Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1903-02-05

Balzac was once asked by a French
publisher to write an article on the
Rue Richelieu. He named his terms,
which today would not seem excessive,
but the publisher considered them out
rageous, whereupon BalZac replied:
IF am to describe the Rue Richelieu
in way worthy of the street and of
myself. | must know it thoroughly.
and must not upon any account fail
to investigate all that specially char
acterizes it. shall have to COM
mence by lunching at the Cafe Cardi-
nal. then must buy gum and cravat
pin at the two shops next door to
each other. After that | must go to
the tailor's at the corner of the Rue
st. Marc" "Oh, don't go any
further than that" interrupted the
publisher in alarm; "you would come
to the Indian shop next, and things
there are fabulous price"

During an engagement in the Trans
vaal war, General De Wet was amused
by Jew who came up to a burgher
who was lying behind stone on a
piece OF ground where powders were
scarce. Sell me that stone for half
a-crown," whined the Jew. Get Quit"
the Boer cried; Il want 1t myself"
Il will give you fifteen shillings," in
sisted the Jew. De Wet adds that al
though the Boer had never before pos
sessed anything that had risen in
value with such surprising rapidity, at
that moment he was anything but
ready to drive bargain with the Jew,
and without any hesitation he posi-
lively declined to do business.

rick's day.
The cars manisiestO is becOm-
ing to be looked upon as a sort Of
bunco circular.
The magazine writer who wrote
an article on the character Of
Chicago" had his nerve along
with him.
It is dollars to buffalo chips
that the mothers congress soon to
convene, will have more old maids
in IL than married women.
A number Of candidates in this
county are now figuring on adopt
ing the balloon mode Of lOcOmOtiOn,
II the mud does not soon dry up.
Ex.GOv. Francis Presidential
boom seems to have been launched
just in time to slide into the raging
overflow Of the Mississippi river.
The President Is announced to
start out on his extended tour Of
explanation on the first Of next
month, bat perhaps this is only
an April fool joke.
A man recently travelled four
thousand miles to get to New York
city to have a tooth pulled. That
fellow was determined to get to q
city with a pull right.
The threat Of the President to
call an extraordinary session Of
congress is indeed enough to
brighten the people. The last one
was extraordinary enough for all
the practical demands OF the pub
lie.
st. Patrick's day was not OBJ
served as generally in this section
as in most portions of this and
other countries, this year. Fact
is there are not many "Micks'' in
these parts, and the green is not
often worn, except by a very few,
and they only fad it.
Western debating societies are
arranging for the discussion Of the
quetion in the near future: ERE
solved, that 1t would be hard for
the President to find a nimrOd's
tool that shoots backward with
more fatal potency than does that
organ on his frontispiece called a
month";"
They are now tapping the
Mississippi river for dropsey.
The breaks in the levies seem to
stop the river from rising, but
they will cause the thousands Of
farmers whose lands have been
flooded to rise early for many
months to come to catch even on
their losses.
The cry for tariff reform is be-
ing again launched. A better
way, In the candid judgment OF
many, is a few reforms in the
selection Of men who are RESPONSE
BILE for the tariff as a whole. The
man who is afraid to declare for
absolute free trade will never Sc
cure much Of any kind Of reform
in the tariff or anything else.
The two party machines are
fighting it out hard in Chicago,
and il the truth must be told it
don't look as though it would
make much difference to the tax
payers which wins, for experience
has shown that both organizations
are In the hands Of men who don't
give the rights or interests Of those
who bear the burdens Of govern
ment a thought. Thus machine
pa~rtisanship pushes the public
over the embankment and does
about as 1t pleases. Some day
the people may assert their rights,
bat it looks as though by the time
the day arrives when this win be
done, that there win be little il
anything left to contend for.
