AS may be seen by locals, the Col
umbian club will soon again open
their lecture course with one of the
best musicals ever given to the people.
II the club did nothing more than to
have this lecture course they would do
a great thing for the people of Audu-
bon. The educative features are worth
all the time they spend in urging peo-
pie to attend. But people by this time
should need no urging to attend. They
should Jump at the opportunity. 1t is
rare. Few towns have as good talent
either in music or lecture to come to it.
All the young peaple at least should
be present at every number for there
is always something learned.

Another election has come and gone.
It has been most remarkable one In
many respects. The apathy before
election, from which no amount of or
atory could arouse The people, was be-
yond the power Of politicians to COM
prehend and the amazing land slide
for Roosevelt was surprise even to
Republicans. It is but another DEM
onseration that the people can't be
fooled with, and too, demonstration
that no candidate can afford to stoop
to personalities and the attacking of
the personal character of his opponents.
| The sweeping victory, however, is
due largely to the followers of Bryan
preferring Roosevelt to Parker and
does not mean that they will remain
! in the Republican ranks. The increas-
ed vote of the socialists shows that
many fell into line with them. The
leaders of all parties are even now
looking into the future figuring how
] to get glory from defeat or rewards fol
victory.

raphy of Senator George Graham Vest, dur
ing his tenure of office, was one of the
briefest in the Congressional Directory. 1t
reflected the characteristic modesty of the
man who wrote it for the compilers of the
legislative directory, and epitome OF
a neventful and active career it may be
reproduced:
George Graham Vest democrat OF
Sweet Springs. Mo, was born at Frank
fort, KY, December 6. 1920; graduated at
Center College, Kentucky, in 1S4S, and in
the law department of Pennsylvania Uni
versity, at Lexington, KY, in 1853; removed
the same year to Missouri and began the
practice of law in the central part of that
state; was a member of the Missouri house
of representatives 1860 81 was elected to the
United States Senate in the place of James
Shields, democrat (who had been elected to
fill the vacancy caused by the death OF
Lewis V. Bogy, democrat; took his seat
March IS. 1879; was reelected in 1885, 1896
and 1897.
His term expired March 3. 1903. He had
announced in advance of that time that the
date in question would mark his retiremen,
from public life. Increasing age and phys
ical weakness brought about the determi-
of so many years standing. Senator Vest
was beloved by the people of Missouri, and
his seat in the Senate was sacred to him
as long as he desired to keep it.
Mr.. Vest retired after twentyfour years
of distinguished service. When he came to
the Senate in 1879 he found there as col

Tailor Put Up Notice in Window That
 Candidate Hadn't Paid.

New York, Nov 5.--Alfred Levin, a tailor of No 22O7 Seventh avenue, aI- most precipitated riot Thursday evening by displaying a sign in his window to the effect that one of the republican candidates in that district had not paid for the clothes on his back.
 The sign attracted widespread atten- ton, and the fact was conveyed to the republican district headquarters. Ennis saries from there were sent on the run to the tailor shop. Levin insisted that what the sign stated was true. Sey- eral angry republicans then endeav- ored to tear the sign down, but were stopped by the tailor
 ''Tt's all settled now" said Levin to a reporter yesterday. "rhe bill has been paid and shall not put up the sign any more"
