J. E. McCoy
 
    J. E. McCoy was born in Placerville, California, June 7, 1864. His father, J. D. D. McCoy, was born in Canada in 1835, was the pioneer hotel proprietor of Hueneme, and now resides at Portland, Oregon. His ancestors were Scotch, but residents of America for many generations. Mr. McCoy's mother, Margaret (Lynch) McCoy, died when the subject of this sketch was quite young, leaving a family of ten children. Mr. McCoy was reared and educated in Ventura and Hueneme, and began his business career in a hotel. He has owned the Seaside Hotel for the past five years. This house was built by Mr. Judkins twenty-two years ago, and Mr. McCoy's father bought it, made some additions to the building, and opened it to the public, conducting the business for fifteen years. Since it has been in the possession of Mr. McCoy, Jr., he has remodeled and enlarged the building. It is as old as the town itself, is well managed, and is provided with a good table.
 
    Mr. McCoy was married April 17, 1884, to Miss Ina Woodruff, a native of Pennsylvania, and daughter of William and E. A. Woodruff, who reside in Hueneme. Mr. and Mrs. McCoy have one child, Maggie, born in Hueneme, March 17, 1885.

The residence at 245 E. Port Hueneme Road (formerly Broad Street) was built in 1885 for the Charles B. McCoy, family following the purchase of the land from the estate of Thomas Scott in 1885. (Ventura County Grantee Book 19, pages 375-383) A native of Steubenville, Ohio, McCoy was born on March 7, 1848. He married Elizabeth B. Garrett in January 1872. The couple had two children, Henry D. and Nellie M. By 1872, the family had moved to Hueneme where McCoy was employed on the John Fey ranch for three years. The next decade was spent working in the Butler and Birell meat market in Hueneme, which McCoy eventually purchased. In 1880 McCoy was listed in the census as a livestock dealer. His position was slaughterer and cutter. From the mid-1870s through the 1890s he apparently bought and sold three different meat markets and general stores on Market Street in Hueneme. It is uncertain where the family lived prior to their purchasing the Broad Street property in 1885. Broad Street in the 1880s and 1890s was primarily residential on the north side of the street. The south side of Broad Street featured a few residences and the first public school, built in 1872. Dr. O. V. Sessions, the town’s first Historic Resources Report 245 Port Hueneme Road, Port Hueneme, CA SAN BUENAVENTURA RESEARCH ASSOCIATES Page 5of 9 physician, had a large two story residence at the corner of Broad and Market streets. Market Street was home to the commercial development connected to the wharf located at the foot of Market Street. The McCoy family left Hueneme and moved to Simi around 1891, when McCoy took over management of the Simi Land and Water Company, organized by Thomas Bard to sell off the Rancho Simi lands which Bard had originally purchased for Thomas Scott. McCoy also became proprietor of the Simi Hotel built by Bard, and the family lived in the hotel for a time. McCoy was apparently financially successful enough to purchase the 5,076 acre Canada Verde ranch near Simi, where he farmed about half of the acreage. As late as 1912 the McCoy family still owned the Broad Street house in Hueneme and rented it out. Charles McCoy eventually settled in Los Angeles and died September 18, 1917. (Gidney, 1917)

Beatrice Blues 1923



Beatrice Blues

After finishing fourth in 1922 the Beatrice Blues hoped to improve in 1923. Opening game was scheduled for May 4th with Fairbury as the opponent. A street parade at 3:30 was followed by the game at 4:00 P.M. The Blues looked strong in the field but "Pop" Willetts, manager was concerned about the strength of the pitching staff. His concerns were affirmed as the Blues lost their first two games to Fairbury. In the opener over 1,200 fans saw the Fairbury Coyotes defeating the Blues 7-6. It is interesting that many sources called Fairbury the "Jeffersons" however the Beatrice paper consistently listed them as the "Coyotes". Beatrice wound up being last in the league in batting with a .241 average and
The Blues went through a lot of players in the beginning of the year. Lon Jackman was traded to Grand Island but jumped his contract leading to a number of problems for the Blues.
Although the Blues stayed around .500 ball all year they were unable to move up in the standings. Like most state league teams the Blues were in constant financial difficulty. In August the team had a special "Boosters" day. A newspaper report of the day states:
"Free air has been provided for those with voices suitable for rooting and all are invited to use as much of it as they may wish." 
In August the Beatrice team tried out various young town team pitchers in league games. Malicky from Barneston and Oliver from Syracuse Nebraska were given try outs with the Blues.

Beatrice played games at both the "Driving Park" and at the "Athletic Park". Any details about the location/description of these parks would be appreciated.
The Beatrice uniform for the year were white with a dark stripe. The name Blues was printed across the front of the shirts.

​Those Pre-Pro Whiskey Men!

Monday, April 4, 2016F. G. McCoy of Prescott, AZ's “Whiskey Row”                           
For more than a century a two-block stretch of South Montezuma Street in Prescott, Arizona, for excellent reasons has been known as “Whiskey Row,”  one of the most famous “sin” strips of the Old West.  When F. G. McCoy established his Wellington Saloon at 136 South Montezuma, he was neither the first nor the last to establish a rip-roaring “watering hole” on that notorious street, just one of the more creative.  

When McCoy opened his saloon in 1902, Whiskey Row already was in full swing.  The original strip, as shown above,  was largely of frame construction.   Dozens of drinking establishments — some said as many as 40 — had stood shoulder to shoulder for two blocks since the early days of Prescott.  Located in the center of the state and the seat of Yayapai County, in 1864 Prescott was designated the capital of the Arizona Territory.  In 1867 the capital was moved to Tucson for 10 years and then brought back to Prescott.  In 1889 Phoenix became the permanent capital.

According to local legend, prior to 1877, Prescott’s Whiskey Row had been located several blocks from its present location.  It was moved, some say, because wives and local employers insisted.  They complained that patrons of the Row were forced to cross a footbridge over Granite Creek and in the wet season those who had taken a “drop too many” were in danger of falling in and drowning.  Prescott poet Gail Gardner wrote:


"Oh they starts her in at the Kaintucky bar,
at the head of Whiskey Row,
and they winds up down by the Depot House, 
some forty drinks below."



In July 1900 the Row was destroyed by fire.  Patrons of the Palace Saloon, Arizona’s oldest, were not deterred.  They carried the saloon’s ornate Brunswick bar across the street to safety and continued drinking.  Within a few days of the fire, rebuilding commenced, this time using brick and masonry.  Most of the buildings were constructed between the Fall of 1900 and 1905.  Shown above, they were built in typical early 20th Century styles.  
Enter F. G. McCoy.  In 1902 with a relative, J.E. McCoy, he established the Wellington Saloon at 136 South Montezuma, between the Palace at 122 and the Owl Saloon at 138.  Unlike many of his fellow Whiskey Row neighbors, McCoy was not just selling liquor as received from wholesalers.  He also was decanting whiskey into flask-sized bottles in half-pint, shown left, and pint size, shown right, both with his own seal.  


Show left is another bottle of a slightly different shape in purple/puce. Uncommonly too, McCoy also incorporated his business.  The embossing on his bottles read:  “F. G. McCoy Co., Inc., The Wellington Saloon, Prescott, Arizona.”  Arizona bottles of this kind are rare and are highly prized by collectors of Western whiskey bottles.  Although they rarely come up for sale, when they do, McCoy’s bottles draw fancy prices. 

McCoy also was selling bottles of mineral water from the Bartlett Springs Company in Lake County, California. The November 10, 1903, issue of theArizona Journal-Miner, the local daily,reported that McCoy had just received a carload of “this famous water for the Prescott trade.”  The newspaper glowingly described the health benefits of this water over nine column inches of type,  including the following observation:  “It is also claimed that Bartlett Water removes all desire for alcohol in persons who unfortunately have developed a taste for and acquired the drinking habit. Every effect of the alcoholic poison is corrected and the system toned up and invigorated until the necessity for a stimulant no longer exists.”

That McCoy would promote a beverage to remove the desire for alcohol was another sign that he was not just an ordinary saloonkeeper.  His Wellington Saloon prospered by promoting that  “alcoholic poison” and by encouraging “the drinking habit” in its denizens.  Among incentives McCoy provided to buying a drink was a token good for five cents in trade. For that amount, equivalent to about $1.25 today, one could get a shot of prime whiskey.  A full glass cost fifteen cents.  Although such tokens were common along Whiskey Row, McCoy’s coin had a fancy “face”:  Note the decorated “5.”

Each Prescott saloon had its own regulars, cowboys, miner, soldiers or businessmen, and each had its own attractions.  McCoy’s Wellington Saloon encouraged gambling on premises.  A local artist caught the action of a game of chance there. From the dress of the gents in the Wellington picture, McCoy’s clientele were from the local business community.  They were shown playing faro.  That was a card game, more related to blackjack than poker, popular in the Old West for its fast action, simple rules, and better odds than other games.

In 1904, the owner took a second relative, B. L. McCoy, into his operation as a partner.  F.G. McCoy’s tenure at the Wellington, however, proved to be relatively short.  By 1907, the saloon was no longer listed in directories.  The reason may have been Arizona’s off-and-on flirtation with prohibiting alcohol sales.  In 1901 a “local option” law was passed permitting individual counties and towns to decide on how to regulate alcohol.  Although no evidence exists that Prescott went “dry,” McCoy may have felt it affected his business in adjacent towns.  The law was repealed in 1909.

By 1912, F. G. McCoy surfaced again in the saloon business.  This time he was recorded as running a Prescott saloon with F. C. Whisman.  Frank Whisman had been a Prescott bartender, likely working at the Wellington Saloon.  The partners called their enterprise simply “McCoy and Whisman.”  It too was a short-lived enterprise, forced to shut down when Arizona voters in 1913 approved a statewide ban on alcohol that went into effect on New Years Day, almost six years before National Prohibition. 


The outcry from Whiskey Row, shown above circa 1914, was strong.  Several saloonkeepers posted signs on their locked doors reading:  “Closed.  Our business and our right to earn a living have been destroyed by a crowd of imported agitators.” Well, not exactly.  The perpetrators primarily were the ladies of the Women’s Christian Temperance Union, more than a few of them the wives of Whiskey Row customers.

The actual effects on the town’s once booming liquor industry were less than catastrophic.  Although the Journal Miner opined that “Prescott will have the appearance of the proverbial deserted village,”  the changes largely proved to be cosmetic.  The fronts of the saloons were converted into ice cream parlors, but liquor was readily available in back rooms and basements.  With the local sheriff taking a lenient view toward enforcing “dry” laws, a 1920 census indicated some 60 saloons were still operating in Yavapai County.  

National Prohibition similarly seems to have had little effect on the drinking habits of Prescott residents.  Because getting to the town from Phoenix by road was difficult, Federal agents likely had trouble reaching there and few news accounts exist of liquor-related arrests in town.  Post-Prohibition Whiskey Row, as shown below in 1935, rebounded quickly in neon lights and busy bartenders to satisfy a thirsty Arizona clientele.

During the superficially “dry” years, F. G. McCoy faded into the mists of time.  He seems to have avoided the U.S. census takers during his life and his place of interment has not yet been recorded.  Still, we remember F. G. McCoy as a “whiskey man”  who created the Wellington Saloon on Whiskey Row, achieving recognition by artists, historians and collectors, and leaving behind flasks and bar tokens as his lasting legacy.

Note:  Today the 100 block of South Montezuma Street is still touted as the famous “Whiskey Row” and visitors to Prescott are encouraged to stop at its shops and eateries.  Unfortunately, the current strip has been described as “too touristy,” by some who are disappointed that it does not present a more authentic Wild West setting and appearance.
