Fremont, county seat of Dodge
county, l» one of the oldest cities In
Nebrbaska. Omaha and a few towns
along the Missouri river antedate
Fremont, but It Is one of the old set
tlements back from tha river.
ft was a stage atatjon on the old
Overland trail, and the first stop
thereon west of Omaha. Commer
cially It had achieved some Import
ance before the Union Pacific reached
It. At one time It really had a rail
road named In Its honor, the Fre
mont, KlkhoVn A Missouri Valley,
now the Northwestern. It now has
three railroads, the Union Pacific,
tile Northwestern and the Burling
ton. It Is a lively division point for
the Northwestern.
The esrllest settlers In what Is now
Dodge county were mostly "York
staters," with some from New Kng
land. A few, like Uncle Matthew
Cottrell and Uncle John Mason, were
from Scotland. You'll find a lot of
men and women of Scotch descent
In thoee parts.
I And lAoked flood.
These pioneers settled In the vicin
ity of the present city of Fremont
because the land looked good to them.
And It was, and Is, good. It was
high bench land In the converging
valley* of the Platte, Klkhorn, Logan
and Maple, up which railroad* would
eventually build and mak* bualne**
acceaalhle. Railroad* wer# built, too,
Th* dream* of thnae pioneer* were

Kremont of today, which It a bigger
and better Kremont than th# Fre

Indeed, It |a a bigger and better Kre

time.

Jeweler*, wa* founded In 1884, and la
a leader In It* line.
Of mure* Framonter* are proud of
their city’* Industrial enterprise*, and
they have a right to be. But If you
want to see them radiate pride Just
ask them about their schools and
their churches; their homes, Midland
college, the Maaonlo Home for Chil
dren, their Chamber of Commerce,
their Pathfinder hotel and their clvla
enterprise.
Midland college wae formerly Fre
rnont Normal school, founded by W.
H. Clemmons, and to which he de
voted his Ilf*. He made It a wonder
ful success, too; one of the big factors
In Fremont’a development. A couple
of year# ago It was taken over by
the 1/Ulhgrans, and It la bigger and
better than ever. It la well endowed,
and It Is backed by a people who
attest their faith by their willing
sacrifices. New building* have been
erected, and othera will be In the near
future. Denominational difference*
cut no flgura with Fremont folk when
It cornea to working for the greater
development of Midland college.
Other School*.
Then there are the echool building*
of Fremont. They are all that you
could expect of a city of 12,000 per
aona, who appreciate what good
achool facilities should be, and who
have cheerfully provided thet^ The
high school and Junior high achool
building* would be a credit to a city
many time* large! than Fremont.
Then there I* the Ma*on!e home
for children. It I* not really a Ms
sonic home except by marriage. It
I* sponsored by the Eastern Star, and
It provide* a home and an education
for the orphans of Masons There may
he larger homes of the kind, but there
_ ?-4
are none better, none more homey,
none that give orphans more tender
and loving care. That's just what It
is—a labor of love.
Now something about Fremont
j homes. There are many fine residences
in the city. There are many times as
many homes as there are fine rifcl
| dences, for Fremont is not merely a
city of residences; It is a city of real
homes. A mighty hospitable lot of
folk, those Fremonters. In fact, hos
pitality may be called an obsession
there. Aside from the Pathfinder
hotel, and a couple of bank buildings,
there has not been much building In
the business district during the last
few years. But the way the resl
I dence district has expanded the last
decade Is little short of marvelous.
Wide, paved streets, with magnifi
cent trees on either side, often meet
ing In an arch above; beautiful lawns,
cozy and often ornate home#—well,
the busy little city has earned Its
title of "Fremont the Beautiful."
Pathfinder Hotel.
The Pathfinder hotel is the pride
of every citizen. And why not? It Is
one of the finest, hotels In the middle
west. It cost more than a quarter of
a million dollar#, and every dollar
was a Fremont dollar. Because It was
built by Fremont capital every Fre
monter Is "pulling" for It.
Presidents of the Fremont Chamber
of Commerce come and retire, hut Sec
retary George Wolz goes on forever.
Wolz la the king pin of all good roads
boosters. Arouse him from sleep at
midnight—he eeldom goes to bed that
early, however—and he'll begin talk
ing about good roads and how to get
them. The Fremont Chamber of Com
merce is one that really functions.
It maintains commodious and con
venient club rooms. Time was when it
held Its weekly luncheons In the club
rooms, but that was before the Path
finder was erected. Now the club
luncheons are held at the Pathfinder,
as loyalty demands. The Pathfinder
Is also where the service clubs dine.
I-ive Stock Center.
Ann nn not overlook the rant tnat
Fremont Is something of a livestock
renter. The Fremont Stork Yards and
T>and company was organized In 1887.
and has a paid up capital of $200,000.
It maintains a sales yard and feeding
In transit facilities from western and
mountain states to Omaha and Chi
cago. lt« connection with the Union
Pacific and Northwestern railroads,
covered sheds for 45 cars of sheep
and open pens for 100 cars of sheep
and cattle; also shearing and dipping
plants and 1.500 acres of rich pas
ture on the Platte river bottomland.
The average number of employes
the year round is 35. In 1923, the
1924 statistics not yet available, the
company handled 1.170.090. head of
sheep. 68,500 he’d of cattle. 17,260
head of hogs and 1,700 head of horses.
L. T>. Richards has been president
of the company since its establish
ment. and r,. M. Keene has been
treasurer the same length of time.
They were among the early pioneers
of Dodge county. Richards. Keene
& Co. long has been one of the lead
ing real estate and financial firms of
Nebraska.
Being the county seat- of Dodge
county, of course Fremont has a
courthouse. A handsome and com
modious structure it is, too. It is
on the site of the old court house de
stroyed by fire a number of years
ago.
Many Handsome Churches.
The churches of Fremont are men
tioned last. Dast because it is de
sired to have them impressed upon
your memory. They are numerous,
representing a majority of the Chris
tlan denominations. Most of them
are handsome edifices, several of them
being extremely so. And all of them
house congregation* that are really
at work. Fremont folk may not take
their religion eertoualy. but they do
take it earnestly, which I* more to
the point.
, The names of many Fremont men
are Inseparably connected with Ne
braska history. Samuel Maxwell, one
of the great lawyers, for many years
on the supreme bench of the state,
lived here. Roes L. Hammond, one
of the great newspaper men of the
middle west, made his home in Fre
mont for many years. George TV. E.
Dorsey, long a reeldent of the city,
represented the old Third district in
congress. Now’ Fremont is in the
new Third district, and Dan V.
Stephens. educator, banker and
farmer, once represented it in con
gress. L. D. Richards, veteran of the
civil war, banker and builder, is still
going strong after more than 60
years of active business life. Colson,
Hanson. Fowler, Schneider, Marshall,
Nicodemus, Nye, Wintersteen, these
are other names that come to mind.
Fremont has grown snd prospered
with Nehrasks. and because its citi
zens have kept the faith.

Used Raw Milk
And she kept a stern eye on the boy who cared for
the cows and brought the milk to the back door g
at Mt. Vernon.
Many Omaha Homes have today a milk supply I
as natural and healthy and from surroundings as
pastoral as those of Mt. Vernon.
Scientifically treated milk serves as a great aid J
under modern conditions, but the natural product |
is as desirable and as valuable as in the times of |
the Washingtons.
Buy Raw Milk from a personally conducted local
dairy.
