Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1899-11-02

The Advocate takes exception to our
endorsement of Mr.. Boysen when we
say that Sin reasonable and
conservative way he stands for
all the great principles of the re-
publican party" We said this because
we regarded Mr.. Boysen as q reason
able and conservative man. In say
ing this we also thought we were paying
him deserved and high compliment.
1t appears the Advocates idea of a
party candidate is that he shall be an
unreasonable and radical man. We
have always suspected the editors of
the Advocate and the group of demo-
cratic Office holders that paper repre-
sents, were not reasonable or conser-
vative," and we are not much surprised
that it objects when we apply those
terms to republican candidates. Its
editors fail to conceive how one can be
a good party man and be reasonable
and conservative. 1t is the most
reasonable" thing in the world if they
only comprehended it.

The Advocates suggestion that the
editor of this paper has not been here
long enough to be capable to advise
the people how to vote, is, under the
circumstances, poorly taken. The
editor of this paper is the veteran
newspaper man of the county and sure
ly has the same rights to advocate his
party principles as has the newly
dedged editor of the Advocate.

The Advocate says we need not go in
to Mysteries if the democrats of this
county do not come to us for advice
as to how they shall vote, and it init
mates they will vote as they. please.
The Advocate and it's crowd of states
men have suddenly become very indie
pendent. They may have need of re-
publicans to help them by the time
election day comes.

1t will not be surprize to any who
are at all familirr with the good quail
ties of Chamberlain's cough remedy,
to know that people every where take
pleasure in relating their experience in
the use of that splendid medicine and
in telling of the benefit they have re-
ceiyed from it, of bad colds it has cur
ed, of threatened attacks Of pneumo-
mia it has averted and of the children
it has cured from attacks Of Group and
whOOping cough. 1t is a grand good
medicine. For sale by A. III. Roberts,
druggist.

1t looks strange to see the Advocate
quoting Lincoln now. Its party
traduced and abused him while he
lived. We thank God that we belong
to party that honored that great and
good man while he lived and that did
not have to wait third of century
after his death to recognize his great
ness and the truth of his teachings.
