1882, cost about eight thousand dollars. The lodge first met in the old opera hall building on Fifth street, and later in a building on the corner of Fifth and Erie streets, over a dry goods store.
Red Cloud Encampment No. 97. was organized November 24, 1882, with the following membership: F. M. Dance, chief patriarch : Robert Me- Gavren, high priest; John F. Lewis, treasurer; George H. Bedgegood, sc- nior warden; G. W. Burbank, scribe.

The present membership is two hundred and five. The highest membership was reached in 1912, when the lodge had two hundred and thirteen. The total number of persons uniting with this lodge and signing the constitution has been four hundred and ninety-eight. The lodge owns its own building. a two-story brick, one hundred by twenty-five feet in size, erected in 1892 at a cost of eight thousand dollars, including an addition made thereto later. In 1869 the order niet in the Masonic hall, over Ben

Jackson's hardware store. In the carly seventies they moved to a lodge room by themselves in "Smoky Row," below the lumber yards. In ISso it leased rooms in the then Commercial Block, sub-letting the same to the Masonic fraternity. The lodge is now in a flourishing condition, both finan- cially and fraternally, having a surplus fund drawing interest.
An encampment lodge was instituted here October 18, 1874. and in 190S a Rebekah degree was added to the work.

Little Sioux Lodge No. 389. Independent Order of Odd Fellows, was first instituted at River Sioux, October 23. 1870, but removed to Little Sioux, September, 1882, and its name was changed to "Little Sioux" No. 389, October 17. 1890. The original officers at Little Sioux were: J. B. Simmons, noble grand; James Bowie, vice grand; C. A. Demun, secretary; Elbert Jones, treasurer. The remainder of the charter members were: S. Demmon, Oliver Whitney, James Harrison, A. W. Garrison, Thomas By- ers, F. M. Dupray. For many years the lodge sub-rented a hall from the Masonic fraternity. In the spring of 1914 the lodge had a membership of cighty-seven and its elective officers were D. South, noble grand; V. Mc- Adon, vice grand; F. C. Bean, secretary; George Fox, treasurer.

In the last decade, they have enlarged and extended their building, until now it is among the finest secret society properties in Harrison county. The lodge is in a flourishing condition, including Encampment and Rebekah de- grees. The completed lodge property is worth fully twenty thousand dol- lars, the real estate being valued at eighteen thousand dollars.

At Mondamin the order is well represented, but no data was obtainable.
KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS ORDER.
The third secret order in importance in the United States, in many ways, is that of the Knights of Pythias, which was founded about the close of the Civil War, at Washington, D. C. It has grown mightily, and in some sections of the country, is today a strong order, though in Harrison and many other Iowa counties, it is not as strong as formerly.
It is with no little pride that the people of Woodbine point to the sin- gular fact that one of their honored citizens, a soldier of the Civil War, formerly in the naval service of his country, Charles Cleveland, was one of the charter meinbers of the first Knights of Pythias lodge instituted, Lodge No. 1, Washington, D. C. As a veteran of the Civil War, member of the Grand Army of the Republic and also of the Woodbine Knights of Pythias

lodge, he is very popular with all classes. He is now seventy-nine years of age and in feeble health.

CHAPTER XVII.
RAILROADS AND TRANSPORTATION.
It was fully nineteen years after the first settler. Daniel Brown, set his stakes and claimed this as his residence, before the sound of the "iron horse" was heard resounding through the valleys of Harrison county. In these days of fast express trains and long, heavily-loaded freight trains, bearing their loads to far eastern markets, it is hard to comprehend the vast change in the manner of living in western Iowa. In fact. Henry Reel came here to get away from the sound of the shrill steam whistle! When the first "squat- ters" settled here there was not a mile of railroad within a thousand miles of Harrison county, and it was not until 1856 that Iowa had a railroad on its soil, the Rock Island route being the first to cross the Mississippi river at Davenport and Rock Island, Illinois. The Chicago Northwestern line was the first to build across the state, landing at Council Bluffs in 1866, ten years after the first rail was laid on this side of the Mississippi.
With all that may be said against railroad corporations, it must be ad- mitted that they have always been the great civilizing factors in opening up the western states, those west of the Ohio river. What would have been the condition of Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas had it not been for rail- roads going on in advance of thickly settled portions of the country, and making it possible to develop a country which, in the very nature of things, must needs be an agricultural region? Before the coming of railways, away back in 1859-60, corn could not be sold or even given away, in many sections, and it literally rotted in rail cribs, just before the Civil War came on. Some sold at eight cents per bushel. It then took two bushels of corn to purchase one pound of cut nails. Pork sold from one to two cents per pound. all because there were no railroad facilities in this western country.
There were prophets, then as well as in Bible days, for it is learned from early newspaper files that Hon. Isaac Parrish, a man recently from the twenty-sixth congressional district in Ohio, who settled near where now stands California Junction, remarked in 1858: "It will not be ten years before the cars will be rolling down the Boyer Valley. They will strike
(16)

McIntosh Point, go west, cross the Missouri river, and so on to California. Men may come and go from New York to San Francisco in ten days by rail."
Men who heard him talk thus, called him visionary and foolish. Eleven years passed by-that's all -- and passengers journeyed from ocean to ocean in eight days, and now ( 1915) the time is several days less than that by the "fast overland flyers." stopping only at county seat stations en route.
THE RAILROADS OF ILARRISON COUNTY.
In the month of January, 1859, a company was formed for the pur- pose of building a railroad from the Missouri river to the great pincries of eastern Minnesota. It was styled the "Council Bluffs, Boyer Valley & Minnesota Railroad Company." The officers were J. W. Denison, president; J. E. Johnson, vice-president ; H. Olmstead, secretary, and N. Harris, treas- urer. The directors were Hon. Stephen King, N. Harris, William M. Hill, J. S. Cole. H. Olmstead, G. W. McGavren and C. Baughn.
Somewhat later in the same year a company was organized. of Harri- son and Shelby county men, known as the "Harlan Junction, Magnolia and Platt Valley Railroad Company."
Neither of these roads was ever constructed-the Civil War came on and, when that ended in 1865, other roads were built across the state, taking up the territory intended to be utilized by these home companies.
The Chicago Northwestern line was built from Cedar Rapids to the Missouri river as follows: From Cedar Rapids to Marshalltown in 1861-62; from that point to State Center, in 1863; to Nevada. July 4. 1864; to Boone (then named Montana) in 1865; to Council Bluffs, December, 1866.
The old Sioux City & Pacific, now a part of the great Northwestern system, was completed in December, 1867. The Fremont, Elkhorn & Mis- souri Valley, west, in 1880.
The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul line, which touches Harrison county in the southeastern portion, with Persia and Yorkshire as station points, was constructed in 1881; and the Chicago, Great Western (old Di- agonal or Maple Leaf Route) which was finished from Council Bluffs to Chicago, via Oelwine, which just touches the soil of Harrison county on two sections in the southeast corner of Washington township, was built in about 1900.
The Mondamin branch of the Chicago & Northwestern road which extends northeast from Mondamin, through the new towns of Orson and
243
ILARRISON COUNTY, IOW.A.
Pisgah, up the famous Soldier valley region of this and Monona counties, was constructed in 1899. These complete the list of Harrison county rail- roads to the present date. Out of the twenty civil townships in the county all but eight have railroad lines touching some portion of them.
These five railroad lines give the county ample shipping facilities. The Northwestern enters the county just above Dunlap, in the northeastern part of the county, traversing the county in a diagonal line, southwesterly, passing , through the sprightly towns of Dunlap, Woodbine and Missouri Valley, and in its route crossing portions of Harrison, Boyer, Jefferson, Calhoun, St. Johns townships.
After leaving Missouri Valley city, the road northwest runs through California Junction, Modale. Mondamin and River Sioux, thence on into Monona county, ending its course at Sioux City, where connection is made for Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota.
The Mondamin branch runs through parts of Morgan, Raglan and Jackson townships.
The Milwaukee line runs through Washington township. from section 32, on the south, to section 4 on the north line of the township.
The Great Western line touches sections 36 and 25, but has no station point within Harrison county.
The mileage of Harrison county railroads is as follows :
Chicago & Northwestern lines: Main line, 30 miles; Soldier River, line, 13 miles; Sioux City line, 32 miles. Total, seventy-five miles.
Illinois Central, twenty-nine miles. Total in county, one hundred and thirteen miles.
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, seven miles.
Chicago Great Western, about two miles.
