Mr.. Jones. who has been sheriff two
terms and who wants to continue to
hold the office, is finding many diff.
culties he never encountered before
Republicans who have helped him
twice with the understanding that two
years ago would be the last time and
who have declined to help him three
times, these he has requested to at least
not do anything against him if they
can't vote for him. He Is making
that request so universal, If you CAM
vote for me-" don't do anything against
me, that the request has lost all its vir
tue. No, the people will not do thing
against "Hamp" except to work and
vote for the other fellow.

BRYAN said at Des Moines, Il do not
know why republican principles should
receive the support of the people any
where. But in Iowa it seems absolute
folly for the;voters to follow such doc
trines." Somebody ought to inform
the gentleman why the people of Iowa
don't take to his principles. Any far
mer, workman, or business man cah
give him his desired information. The
absolute, folly" of our people in re-
naming republican makes of Mr..
Bryan very wise man in his own esti-
nation.

Iowa now has the largest Auditorium
In America built as an Opera House
with the single exception of the Chi
cago Auditorium, which has total

Moines Auditorium is 166!xS4 feet; GA

scenium arch. 40 feet wide; seating
capacity, first floor, 1850; first bal
cony, 1872 second balcony, S73; 26
boxes, seating 6 persons each, 1856;
total seating capacity, 3,06l. The
stage, will seat, in addition, 500 to 800,
and with chairs in the aisles the seat
ing capacity can be increased 400
more. The Metropolitan. the largest
Opera House in New York, seats but
200 people.
The foundation of the Des Moines
Auditorium contains $500 feet of oak
piling and 374 yards of concrete; other
material as follows: 1907, 900 brick
above the foundation, 352 barrels of
cement, 3,027 bushels of lime, 1892
feet of dimension lumber, 10, 700 square
feet of roofing, 1880 feet of other
lumber, 5S,637 pounds of cast-iron col
umns, etc, 52,307 pounds of steel
trusses and beams, and, 1000 yards of
plastering.
This great building was built in just
fifty-tive working days, being one of
the most marvellous undertakings
known in the history of the country.
The seating capacity of Che great
building will be fully tested during
State Fair week, when the Auditorium
is to be properly dedicated. The
greatest attractions ever given in the
Northwest will be witnessed at that
time. Monday evening, August 2sth,
the building will be formerly dedicated
with speeches by the governor of the
state, Hon. L. NJ. Shaw, the mayor of
the city, Hon. John Mac Vicar, and the
president of the Auditorium company,
Hon. A. b. Cummings. These are to
be followed by fine musical program
by some of IOwa's most gifted artists
Tuesday and Thursday evenings,
August Goth and 3lst, will occur the
grand musical festival and jubilee,
with chorus of 800 trained singers
and the full Iowa State Military Band.
This is the greatest combination of
musicians ever seen in Iowa. Wednes-
day, August Both, the travelling men OF
Iowa will have full control Of all events
occurring in Des Moines. Friday
evening, September LIST, the Elks will
hold frolic on the stage of the great
Auditorium. This series of entertain
ments is the greatest that could pos,
sibly be produced. The best talent in
all departments are interested in finish
ing this great building and are donat
ing their service to the cause. In nc
other way could such an aggregation
of the best musicians and actors in
Iowa be gathered together.
The railroads will all hold their ex.
cursion trains until after the close OF
the Auditorium entertainments so that
all who visit the State Fair may also
see the greatest attractions ever given
in the northwest. The committee
which has charge of the events are

We recall to the Advocate a, I'VE
told you so" as to the democratic nom
nation for governor. 1t predicted the
nomination of Cato Sells and said that
no better man could be nominated.
We predicted the nomination of Bashor
or some other Is to l man. The Advo-
cate evidently hoped that the demo-
cratic party would be less radical on
the free silver question. 1t would be
a good thing for the country if that
party would be more reasonable and
conservative, and accept the proofs OF
the experience of recent years that our
currency ON gold basis is abundant
in quantity and equal to all needs, and
and that it is superior to inflated and
cheap money. For the sake OF bust
ness, we also wish democracy would
advocate less dangerous doctrines.

The great similarity between the
democratic and populist platforms in
dictate rather more than an accidental
coincidence. While the more conserv-
ative democrats are congratulating
themselves that the convention refused
to fuse with the populists, they are
now no doubt awaking to the fact that
their refusing to fuse was merely for
NAL. Practically the parties are now
one. The populists got all they de-
manded, that Cato Sells might not be
nominated, that they have place on
the ticket and that the platform indorse

tic prin ciples are now predominant in

BOysen's Candidacy.

Chas. Coe, in the Manning Monitor
speaks of the candidacy and the worth
of Asmus Boysen, republican nominee
for representative of this county, in
the following language.
"Mr. Boysen, of Audubon county,
was in Manning on Tuesday. He has
received the nomination for represen
tative of his county and his friends
claim that there is little or no doubt
but that he will be successful at the
polls this fall. The writer congratu
lates the people OF Audubon county
upon their selection of so good and
competent man as Asmus Boysen
We have known him for the past ter
or twelve years and in our opinion he
is worthy of any honors that might be
bestowed upon him.
Asmus Boysen was born in Denmark
81 years ago, coming to this country il
1886, and to Manning year or two
later. He started out in life poor
boy, but through perseverance ha.
worked himself to the front. Fol
three and half years, before coming
TO America, he was sailor on mer
chant ship, having visited nearly al
parts of the world. In 1889 he wal
married to Miss Anna Leet, at Aurora
Illinois, and to them three children
have been born.
Mr.. Boysen owns and lives on
.4OO-acre ranch, six miles south o.
Manning, in Audubon county. He
also owns considerable real estate il
northern Iowa, southern Minnesots
and other states. He is first-clas'
man and if elected-as the Monitor
hopes he will be-will serve the best
interests of the people of Audubon
comfy

Good citizenship does not demand
endorsement of the present or any
other administration, but common 10y
atty does require that the irretraceable
positions taken and enterprises begun
by order of congress or upon ratifica-

stand unquestioned and unimpeached
by our own people at home and

The nomination of Fred White
creates no enthusiasm among demo
Gratis. He is radical free silver man,
a strong free trader, an advocate OF
doctrines in opposition to capital and
close to socialism, a man out OF touch
and, to considerable extent, out OF
harmony with the progressive ideas
and substantial and practical ways
of the people of this great state. Two
years ago he was beaten by Shaw by
10000 and this year, confronted by his
unfulflled predictions, he can not hope
to do as we'll by 10000 votes.

Congressman Mcpherson tells

Congressman Mcpherson tells a
good story on himself On the morn
ing of convention day he was asked to
move the denomination of Gov. Shaw,
and he Immediately went into com
mittee of the whole thing to pre- pare a
speech that would move the conven'
ton and raise the roof of the new audi
torium. For several hours he toiled
and sweat and produced speech that
was good enough for the supreme
court. Just when the convention had
turned to the order of nominations, u
delegate from our ninth district, whose
ears are deaf to oratory, moved that
nominating speeches be barred,
which the convention approved, and
our congressman's spellbinding effort
went into the waste basket along with
the spring poetry and the letter that
never came. When Mcpherson re-
nominated the governor it was in ster
eotyped phrase and the air of man
who had been previously wronged. -

ed well sustained, if not greater. activ-

the strong cables and smaller receipts.
1t was expected that the market would
open higher than it did; but some of the
smaller local longs took advantage of
the strong situation to lquidate, and
the selling by this class, added to some
outside disposition TO realize. checked
the advance on the opening call at 4 to

lowed. On the whole. the feeling
throughout the session remained bullish.
Without auotable advance the market
for spot cotton showed positive firmness
IN the local market and also in the lead-
ing markets of the cotton belt, which
were from firm at unchanged quota
tons to lSc. higher. There was no let
up in the reports from American spin

couraging present and prospective con-

the afternoon the market was less en-

inclined to take profits, and outside sup
