Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1908-05-07

pressed by their vote on United States
Senator at the Primary Election.
JOHN G. BoNwELL.
We find that we were incorrect in
our statement last week that Geo. Nj.
Ross would be the only member to
stand for reelection this year. The
term for which Martin Esbeck was
elected does not expire until the close
| of 1909, but ss there will be no election
in that year Ii become necessary to
choose his successor at the election
this year. So he will be candidate
and will be nominated without any
opposition; and hewill undoubtedly be
reelected for a second term by large
majority.
Rev. McKendree Stahl, pastor of
the Nj. r. church down at Auita, came
up and filled the pulpit of the Audu-
bon M. Il. church last Sunday morn
ing and evening. His sermons were
| pleasing, instructive and edifying,
showing breadth of research and care
full preparation. He is the author of
a beautiful poem entitled "Alone"
written upon the death of his wife a
number OF years ago, which has been
widely copied in the press of the coun-
try. He was entertained while here at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. II. j. Grew
cling.
Cut Flowers for all occasions.

The directors of the County Fair
had a meeting last Saturday when 1t
was decided to erect buildings for the
sheep and chickens and make such re-
pairs as mas be needed. The printing
of the premium list will be done at The
Republican Office, the same as q year
ago, and work will begin just as soon
the committee will furnish the copy. In
order to get it done by July One we
should begin not later than May the
Twentieth.
We are getting returns said one of
our advertisers the other day when he
brought in his copy. We can see it al
most every day. When we advertised
only once in while we could see but
little benefit, but now that we are at 1t
every week we can see marked diff
ference in our favor. Persistent ad-
vertising pays.
For SALE: Good Cottage Organ.

ing will visit Walnut and make an in
spection of that line at an early day.

Have you seen that handsome new
sign beside the entrance of the First
| National Bank? 1t is made Of bronze
and is beauty. The date on it shows
| that the bank was established in 1876:
and it has continued to increase and
grow in strength and favor through
all it's years of history.
Have you seen that fine team OF
! mules bought by the Town of Audubon
from Earl Maharg for Four Hundred
Thirty Dollars? They are we'll match
ed, well broken and dependable. We
| suggest that they be called Bob and
Bent in honor of two of our highly
esteemed city officials.

Mr.. Staley has purchased and re.
ceived a fine new machine that will
mix the cement he uses for sidewalks.

| is said to be much better than the
hand to hand way.
