resulting from the visit he received
from a piano agent who called at Mr..
Blake'S farm house and left a piano
there, telling Mr.. Blake that he didn't
suppose he would be able to sell it to
him, but would Mr.. Blake keep it on
exhibition, and for every piano MIR,
Blake could sell to his neighbOrs he
would be paid $l25 commission, besides,
the said piano agent would call twice Il
week and give the farmers daughters
music lessons. The smooth faced
agent induced MI. Blake to 5lgu what
apparently was receipt, but which
the farmer cannot fully understand
what it will be when he sees it again
and as the agent has not put in his ap-
pearance yet the farmer is expecting to
see the receipt @ turn up at some
bank as a promissory note, and other
localities should give this schemer a
cold reception, as his business looks
shaky.

ALUMNI BANQUET.

The Audubon Alumni association
met on Saturday June 9Th, 1885, at the
G. A. r. hall with forty-two members
present.
A banquet was given by the men,
bers, which was followed by several
toasts, interspersed by music. E. S.
Van Gorder, the toastmaster, gave an
able Introductory, and then announced
that j. M. Graham, one of the first
graduates, was to give the welcome ad-
dress. Mr.. Graham in pleasing tones
extended a hearty congratulation and
welcome to the class of '95, and bestow-
ed high compliments upon them. E.
Woods Soar in the name of his class
gave an able response and thanked Mr..
Graham for the welcome, and express
ed the hope that his class might work
in cooperation with the older men,
bers in making the alumni association
success.
Fred II. Blume spok upon the liter
airy work in school life. He thought
that speaking might to a very good ad-
vantage be practiced more in our
school than has heretofore been the
case.
Harry Dickinson discoursed in an
elegant tone upon the subject of "The
New Woman He praised the fairer
sex up highly and thought that great
freedom ought to be granted them.
He pleased the association greatly.
Miss Julia Wilson then spoke about
"Our Social Relations" and while re-
lating some of the exploits" of school
life, left a pleasing impression.
Miss Gene Culver, the last on the pro-
gram. had as her subject "The Alumni"
and she handled the same in an ele-
giant manner. Oh, the dear old times
of the meeting at the Park Hotel were
recalled, and the mud through which
the members on that evening were
compelled to wade. GAY, happy are the
days, the sweet days of the past gone
by)
Then after some able words spoken
by the POSTMASTER, the whole
band Joined in along remembered song,
and the program was finished.
In the face of the fact that this meet
ing was the first, at which the members
held a banquet which was followed by
toasts; and in face of the fact that
forty-two members out of the sixty
three graduates of the Audubon High
School were present, it may, in all sim
certify be said, that the meeting was
success. 1t was stimulus for better
efforts. 1t was evidence, that although
encouragement may stare at first from
every side, after some earnest endeayer,
the members will, nevertheless, assist
in making the social relations as pleas
ant as possible. And the hopes of all
undoubtedly are, that the future meet
ings may be more successful still, so
that the sweet flowing fountains of
sociability, may pour forth their waters,
refreshening and filling the hearts with
paradisian joys. ***

DISTRICT COURT.

During the pact week the work of
the district court has been progressing
slowly. The two Viola township cases,
the State against John 9. Bonwell, and
the state against H. S. Jones were dis
posed of The jury decided in the first
case that the questioned ballots cast
for John G. Bonwell were illegal and
consequently retired that gentle
man from the dictatorship. In the
Jones case, the jury after being out
twenty-eight hours came in without
agreement and the case was dismissed.
This week the time of the court has
been taken up with the criminal case Of
the State against Allen, which is still
on trial and will probably go to the
jury today.

ing of the republican senatorial con-

licans of Audubon county find out
what they are ''going to do about it."
That Audubon county is entitled to an
other term in the senate goes without
saying and our claim has been admitted
throughout the district. While both
Guthrie and Dallas counties have can
didates, they well know that their
choice depends on the wishes of the
people of this county. II we want the
honor of having our county represent

time to unite on candidate and give

WEATHER REPORT.
CENTRAL STATION,

DIES MONIES, Iowa, June 4, 1895.
Warm. growing weather prevailed
during the past week. The average
daily temperature was about two de-
grees above normal. The rainfall was
generally light until Sunday, on which
day heavy showers passed through the
central districts from southwest to
northeast; giving ample rainfall for
present needs to at least three fourths
of the area of the state. In some locali-
ties the showers were phenomenally
heavy, and possibly occasioned some
damage to crops by washing and cover
ing; but the rains, on the whole, have
been highly beneficial to all crops.
Corn is now generally in clean con-
dition and shows good stand, giving
promise OF large crop with favorable
conditions in the future.
Oats, barley, spring wheat, potatoes
and flax are generally reported in good
condition. Pastures are improving,
Small fruits are doing better than was
expected.

There seems to be some opposition to
the denomination of Judge Josiah
Given for the Office of supreme judge.
Judge Given has held the office but one
term and it would appear that ethe
courtesy of a denomination should be
extended him. For many years pre-
vious to his elevation to the judgeship
he had the reputation of being one of
the foremost members of the Polk
county bar and it is difficult to see why
there is any opposition to his serving
a second term.

TO THE PUBLIC.
Editor of Re11ubZic0,l

Editor Of Republican:
wish to correct through the col.
umns of your paper statement made
by G. H. Jones of Audubon in presence
of a number of men who were at his
place. Namely, that he had sold GER
tain goods to different parties, and
among others, a fine surrey to Mrs.
McFarlane, land that she paid him the
cash for it and that he would as soon
take her money as any one elses; that
when people wanted good rig they
had to buy from him. Now this was
in substance what he said, and / am
ready to prove it by number who
were there and heard him make the
statement. And so far as selling my
wife a surry or even talking to him
about one, it is wilful and deliberate
untruth, told for the purpose of deceiv-
ing the public or for some other equal
ly dishonorable purpose, best known to
himself. How a man processing what
he does, could stand up in crowd and
tell such a cool falsehood, is past my
understanding. He may have sold the
goods to the other parties, that I care
nothing of, but as to selling my wife
anything there is not one atom of
truth in 1t. l do not in the least doubt
that he would as soon take the cash
from her as any one else. 1 know the
gentleman's ideas in regard to taking
cash and never knew him to haye any
scruples against taking it.
remain truly,
