This garden stands as a tribute to J. C. Denious and his family, who owned and operated the "Dodge City Daily Globe" from 1910 to 1988. The newspaper has a history dating back to 1878 as a weekly publication, but Denious is credited as the Father of the Daily Newspaper in Dodge City. He was active in politics, serving the region as State Senator from 1933 to 1941. Denious also served Kansas as Lieutenant Governor under Governor Andrew Schoeppel from 1943 to 1947.
