MINUTES AGO SHOWS THAT THE DEMOLITION HAS BEGUN ON THE CORNER
BUILDING IN DOWNTOWN MAQUOKETA. IT HAS BEEN THERE OVER A HUNDRED YEARS. FOR MANY YEARS, IT WAS THE HOME OF RINGLEP HARDWARE.
THEN KENDALL MEN'S WEAR. ALSO LATER THE BOOK DEPOT AND A SCRAPBOOK
STORE. IT WAS DAMAGED DURING THE FIRE TWO YEARS AGO AND HAD TO COME
DOWN. TODAY IS THE DAY. I'LL HAVE MORE PHOTOS LATER TODAY.
THAT CORNER IS REALLY GOING TO LOOK DIFFERENT TONIGHT.
AND....TOD BOWMAN WAS A BIG WINNER YESTERDAY IN THE ELECTION. IN THE
4-WAY RACE FOR DEMOCRAT SENATE SEAT VACATED BY RETIRING SENATOR
ROGER STEWART, TOD WON IN ALL 3 COUNTIES AND HAD A TWO TO ONE VICTORY OVER NEAREST CHALLENGER, BRIAN MOORE OF ZWINGLE. HE WORKED
HARD. ESPECIALLY IN DOOR TO DOOR CAMPAIGNING.
CONGRATULATIONS TOD.
