It is a typical Western ranch, comprising three thousand two hundred acres of land, and is located ten miles from the town of Marion. This immense tract is owned by E.M. Donaldson, of Sioux City, Iowa, but the management is entirely under the gentleman whose name heads this sketch. To the Easterner or one from the Old World who has never seen these vast stock or wheat farms, the life here would be a revelation. There is on the place a little community in itself, with not only commodious quarters for the numerous assistants and laborers employed on the place, but <span class=SpellE>wareooms</span> and storehouses, implement houses, and immense sheds for the housing of the stock. The residence of the manager is a commodious and tasteful house, well located so as to command a sweeping view of the surrounding territory. It is quite new, having been erected in 1891.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast'>While ever meeting with the courtesy expected from a gentleman, the forty or more men that are constantly employed upon the Donaldson Ranch immediately feel, in entering the employ of the manager, that A.J. Donaldson is not a man to be trifled with, that he knows his business and expects others to know theirs and to do it according to their best lights. He is himself an energetic and go-ahead man, who does not believe in sparing himself, and brings an indomitable will, <span class=GramE>that</span> would ride without hesitation furiously ten miles over a desert prairie for a cigar if he really wanted it, to bear in the every-day routine of his ranch life. He is a fair exponent of that pithy Western doggerel: &quot;It is not rank or wealth or state, But '<span class=SpellE>git</span> up and 'it' that makes man great.&quot;<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast'>The Donaldson Ranch, which is characterized throughout by the most perfect and finished order, is stocked with between eight hundred and one thousand head of stock. Enough has been said to show the important trust which our subject has reposed in him. Now let us turn to the individual and consider the circumstances that have made him what he is. He was born in Butler County, Kan., April 19, 1858, and is a son of the late George T. Donaldson, who was a native of Illinois. His mother was Elmore V. Vaught, also a native of the Prairie State. They, in company with three other families, came to Kansas and settled in Butler County, being the first settlers in that vicinity. There they passed the remainder of their lives and died after an industrious and hard-working experience.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast'>Of the nine children who were born to George and <span class=SpellE>Elinore</span> Donaldson, our subject is the third in order of birth. He was reared in his native place, breathing in vigor of mind as well as body with the free prairie air in which he lived. On finishing his preparatory education he became a student at the State Agricultural College at Manhattan, Kan., but just before the time that he should have graduated he was called home by the illness of his mother. His father had passed away when he was a lad of but twelve years of age.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast'>Our subject continued as a resident of Butler County, Kan., until 1885, when he removed to Clark County of the same State and operated a ranch for three years. He then went to Lexington, Mo., where he was engaged as a special manager for the lumber company of Chapman &amp; Denny, of Kansas City. He remained with them for one year and then assumed charge of his brother's interests in Western Kansas. He remained there two years, and in December, 1891, came to the ranch mentioned above, and in this short space of time has so ably managed it that it is a remarkable place.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast'>Mr. Donaldson was married in Dodge City, Kan., September 22, 1886. His bride was a Miss Katie Olmsted, a native of Illinois. So engrossed is our subject in the interests that most nearly concern him that he has but little time to give either to local or general political affairs. He takes an active interest, however, in church matters, and with his amiable and lovely wife <span class=GramE>is</span> an attendant and member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Fraternally, Mr. Donaldson associates with the members of the Marion Lodge of Odd Fellows. The Donaldson family originated on the paternal side in Scotland, while the Vaught family, as the name would indicate, came from Germany. <span class=GramE>Portrait and Biographical Record of Dickinson, Saline, McPherson and Marion counties.</span> 1893 Page 174 - 177<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><strong><span style='font-size:14.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-fareast'>Ehrlich, Carl C<span class=GramE>.</span></span></strong><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-fareast;mso-bidi-font-weight:bold'><br> </span><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast'>Carl C.
