the Washington Post makes the fol-

that the autumn contest is waxing hot
Iowa is calling to the secretary of the

winds blow. His dates have not been

The welkin in Iowa is already ringing
with well-rounded periods from the
choicest of her orators. Her phalanx
of republican congressman have al
ready moved out of their strongholds
and are graphing with unregenerate
democratic foes. In the number are
the mellifluous Cousins and redoubt-
able Pete Hepburn, as fine pair of
congressional spellbinders as can be
found in the length and breadth OF
any western commonwealth.

We hope to see the leaders of Audu-
bon county democracy and their state
leaders get together soon. The for
mer contend national questions, such
as the tariff, are not involved in this
campaign while Sullivan's speeches
are confined almost wholly to attacks
onprotection and the advocacy offree
trade. 1t looks like the democratic
county candidates, seeing the disad-
vantage they would.be under II they
openly advocated the democratic plat
form end democratic doctrines in this
county, are preventing their party
paper from referring to these subjects
as we'll as preventing democratic
speeches from being made in the
county. Their plan is evidently a
still hunt and party principles con-
cealed until after election.

Political Meetings

Several republican meetings are adj
vertised in this issue of the REPUB-
LICAN. The one of the greatest i'm
portance, of course, is the Cummins
meeting for Audubon next Saturday
afternoon. The local committee will
go to considerable work to fill the
court room with chairs so that a much
larger number can be seated there than
usual. People should turn out we'll
and give the Governor royal well
come and big meeting. His speeches
this year are proving very popular
and effective.
Congressman Smith will give Bray
ton perhaps the best meeting it has
ever had. He is very popular through
his service as judge as well as con-
gresham.
Shirley Gilliland lawyer of Glen
wood and nominee for state senator
in Mills and Montgomery, is speak
er of more than ordinary ability and
force and he is a royal good fellow.
Gray will be pleased with him.
w. f. Moore, of Guthrie Center, is
an attorney who is winning a reputa-
tion as a man of ability as a public
speaker.
Mr.. Cosson is developing into
thoughtful and eloquent speaker and
will please the audiences he addresses
The Glee club under the lead OF FL.
Henshall, which was SO popular in
the 1900 campaign, is going to assist
in most of the meetings. This will be
a source OF much attraction.
Chairman Greenwaldt is looking
after the details of the campaign and
is a good chairman. There will be
several other meetings announced for
the closing days of the campaign. Let
every republican help to make them
success.

There is very general approval and
admiration expressed concerning Gov.
Cummins' very able and admirable
opening speech at Des Moines a week
or two ago. The Governor is a mas
ter in the art of clothing his thoughts
in elegant English. His language is
clear and attractive and his argument
able and convincing. Audubon county
people are very fortunate in obtaining
D speech from the Governor as he is
much sought after not only by cities
all over Iowa but from other states.

The statistics of the U. S. Depart
.ment of Agriculture show that in 1880
it required liz cents worth of labor to
produce a bushel of wheat. In 1899,
this was reduced to 81 cents. In 1850,
the time representing the production
of bushel of corn was Al hours. In
1900, it was reduced to "a minutes. This
saving was largely brought about by
the introduction and use of improved
farm machinery. Iowa Ayr. College

very long ago considered the matter and
decided that men could not be members
OF the General Federation of Women's

belong are not admitted to membership
in the General federation. AS all the

will have to be brought up again in the
