DANIEL H. CAREY

	Daniel H. Carey is a leading lawyer in the northern part of
Washington, who, by his ability as a forensic orator, his acumen, and
deep erudition, has won for himself distinction throughout the state.
He has handled some of the heavy litigations through the state and 
stands exceptionally well as a talented member of the bar.
	Daniel H. Carey was born on July 29, 1862, in Dane county,
Wisconsin.  His parents, Michael and Margaret (Crowley) Carey, were
born in Ireland and early on came to the United States, settling in
Wisconsin when it was a wilderness.  The father died there about ten 
years since and the mother is still living in Dane county.  Our subject
was one of eight children, five of whom are still living, he being the 
oldest, James W., John B., Nellie, Maggie.  All of the children are 
holding prominent positions in the various walks of life.  After 
completing the high school course, Daniel H. matriculated in the state
university at Madison and when he had finished the sophomore year in
the scientific course, went to the state normal at Plattsville, where 
he graduated.  immediately following that, he came to Dundas, Minnesota,
and for three years was the efficient principal in the high school there.
After that, he read law with A.D. Keys in Fairbault, Minnesota, being 
admitted to the bar in the fall of 1889.  Subsequent to that, Mr. Carey
came to Helena, Montana, and entered the employ of Sander and Cullen,
general solicitors for the Northern Pacific in Montana.  In the spring
of 1890 our subject was appointed first solicitor for the same road, in
northern Washington, his headquarters being at Ellensburg and Yakima.
He continued in this capacity until the receivership of the eastern and
western portions of the road were consolidated in the east, doing also 
in the meantime considerable outside practice.  In 1896 Mr. Carey took
the platform and stumped the state of Washington as a silver Republican.
He gained much distinction as an orator and was enthusiastically received
in the leading centers of the state.  In the spring of 1897 Mr. Carey
opened an office in Northport and has built up a large and lucrative
practice.  In addition to legal business, he attends to various other
lines of business throughout the state.  He is attorney for the North-
port Bank, the Kendrick Mercantile Company, the Northport Smelting and
Refining Company, as well as several leading mining corporations.  Mr.
Carey took a homestead across the Columbia from Northport in 1900 and 
there has a beautiful residence, while the estate is being laid out
and improved to make one of the valuable places on the river.
	On September 17, 1898, Mr. Carey married Miss Helen M. Anthony
of Seattle.  She is a graduate of the state university of Washington
and also holds a diploma from the pharmaceutical department of that
institution.  For two years Mrs. Carey was an able assistant of her
husband in the law office, but since they took their homestead she has
paid more attention to home life.  To Mr. and Mrs. Carey one child has
been born, the date being September 18, 1903, and he is named Charles
Robert.
	Mr. Carey has always taken a very active part in every enter-
prise that tends to develop the resources of this county and bring to
the front the same.  He is a public-minded man, progressive and 
influential, and is counted one of the leading men of Stevens county.
