Glenwood is after the sepublican

no objection to Glenwood wanting the
convention but we do hope Glenwood
will not get it. 1t is almost impossible
to get to Glenwood from the northern
and northeastern counties of the dis,
trict under two days and is miserable
trip at that. The convention should
be on the main line of the Rock Island,
and, in our opinion Council Bluffs is
the proper place to hold it.

"The situation in a nutshell is this:
No candidate will enter the convention
with votes enough by about 100 or $50
to nominate him on the first or second
or even the tenth ballot. The nominee
therefore, will be a second choice man.
Mckinley leads to-day in the matter of
Instructions and will hold this lead.
Allison is the second strongest choice
and will gain in strength sight along.

expressed by James 5. ClarkSOn at st.

further that Gov. Mckinley had SO

K. OF P. SOCIAL.

The Audubon knights of Pythias
lodge gave one of their delightful
socials to the members of the lodge,
and their ladies Wednesday evening.
Promptly at o'clock it was an
nounced that the honorable order of
the Sons of Bagdad had requested the
use of the hall for the evening for the
holding of solemn conclave, and for
the initiation of candidate into the
mysteries of the order of those "Fol.
lowers of the moon," known as the
"Sons OF Bagdad"
The Grand High Tankie Ann, seated
on his regal throne, clothed in all the
barbaric splendOr of the east, assisted
by the Vice Grand High Tankie Ann,
and the IllustriouS BeWhiskered
Prophet of the Universe, with the
grave advice of the Grand Vizier, took
battered, way worn pilgrim, found
wandering in the alleys of Midway"
from darkness to light.
The grotesqueness of the costumes
of the High Tankie Ann and his
retinue gave laughter and amusement
to the guests, and the glorious and
terrible array of dry goods and mil
linery that made up the dress of the
poor and forsaken seeker after wis
dom, as well as the awful trials
and tribulations he was forced to
undergo, moved the hearts of the
onlookers to the deepest pity and
sympathy.
Words fail to describe the humorous
features of the proceedings, nor are we
able to take up and describe the anti cs
of Tankie Ann and his court. The
Arabian Nights and the stories of
Caliph Haroun al Raschid as well as
well as the work Of the famed Princes
of the Orient, were literally drawn onin
setting forth this sample X. P. initia-
ton.
1t would be unjust to our friends the
"Sons of Bagdad," to give their names
and stations in life, but we will say that
circus loving America lost some of the
finest material for ring humorists when
Tankie Ann and his helpers, took to
law. medicine merchandising and bust
ness, and settled in Audubon.
Music and refreshments helped on
the pleasure and enjoyment of the
evening and keep the guests until a
late hour.
The evening was particularly en-
joyable one in every feature, and will
not only be long remembered by those
in attendance, but its possible repeti-
tion in the future will be looked for
ward to with the keenest of anticipa-
tion for pleasure hoped for.
