years ago, and first commenced work
for the Osborn people after which, he
moved his family to Elk Horn, where
he worked at his trade until coming
to Audubon few years later, and en-
gagged with Mr.. George Hoover.
When the Herseman Brothers offered
their business for sale, Mr.. Jensen saw
the opportunity, and, with others,
soon flung his shingle to the breeze
where it has hung since Mr.. Jensen
has served in this capacity one term
and he asks the denomination for
another term.

Martin N. Esbeck.
Mr.. Martin n. Esbeck is probably
one of the most noted characters pol
itically in Audubon county. Coming
here when quite young he worked in
Audubon for some time and learned
American ways ofdoing things until
he almost lost his identity but Mar
tin was tireless worker, and better
salesman, and more honorable and
congenial man than ever crossed the
Atlantic. He soon discovered that
his business methods were popular
with our people when he. with others,
started a store at Kim ballton, which,
from the first, has been a success.
When his party was all torn up and
over candidate for Recorder, voice
brou. sht Martin Esbeck before the
convention, he was nominated unan-
imously. and when election came, he
was elected by a big majority and
served the county for two years. He
now desires to be a candidate for the
Board Of Supervisors and asks your
support at the primaries June Goth.

TO REPUBLICAN VOTERS
From an article published last week
( am led to believe that Audubon
county has such surplus of funds on
hand that it has become necessary
to place them out at interest. AS q
candidate for the nomination of Coun-
ty Treasurer I am deeply interested
as we'll as surprised that such is the
case. This state of affairs should not
exist and if / am so fortunate as to be
CONNECTED in the future with county
affairs shall use my best endeavol
toward paying all outstanding in.
debtedness of the county at the ear.
Hest possible time and stopping the
payment of interest. [ am then in
favor of reducing the tax levy to s
point where the income is only sufh
Gent to pay running expenses of the
county government under an econ
omic administration. This fact be
Ing very evident that if the county
has, let us say $4,000 surplus, tina
the reduction of taxes by that amour
would mean vastly more to the ta1
payer than would three or four pc
cent derived from that amount. How
ever should the Supervisors at an,
time see fit to place the county fund
at interest, would heartily cooper
ate with them in securing the bes
terms possible.

for the "sports."
Mrs. Charles Talbot was in the
hospital several days last week on &C.
count of an involuntary compulsion
to cease locomotion. Mrs. Talbot is
one of the ceaseless workers, and in
her line of business, that of restaura-
teur, is necessarily obliged to keep
going from very early morn till late
at night. Nature has demanded q
halt that lost energy may be repaired.
Mr.. Gilbert, of Viola township, is
reported to have finished planting
his seventy acres of corn Monday
last. We'll bet cookie, Mr.. Gilbert
has done that before and has had a
sound crop too. While the Goth of
May is the limit for planting, still
were we on the farm again we would
prefer the first five days of May, if
the seed is good. That's eighteen
years experience on an Iowa farm.
In these days of strife between
two great political parties we must re-
member that after all we are Just a
band of brothers here on earth, trav-
elling from the cradle to the grave.
We live side by side, our children at
tend the same school and after the
smoke of the battle has cleared away,
we will still be friends and neighbors.
Let the bitter things go unsaid. AT
best, life is short and we get out of it
full measure of sorrow. Let US in
Audubon live as one big good-natured
family.
