party. The Washington Commercial was published a few months in 1881 by S. F. Horrall. The Washington Republican was published a short time during the fall of 1883, and the following winter by Dr. W. A. Horrall.


The Daviess County Democrat was established December 2, 1862, by T. R. Palmer and Stephen Belding, as a six-column folio, with the subscription price at $2 per year, and with the motto, "The Union, the Constitution, and the Enforcement of the Laws." On June 4, 1868, the paper was enlarged to a seven- column quarto, a patent inside being adopted, and the motto dropped. October 17, 1868, Col. Palmer sold out to Mr. Belding who was the sole proprietor until October 23, 1869, when Elias F. Widner was admitted to partnership, and the name of the firm became S. Belding & Co. The office of publication, which had up to this time been on Van Trees Street in the rear of the post- office, was removed, June 10, 1870, to the Gallagher Block, op- posite the postoffice. At this time Mr. Widner sold out to Mr. Belding, who has since been the sole proprietor of the paper. The patent inside feature was discarded November 13, 1869, and on April 8, the subscription price was reduced to $1.50 per year. July 1, 1876, the paper was enlarged to an eight-column folio, its present size. In 1873 a power press was set up, and afterward a mailing machine. February 20, 1881, the establishment was moved to its present convenient and pleasant quarters on Third Street a short distance from Main. The paper has always been Democratic in politics and has ably devoted a proper amount of attention to local interests.


The Washington Gazette was established in February, 1865, by Jacob Covert and George W. Colbert, the office at first being in a small building on Fourth Street belonging to Col. John Van Trees. The paper was a six-column folio. In 1868 Mr. Covert sold his interest to John A. Rodarmel, from which time to 1870 the firm name being Colbert & Rodarmel. They were known as the "juvenile publishers " of the State. During their man- agement the editorial work was done by John Evans, an at- torney, now deceased; William Thompson, also deceased, and by Dr. W. A. Horrall. S. F. Horrall purchased the paper in 1870, and published it until 1876, when he sold it to Malachi Krebs.

Mr. Krebs conducted it about eighteen months, doing good work in the campaign, but making many enemies. The office then fell into the hands of his sureties, H. C. Brown, O. H. Braun, Henry Hyatt, M. L. B. Sefrit, N. H. Jepson and William Arm- strong. This company continued its publication until 1880, with John A. Rodarmel as editor and manager, and Thomas Meredith, now deceased, as local editor. In this year the paper was pur- chased by John A. Rodarmel, William Martin and H. C. Brown. In February, 1881, Frank A. Myers purchased the interest of William Martin, and in 1884 Mr. Brown's interest was assigned to Elisha Hyatt, who in December following made a general as- signment, and his interest was purchased in February, 1885, by Heber H. Allen. The proprietors, therefore, at present are Frank A. Myers, John A. Rodarmel and Heber H. Allen. The Gazette is an eight-column folio, entire home print, Republican in politics, and is devoted to the interests of Washington and Daviess Counties.


The Washington Advertiser was established October 14, 1884, by Alexander Chomel. It is a neatly-printed seven-col- umn Democratic paper, and devoted to home interests, like all the papers of the city. The Washington'Daily Enterprise was started also by Alexander Chomel, October 13, 1884, as the Daily Jack- sonian. The name was changed June 1, 1885, to The Washing- ton Daily Enterprise. It is a five-column patent-inside daily, and is Democratic in politics.

LEADING BUSINESS ENTERPRISES.


The Eclipse Mills were erected in 1855 by Richard Bruner, William Wilkins and George Ballow. The building is a three- story frame, and worth, including the machinery, about $15,000. In 1861 they were sold to Joseph Pollock, who in 1866 sold to H. C. Brown one-half interest, and later in the same year the

other half to Albert Bruner. In 1868 Mr. Bruner sold his half to Mr. Brown, who ran the mills until June, 1885, when they were purchased by George F. Signor and Dr. F. M. Harned, who now manage them under the firm name of George F. Signor & Co. They have five run of buhrs, and two sets of rollers, thus being run on the combination plan. Their capacity is 125 barrels of flour in twenty-four hours.


The Washington Mills were built by J. C. Spink and Stephen D. Wright in 1857. In 1860 they sold a third interest to J. C. Veal, and in 1861 Spink and Veal bought Mr. Wright's interest. In 1863 they built a woolen factory, running it in connection with their flouring. Both these enterprises were carried on by Messrs. Spink & Veal until 1875, when in consequence of heavy losses caused by a flood in the White River, Mr. Spink made a compromise with his creditors, and John Hyatt took his place in connection with Mr. Veal, and they ran the business for some time, when George Hyatt purchased the entire property and con- ducted it until 1885, when it was destroyed by fire, the loss being in the aggregate about $12,000, upon which there was an insur- ance of $7,000.


Lee's Mill is located on Walnut Street and a branch of Haw- kins' Creek. It is a three-story frame building upon a brick basement. It was built by Clement Lee and Stephen D. Wright in 1866, and cost about $20,000. It contains five run of buhrs, propelled by a sixty horse-power steam engine, and has a capacity of fifty barrels of wheat per day and seventy bushels of corn. The flour manufactured is known as Lee's Straight Grade flour. Mr. Wright finally retired from the firm, since which Mr. Lee has been sole proprietor.


The City Mill was erected in 1880 by A. E. Spink & Co. It is a two-story and basement brick building, and is very strongly built, standing on the corner of South and Second Streets. It cost, including the machinery, $10,000. It has four run of buhrs and one set of rollers, and manufactures a patent roller brand of flour. Besides these it has one run of corn buhrs, all propelled by a sixty horse-power engine. The capacity of the mill is fifty barrels of flour per day, and it is managed by J. C. Spink.


The Washington Engine Works were started in 1865 by Spink

& Veal, who erected a frame building for the works. In 1871, this frame building having burned down, they erected the present brick building, a one-story brick 240x40, with an L 40x60 feet. In 1875, when Mr. Spink made a compromise with his creditors, the engine works passed into other hands, and after three or four changes in proprietorship, became the property of George Hyatt & Co. In 1884 C. H. Roberts, formerly of Evansville, purchased the property, and in May, 1885, took into partnership Albert Rat- cliff, and the firm name became C. H. Roberts & Co. They man- ufacture steam fan engines, and a full line of frogs, switches, cross- ings; etc., for mines; coal mine bottoms; castings and wheels for coal cars, and winding, portable and traction engines, and auto- matic cut-off side-valve engines, the latter being a specialty with the firm. They also make all kinds of castings, and do general repair work.


City Foundry and Machine Works, were erected in 1880 by Adam Greenfield. The building is of brick, two stories high, with a one-story brick foundry. There is also a blacksmith and general repair shop in connection. Mr. Greenfield ran the works until he was killed by the cars in 1883, and some time afterward William E. Cole, the present proprietor, purchased the property, which is worth about $7,000, and has since conducted the busi- ness. At these works are made coal-car wheels and various kinds of small castings, steam engines up to twenty-five horse-power, and a general line of engineers' supplies.


The Washington Furniture Manufacturing Company was start- ed in 1879, by S. H. Mulholland, using a building known as Hogshead's Mill, south of the Ohio & Mississippi Railroad, be- tween Second and Third Streets. In 1883 he erected a building on the corner of the railroad and Mill Street. This is a large two-story frame building, which, together with the machinery and planing-mill in connection, is worth about $10,000. In March, 1884, Mr. Mulholland organized a stock company, with the above name, and with a capital of $7,000. The officers of the company were at first, and are still, S. M. Smith, president; William R. Thompson, secretary, and John C. McCafferty, treas- urer. Since the incorporation of the company their works have manufactured about $10,000 worth of furniture, their specialties being common bedsteads and extension tables.

McKernan's Planing-Mill was established in 1875, by Sam- uel and Hugh Rogers, under the name of Rogers & Bro. They sold it to Hugh McKernan in September, 1884, who still owns it. It is located in a brick building belonging to the Elisha Hyatt estate, on Third Street. The machinery consists of a planing- mill and machinery for the manufacture of sash and doors, and is propelled by a thirty horse-power engine. The entire estab- lishment is worth about $6,000.


The Washington Gas Works was incorporated as a stock com- pany in the summer of 1877, by John M. Woodson and George W. Updyke, of St. Louis, Mo., with a capital of $35,000. In the fall of that year buildings were erected, consisting of a two-story brick building for the manufacture, purifying and measuring of the gas; gas office and private dwelling, and also a reservoir with a capacity of 22,000 cubic feet. About Christmas, of that year, the company commenced operations with 175 customers, which number has since been increased to 255. C. E. Gray, as con- tractor, erected the works. Joseph C. Lord had charge of the gas-fitting and plumbing departments, and was soon after the erection of the works placed in charge as superintendent, which position he still retains. The city of Washington was lighted dur- ing the years 1878, 1879, 1880 and 1881, at first with fifty lamps and later with seventy-five. In the latter year, on the ground of economy, the council decided to dispense with gas up- on the streets, and the company took up most of its posts. There is a fair prospect at present of an arrangement being made by which the streets will again be lighted with gas, a consummation which will be hailed with delight.


Hyatt, Levings & Co., Bankers .- This banking firm was start- ed June 1, 1868, by William Sanford, Frank Overton and C. W. Levings, under the name of Sanford & Co. & Levings. Mr. San- ford was president of the firm, and C. W. Abell, cashier, in the in- terest of Mr. Overton. The capital stock of the firm was $10,- 000. June 1, 1869, J. W. Levings bought out his brother, taking


a half interest, Sanford & Co. retaining a half interest. In 1870 Mr. Sanford sold out to Mr. Overton, when the firm became F. Overton & Co. In 1870 Mr. Overton sold his interest to Elisha Hyatt, and the name became Washington Exchange Bank. At the

expiration of about one year two partners were taken in, Dr. A. M. Whitten and Elliott Mccullough, each of whom contributed $5,- 000 to the capital, increasing it to $20,000. After about two years Mr. Mccullough died and his interest was withdrawn, and one year more Dr. Whitten withdrew, by which the capital of the bank was reduced to $10,000. In 1874 Hiram Hyatt, who had been book-keeper in the bank since 1870, invested $1,000 in the business, thus raising the capital to $11,000, the name of the firm remaining Hyatt, Levings & Co., to which it had been changed in 1871. This firm continued to conduct business until November 17, 1884, when the doors of the bank were closed on account of the impossibility of making collection of the money it had out at interest. The failure of the bank involved Elisha Hyatt's personal estate, and in order to make a settlement he submitted to his and the bank's creditors the proposition to pay his own creditors in full, and 70 cents on the dollar to those of the bank, an extremely liberal and altogether unusual proposition.


The Washington National Bank was organized August 28, 1872, the original stockholders being F. W. Viehe, Joseph Camp- bell, M. L. Brett, W. M. Tyler, W. J. Williams, C, Lee and S. H. Taylor. The first board of directors were F. W. Viehe, W. M. Tyler, S. H. Taylor and M. L. Brett. F. W. Viehe was the first president and M. L. Brett the first cashier. The capital stock was $50,000. The presidents of the bank subsequent to Mr. Viehe have been M. L. Brett, John N. Breese and E. W. Thompson, and the cashiers, subsequent to Mr. Brett, have been S. H. Taylor and R. N. Read. There has been no increase of the capital stock, but at the present time the surplus amounts to $10,000, and the undivided profits to $2,315.92.


The Peabody Rifles were organized February 19, 1883, with thirty-eight members, and was mustered into service by Adtj .- Gen. Carnahan, on the 27th of the same month. The captain of the company was Hale Clark; first lieutenant, C. H. Jones; second lieutenant, John Downey; orderly sergeant, C. P. Scudder; clerk, A. C. Barber; treasurer, P. A. Palmer. The Rifles were mustered as Company I, Second Regiment of the Indiana Legion, and were armed with the breech-loading Springfield rifle furnished by the State, each member furnishing his own (regulation) uni-

form. The company held meetings and drilled about two years, attending in the meantime, in the summer of 1883, the annual encampment at Indianapolis, and in the fall of that year the fair at Loogootee. They disbanded in February, 1885, because of the failure of the Legislature to pass the militia bill to pay room rent and other current expenses of such organizations; and shipped their arms to the auditor of State. At the time of their organization they were presented with a very handsome silk ban- ner, which cost nearly $200, by President W. W. Peabody, of the Ohio & Mississippi Railway Company, and were in consequence named the Peabody Rifles.


The Washington Literary Society was organized on Saturday evening, January 12, 1884. Dr. A. L. Sabin, Rev. T. C. Danks and J. W. Ogden were the principal movers in bringing about the organization of the society, which now has about forty members. The first officers of the society were Dr. A. L. Sabin, president; John Spencer, secretary, and J. W. Ogden, treasurer. The first meeting was held in Redmen's Hall. St. Simon's Church was used as a society room for some months, and finally the county commissioners' room in the court house was secured, and is now used. The exercises consist of declamations, essays, orations and debates, and occasional criticisms and reviews of standard litera- ture.


Cabel, Wilson & Co .-- This firm originated in 1867, and was then known as Spink, Cabel & Co. It was organized for the pur- pose of mining and selling coal. Previous to that time there had been some mining done by several parties-by a Mr. Sawyer, two or three Germans named Kellar, and by a Mr. Wilson, fa- miliarly known as "Mack" Wilson. These three parties were bought out by Spink, Cabel & Co., in order to start their busi- ness. The main difficulty experienced by this firm was to find a market for their coal. At that time the Ohio & Mississippi Rail- way Company was burning wood in their locomotives, and Mr. Spink went to see the president of the road, W. D. Griswold, for the purpose of inducing him to burn coal instead of wood. Mr. Griswold at first objected that it would be necessary to change all the locomotives, entailing a heavy expense, but was at length prevailed upon to change one locomotive. Thus was begun the


699


HISTORY OF DAVIESS COUNTY.


burning of coal on the locomotives of the Ohio & Mississippi Railway. The experiment with the one locomotive was so satis- factory that gradually locomotive after locomotive was changed, until all on the road were burning coal, with the saving of 50 per cent on the cost of fuel, as President Griswold said. In five years after the experiment was made the Ohio & Mississippi Road was taking from Spink, Cabel & Co. from thirty to forty car-loads per day. In 1873 Mr. Spink sold out his interest in the firm, and Thomas Wilson was taken in his place, since which time the firm name has been Cabel, Wilson & Co. On the 19th of November this company was dissolved by mutual consent, Mr. Wilson retiring, and the company at present is Cabel, Kauffman & Co. They operate the following mines in this county: Dutch Bank, Sulphur Springs, Eureka No. 4, Eureka No. 5, and Maple Valley, and employ nearly 500 men. The amount of coal shipped by this firm in 1874 was 115,334 tons; in 1879, 132,272 tons, and in 1884, 119,184 tons, or an average of 122,263 tons per year. This amount is about nine-tenths of the coal shipped from Washington, and does not take into account the quantity con- .


sumed in Washington and the rest of the county.


The Washington Board of Trade was organized mainly through the instrumentality of O. H. Brann. The first meeting was held over the store of Mr. Brann, and its subsequent meet- ings were held in the City Hall. Alexander Leslie was elected president, Alexander Chomel, secretary, and O. H. Brann, treas- urer, and they yet remain in their respective positions. The membership of the board increased rapidly from the first, and a great deal of interest was manifested in its operations. Public matters were discussed, such as the improvement of the public highways, the building of bridges, manufactories, etc., and its objects were to encourage trade, commerce, and agriculture, and thus foster and build up the material interests of the entire com- munity. After a time, however, meetings ceased to be held, and it became affected by the prevailing lethargy. Its organization, however, has been maintained intact, and the prospect is that with the revival of business energy, which is apparent in connection with the completion of the Evansville, Washington & Brazil Rail- way, and the prospect of securing the Ohio & Mississippi Rail-

way machine shops, its work will be again taken up, and result beneficially to all concerned.


The Ohio & Mississippi Machine Shops .- At least as early as 1867 there existed hope of securing the machine shops of this railroad to this city, but not until November 17, 1885, was there received a definite proposition from the railway company upon which the citizens could take action. On that day a communica- tion was received by Mayor Ellis from W. W. Peabody, president of the Ohio & Mississippi Railway Company, proposing to con- centrate their machine shops at Washington, provided this city would donate sixty acres of land for a site, and $75,000 in cash. On November 19 a meeting was held, at which a committee was appointed to confer with President Peabody with reference to the terms of the donation, this committee consisting of Judge W. R. Gardiner, Dr. F. M. Harned, Mayor W. P. Ellis, Joseph Cabel, and J. H. O'Neall.


AN EARLY TEMPERANCE SOCIETY.


The first temperance society in Daviess County was organized in 1832, by Rev. Ransom Hawley, at Washington. It was named the "Washington Temperance Society." Following is the sub- stance of the society's constitution: Article 1 merely determined the name of the society as given above, and Article 2 the condi- tions of membership.


"ART. 3. The members of this society, believing that the use of intoxicating liquors, is, for persons in health, not only unnecessary, but hurtful, and that the practice is the cause of forming intemperate appetites and habits; and that while it is continued the evils of intemperance can never be prevented, do therefore agree that we will abstain from the use of distilled spirits, except as a medicine in case of bodily infirmity; that we will not allow the use of them in our families, nor provide them for the entertainment of our friends, or for persons in our employ- ment, and that in all suitable ways we will discountenance the use of them in the community."


Article 4, provided for the officers of the society, and Arti- cle 5, prescribed their duties.


" ART. 6. When the executive committee are, from a respecta-

ble source, informed that any member has violated Article 3, of this constitution, it shall be their duty affectionately to admonish him, and use all suitable means for his reformation; but if all such means fail to restore him, he shall be expelled by said com- mittee or society, at the option of the accused, at a regular meet- ing of the society."


Article 7, provided for quarterly meetings of the society, and Article 8, prohibited alterations in the constitution, except at annual meetings, by a two-thirds vote of the members present. Following are the names of the first officers of the society: Pres- ident, D. P. Barton; vice-president, Abraham Wise; secretary, Ransom Hawley; managers, William Bratton, Col. John Flint, James Carnahan, Stephen Martin and W. G. Cole. The names of those who subscribed to the constitution at the time of the organization of the society were as follows: Hiram A.
