The PreStOn-..Br0Wn Wedding

Mr.. Don Preston took the train for
the eastern part of the state, Sunday,
Tor little vacation from the arduous
duties of business life. Butsubsequent
events show Aat he had matte rs of
greater moment on his mind, at least
after he left Audubon. Weare inform
ed that a letter from Rev. Doctor COny-
beare, of Cedar Rapids, received here
yesterday brought the interesting
though not unexpected news that on
Monday August II, 1908, MIR. Preston
and Miss Nora l. Brown were united
In marriage at her home down near
Iowa City; and though it is not so stat
ed the probabilities Are that the cere-
mony was performed by the BRIDES
father, the Rev. Mr.. Brown. The
groom is the eldest son of George w.
Preston and is associated with his
father in the grocery business, which
they have conducted for d good many
years. He is active, capable and an
upright young gentleman who has a
high standing in the community. The
bride is young lady of ability and
education, especially so in a musical
way. During the last two years she
has had charge of the music in the
Audubon public schools and has been
chorister at the Presbyterian church.
Mr.. and Mrs. Preston will receive the
congratulations of host of friends
in Audubon when they return here 10
make their home.

Go And Have a Good Time.

If you want an outing this summer
why not 60 to the Interstate Fair,
which will be held at Sioux City, Sep
TENDER ZIP inclusive? We are inform
ed by the management of the fair that
the grounds are being fixed up and
put in condition for the entertainment
of the ever growing and thriving pop
ulation in Sioux City's territory.
The management has recently secured
railroad rates over all roads coming
into Sioux City. The fare will be only
one and half cents per mile, or 3 cts.
per mile return. Tickets may be pur-
chased any time during fair week and
they will be good until Sept IA. The
railroads have. finally given 10 on
their fight against excursion rates since
the two-cent rate went into effect. They
did it reluctantly and it is likely that
there will be excursion rates to Sioux
City for any other occasion than the
Interstate Fair for at least II months.
If, therefore you have some trading
you would like to do in Sioux City it
would be good plan to manage to do
that at the time of the Interstate Fair
and thus save part of the travelling
expense.

Judge Green Endorsed

The undersigned, members of the
Cass County Bar, without regard to
political affiliations, recognize the fit
ness of Judge Green for the Office of
Judge of the Supreme Court, do here
by most cordially endorse his candi-
dacy for that high Office, and we COM
mend him to the people of the State
of Iowa as worthy and we'll qualified
to fill the vacancy caused by the death
of the late Charles A. Bishop, one of
the justices of said court. G. A. Mere
dith, j. B. Rockafellow and all the
other members of the Bar of Cass
County. Referring to this endorse
ment The Atlantic Telegraph says that
Judge Green will doubtless have the
Ninth District solidly for him as Pot
tawattamie has already given him en-
dorsement and this with Audubon and
Cass would seem to give him the dis
trict. The other counties may have
done so also but as to that we are not
at present informed. That he will be
a formidable candidate is generally
conceded for his ability and peculiar
fitness for the place is unquestioned.
The entire western part of Iowa should
be for Judge Green and his candidacy
pushed so vigorous ly as to insure its
Success

w. FL. Doak and family left Audi
bon on Tuesday evening for the state
of Texas where they will make their
home. They have resided here during
"a, pls5 twenty-five years where
they have been prominent in business

Judge Green's Candidacy

Judge w. r. Green, of Audubon,
associate judge in this district, has
formally announced himself candi-
date for the vacancy on the supreme
bench. Judge green has made an ex-
cellent district judge and such an APP
premiership ought to count in filling
vacancies for promotion. Judge Green
is also a man on the peoples side of
the burning political questions which
ought to countfor still more just at this
time with the Lands Grosscup episode
in full view. Geographically no part
of the state is better entitled to the place
than is the section from which Judge
Green comes. There ought to be no
question where Shelby county would
line up so long as Judge Green is in
the race. The Harlan American.

The Riot at Springfield.

The riot at Springfield, Illinois, is
one of the most outrageous and dis
graceful in recent history of this coun-
try. 1t is another evidence that many
people take liberty for license and are
ready at the first suggestion or pro-
vocation to lead or join in riot for
the destruction of life or property.
Because one negro committed crime,
the whites determined by arson and
murder to drive all of them from the
city. The city is in charge of the Ma
tional Guard. Governor Deneen makes
the following statement:
"The outbreak of mob violence was
as intolerable as it is inexcusable. The
idea of wreaking vengence upon race
for the crimes of one of its members is
utterly repugnant to all notions of law
and Justice. No government can main
tain it's self-respect and permit it. The
entire resources of the state will be
drawn upon, If necessary, to protect
every citizen OF Springfield in his per-
son and property, and those who vio-
late the law must suffer the conse-
quences.

difficulty with the Ute band was the
subject Of a conference at the White
House, and the decision was reached
to continue in this case the policy Of
the Indian bureau of furnishing the
red men opportunity to work and in
case Of their failure to take advantage
Of the opportunity to leave them to
their own resources. The belligerent
Utes put their case thus: "On our res
ervation we heap hungry. No food.
Woman and papOose die because. We
no go back. We fight first till all
dead" But if the Utes were hungry
it was partly because of their own i'm
providence, and the government gave
them the chance to work for their ra-
lions. In negotiating with the disaf-
fected Utes the government agents
were aided by the old Sioux chief
American Horse, who counseled the
discontinued warriors to heed the ad-
vice Of their white brothers and leave
the warpath.
The government has made up its
mind that 1t is no real kindness to the
red man to continue indefinitely the
policy Of supporting him in idleness;
hence the adoption of the plan of allot-
ting land in severalty to the Indians
and preparing them for the duties of
citizenship. 1t is proceeding upon the
assumption that the Indian is a desir-
able parsonage when he gives up an
idle, roaming life, earns his bread by
the sweat of his brow like any other
man and ceases to be a ward of the
nation.
Commissioner Leupp and those of
the administration who sympathize
with his views believe in the future of
the Indian and are convinced that the
best kindness the government can
show to the red man is to help him to
take up the white mans burden and
cease to be a nomad. AS the reserva-
lions are broken up the red men as in
dividuals are allotted land ample for
their support, provided they make use
Of the same methods for its cultiva-
ton that the white man uses. In line
with this plan is what the government
is doing for the Indian through the
reclamation service. Nearly $1000,000
has been expended In irrigation on the
Crow reservation in Montana, for
which the Crow Indians furnished
funds and the common labor necessary
for prosecuting the work. About $780,
600 Is to be expended in providing the
Pimas OF the ella river reservation In
Arizona with a proper water supply,
and 100000 has been appropriated by
congress for the irrigation Of the al
totments made to the Ute Indians of
tho former Uintah reservation, and IT.
rigation canals are being built there as
Fast as possible. Among the Zunis OF
New Mexico, the Shoshone and Arapa-
hoe Indians of Wyoming and the south
ern California Indians similar work is
IN progress, and the labor is being per-
formed largely by the red men them
selves, while thousands of others may
be found employed at white mems
work for white mems wages on the
ranches and railroads of the vast south
west and IL Is generally admitted that,
- rule, they make good workmen.

IN MEMORY OF DOCTOR NASH
The Son Makes Contribution In Memory
Of His Father

John A. Nash, Esquire, prominent
lawyer of Audubon, Iowa, has con-
tributed 81 100000 toward new puild-
ing for Des Moines College. The faith
err of Mr.. Nash, kindly known for a
generation in Des Moines as Father
Nash, - was the founder of Des Moines
College. In the beginning it was call
ed the Baptist College," but the
name was broadened and the institu-
tior that has had so many struggles
is now on the high road to success
and prosperity. Mr.. Nash, he who
makes the contribution, was born and
brought up in this city. His contribu-
tion is remembrance which represents
affection. 1t is also a contribution in
honor of his father-The Des Moines
Canital
