Financial Report.

The financial report of the county,
printed in pamphlet form, has been In
the hands of the county auditor since
the first of the week. 1t is there for
| distribution and any one interested is
invited to call and get a copy. II is
| printed in compliance with the new law
requiring report to be published each
year showing the expenses of the
county for different purposes.
There has been considerable contro-
versy about this subject. When the
law was enacted many thought it UNI
necessary. AT the state convention of
county supervisors at Davenport last
winter it was the prevailing sentiment
| that 1t was not needed and many de-
| clared they would be in no hurry
about complying with it, because il
| contained practically no information
to the public except what Is published
| in the proceedings of the board OF
supervisors and in the published re-
ports of the county officers. On ex-
animation Of this report this is evident,
| except the information is more con-
| densed and less itimized. The super
visors over the state as well as those
here generally thought its publication
| unnecessary expense to the county.
The Advocate raised clamor here for
the publication. The board then con-
cluded to publish it. The job was let
to bids. The Advocate bid S94,5O, the
REPUBLICAN $500 and the Extra
Journal bid $500 getting the job.
This report complies with the law in
every respect so far as we have OBJ
served. 1t is much more complete
than the reports from several of the
surrounding counties, copies of which
are at the auditors Office. No infor-
nation is given out by it more than
already had been in the published
proceedings and reports, and the
county has $500 more to pay because
of the ofiiciousness of one, II. G.
Spencer. Mr.. Spencer has accused
the board of concealing and covering
up and has said the report would be
incomplete and would not be publish
ed till after election, all of which
statements are untrue in every par
| ticular.
The report speaks the truth as have
the proceedings. Nothing in county
| business has been concealed at any
time. Nothing could be concealed.

The Cummins Meeting.

Last Saturday Audubon entertained
Governor A. b. Cummins and the
people of the town and county listened
to one of his mastery addresses.
The Governor arrived on the Rock
| Island and was met by committee
and taken to the Park hotel where,
during the forenoon, he met number
of our citizens. He was entertained
for dinner at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Ed Van Gorder. Mrs. Van
| Gorder, in her girlhood, was play
mate and friend of the Governors
daughter, the families being neighbors.
The court room was unusually well
seated and decorated. The room was
crowded to its utmost capacity. The
Audubon brass band furnished music
on the street. The ladies' quartette
consisting of Mesdames Ed Bilharz,
A. l.. Brooks, Ed Freeman and w.
w. Smith gave few OF their selec-
tions, as did also the male quartette
consisting of Messrs. Henshall, Booth
Rachel and Carmichael. The Chairman
had called Geo. w. Cosson to preside
and he introduced Gov. Cummins in
speech of remarkable originality. Mr..
Cosson is winning attention by his
powers of analysis and ability as

the three forces In political life, revo-
luton, evolution and fossilization,
that the republican party was party
of evolution and that the democratic
party was first swayed toward revolu-
tion and then toward fossilization,
| attracted much attention.
Gov. Cummins is an able orator.
He has the physical requirements,
strength, grace, voice and manner.
He has the sense of fairness. He
grants his opponent all he deserves,
and treats him with chivalry Cum
Minis is logical. His address has
reason in it. It's construction is good.
Taken as whole it has accumulative
force, and Is convincing. His argu-
ment for protection shows the great
benefits that have come to us under
that policy. The speech he made Sat
urday was largely on the lines Of the
published speech two weeks ago. The
| delivery of it here was of much benefit
to the republican party in this county.
There were people in the audience from
every township in the county. II was
one of the most successful meetings
the party has had for years.

this company has granted an eight

the highest wage paid in Colorado

The inference to be drawn, however,
Is very plain and may be summed up
in the conclusion that not alone is an
eIght-hOur day for Colorado smelters
asked for, but that this concession, if
II could be granted, would only be pre-
iminary to a demand for a ten and
twelve-hour wage for such eight-hour
day"
Ar. Guiterman then enumerates the
conditions which preclude, he says, the
granting of the smeltermen's request.
the principal OF which IS the steady
lowering of grades of smelling ores
Prl 1uc'td IN Che f1cadville. Creole and
aspen mining districts.
s To accede to the request for an eight
hour day. he says, would mean the
serious cTippling of either the smelling
or the mining Industries in this state.
neither of which contingencies can be
faced with indifference or COM
placeHcy."
