Pills OF Mss RITTENHOUSE

Last Friday afternoon at Elks' hall
the pupils OF Miss Rittenhouse gave 4
recital which was a success in every
particular. The smoothness and man.
ner in which the program was rem
dered spoke well for the careful and
patient training on the part OF the
teacher. One of the most pleasing
numbers was the mandolin music by
Donald Davis. Fred Snow and Donald
Likens. An unusual feature was the
twelve hand double trio, two pianos) i.
which was played exceedingly we'll.
At the close of the program Mrs. Mer-
riam. on behalf Of the patrons, thank
Cd Miss Rittenhouse for very pleas
ant afternoon and wished to express

DnnWNED WHILE FIol4mG
Ss g AT RENroH WAsHNGTON

a letter received by the Tribune this
morning conveyed the intelligence
that Grover Davis, a former Free
mont county boy, was drowned while
fishing in Cedar river. Renton, WASH.
on June 27.
He was a miner, "a years old. He
was carried 100 yards down the stream
by the swift current and pinned be-
meath a log. At his calls for assistance
two men responded, but they could
not ave him. He had but one arm
but could swim fairly well. but the
swift current was too much for him.
The dead man was the son of Chas.
Davis. formerly of Rockvale, but now
a resident of Renton. There were
quite number of old time Colorado
friends at the funeral.-Florence Tri-

WILL Be NO EXCURSIONS TO
CRIPPLE CREEK THIS SUMMER

1t will be a matter of disappoin4-
ment to many Canon City people to
learn that there will be no Sunday
excursions over the Florence &Cripple
Creek road from this city to Victoe
and Cripple Creek during the current
summer, as has been the case for sew
eral years. There will be excursions
from the district here and return.
but, so far as can be ascertained. none
from here to the district. Last sea-
son there was a regular passenger
train out of this city for the big gold
camp every Sunday morning, but a
readjustment of the time schedule
has resulted in taking 1t away from
here and starting it at the other end
of the line. Excursion trains will be
run from the district to Canon City
and return, but, so far as known. there
will be none in the other direction.

THE JUDICIAL CONVENTION
Woodruff of Mills County, Nominated on
Two Hundred Eighty Fifth Ballot.

Audubon County's delegates To the
Judicial Couvntion held at Council
Bluffs last week had much more of a
time than they had expected They
went out Monday evening and fully
expected they would nominate some
body on Tuesday and get back We'd
nesday morning. But they didn't by
two days and two nights. They had
an old-time convention. There are
nine counties in the district Five had
candidates. Cass, presented Rocka-
fellow; Harrison, Arthur; Mills, Cook
Montgomery, Beeson; Shelby, Guilt
son. The Audubon delegates had no
candidate, and, in sense, no respon-
sibilty. While somewhat divided in
their choice, they stood ready as n
whole to help any candidate who
could muster sufficient strength for a
nomination. So they went the round,
making an effort to boom all of them,
but as it turned out they couldn't
land any one of them. On Wednesday
afternoon, they voted for Woodruff,
the dark horse from Mills, but after u
few ballots his name dropped out of
the list. On Thursday afternoon, on
the 275th ballot, PottawattamiS threw
her full tweuty-eight votes for Wood
ruff, but failed to get much following.
Again on the 2S0th, they tried 10 again
when Audubon Joined them. They
then returned to Rockafellow, for two
or three ballots when they Joined in
leading the stampede for Woodruff
who received 81 votes on the last bal
lot, when his nomination was made
unanimous and the convention adj
iourned. Eugene b. Woodruff, che
nominee, is a prominent attorney of
Glenwood in Mills county, and 81
years of age Judge Green says he is
a capable, upright lawyer and will
make anable and popular Judge. Hon
John Y, Stone, a former attorney-gen-
eral of the state who lives in Glen
wood, says "In intellect and charac-
ter, Mr. Woodruff is all that could be
desired in a Judge. He is well-in-
formed lawyer, one of the best read
lawyers | know of anywhere one Of
the best in Iowa. He has fine legal
mind. His conclusions will he the re-
suit of his honest judgement. When
Judge Macy heard Of the nomination,
he said Eyes, | know Mr.. Woodruff
very well, indeed He has been mem
Der Of the Mills county bar for more
than twenty-five years and is a type OF
the brightest manhood and lawyer
of ability. Everyone who knows him,
knows his honesty and fidelity and
gives him implicit confidence. The
bar and the people Of the Fifteenth
Judicial District are to be congratu-
lated on the choice"

NOW GER BUSY.


Under the above caption, Editor
Hitchcock of the Abel News, and a
former Senator from this district
gives the following good advice which
may we'll be received and acted upon
by Republicans throughout the state;
1t is now time for Iowa Republicans
to go to work. There is no longer any
grounds for quarreling. We are all
Taft and Sherman men. Our state
ticket could hardly be improved. Car
roll and Clarke make great team to
head the ticket and the balance of it
is all good. Iowa Republicans have
adopted sound progressive platform
Upon the issues presented there has
been no party division, The terms
progressive" and "standpatters
never indicated anything as regards
national politics. The standpatters
are for Taft, Carroll and Clarke. SO
are the progressives Questions of
discord in the party have been happily
eliminated. The state platform praises
Allison, Dolliver and the Congression-
al delegation. They have all sup
ported the Roosevelt policies and will
support the Taft policies. The plat
form also praises Gov. Cummins and
gives him much credit He deserves
communication. At the end of his
term he will have been governor lon
ger than any other man in the history
of the state. The record Of his admin
istration is one of which he may just.
ly feel proud. Personally we do not
unreservedly endorse its every act in
detail, but collectively, as a whole it
has been credit to the state and Gov.
Cummins. He has failed in his high
er ambitions but that failure is not
necessarily permanent. Senator Alli'
son will never again be a candidate
for nomination. He may not serve
out the term for which he has just been
, nominated. But in any event it will
not be long until some one else must
take his place. To that vacancy Gov.
Cummins may look with hope Of hav.
| ing the door to his ambition open. II
depends primarily upon how success.
full he may be in winning friends and
in avoiding the making of enemies. In
this he has great opportunity and
the past may direct him toward future
success With nothing to divide the
party and everything to make it har.
monious, Iowa Republicans should
now get busy, drop all factional names
and go to thinking we'll of each other
aud see to it that next November they
pile up nothing less than 900 ma.
jority for every man on the ticket.
