sILYER AT Low PRIcEs.

Bars Sell at 51 8 cents an Ounce, the
 Lowest Since I003. New York Herald.
 Bar silver sold down yesterday to Sig.S cents an ounce in this market, a decline of 3-s cent. The price is the lowest reached since the depression of lpos, when silver bars sold at 2ss-t pence an ounce in London. The cause of the steady decline in silver is due to the absence of purchases from the silver countries.
 Tn India the crop failures last year cut of shipments to that country, and China is not buying as heretofore be- cause of the trade depression. The United States Government. which has been a. steady buyer in recent years, has suspended its purchases because of the abundance of currency.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF AUDUBON COUNTY
AND OF THE TOWN OF AUDUBON.
CHAIRMAN HITCHCOCK

Frank III. Hitchcock is the new chair
man of the Republican National Com
mittee. He managed the Taft cam
paign before the convention and did
it with snap and vigor that was re-
freshing and successful. He is young,
capable, energetic and resourceful.
He was appointed one day and com
menced the campaign the next. Head
quarters will be opened in New York
Denver, Chicago. Nothing will betaken
for granted. An aggressive movement
will be made all along the line. No
state will be abandoned to the enemy
The principles and record of the par
ty will be put to the front; the band
wagon and torch light procession to
the rear. The voice of the orator will
be heard in the land. A school house
campaign will be carried on. A com
plete and thorough organization will
be made. A quiet but effective fight
will be made in every township in
every county. The outlook is bright.
1t will grow brighter every day of the
campaign. Taft and Sherman form a
strong ticket. They will grow stronger
every day from now till November.
Chairman Hitchcock will putup great
fight and win a magnificent victory.

SALOONS AT CARROLL

According to reports most of the
saloons at Carroll run on Sunday,
Decoration Day, Fourth OF July and
all other holidays, paying little or no
attention to the law. Attorney General
Byers has called the bluff on the county
attorney who tries to evade if not en-.
tirely avoid the matter of prosecution
by saying he will bring the case to the
attention of the grand jury. In sec
ond letter from Mr. Byers he says
This is all very well as far as it
goes but why not bring injunction pro
ceedings against these law breakers
and put them out of business? Men
who will continue openly and defiant
~ TO violate the mulctlaw in this state
after being warned time and time again
as they have been In the last year are
not entitled to any further considera.
ton; they should be made to suffer
every penalty that the law provides,
and it is your duty as the public prose
cutor of that county to proceed against
them at once, not only through the
grand jury but by injunction proceed
ings
Section 2406 of the Code was enacted
for the express purpose of putting the
burden of these prosecutions npon the
county attorney and taking it off the
citizens. Under this section you are
given the right to use the name of the
State of Iowa as plaintiff, thus maxi
ing it unnecessary for you to delay
until some citizen is willing to come
forward and sign the information, as
you suggested in your letter.

GREEN For SUPREME JUDGE

1.-THE death of Justice Charles A..
Bishop, of the Supreme Court, causes
a vacancy upon the supreme bench to
be filled by appointment by Governor
Cummius. Since the death of the JUS
tice very much has been said regard
ing various persons suitable to receive
such recognition. Among those most
prominently mentioned is the name of
Judge w. II, Green, of Audubon
Judge Green would make an excellent
justice. He is well versed ia the law,
is methodical and of an analytical
mind so essential to such positions and
his fourteen years experience upon the
district bench qualities him for the du-
ties OF the Supreme Court. Governor
Cummins could make no better APP
pointment than the selection of one of
Western Iowa's most efficient district
judges. The Atlantic Telegraph.
Just what will be done to fill the
place on the Supreme bench made va
cant by the death of Judge Bishop
has not been determined. AS to what
should be done is under consideration
by the Attorney general. The COVER
nor may appoint; the state central
committee may select some one as
candidates; or convention may be
called to make nomination. The
good words for Judge Green are fully
deserved and should he enter the list
he would become strong candidate
II the selection goes to the convention
his friends will present his name and
this district would probably give him
unanimous support.

Above my breast a cleaning knife.

Like a flower choked by filthy weeds,

While my poor soul for freedom pleads

PRESIDENTIAL VOTE

A good many people busy themselves
these hot days making forecasts of the
electoral vote for President at the
coming general election. Among them
is the we'll known and well.informed
" Raymond" correspondent of The
Chicago Tribune. The Electoral Col.
lege has 4S3 votes, making 242 neces-
sary for choice. Raymond "makes
the division about as follows:
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1908-07-23
Total

= . = = % = - .
This division, which we consider a
very liberal one toward Bryan, Taft
would have Two Hundred Nineteen,
and Bryan One Hundred Sixty-six
making it necessary for the former to
gain Twenty three votes and the latter
Seventy-six votes. Should Bryan lose
New York and gain all of the other
doubtful F" states he would still lack
Seventeen votes. Should he gain New
York and Indiana he would yet lack
Twenty-Five votes. So it must be con-
coded that judging from the natural
alignment of the different states as
shown by former elections Judge Taft
has a long lead over Mr.. Bryan. And
we believe that Taft and Sherman will
grow in strength and popularity every
day from now until the election.
