Sears made 2 yards in congress. The latter position he held from 1898, to 1XU, at each election being returred by an increased majority untrl voluntarily retired from official life. It was during his period in congress, that the appropriation for the present post office building in. Lawrence was obtained. The circumstances that service were rather unusual.

Mr. Bowersock worked for and obtained the appropriation at a Mime when a building owned by liis family was leased to the government for postof fice He also appointed the first rural mail carriers who worked out of Lawrence. He was a member of the first Chamber of Commerce organized in Lawrence many years ago, and served as a director of the present Chamber of Commerce almost continuously, being a member of the board at the time of his death. During his service in the state legislature, the Quantrill raid claims, which had been pending for many years were successfully prosecuted and were allowed by the legislature. Came Here in.

1877 Mr. Bowersock came to Lawrence from Iowa City in the spring of 1877. Previous to that time his father-in-law, James H. Gower, had purchased the debenture bonds of the power company which owned the dam across the river. The dam had been washed out and the company had failed.

Mr. Bowersock immediately undertook for Mr. Gower the restoration of the dam, venturing his personal capital to help put in a permanent construction. With nis father-in-law and J. W.

lloughtelin as partners he went into the milling business on the site of the present Bowersock mills. The death of his father-in-law in. 1879 and of Houghtelin left Mr. Bowersock through the Gower estate in control of the milling business which was the main industry of the group of industries developed by Mr. Bowersock in later years, about the water power.

In Iowa City from 1860 to 1877 before his removal to Lawrence he was in the merchandise and grain business and in those years formulated the business policies to which he adhered throughout his life. He said that in those days he felt free to use the profits from his business in other ventures but 'did not. risk his original capital in untried fields. Taking over the assets of the Lawrence Savings bank" "which failed in 1877, Mr. Bowersock established the Douglas County bank, and ran it for a number of years, when it was merged in the Douglas County National bank.

Later that bank was moved to the corner of Seventh and Massachusetts street and its name changed to the Lawrence National bank. Opera House in 1880 In the year 1880 Mr. Bowersock bought the old Liberty hall and converted it into the Bowersock opera house. The building burned in 1911 and on the site the present Bowersock' theatre was erected. i When the barbed wire manufactory was established in Lawrence, Mr.

Bowersock was associated with the late A. Henley in that undertaking. When the company which built the original street railway in Lawrence went out of business. Mr. Bowersock purchased the railway and operated it for a number of years at a loss because he believed it was a desirable thing for the town.

He was interested in the Lawrence paper mill and when after a number of years of business struggle the other owners sold their interests to him, he built the business up to the present successful industry. Even for a number of years after he was in sole control; the industry did not pay. Largely for the purpose of giving a number of men employment he stayed with the paper manufactory and with the passage of years business suc-eess'was achieved. In 1903 in the greatest flood in the history of Kansas, the flour mill and water power were washed out and part of the dam was taken away. Soon after, Mr.

Bowersock began the restoration work. R. Jackman from Minneapolis, Kansas bought a half interest in the power and flour business, and this relation has continued since that time material growth in the business. Through all the years of, his business activities and while serving the city, county and congressional district in public there was one "outside" interest to which Mr. Bowersock gave much time and thought and which, afforded him some of his deepest satisfactions.

That was the Old and New Club. Invited to join soon after his arrival in Lawrence, he found the club some of the strongest friendships of his life. in; two plays through center and i time was taken out for Stark and took a 2 yard penalty for exces-. sive time out. Stark punted 35 "Bnutiful life, at set of sun.

Beautiful goal, with race well won. Beautiful rest, with work well done." This beautiful stanza expressive of the life- of Mr, Bowersock was found, written by his own hand, cn the back of a much scribbled piece of paper on his desk. It was selected by his wife and appealed with equal force to him. Although Mr. Bowersock was born Sept.

19, 1842, and was a little over eighty years old at the time of his death, no one thinks of him as an old man. While in recent years there was a ripening in his philosophy, a keener interest in the welfare of men, and a growing sympathy with life in general, he remained to the end the Bowersock, who in his young manhood had mastered -the floods of the Kaw, and who had made 'himself one of the leading citizens of his state. His body, never rugged and weakened by a digestion for many years poor, finally gave way, but there was no breaking of his terror of approaching death and he passed away like Moses with his eyes un- dimmed and his mental force unabated. Centered Interests Here After locating in Lawrence Mr. Bowersock centered his interests here.

The Bowersock Mills, elevators and warehouses; the ice and cold storage plant; the Lawrence Paper Manufacturing 'Company; the Iawrence Iron Works, and the Lawrence National Bank all speak of his force and ability, but it was the Bowersock Theatre that he erected as a memorial to himself, more largely to give the people of Lawrence a fine play house, than with the idea of financial returns. Bowersock was never hard nor exacting with! those with whom he did business. There are scores of men in Lawrence who can truths fully tell of how he carried them in times of trouble and enabled them to save what they had. He was exceedingly practical in his ideas, and lacking in sentimental expression, but it speaks volumes in his praise to say that he was rprerallv loved and respected by hi? employes. A score of agreements helping employes to own tLeir homes, expresses his idea of service to others.

Providing steady work was the greatest help he thought he could render. Mr. Bowersock was forceful as speaker and as a writer. He could put a real punch in anything he had to say because he could see plainly and think with clearness and decision. No man in the his yard, and Spurgeon replaced Burt.

(By the Associated Press) Martial law was proclaimed in Italy today to take effect at noon, but the proclamation later was, rescinded, it is stated in dispatches from the Stefani agency in Rome, the semiofficial ftalian news organization. It is explained that the withdrawal of the proclamation is the result of an improvement in the situation. Special dispatches early this morning told of the beginning of a concerted movement by the Fascisti against several towns. Florence, Pisa, Cremona and other chief centers were declared to have been taken over the Fascisti forces who deposed the state authorities and assumed command. Apparently, according to these advices, there was no resistance.

Communcations in all parts of the country are bauly disorganized and the news of the declaration of martial law is the first to reach here since the movement started. King Returns to Rome King Victor Emmanuel is known to have returned to Rome last night with the intention of conferring today with various political leaders in an endeavor to form a new cabinet to succeed the Facta ministry, which was forced out by the threats of the Fascisti. Rome, Oct. 28. The cabinet council has been in session since midnight in order to receive reports fro'm the, provinces where the Fascisti movement has taken a subversive direction, and to adopt necessary measures to meet the situation.

The cabinet decided first to issue proclamation. 1 declaring a state of seige in all the provinces to begin at noon today but later was- modified and a proclamation" was issued urging the public to maintain order in the face of the insurrectionary attempts. Reports received by tlje cabinet council from a number of points in central Italy show that the Fa-sista are extending, their movement with a view to exerting pressure for the formation of a Fasciti cabinet The Facta ministry, despite its resignation, is acting with emergency to reestablish order. Rome and all of the large cities up to the present time have not been the scenes of any disturbances of movement. Text of 'Proclamation The Italian cabinet proclamation to the peace says: "Seditious movements having manifested themselves in certain provinces of Italy having as their object the interruption of the normal function of state poweEj and calculated to plunge the -country into grave trouble the government has'as-far as possible tried every means of conciliation in the hope of reestablishing peace and reaching a peaceful solution of the crisis."
