Of the court, but only the witnesses, law
yers and reporters were admitted.
A detachment Of police OF considerable
strength maintained order. Rubno replied
volubly to all interrogations and whenever
he uttered the word anarchy he raised
his voice as though exulting in his con-
nection herewith.
The prisoner bitterly assailed modern So
ciety as the cause Of all evil. declaring
he only attempted to take the life OF the
king because the latter was the highest
representative Of society.
Rubino added that he had intended going
to Italy for the purpose Of making an at
tempt on the Italian monarch, but he did
not have sufficient funds. During the pris-
oner's examination 1t developed that he
left the Italian army because his officers
prosecuted him.
The prosecution included in the indict-
newspaper publisher in London, justifying
the murder of Senior Canovas del Castillo,
the Spanish premier, and stating that he
(Rubino) had contemplated killing King
Edward November 25.

Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1903-05-21

The Sioux City Journal published
the picture of every good looking edi-
tor in the state of Iowa, and from
those pictures it is possible now to
strike an average and conceive the
appearance of the type. Later that
enterprising paper took up the dist
riot judges of the state and the series
is now running through it's daily
edition. One may conceive of the
judicial type now, and compare the
typical judge with the typical editor.
The typical editor is several years
younger, has less aviopdupois, and
as Burrell puts it, carries less of him
self in front. The editor is more par
ticular about the cut of his hair, his
neck wear and the fit of his clothes.
The judge has the bigger head, but he
has less hair on it; and in q contest
for beauty we believe the editor would
carry off the honors. 1t is possible
that the Journal may have some good
looking judges to bring the rear; but
to date the average editor is better
looking man than the average Judge.

Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1903-05-21

The Cass County Democrat says,
"the democrats of Audubon county
have the chance of their lives to re-
store Audubon county to the demo-
cratic column. The Democrat has
had "the chance of it's life" good
many time to ''restore Cass county to
the democratic column" but it hasn't
profited much by it's chance. Cass
county and southwestern Iowa goes on
being republican pretty regularly,
the strenuous efforts of the Democrat
Notwithstanding. The editor of the
Democrat has doubtless been reading
the Advocate and is led to think that
those republicans who failed to get
their favorites nominated will be
ready to help the democratic party.
Audubon county republicans are not
that kind of fellows. They, may be
disappointed in conventions, but sup
porting the decrepit, laundering and
gone-wrong old democratic party is
another proposition.
