AT the State Convention of County
Cosson, County Attorney of Audubon
County, gave utterance to thought
in line with the views of Gov. Folk,
of Missouri, when he said, '.The prose-
cutor who amounts to anything will
not wait for some timid soul to swear
out information. He will be willing to
take the initiative, to accept the full
responsibility of his Office, and COM
mence and prosecute his cases without
apologizing to anyone. l have a feel
ing of contempt for the prosecuting at
torney who virtually begs the law
breaker for permission to prosecute
him, offers apologies for his conduct,
and gives the criminal to understand
that while officially he disapproves,
personally he approves"
Is it not about time for the people to
awake to the fact that the false position
with reference to their duties assumed
by the officials charged with law en-
torcement is responsible for a large pro-
portion of the law breaking?
The County attorney or peace officer
who is unwilling to do his duty as the
law requires is MORALLY bound to re-
sign and let someone hold the office
who has the courage to be true to his
oath. In this day when men who do
their duty courageously are so much in
demand that they are gaining public
prominence thereby, let the minor off
Gals in various parts of the state of
Iowa take courage and be men.
Ii that Audubon County Attorney
is carrying out the principles he advo-
Gates with courage and strength, he
will be heard of in higher places unless
the present moral awakening is but a
temporary wave. 1t is u healthy SEN
timent which demands that public
officials treat their offices as something
different from n private grant obtained
as u political privilege
The officials in such offices who does
his duty ought to be sustained at the
polls by all good citizens, regardless OF
party. The other kind of citizens, re-
gardless of party, will remember him.
10 this extent the Sun favors indie
pendence in politics. Sac City i1owa)
Sun.
Our county attorney has been prac-
ticing exactly what he advocated. He
has placed in the county treasury in
fines and penalties more than enough
to pay his salary and the expenses OF
his office. So far as we can learn this
has never been done before i'll the his,
tory of the county. He has been very
successful in his prosecutions anC
never shirks his responsibility. We
agree with the Sun that such an Off
Ger is entitled to the support of gooC
citizens regardless of party.

Policy Holders Of German Of Freeport

In view of the fact that some COM
peting companies and agents are per-
slstently and continuously flooding
this territory with anonymous circu-
lars and statements sent through the
mails or otherwise. which they dare
not and are not willing to sign, and
realizing that our Policy Holders are
at all times entitled to the facts, de-
sire to submit the following true state
ment of facts:.-
The German Insurance Company of
Freeport, Illinois, has already paid
81 ,O57, 79l.30 on San Francisco losses
and we have sufficient funds in var
ious banks all available on moments
notice, to pay all honest and legiti.
mate claims there or elsewhere AT 100
CENTS ON THE DOLLAR.
70 show you that our plan of settle
ment of the balance of our San Fran
cisco losses Is right and fair, l desire
to state that the plan has been APP
proved by all the Associated Savings
Banks of San Francisco and also the
Policy Holders League or Association
OF San Francisco and is being approx
ed by the Policy Holders themselves
who are depositing their receipted
Policies with the Associated Banks
every day, and as soon as all claim
ants, or nearly so, file their Policies
and Receipts with the Consolidated
Depository Banks, their claims will
be paid, and it is my honest judgment
that at the very latest day ali losses of
the German Insurance Company of
Freeport, Illinois, will be settled and
paid by November, 10th, 1906, that be-
ing the final day for making such de-
po.it on said plan.
L want to impress the fact upon each
and every Policy Holder of the Old
and Reliable German of Freeport, II.
linois, that his policy is just as good
as q Government Bond for the
amount of any loss that he may have,
and if he has loss we will settle il
with him promptly at 100 centson the
dollar just the same as we have been
doing, right here in this territory fol
over thirty years, as well as every.
where else. Do not believe the false
reports made to you by others, but il
you want any further information, OF
If you have a loss, call upon or write
me or the Agent of the German In
surance Company who wrote YOU
business and 1 assure you that yor
will receive fair, square and satisfac
tory treatment. am proud of hav
ing been citizen of Cass county, Ia
about twenty. eight years and 1 trus
and believe the above statement sign
ed by me should and will receiv,
more favorable consideration thar
statements which are so false tha
parties making them are unwilling tt
and dare not sign their names tt
them. Very Respectfully,

To My FRIENDS AND VOTERS OF
AUDUBON COUNTY: I wish to ex-
press my regret of being unable to
make personal canvas for the office
of County Supervisor as intended
three months ago. I had the misfor-
tune of getting my hands and arm
severely burned while drawing turpen-
tine at 10 o'clock p. m. 1 lit match to
see the measure, holding as supposed
at safe distance but the accumulated
gas in the barrel ignited and to save
the store and goods, took the burning
turpentine measure to carry it out in
the street. The burning fluid splitting
over my hands and arm, burned the
skin off entirely and many places into
the flesh. / saved the store and am
almost well but the cold weather and
driving is hard on me yet, therefore I
appeal for your kind support and con-
sideration at the coming election and
if elected | will serve you honestly and
to the best of my ability.
Yours truly,
MARTIN N. ESBECK

BARS G. A. R. BURIAL RITUAL

Dubuque Priest Will Not Consent to
Service at Veterans Funeral.
Dubuque, Oct. 26.-The use of the
G. A. r. ritual was forbidden by the
Rev. Father Murphy at the funeral of
John Byrne, civil war veteran, at
st. Raphael's cathedral. The local
post thereupon decided not to attend
the services in body.
Rector Carey, who has charge OF
the cathedral during the absence of
Archbishop Keane, is now on con-
firmation tour and could not be
reached.
1t is the first time in the history of
the local cathedral that a patriotic or
der was denied the right to use its
service book in funeral ceremony
A committee will visit the archbishop
on his return and ascertain if this pol
lev is to be continued.

Senator McLaurin then presented an
amendment prohibiting greater charges
for short than for long hauls, and
Senator Daniel moved a substitute to
cover the situation in Virginia. Both
Senators spoke in support of their re-
spective provisions Sand McLaurin en-
tered upon general criticism OF the
Presidents course in connection with
the rate BILL
He declared that the President had
entirely changed his position and pre-
dicted the production OF a new song
to be known as "Roosevelt's Sur
render" and to be sung to the tune
OF "Bonaparte's Retreat" True, he
said, the President Is a fighter; nor
did he quit fighting after his surrender.
On the contrary. he continued the con-
f1ict after going over to the enemy.
Daniels substitute was then voted

NEED MILLION
FOR new YEAR
Works Board Commissioners
Are Hard at Work
on Estimates.
Inspectors of Chimneys Will
Commence on Task
Next Monday,

The Board Of Public Works met
yesterday and discussed the various
estimates for next years expenses.
The total amount for which an ap-
preparation will be asked will be in
excess Of $1.000,o0o. This sum will. If
allowed, be spent in an endeavor to get
that portion Of San Francisco owned
by the public into somewhere near
the shape 1t was before the disaster.
The sum Of $263,0oo is needed to re-
pair what is left of the municipal
buildings and pay the officials. About
$4,000 is necessary for salaries in
the main Office OF the board. The City
Engineer wanted 100000, but his es-
Innate will eventually be cut mate
rally. The sewer system is esti-
mated to need 100000 for repairs by
the superintendent, but that amount
is deemed wholly inadequate by Pres
ident Maestretti. 1t is expected that
the figures will be revised today.
The Works Board will not be able
to start on the inspection Of chimneys
until Monday. The supply Of water is
so meager and intermittent at pres
ent that there is not the slightest
need Of haste. More inspectors are
wanted. Applications may be filed
with the president Of the board.
The different bureaus Of the de-
partment were directed to send In
tabulated lists Of the property lost
through the catastrophe and also
what supplies are indispensable to
the work for the ensuing year. The
board decided that no person could
erect even a temporary one-story
building without complying with the
plumbing and drainage ordinances.
The Police Department is requested
to see that this regulation is adhered
to.
The complaint of Captain Gray that
the men on duty at the Fourth-st street
bridge are impudent without cause
was found groundless 1t appeared
from the evidence adduced by the ac-
cused that the tongues Of steamship
and tugboat captains have seemed
unduly sharp since the big shake. The
men at the bridge only replied in kind
1t is apparent that things seem more
blue around the bridge than in front
